For the past two years, measurements have been performed with a watt balance at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) to determine the Planck constant. A detailed analysis of these measurements and their uncertainties has led to the value $h=6.626\,069\,79(30)\times 10^{-34}\,$J$\,$s. The relative standard uncertainty is $ 45\times 10^{-9}$. This result is $141\times 10^{-9}$ fractionally higher than $h_{90}$. Here $h_{90}$ is the conventional value of the Planck constant given by $h_{90}\equiv 4 /( K_{\mathrm{J-90}}^2R_{\mathrm{K-90}})$, where $K_{\mathrm{J-90}}$ and $R_{\mathrm{K-90}}$ denote the conventional values of the Josephson and von Klitzing constants, respectively.
