\(,l)l(v 1 Advisory Group Meeting I would like to propose that we discuss the organization and responsibilities of those ASEV segments supporting programs on Enewetak on the afternoon of the 5 June without anv staff observers. That since DOES appears to be represented at our meetings * ‘ Environmental Program of DBER should be invited to attend in the same function. Vic Nelson would like the names and Social Security numbers of all people: DOE, Advisory Group and others (EG&G?) as soon as possible. Vic Noshkin should be informed if the attendees want accommodations. LLL gets a good discount at the Holiday Inn. The Advisory Group’s time plus travel is going to be significant. I think that you should require funding from Hal Hollister to cover say 15-20 days and travel for each member. I don’t see why this should be required to impact DMC or Program Office budgets.
