This suggestion is to study the feasibility of a computer controlled cortmunications link between NRC and reactors or shi~ppers of SNM. The system might consist of an NRC command and control center with a communications link that automatically receives data from operating reactors and shiopers of SNM. I first conceived of this in early 1976 after reading of cornunications problems at Brown's Ferry during the fire. I understand that the cormunications system has improved but still requires someone on the scene initiating the action by " picking up a phone."
The system I an proposing would not require human interaction.
A memo describing this system in more detail is attached.
