MAY MEMORANDUM FOR:
James P. Knight, Assistant Director for Components and Structural Engineering, DE FROM:
Robert E. Jackson, Chief Geosciences Branch, DE
SUBJECT:
ACRS - EXTREME EXTERNAL PHENOMENA MEETING IN LOS ANGELES IwouldliketonotemyobjecticatosendingonlyoneindiYidualtoa meeting which discusses so many important. seismic question of significance to the way we will do business in the future. This meeting shculd have the best representation possible including NRC BC's, AD's, and Division Directors. We have sought the noted Sequoyah meeting for a year and I believe that this topic, the SSSP topic,.and the minimum "g" value topic absolutely require management attendance.
In my view it is totally unreason-able that such a meeting be held without attendance by cognizant responsible NRC staff. In addition, the rest of the staff should be able to at least hear the discussions.
LeonReiteris',oeoftwoseismologistscurrentlyahailableforallprol%t work..His preparation and. travel for this meeting will severely impact his review of SEP sites, Humboldt Bay,.and. SONGS 1, 2 & 3 as well as recruiting. I request that the necessary actions be taken to either m.ve the meeting to D.C. or postpone it indefinitely until travel restrictions are lifted. At the cresent time, I will not plan 'ca send Dr. Reiter ta thir meeting.
