  • Hourly Integrated Peak In 1950, Foster Wheeler Corporation and the Pioneer Service & Engineering Company entered into a contract with the Atomic Energy Commission to stud.v the feasibility of utilisir.g r.uclear energy for the generation of electric power. As a client of Pioneer Service & Engineering Company, Applicant participated in a number of con-ferences dealing with these studies. Two of Applicant's engineers obtained "Q" clearances so that they could receive classified information relating to the fcas-ibility studies.

In 1955, Applicant, Minneapolis Honeywell Regulator Company and General Mills, Inc.

organised the Minnesota Nuclear Operations Group which includes in its membership the University of Minnesota and nineteen additional najor manufacturing firms. The purpose of the Group has been to promote the use of nuclear energy in Minnesota. A major project of the Minnesota Nuclear Operations Group has been to give the University of Minnesota a gamma irradiation facility.

To this end, the Group raised among its members about $70,000 with which the University has constructed a 1,000 curie facility which was put in service in 1957 Also, the group has been assisting the State of Minnesota in drafting legislation for the regulation of radiation hazards.

In 1955, Applicant also joined with Otter Tail Power Company, Minnkota Power Co-operative, Inc. and Central Power Cooperative, Inc. (the latter two incorporated in North Dakota) in making a gift of $100,000 payable $20,000 per year, to enable the University of Minnesota to use nuclear materials in agricultural research. -

'.:.e staff for the Monticello Nuclear Generating Plar.t will be drawn from the Pathfinder crew and crews of other production plants of Applicant. A training program will be initiated to train the staff utilizing the Pathfinder Plant and if it is deemed desir-atle, other facilities including those of the General Electric Company at San Jose and '/allecitos, California.

In order to prote,.t the health and safety of the public and plant personnel, standards and procedures will be maintained in compliance with the regulations in CFR Title 10, Chapter 1, Part 20.
