A Note on Information Sources 106 BIBLIOGRAPHY A Note on Information Sources Various types of materials were used in preparing this history. At the outset, an extensive computer search of the Department of Energy (DOE) library, including the data base at the Oak Ridge Laboratory, revealed that the type of technical reports there would not be helpful in developing this history. Pri­ marily, three other sources of information were relied upon: materials from DOE Archives, which were identified and assembled by Roger Anders of DOE's History Division; the data bases of the Library of Congress, which led to a review of newspapers, periodicals, technical journals, and books; and inter­ views. Three classes of information were used: technical events and developments, institutional developments, and related events in the milieu. The five categories of materials used are discussed below. Printed reports and government documents were used to identify particular facts about the RTGs and the program. Some of the materials provided relevant facts covering broad time periods; other sources pinpointed narrow time periods and revealed program status at a time, or presented important decisions or statements relevant to the program. A few of the materials focused on particular aspects of the program. Books and pamphlets provided a breadth and depth of understanding. Several stand out for an understanding of the technology and the broad and changing issues of the time period covered: the historical documents about the AEC, ERDA, and the DOE, and the energy chronology produced by the history staff of DOE (Buck, Dean, and Holl) were invaluable in succinctly presenting relevant events in the institutional environment. The work on radioisotopic power generation by Corliss and Harvey was a valuable primer in the technology. For background on the times and glimpses of the views of top-level scientists and adminisfrators, the cited books by Seaborg, Webb, Killian, Kistiakowsky, and Levine were profitable. The Newell book also proved helpful in tracing the history of NASA. Detailed information on specific space missions was found in several NASA documents on Apollo, Viking, and Bibliography 107 Voyager; the books by Washburn added an emotional dimension. The books by Rolph and Ford aided in understanding the changing milieu at the time the AEC was disbanded. Articles from newspapers, periodicals, and technical journals were used to obtain insights into the changing technical, political, and social milieu during the period covered by the history. The articles used in the text are presented in chronological order since the chronology of changing foci and issues was most significant to the history. All of the newspaper articles came from the DOE archives: "Other Articles" cited were uncovered in a topical search for specific facts. Unpublished materials encompass a number of different types of items uncovered during the research, ranging from documents prepared by program participants, such as Mike Dix and Tom Kerr, to remarks of key functionaries on particular occasions. It is possible that some of this may have been published at a later date. It should be noted that archives materials were extremely helpful throughout the research and writing of this history. "Letters", "memos", and "news releases" are not cited in the Bibliography although they are cited with full dates in the chapter notes; such materials were invaluable in obtaining insight into day-by-day issues discussed and acted upon by key administrators during particular time periods. They were most numerous in the archives for the AEC years but much less so for ERDA and DOE. Interviews were emphasized throughout the research, to preserve an oral history of the program on tape. All interviewees were cooperative, helpful, and for the most part eager to share their recollections. Some are now retired but made themselves available for interviews; others took time from busy work schedules to be interviewed. The list of those interviewed represents coverage of differing but important perspectives on and involvements in the program. 108 Printed Reports and Government Documents Bennett, Gary L., James J.

This policy transition was controversial, causing friction with U.S. allies, with the nuclear power industry, and with Congress. Early in his presidential campaign, Carter criticized the excessive federal financial commitment to developing plutonium-based reactors and adopted the view that the weapons proliferation risks of plutonium economy technologies were serious and needed to be addressed.

In the course of these NRC inspection activities, violations of regulatory requirements may be discovered. The NRC screens these violations of regulatory requirements using the significance determination process (SDP).

Memorial Tributes: Volume 13 ROBERT C. SEAMANS, JR. 1918–2008 Elected in 1968 “For engineering design and development of airborne systems; technical leadership in the nation’s space program.” BY SHEILA E. WIDNALL ROBERT C. SEAMANS, JR. one of the nation’s outstanding engineering leaders, senior administrator for several federal agencies, and former president of NAE, died on June 28, 2008, at the age of 89. Associate administrator, then associate and deputy administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) from 1960 to 1968, Dr. Seamans helped lead the nation’s space program from its infancy to its triumphant Apollo successes. He was secretary of the Air Force from 1969 until 1973 and became president of NAE in 1973. In 1974, he became the fi rst administrator of the Energy Research and Development Administration (ERDA), predecessor to the U.S. Department of Energy. Robert Seamans was born on October 30, 1918, in Salem, Massachusetts. He attended Lenox School, in Lenox, Massachusetts, and earned a B.S. in engineering from Harvard in 1939, an M.S. in aeronautics and astronautics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 1942, and a D.S. in instrumentation from MIT in 1951. As part of his doctoral work, he assisted Charles Stark Draper, a pioneer in gyroscope guidance, in developing tracking systems that enabled Navy ships to target enemy planes. Those systems were later used for missile navigation and eventually to guide Apollo astronauts to the Moon.

  • Mr. Harold Finger NETS-2011 Honorary General Chair
    Mr. Harold Finger NETS-2011 Honorary General Chair Harold B. Finger has been working as an independent consultant since his retirement in May 1991 from the U.S. Council for Energy Awareness, where he served as President and CEO since January 1983. He is consulting in energy policy and programs, space systems and programs, urban development and housing issues, and government management working with government, industry, and non- profit organizations. Mr. Finger received a BS Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the City College of New York in 1944 and an MS in Aeronautical Engineering from the Case Institute of Technology in 1950. In 1957-1958, he also had special training in Nuclear Engineering at NASA’s predecessor, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) Lewis Flight Propulsion Laboratory in Cleveland, Ohio. After graduating from the City College in 1944, Mr. Finger joined the NACA as an Aeronautical Research Scientist responsible for aircraft engine and compressor and turbine research. He held increasingly responsible positions and in October 1958, when the National Aeronautics and Space Administration was established, he was asked to come to Washington to lead NASA’s space power and nuclear energy programs. From 1960-67, he managed the newly established Space Nuclear Propulsion Office, a joint office of the Atomic Energy Commission and NASA, responsible for nuclear rocket propulsion development while also serving as Director of NASA’s Space Power and Nuclear Systems. (He’ll be discussing the accomplishments of those programs in providing a capability for deep space exploration in the opening session of the 2011 NETS Program.) In 1965, he was also appointed Director of the AEC’s Space Nuclear Systems Division including responsibility for radioisotope and reactor power systems.

Among other lessons, it teaches us the reasons that the government adopted the programs that constitute the current housing policy landscape. The political strategies that succeeded in the past illuminate the possibilities for winning approval for and enacting new policies today. In recent American history, four crises related to housing led the United States government to initiate large-scale housing programs for low-and moderate-income Americans.
