in preparing these charts were furnished by participating organizations. a. DEFINITIONS 13.9 Fig. 3-12 shows the relation of the cost of support services performed for test organizations to the number of scientific personnel at EPG. This chart reflects an increase in support requirements with an increase in scientific personnel as the test period is approached, and a corresponding Definitions of the major cost categories are aa follows: EXPENDABLE TEST CONSTRUCTION includes all costs of towers, scientific stations, and other facilities, including temporary camps, constructed in test areas subject to damage or destruction during operations, and those scientific structures in non-test areas that are constructed for a particular operation. decrease in support requirements and scientific personnel subsequent to the test period. b. 13.7. TEST SITE OPERATIONSinclude all costs incurred in the maintenance and operation of the test site, such as maintenance, operation of facilities, and support services provided to participating test organizations on a Special Work Orderbasis. Fig. 3-13 shows the trend of costs for maintenance and operation in relation to the total population trend, as the test period is approached and passed. TECHNICAL SUPPORT SERVICES (shown as a line item under Test Site Operations) include all costs incurred by organizations, other than scientific participants sponsoring tests, in technical support offullscale tests. Such costs cover but are not limited to timing and firing; fire-ball and cloud formation photography; yield determinations; measurement of reaction history; radiological services; meteorological services; and microbarograph studies. Test Planning and Evaluation, shown as Category 3810 on the cost reports of REDWINGandprevious operations, has been discontinued as a budget and accounting cate- gory for Scientific Contractors and is not includ- ed in Fig. 3-10. Costs of this activity, totaling $14,040,469, (incurred costs plus the estimated costs to complete) are shown detailed byscientific program andproject in the Consolidated AEC Test Cost Report — Operation HARDTACK as of 31 July 1958, in accordance with JTF-Seven cost reporting procedures. 13.8 The total cost reflected on Fig. 3-10 includes actual cost with estimates to complete as of the dates and during the periods shown in the footnote.
