INTERACTIONS OF THE NAEG INFORMATION CENTER
WITH OTHER PROJECTS

ABSTRACT

In the past year, the Information Support Project to the Nevada Applied Ecology
Group (NAEIC) has interacted with many other research projects on the transuranics and other radionuclides.
Group interactions through symposiums,
workshops, and responding to search requests have proven to be mutually beneficial.
The NAEIC will draw on the information resources of the Oak Ridge

National Laboratory to produce a bibliography of the radionuclides (other than
the transuranics) of interest to the Nevada Test Site.

PROGRESS

The major objective of the Information Support Project to the Nevada Applied
Ecology Group (NAEIC) is to inform NAEG contractors of all the developments

and techniques in their areas of interest.

In the past year, the NAEIC has,

the transuranics and other radionuclides.

Mutual benefits arising from these

while pursuing this objective,

interacted with many other research projects on

interactions have accrued to both groups, especially in the case of conference
and workshop interactions.
The staff of the NAEIC has relayed to the appropriate NAEG contractor, as often as possible, the information gained at conferences.
We inform the NAEG contractor when we hear about a presentation at
a meeting or a study being done that seems to coincide with the contractor's
interests. We either send the contractor a preprint of the presentation or we
offer to send the pertinent information so that the NAEG contractor can contact
other researchers in his field.
In the process of providing the most up-to-date
information, we have found all NAEG researchers did not receive announcements
