Environmental Marine Biological Laboratory (Dr. Helfrich). 2. Lawrence Liveymore Laboratory (Dr. Noshkin). 3. University of Washington Laboratory of Radiation Ecology (Dr. Seymour). Please note each of these three estimates cover identical items for use by all three Users, in particular the laboratory trailer, the berthing trailer and certain items of the special equipment. In this jight it is Streenan's opinion and recommendation that rather than outfit the LCU with separate trailers and componente for each of the three Users, that they he consolidated and made ef common use for each of the Users. This should reduce the estimates considerably and the overall cost of outfitting the LCU. Also it is suggested that the berthing trailer be obtained through excess channels. As Streenan recalls there may be bunk trailers available from NV assets. Streenan aleo strongly recommends that e meeting be held with the four Users to attempt to consolidate all requirements, and to assure that the LCU is outfitted to fulfill all their needs. Such a meeting could be held either in Las Vegas or Honolulu.
