CONCLUSIONS
9.
It is concluded that:
a. An Official Observer Program for Operation
REDWING is necessary and feasible,
b. The personnel listed in Appendix "B" should
be invited by AEC to participate as Official Observers; and
ce. The program recommended by the DOD (AEC 787/17)
is acceptable to AEC provided that:
(1) The AEC is allocated 60 observer spaces
in lieu of the 50 presently proposed;
(2) The DOD submits specific proposals for
joint determination of the shot or shots to be
observed by UK~Canadian observers, the extent
of information to be imparted under the provi-
sions of Section 144b of the Atomic Energy Act
of 1954, and the measures to be taken to limit
the dissemination of information to that agreed
upon,
(3) The restriction on public information
personnel attendance is removed.
(The matter
of news media representation is being dealt with
separately.)
