SPECIAL SESSION OF SYMPOSIUM ON RADIOACTIVE WASTE MANAGEMENT John Moore, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, and S. V. Topp, Savannah River Laboratory, will preside over a topical session on the pressing and controversial problems confronting radioactive waste management. This session will be held Thursday afternoon, November 20, 1980, from 2-5 p.m. in the Copley Plaza Hotel Ballroom. The featured speakers and their topics are: - Clean-up Problems at Three Mile Island, R. E. Brooksbank, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN - Activities of the State Planning Council on Low-level Radioactive Waste Management, John Stucker, Executive Director, State Planning Council, Washington, DC - EPA's Environmental Standards for Management and Disposal of High Level Radioactive Waste, Daniel J. Egan, Jr., Environmental Protection Agency, Washington, DC
MRS SYMPOSIUM PROCEEDINGS: PUBLICATION AGREEMENT WITH ELSEVIER-NORTH HOLLAND The 1980 Annual Meeting marks the inception of a society program which will result in the publication of a uniformly formatted series of MRS Symposium Proceedings. The series, which is to be published by Elsevier-North Holland, will consist of
individually numbered volumes, each of which will contain the proceedings of a single symposium. With one exception, all MRS symposia approved for publication by the councillors will be included in the series. The symposium on the Scientific Basis for Nuclear Waste Management, which has previously instituted a successful proceedings series and an established readership, will continue to publish its proceedings through Plenum Press. In the past, proceedings of selected symposia have been published on an individual basis. These volumes have been very well received and constitute a valuable record of current activity in the materials sciences. The continuing positive reception of these proceedings has established a solid basis for future publication and has led the officers and councillors of the Society to institute a more consolidated publication program. A publication committee organized by H. J. Leamy of Bell Laboratories held discussions with several prominent science publishers, ultimately selecting Elsevier-North Holland, which has a major publishing effort in the materials science field. The series will be marketed worldwide, and should find its way into every major technical library. Initial titles in the series include: •
Laser and Electron-Beam Solid Interactions and Materials Processing Editors: J. F. Gibbons, L. D. Hess, and T. W. Sigmon • Defects in Semiconductors Editors: J. Narayan and T. Y. Tan • Nuclear and Electron Resonance Spectroscopies Applied to Materials Science Editors: E. N. Kaufmann and G. K. Shenoy The aim of this program is to ease the organizational and editorial effort required of proceedings editors, as well as to consistently produce high quality publications with which the Society will be identified.
