Integrated Thermal Treatment Systems study: US Department of Energy Internal Review Panel report

ABSTRACT This paper reviews the main conclusions and recommendations of Canada's 1990 Public Review Panel Report on Tanker Safety and Marine Spills Response Capability concerning oil spill response, as well as the subsequent assessment of various policy options leading to the selection of a government/industry partnership. The framework for marine spill response in Canada was established by legislation in amendments to the Canada Shipping Act. A variety of issues have been raised during consultations in relation to the areas of risk, the equipment needs for responding in a tiered fashion to a 10,000 metric ton spill, the personnel requirements and their training and exercise requirements, the management structure, the fee structures and the role of the advisory councils.

AbstractThe Department of Energy’s Council on Materials Science convened a Panel charged with assessing the present scientific understanding of epitaxial growth and identifying fruitful research opportunities in this area. The Panel, chaired by Paul S. Peercy, a member of the Department of Energy’s Council on Materials Science and of the Solid State Sciences Committee, was composed of scientists in materials science, physics, and chemistry from academia, government labs and industry. Panel members were: Ernst G. Bauer, Brian W. Dodson, Daniel J. Ehrlich, Leonard C. Feldman, C. Peter Flynn, Michael W. Geis, James P. Harbison, Richard J. Matyi, Pierre M. Petroff, Paul S. Peercy, Julia M. Phillips, Gerald B. Stringfellow and Andrew Zangwill. The Panel met in January, 1989; its activities were supported by the Materials Sciences Division of Basic Energy Sciences. Deliberations emphasized artificially structured materials and resulted in a Panel Report which has been submitted to the Journal of Materials Research.
