And the prospects for 1969 are for continued stability. It is not likely that any diedown in the war would come in time to set machinery in action to release new research funding for the Idaho station. But if the wars end did come early in 1969, it Is speculated, both the AEC and Congress might be in more of a flexible mood on research programming. The Idaho AEC stations construction program has dropped for fiscal 1939 and is down $13.5 million for the current fiscal year. But the permanent operating program has been insulated from cutbacks elsewhere over the nation. This is mostly because the station harbors four of basic and indispensable AEC research programs. Looking ahead to 1969, W. L. Ginkel, manager of the AECs Idaho Operations Office, explains it this way: The stations major assignments involve four of the term commissions long programs: reactor materials testing, reactor safety, fast breeder reactor development (a reactor that produces more fuel than it uses) and naval propulsion. These programs within the have priority AECs overall program. Barring unforseen adverse devel- are assuming test responsibilities. But as 1968 came to a close, plans were afoot to the worlds original test reactor into a new research role, servicing universities, private industry and foundations for specialized research work. Already such organizations as the Federation of Western States and the Western Governors Conference have approved resolutions promising support and asking the AEC to schedule the reactor for this new role. The Idaho Legislature is being asked to provide new opments, prospects are favorable for continued stability of operations at the station.. The new year will also likely see the first step in a precedent making restyling of a major reactor at the station. The materials testing reactor is expected to be pushed out for traditional materials testing work in 1970. A new funds Idaho advanced test test reactor and an engineering test reactor which would allow State University and the University of Idaho to identify for the first time in research programs utilizing the reactor. The AEC, Idaho Nuclear Corp., the Idaho Nuclear Energy Commission and the new Eastern Idaho Nuclear Industrial Council are cooperating to provide the West with one of the most versatile research facilities in the nuclear field. The Eastern Idaho Nuclear Industrial Council is expected to become an important agent in 1969s nucleonics research into atomic structures). The organization, composed of representatives from communities over East Idaho, is already forging an active program in advancing both government and private industrial development. The new year may also be the beginning of an effort to seat a new nuclear science center in Idaho Falls. Although no formula has been worked out as yet, members of both the Idaho Falls Nuclear Science Center committee and the Eastern Idaho Nuclear Industrial Council are proceeding on the premise that if a building is provided that the AEC will provide exhibits and maintain it. The city of Idaho Fallas has already provided an eight-acr- e site just off a highway on the west side of the city to accommodate the center. It would not only be a tourist attraction but also an of instrument for education secondary and college stu- dents. The reactor station has not been successful in seating a continuing space research program, but efforts will be renewed to establish special credentials of the reactor to forward even some research nuclear research.
