Among the topics discussed are: How Reactors Work; Reactor Design; Research, Teaching, and Materials Testing; Reactors (Research, Teaching and Materials); Production Reactors; Reactors for Electric Power…

Herricks Public School District has adopted an energy conservation program that establishes an energy consumption baseline and makes recommendations to modify systems and operational procedures. (Author/MLF)

Presented is information necessary to an electric utility company and electrical equipment manufacturer to ensure the proper combination of motor and starting equipment in a water-utility facility. (CS)

A discussion of the hazards and possible solutions to the hazards of extra-high-voltage (EHV) electrical power lines are presented. (MDR)

Considers the issue of information as a freely shared resource or a commodity for sale, and discusses a disagreement between OCLC and the State of Wisconsin, which recently adopted resolutions supporting free access to data in all forms if they are provided by publicly supported bodies. (MES)

Examines efforts of the Research Libraries Group to use RLIN (Research Libraries Information Network) to support cooperative and individual member library preservation activities. Areas covered include enhancements to make item-specific microform information available and efforts to code information on the physical condition of materials. (30…

State leaders and school officials must understand that the intermediate and long-term implications of the energy crisis for education are much different from the current or short-term problems. Acting on that basis, they may be able to turn some of the potential difficulties into real benefits. (Author)

This is the third, concluding, part of an article on the Greater Chicago Tunnel and Reservoir Plan (TARP). It focuses on the hydrologic and hydraulic studies which controlled the sizing of tunnels, storage reservoirs and pumping stations, and on the resulting pumping station and reservoir. (BB)

Provides technology educators with an overview of the electric utility industry and present and future developments in energy technology. Discusses the process of teaching about energy in technology education programs. (SK)

Pacific Gas and Electric's employee involvement program aggressively focuses on customer service, performance measurement tied to management bonuses, and commitment to change in the organizational culture. (SK)

The possibility that electric and magnetic field radiation poses a health hazard should be recognized during the planning and designing of a school. A preconstruction assessment of possible exposure should be evaluated before the start of construction. (MLF)

Examines the development of a campus energy-monitoring system and three energy strategies to help control energy costs in a deregulated environment. Strategies discussed involve purchasing off-campus electric energy, modifying power-plant technology, and considering third-party ownership of the power plant. (GR)
