Needs in civil engineering aspects are reviewed and catalogued in a report developed by the Power Division Research Committee and first presented by panels at a Specialty Conference at the University of Washington Pullman, Washington in September, 1968. A series of panel reports covers optimal development of resources, fuels and air quality control, water quality control, used and disposal of wastes, safety and security of power plants, and also pumped storage, and test facilities. Three appendices present abstracts of the luncheon speeches, the program of events and presentations, and a list of attendees and of contributors.
