This year’s Nominating Committee included Scott Kirk (Chair), Eric Goldin and Joseph Nardi. Bill Kennedy (former HPS Board Liaison to the Section) mentioned that our current Board Liaison, Craig Little, was not able to attend the Section meeting. Kennedy suggested that President Chapman draft a letter to Keith Dinger, Scientific & Public Issues Committee to offer the Decommissioning Section’s expertise to the HPS on decommissioning-related issues. Kennedy also mentioned that the Decommissioning Section would be asked to provide input on the HPS 2010 Strategic Plan. Eric Abelquist (Past President of Section) mentioned that the HPS Midyear meeting in Orlando 2002 has decommissioning as its theme, and that the Decommissioning Section should sponsor a technical session at this meeting. Greg Komp of the Symposia Committee should be contacted to express the Section’s interest in sponsoring a session. Additional suggestions for future Section activities were proposed including: 1) adding a Guest Book to the web site, 2) getting more members involved with maintaining the web site, 3) developing decommissioning-related position papers. The meeting was closed at approximately 12:30 PM.
