First edition of this exceedingly rare geotechnical report for a Pacific Power & Light Co. proposed nuclear power plant to have been constructed at West Roosevelt Washington along the edge of Lake Umatilla in the Columbia River Gorge as part of a group of similar nuclear power plants with the proposed Trojan Nuclear Power plant licensed to run beginning in 1976 at 1100 Megawatts. PP&L together with PG&E had previously examined 2 sites near Arlington OR but then shifted to this site near the Columbia River down from the Hanford Sites later developed for the WPPSS projects. Included are five borings for subsurface conditions 3 borings in the landslide areas geophysical survey to depth of 229 feet geologic mapping of faults stratigraphy and assessment of ground motion. The Slope Stability and Aerial Geological survey results were included in a later separate report by Dr. Rick Kienle.Several nuclear power plants had been proposed and received geotechnical studies in the Pacific Northwest following up the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant constructed upon the site of the former Trojan Powder Co. plant site as well as adjacent properties beginning in 1967.

PGE chose to build a pressurized water reactor plant and the enormous plant and huge construction cost were projected at the time to be cheaper than coal-fired power plants to supplement the massive hydropower presence in the PNW. Oregon Governor Tom McCall established the first Nuclear Siting Task Force of the Nuclear Development Coordinating Committee in 1969 in order to approve location of nuclear power plants consistent with Oregon’s environmental protections as well as comply with the forthcoming Clean Air Act passed in 1970.

First edition of this very scarce original safety analyses reports for Portland General Electric’s pair of nuclear power plants to have been constructed at Pebble Springs in Gilliam County Oregon as part of a group with the proposed Trojan Nuclear Power plant licensed to run beginning in 1976 at 1100 Megawatts. These nuclear power plants had been proposed and begun development soon after construction began at the Trojan Nuclear Power Plant and by 1979 over $ 250 million had been spent by the State of Oregon and PGE on development costs. The two reactors would have been located 3 miles southeast of the Columbia River would have consisted of a Nuclear Steam System for each plant with a Reactor Coolant System supplied by Babcock & Wilcox square lattice reactor cores and abundant auxiliary systems. These reports include a myriad of updates carried out during the regulatory review of the project and the preliminary development work but after passage in 1980 of Ballot Measure 7 by Oregon voters no nuclear power plants could be considered for construction unless there was a Federal high-level waste repository and approval by Oregon voters.

Pp. 873-1024 textillustr. a. 1 plate. Entire issue offered. Chadwick & Bieler's paper: pp. 923-940 textillustr. First printingof this milestone paper in which the strong nuclear forces are mentioned for the first time."It was only in 1921 that Chadwick had first shown that at very small distances the interactions of alpha particles with the atomic nucleus did not follow exactly the inverse square law predicted from the repulsion of their positive electrical scharges. Chadwick concluded that his experiments showed that these nuclear forces are of "very great intensity". According to Pais this is THE FIRST PUBLISHED STATEMENT ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF A STRONG NUCLEAR FORCE. This 'new force' interpretation was disputed untill well into 1920s."Hey & Walters."In any event Chadwick and Bieler's final conclusion avoid all reference to a possible electromagnetic cause for the deviations from the simple theory: "The present experiments do not seem to throw any light on the nature of the law of variation of the forces at the seat of an electric charge but merely show that the forces are of very great intensity. It is our task to find some field of force which will reproduce these effects." I consider this statement made in 1921 as marking the birth of the strong interaction."Pais in "Inward Bound" p. 240. unknown

This work marks a new epoch in the understanding of the nature of nuclear physics. "After the discovery of thorium in 1900 new concepts of atomic structure followed from the brilliant experiments of Rutherford. A new theory of atomic disentegration was proposed then the nuclear nature of the atom. He discovered and named alpha and beta rays emitted from radioactive salts and predicted that disintegration of some radioactive elements would generate helium. he also produced in the laboratory the first artificial transmutation of one element into another."

Volume #I Parts 1 and 2 is in a three-ring binder with 25 tabbed sections. William Clark was the Chairman of the Blue Ribbon Task Group. This report was submitted in compliance with Section 1632 of the Department of Defense Authorization Act 1985 Public Law 98-525 and Executive Order 12499 of January 18 1985. The Task Group addressed procedures used by the Departments of Defense and Energy in establishing requirements and providing resources for the research development testing production surveillance and retirement of nuclear weapons. Members of the Task Group included James Schlesinger Former Secretary of Energy and Defense Former Chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission Harold Agnew former Director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory Jeane Kirkpatrick Former Ambassador to the United Nations and William Perry Former Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering. A second copy of Tab R laid in with meeting agenda . A second copy of Tab S laid in. This mass of information is approximately 3 inches thick. "The President established by Executive Order 12499 the Blue Ribbon Task Group on Nuclear Weapons Program Management at the direction of the Congress to address fiscal accountability and discipline in the nation's nuclear weapons program. The Task Group was asked to ''examine the procedures used by DOD Department of Defense and DOE Department of Energy in establishing requirements for and providing resources for the research development testing production surveillance and retirement of nuclear weapons'' and to recommend any needed change in coordination budgeting or management procedures. The Task Group was also asked to address ''whether DOD should assume the responsibility for funding current DOE weapon activities and material production programs.'' The Task Group found that the present relationship between DOD and DOE for managing the nuclear weapons program is sound. Accordingly the Task Group sought a process for improving the integrated determination of nuclear weapon requirements and the management of nuclear weapon production."
