... . His areas of focus include initiation and technical management of research and development involving waste management, nuclear fuel cycles, transportation, conservation, and renewable energy.
From page 477...
... His principal accomplishments include his Ph.D. thesis that was the first to advocate quantitative risk assessments for nuclear power plants, building the first team to perform the initial comprehensive and quantitative risk assessment for the commercial nuclear power industry, being a major contributor to the methods employed in risk analysis, and a prime mover in elevating risk assessment to a science and engineering discipline.

... Before coming to CEBAF, he worked at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory as accelerator group leader for the SuperHILAC-Bevatron/Bevalac Operation and Development, associate director for the Accelerator and Fusion Research Division, and the deputy director of General Sciences. He has also served on a number of committees, including the Nuclear Science Advisory Committee in 1983-1984, High Energy Physics Advisory Panel, Division of Physics of Beams of the American Physical Society, of which he was chair in 1993' and the Los Alamo s AT Division Advisory Committee.
From page 479...
... He specializes in nuclear system design, nuclear fuel design, radioactive waste management, and nuclear operations. He recently retired from the Westinghouse Electric Corporation, where over a period of years he served as general manager of the Nuclear Technology Division, of the Nuclear Fuel Division, and of the Advanced Power Systems Business Unit.
From page 480...
... In previous years, he was assistant director for reactor engineering and then deputy director of the former Atomic Energy Commission's Reactor Development Division. Among awards received during his career are the Secretary of the Navy Commendation Medal, the title of Distinguished Alumnus of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the highest award of the Senior Executive Service.
From page 481...
... His extensive nuclear industry experience, including 27 years with Bechtel, covers the hill range of nuclear fuel cycle and nuclear decontamination activities' as well as fast breeder reactor and light-water reactor plant designs. A graduate of the University of California at Berkeley in engineering physics, he also received an M.S.
From page 482...
... His major research interests are in molten salt chemistry, electrochemistry, and electroanalytical chemistry, particularly in pulse voltammetric methods. He has received several awards for his work including the American Chemical Society Division of Analytical Chemistry Award in Electrochemistry and the Electrochemical Society's Physical Electrochemistry Division Max Bredig Award in Molten Salt Chemistry.
