  DESCRIPTION  Records created and maintained by Joseph A. 
               Lenhard, an AEC Oak Ridge employee. Lenhard was a 
               health physicist who was employed by the Biology 
               Branch of  the Oak Ridge Operations Office 
               Research Division. In 1967, Lenhard became 
               Director of the Oak Ridge Safety Division, and 
               later served as Director of the Safety and  
               Environmental Control Division. The files document 
               effluent and other pollution control, compliance 
               with environmental protection laws, occupational 
               health and safety,  fire protection, waste

               correspondence with other AEC officials and with 
               Oak  Ridge contractors.
