  DESCRIPTION  The series consists of minutes for Commission 
               Meetings 1 1807 and for a few unofficial meetings, 
               as well as indexes to the meeting minutes. Minutes 
               contain summaries  relating to general policy or 
               other matters brought up for discussion; policy 
               decisions  are recorded. Subjects dealt with in 
               minutes relate broadly to the AEC's origins,  
               structure and administration, functions, and 
               programs. More specifically, they concern  such 
               matters as budgetary planning, biomedical 
               programs, the fallout controversy,  Project 
               Sunshine, research programs, reactor development, 
               nuclear fuel production,  military applications of 
               atomic energy, weapons testing, facility 
               construction, security  matters, and health and 
               safety concerns. They were compiled by the 
               Secretary to the  Atomic Energy Commission to 
               record policy decisions on virtually all subjects 
               coming  before the AEC commissioners. The series 
               consists of meeting minutes arranged in  
               chronological order by formal meeting number. 
               Collection number E 19.
