Special Report No. 76-01: Proceedings of the 1974 NCASI Southern and West Coast Regional Meetings

An important element in the National Council's information transfer program is our annual series of regional meetings. These are organized in great measure by our Northeast, Southern, Central-Lake States and West Coast Region staffs and as a result reflect in their content a blend of program content focusing on regional interests and developments as well as subjects of national importance. The meetings normally consist of a general session followed by a series of concurrent sessions focusing on a specific problem or program area. The meetings are designed to bring the latest information together on specific subjects and therefore result in program material ranging from complete technical papers to oral discussions reflecting work still in progress. Attached you will find the first in a series of special reports providing materials assembled in connection with these meetings, covering in this instance the Southern and West Coast Regional Meetings held in 1974. Three additional reports are now in preparation covering the same meetings in 1975 and the Northeast and Central-Lake States Regional Meetings held in 1974 and 1975.
