LIAISON DIVISION
The Liaison Division is the primary inter-
face between CES and two communities-the
general public, and those governmental agen-
cies and public officials concerned with
energy research. This division has the dual
responsibiliby of assisting with energy policy
analysis and promoting a better understanding
of the complexities of energy.
The liaison director analyzes legislation
and other important occurrences relevant to
the Center's research program and brings
broad-based governmental expertise to the
nontechnical aspects of most Center research
projects. The director is integrally involved in
policy analysis processes both for the Center's
programs as a whole and individually in those
research projects wherein policy analysis is a
definable research activity. Projects in this
category include the California Nuclear Initia-
tive Study, the assessment of the national
Energy Research and Development Adminis-
tration program, and an analysis of Texas
nuclear power alternatives.
The coordinator of public information
works with the liaison director to provide
timely energy information to the public con-
cerning general energy subjects in the broad
sense and the work of CES and the University
in particular. Specific projects under the coor-
dinator's direction include:
" A newsletter distributed to a unique
energy-involved group of approx-
imately 1,300 individuals in govern-
ment, academia, industry, and related
fields.
" Planning and staff assistance for the
energy briefing series sponsored by
the Energy Information Service (in-
cluding the advent of wide publica-
tion of the series, and videotaping and
disseminating a closed circuit version).
" Providing answers and resource assis-
tance for specific energy questions
from the public in a letter-answering
program.The liaison directorate has made
especially significant progress in increasing
the general public's awareness of Center ac-
tivities and of energy in general. Both the
liaison director and coordinator of public in-
formation respond to direct requests from the
media, from governmental representatives,
and others to provide both written and verbal
information on all aspects of CES work.4
