3. APPENDIXES

3.1. ORGANIZATION OF THE NATIONAL BUREAU OF STANDARDS*

[The Bureau is headed by a Director who is appointed by the President with Senate confirmation. The Director is assisted by a Deputy Director, who is responsible for internal operations. Several Associate Directors participate in the leadership function, coordinating related technical work across division lines, heading important policy committees, and handling special assignments in a staff capacity. One of the Associate Directors, in addition to being responsible for administration and support activities of a continuing nature, is in charge of an extensive special project-planning for the Bureau's new laboratories which are being constructed at Gaithersburg, Maryland. In charge of the Boulder Laboratories is a Director who also has the status of Associate Director of the Bureau. Program activities are conducted in 22 scientific divisions. Most divisions correspond roughly to a major field of physical science or engineering, and are divided into sections responsible for technical areas within each field. Sixteen of the divisions are located in Washington and six in Boulder. Below the section level, the staff is organized into project groups which may be easily regrouped.]
