This report describes EG&G activities in support of the NTO Test Cell A Program for February 1966. Details with respect to the various tasks included in our scope of work are discussed in succeeding sections and appendices. At Test Cell A, the NRX/EST test series continued with the performance of Experimental Plans IIA, IIB, and IIC. EG&G personnel maintained the test cell instrumentation and controls systems in a run condition and added new channels for the next experimental plan. This will be the last publication of the monthly EG&G/NTO progress report. The contractual agreements of the EG&G Electronics Support Services contract require a monthly technical and fiscal report. Reporting shall be in the following categories: (1) TCC; (2) TCA; (3) ETS-1; (4) R&E MAD Buildings; (5) Common Operational Support; (6) Miscellaneous; and (7) Central Support Shops. In addition EG&G will submit a weekly highlight report to SNPO-N with distribution to the users.

This document presents a survey of the EG&G NRDS photographic operation in four major sections and includes the work scope, procedures, some technical backgrounding and operational information. Two sections, Instrumentation and Photo Systems, include the areas of direct responsibilities while a section on Film Handling and Coordination and a section covering special information, pertinent to the project, are included to adequately complete this survey. The photographic group is housed in two trailers within the control point area at NRDS and from these trailers provides photographic support at a number of locations. Four camera bunkers, three camera towers, a kinescope system, a microfilm system and remote camera controls comprise the facilities that the group maintains and operates outside these trailers. The work load includes major items such as: motion picture coverage of the nuclear rocket engine tests, data record microfilming, kinescope recording, and documentary coverage of the company related operational responsibilities. In addition, a number of minor photographic services are extended, when required. The nature of the work, because of its importance within the research and development efforts at NRDS, requires optimum quality and efficiency throughout. The many procedures outlined here have been designed to satisfy these requirements.
