151508 -
151509 - I advised of having made a change in the CSB organization chart, see
151510 - ref OF 9 line 10, to support Tom's submisson to DE, per discussion
151511 - with Max on 970501, ref SDS 11 4886 and ref SDS 11 8852.

151518 - Tom indicated Max is focused at this time on changes to information
151519 - flow proposed by DE that may have impacts on organizational structure
151520 - of CON OPS.  Ideas seem to have been put forward for the Regulatory
151521 - branch, which is part of CON OPS, to report to the Deputy District

151523 - only new construction reporting to Chief CON OPS.

151525 - Max mentioned yesterday that these possible organizational changes
151526 - may need support from Communication Metrics, ref SDS 11 8852.

251010 - Meeting with Luster and Welch - Checkpoint 1
251011 -
251012 - We considered Tom facilitating a meeting between Welch and Luster.
251013 -
251014 - Tom plans to call Rich Estes to see how he is doing on evaluating the
251015 - Communication Metrics report, ref DRP 1 line 15, and the scope under
251016 - Task Order 2, ref OF 7 line 19.  We considered having Rich submit
251017 - written comments on the report and Task Order to establish he has
251018 - invested some time to review these materials.  Discussed the
251019 - difficulty people have actually understanding Communication Metrics
251020 - until they gain experience with it, per COE's report, ref DRP 1 line
251021 - 174.
251022 -
251023 - Tom noted he has been thinking about setting up the meeting called for
251024 - by checkpoint 1 under Task Order 1, ref OF 1 line 384.  He will visit
251025 - with Max today about scheduling this next step.
251026 -
251027 - Tom advised there has been discussion that Max wants someone else to
251028 - develop the final terms of Task Order 1 and 2 with Luster.
251029 -
251030 - We considered the advantage of Tom providing transitional support for
251031 - the person who performs this task for Max, since that person will have
251032 - no background with Communciation Metrics, nor the formulation of the
251033 - Task Orders.
