Primary consideration concerned addition of an item

of Bryan, College Station and TAMU, and the outlined
authority for the dispatcher to initate the warning

the dispatcher should telephone the TAMU Radar Room

Need to get actions cleared up for what the Bryan,
College Station and TAMU people will do after the
notice is received, especially after midnight.
Bardell discussed the College Station plans to use
the new two -way cable system to trigger the local
EBS on a local basis and prempt all 35 stations by
