Subject :
Coca Variance with the State of Californi a
Dear Mike :
Rocketdyme received word this morning from the Los Angeles office of .the
California Division of Industrial Safety, Mr . C . Stiles, Sr . Safety
Engineer, Los Angeles Region, that the proposed plan to modify and operate
the Coca Area for SSI-IE subsystems testing has been given tentative approval .
The approval is an acknowledgment by that office that their requirements
and those of the Pressure Vessel Section in San Francisco will be satisfied
by Rocketdyne .
As we understand the situation, the official irritten approval can come
only from the State Industrial Safety Board . This body is made up o f
four members appointed by the Governor plus the Director of the Department
of Industrial Relations .
It appears that this final approval step is primarily administrative in
nature . The fact that the cognizant office ( Los Angeles) of the Department
of Industrial Safety has presently given verbal approval should provide
adequate assurance for proceeding with construction activities .
Very truly yours ,
NORTH AMER IC Afl ROCK?TELL CORPORATION
