Nominated to run for the non U.S. positions are: Bertrand Barré (COGEMA) and Richard Sanchez (CEA de Saclay).
Directors whose terms will end in June 2003 are: Andrew C. Klein, Edward H. Klevans, Gail H. Marcus, Kenneth R. Schultz, Jorge Spitalnik, Kyle H. Turner, Ruth F. Weiner and Don R. Williamson.
