A group of 150 scientists led by Maury Tigner of Cornell submitted a report to DOE in May containing three reference designs for the Superconducting Super Collider. In June the Universities Research Association, which is to administer the R & D phase of the SSC project, designated Tigner as director of the SSC design and R&D program. The Department of Energy, in its FY 1985 budget request, had asked for $20 million for R&D on the collider. However, it was not until mid‐August that it decided to release the $20 million at the start of FY 1985, on 1 October.
