member representing each of the following fields: agriculture, atomic
energy, industry, education, law, medicine, Maryland Port Authority,
power, public health, transportation, and sanitary engineering.
The Commission was created to advise the Governor and State
officials on matters arising from. the peaceful application of atomic
energy. Application of atomic energy to peaceful pursuits can result
in situations involving governmental responsibility of the State which
are novel and without precedent. Ready access to the advice of quali-
fied experts representing these various scientific disciplines, profes-
sions, productive arts and sectors of economic activity enables the
State government to cope with the new situations or grasp new oppor-
tunities for economic development which arise from the peaceful appli-
cation of atomic energy (Code 1967, 1965 Repl. Vol., 1968 Sapp., Art.
41, sec. 359A).

The Ocean City Convention Hall Commission was created by Chap-
ter 646, Acts of 1967. The Commission consists of five members, all of
whom are appointed by the Governor for five-year terms. The Gover-
nor selects the Chairman. At least two of the members of the Com-
mission must be residents or property owners within the corporate
limits of Ocean City.
The Commission is to acquire land in Ocean City and arrange for a
suitable structure to be erected and operated for housing religious,
business and professional conventions, cultural conferences, industrial
exhibits, trade shows, and other events which might stimulate the
tourist trade and economy of the State. The structure will be known
as the Ocean City Convention Hall.
The Mayor and City Council have purchased and have deeded to the
State of Maryland "at no cost" a plot of land situated between 39th
and 41st Streets on. the west side of Philadelphia Avenue in Ocean
City, which contains approximately fifteen acres.
The architectural firm of Loewer and Associates was selected to
design the Ocean City Convention Hall, and after acceptance of their
design, bids were submitted by several qualified contractors. The low
bid was submitted by the firm of J. Roland Dashiell and Sons, Inc.,
of Salisbury, Maryland, and was accepted by the Department of Public
Improvements.
A meeting was held on the construction site on July 25, 1969, at
which time the project was reported, to be fifty-seven percent com-
pleted and the completion date to be February 1970.
The Commission must submit a report annually to the Board of
Public Works and the Mayor and Council of Ocean City (Code 1957,
1965 Repl. Vol., 1968 Supp., Art. 41, sees. 405-406).
