The Governor appointed this Council by Exec-
utive Order in 1970 to succeed the Governor's
Science Resources Advisory Council. It is to pro-
vide the Governor with objective scientific or
technological advice as he deems necessary and
appropriate, identify broad future problems in all
fields to which scientific approaches should be
applied, and to formulate recommendations to al-
leviate these problems and to define problem
areas to which committees could find solutions or
recommendations for action. The Council is also
to define scientific areas where additional research
or the analysis of data is badly needed, to review
the available resources to perform such analysis,
and to recommend the approach to be used. The

Independent Agencies/351

Council is further to improve scientific education,
including identification of well-defined problem
areas for studies to be performed by graduate stu-
dents, particularly those studies that will be of
value to the State, to act as a liaison with scien-
tists of other states or agencies in coordinating
approaches to common scientific problems, and
to provide scientific and technological advice to
the principal Executive Departments at the Gov-
ernor's request or with his approval.
