"KEG provides MTC with an introduction into the international arena of 'cradle to grave' solutions for AFTAC programs at sites located in several countries around the world. KEG's personnel possess expertise in such disciplines as signal processing applications in radionuclide, infrasound, seismic, and hydroacoustic analyses." "We are also pleased that we will now host High Interest Support Panels, including the Seismic Review Panel, the Satellite Review Panel, and the Department of Energy annual review, at our new facility in Satellite Beach, Florida," Mr. Gutridge added. "This facility will also be the site for five Joint Scientific Commission meetings from host country seismic organizations in the coming year."
