His photographic ability is considered by all in the Center as excellent.It has been pointed out to Mr. Maksymice that the laboratory does not have a basic requirement, or a slot for a photographer, and since he is carried as a D & E technician, he should be more qualified than he is in other aspects of photographic and scientific research other than straight "picture taking", as he does not have the basic foundation either in formal education or experience to perform successfully as a D & E technician. This lack of qualification in this area can be partly explained by two factors: (1.) Mr. Maksymiec's position. description was recently changed due to the reorientation of the laboratory'a primary mission and hunction; and (2.) Because of his previous photographic responcibilities he did not have the opportunity to gain the new skills required to fulfill his new duties as a D & E technielan. Mr. Maksymiec will have to be re-trained from a photographer into a D & E technician so that he can con-tribute more to help solve the laboratory assigned tasks.Mr. Maksymice still had problems in his relationship with other members of the laboratory during this reporting period.

In the latter part of the rating period the activities of the Exploratory Laboratory were being changed from ad hoc researen projects to a directed program of planned investi- gations against NPIC and community problems. This change in activities reduced the freedom of choice in tasks to be accomplished and increased the demand for versatility in laboratory personnel. The lack of freedom and the assignment of unfamiliar tasks are distasteful to Mr. Maksymiec since he doubts that these activities will provide the personal recognition he has enjoyed for many years as an outstanding photographer.DATE 14500/865Continued on another sheet.OPPICIAL FIPLE OF HEVILDING UPFICIAL Cater, ESD/TSSGSECRETTYPEDENTED NAME AND SIGNATURE WILLIAM G.
