DOCUMENTS ON DISK
After several months of requests, the Restoration Advisory Board at the 
Army's Natick Labs in Massachusetts is now receiving cleanup documents 
on computer disks. A RAB member writes:
"Our citizen/DOD/EPA relationship is fairly courteous and 
sophisticated, which is perhaps why, despite the fact that we are 
trying to get our selectmen to sue for water supply damages under 
CERCLA, we got permission from the local one-star to proceed to get 
WordPerfect disks for workplans, and Lotus files for datasets."
Where the community has the capacity to use electronic data, this 
innovative approach can save time, money, and trees.
