Subject: Summary of ILRS Responses

The following proposals were received in response to the recent Joint
CSTG/IERS Call for Participation in the new International Laser Ranging
Service (ILRS). Deadline for submission was March 31, 1998.  Please review
the list to ensure that your submission (if any) was received. The
organizational responses are grouped first by function (e.g. Central Bureau,
station/subnetwork, analysis or associate analysis center, global or
regional data center, and operations center) , then by country in
alphabetical order within each function, and then by station in alphabetical
order within each country. Therefore your organization may be listed in more
than one place.  

Thanks to all who participated. There are still a few groups who are
currently involved in SLR activities that have not responded and a few new
organizations as well. If you have submitted a Response Form and you do not
see it on this list please contact me as soon as possible. If you are late
in submitting your proposal, I urge you to submit it immediately. 

Sincerely,

John J. Degnan
Chairperson, CSTG Satellite and Lunar Laser Ranging Subcommission
