Sen. Frank E. Moss (D-Utah) introduced an amendment to S. 2350 that would continue experimentation with earth resources re-mote-sensing satellite systems through 1 Jan. 1980 unless a permanent system was established before that date. The amendment was a substitute for S. 2350, the earth resources survey bill to develop an operational ERTS system and to establish an Office of Earth Resources Survey Systems within NASA and an Earth Resources Observation Administration within the Dept. of the Interior {see 18 Sept.]. Other provisions of the amendment would require the President, through NASA and DOI, to ensure continuity of satellite data during the experimental period and furnish Congress with any necessary budget amendments.
