D. Develop and draft alternative models of international agreements for various phases and aspects of cooperation in the SPS program analysis and development. Such agreements should be prepared for bilateral, regional, half- or near-global and global cooperation and should extend also to cooperative arrangements with appropriate international organizations including, for instance, the European Space Agency. The different types of agreements should encompass appropriate amendments to current solar energy agreements, if necessary, to cover particular aspects of the SPS program. The draft agreements should be geared to various phases (research, development, operation, etc.) and aspects (scientific, economic, political, etc.) of the anticipated SPS program and allow for routine review and/or amendment. They should include feasibility studies, coordination of research, exchange of information and experts, training of scientists, cost analyses, determination of ground sites, orbital locations, frequency use, exposure effects and many other aspects and phases of the SPS program. 5.2 Long-Term Studies A. Prepare a survey and analyze the activities of all international governmental and nongovernmental organizations in the field of solar energy and determine to what extent, if any, could their activities also be extended to phases and aspects of the SPS program without modifications of their basic charters. B. Develop a U.S. negotiating position and prepare a draft treaty pertaining to microwave exposure standards on the basis of
