Dear colleagues,
Given below is the list of nominations for the IUGG Bureau and the 
Finance Committee as agreed upon by the Nominating Committee.  For each 
position either one or two candidates have been nominated, as required 
by the By-Laws (10b). The positions and the nominated candidates are:

President: 	U. Shamir (Israel) and W.R. Peltier (Canada)
Vice-President: 
P. Malanotte-Rizzoli (Italy) and T. Beer (Australia)
Treasurer: 
A.W. Hansen (Denmark)

Finance Committee

Position #3	Y.T. Chen (China) and C.S. Sava (Romania)

Note that the current Secretary General, J.A. Joselyn, was elected for 
an eight year period in 1999. The position is therefore not up for 
election this time. Resumes of all candidates have been posted on the 
IUGG web site.

During the next five months, new candidates for each office will be 
added to the list given above if they are supported by at least three 
presidents or equivalent officers of National Committees of Member 
Adhering Bodies. As before, the candidates must signify their acceptance 
of nomination and must prepare a resume outlining their position, 
research interests, and activities related to the Union. The deadline 
for adding nominations is 30 March, 2003.

The resulting final list of nominations will be completed and 
distributed by 30 April, 2003. The By-Laws provide for re-nominations 
following the close of the first Council Meeting at the General Assembly.

If you have any question concerning the nomination procedure, please 
contact the chair of the Nominating Committee, Klaus-Peter Schwarz, at 
the following e-mail address kpschwar@telusplanet.net
