In 1976 (end of the bubble chambers period) John Adams and Léon Van Hove rationalized the system, abolishing the committee system based on experimental techniques, and basing it instead on the machine.
The Electronic Experiments Committee (EEC) and Track Chamber Committee (TCC) (after 1966 commonly called the Physics I (PH-I-COM) and Physics II (PH-II-COM) Committees) merged to become the Proton Synchrotron Committee (PSC).
The PSC examined all experimental proposals for the 28 GeV Proton Synchrotron and made recommendations to the Research Board (RB).
In 1978 the PSC and the Synchro-Cyclotron Experiment Committee (SCC) fused to form the Proton Synchrotron and Synchro-Cyclotron Committee (PSCC).
