“oy Slow speed is the rule on this freeway at Enyu Island. Jack Tobin, a representative of the Trust Territory, is advising the cleanup force on what material and which buildings will be of use to the Bikinians. Of the thousands of concrete padsscat- tered over the atoll most are being removed, but a few will be retained for use as copra drying yards. Useable wood ts being stacked for future utilization. Debris on Bikini, principally rusted metal and broken concrete, is being stacked for disposal after Enyu is cleaned. Main activity in late April on Bikini, the largest island in the atoll, was the stripping operation. Twenty-four-foot-wide planting strips are bulldozed 56 feet apart. Sixty-thousand coconut trees will be planted in the strips. The undergrowth is knocked down and allowed to remain tor humus and mulch for the young trees. The strips are laid out with a transit line and run the long way of the two-mile-long island. Following rehabilitation of the two largest islands, Bikini and Enyu, cleanup operations will continue on the smaller islands. Perhaps in six months time the whole atoll will be clean of debris and scrub vegetation and agricultural development mayproceed. First step in the agricultural redevelopment will occur soon when eight Bikinians will be brought from Kili to their homeatoll. Here they will be employed by the Department of Interior/ Trust Territory to start a coconut nursery. Coconuts are first planted in nursery beds, then transplanted after sprouting to permanent plantation rows. On Bikini they begin bearing at six to eight years. Sometime next month a rodent10 Charles Dunlap, Holmes and Narver, with transit and radio directs bulldozer hidden in the overgrowth which is being knocked down in 24-foot-wide strips for coconuttrees. The chapel on Enyu Island, built for the men on nuclear test operations, has been refurbished for use. E. L. “Dutch” Robertson, an electrician and lay minister, devoted his spare time to restoring this building and conducted regular Sunday services for the men of the clean- up crew.
