Abstract: This report contains a narrative description of the activities of
Task Unit 7 (TU 7), the Radiological Safety (Rad~Safe) Unit of Task
Group 132.1, during Operation Ivy. Chapters are devoted to the general
discussion of the organization and activities of the scientific
sections necessary to implement an atomic-test radiological-safety
organization. The appendices contain specific details of operational

procedures. Since radiological safety is a technical service and not a
specific scientific program, objectives, procedures, and major results
cannot be
presented in abstract form other than to say that no serious
radiation exposures occurred as a result of Operation Ivy.;

Abstract: A radiological survey was conducted from September through

radionuclides in the terrestrial and marine environments of 11 atolls
and 2 islands of the Northern Marshall Islands. The atolls and islands
include Rongelap, Utirik, Taka, Bikar, Rongerik, Ailinginae, Likiep,
Jemo, Ailuk, Mejet, Wotho, Ujelang and Bikini. Over 4000 terrestrial

and marine samples were collected for radionuclide analysis from 76

different islands.

Soils,

vegetation,

indigenous animals,

and cistern

and groundwater were collected from the islands. Reef fish, pelagic
species, clams, lagoon water, and sediments were obtained from the

lagoons. Aireport is given of all available concentration data for /sup

137/Cs, /sup 90/Sr, /sup 239+240/Pu, /sup 238/Pu, /sup 241/Am as well

as naturally occurring /sup 40/K and other gamma emitting radionuclides
in Fassues and organs of different species of fish collected from the
atolls.;
