Rotation of the rerkinz personnel resulted in c6etting the most work accomplished within the exposure allowed, and this roassicgnment was made smoothly and without confusion, Considerable fall-out on the islands north of the test island was observed by the 0-47 plane survey and later confirmed by pround measurements, Fall-out was also received om the photo tower and on Eniwetok, but it rapidly decaved and nover approached the tolferance Limit. On the L&! Tank Mission, Radsafe Party No. 6, the first tank becane stalled near the sero point, but the reserve tank successfully obtained the desired samples. In the operations on Enuvetok Islani, it was found that the drone planes shoved evidence of much higher exposwres than on the previous tests. The top filter boxes were removed from the drones, but it was considered more efficient in the case of the bottom filter baxes to remove the filter paper holders without removing the bexes fra: the planes. Gloves and 15" tongs were used for this operation, althoush a stapling machine was used to mark the papers. The monitors kept the handling personnel advised of the intensities at all times, During the stapling operation, it was realized that the personnel were near tolerance, but, as no relief personnel were available and a halt in the operation weuld have caused a serious delay, the workers continued to work until the papers Were loaded on planes and on their way to the ZF. It was recanmended that more remote methods of handling filters for future tests be devised, Cn ZESRA-plus 3 days all of the ships of the task force in the lagoon were inspected. by monitoring partics, These groups paid particular attention to the blower intake screens. the open decks, the ship-s boats, the evaporators, the auxiliary condensers and any corgo that the ship happened to have on board. All monitoring operations ceased after TESRA-plus 5, amd the test island “was declared closed. Captain LaLllory was assigned to rerain at Enivetok Island until relieved by the permanently assigned garrison monitor, Monitor Schedules.
