Abstract: The analytical program for samples of soil, vegetation, and

animal tissue collected during the June 1975 field survey of Bikini and
Eneu islands is described. The phases of this program are discussed in
chronological order: initial processing of samples, gamma spectrometry,
and wet chemistry. Included are discussions of quality control
programs, reproducibility of measurements, and comparisons of gamma
spectrometry with wet chemistry determinations of /sup 241/Am. Wet
chemistry results are used to examine differences in Pu:Am ratios and
Pu-isotope ratios as a function of the type of sample and the location
where samples were collected.;

Abstract: This report assesses the plutonium intake via inhalation and
ingestion for residents of New York and residents of Bikini Atoll.
Based on inhalation and ingestion intake, the plutonium transferred to
urine would be roughly seven times greater at Bikini than at New York.
