Cleanup areas will be sampled at some to-be-determined fre-

quency during soil removal operations to permit decisions on removing
additional soil or certifying the area as cleaned.

The scraping/sampl-

ing will be repeated iteratively, presumably reducing the area for
cleanup with each pass, until an acceptable level has been reached.

The Pu suspect areas together encompass an area of approximately
150 acres.

This total is probably on the high side, however, as suspect

area bounds were liberally placed.

As summarized in Enclosure 1, nearly

4,000 samples are initially programmed for analysis to eliminate the
suspicions and define the areas deserving Cleanup.

The last column in

Enclosure 1 summarizes an attempt to estimate the quantity of material
which would be excised if the entire 150 acres must be cleaned up.

The

volumes were calculated by assuming that areas with significant contamination at the surface only will require cleanup to a depth of 15 cn,
and areas which are contaminated to greater depths will be cleaned up to
a depth approximately at the point where the AEC Survey shows Pu con-
