Not all radiation issues were addressed in the DOE-1982 booklet.
The DOE-1982 booklet did not address radiation doses already received by
the Marshallese nor the potential health effects that might have
resulted therefrom.
The authors of the DOE-1982 booklet were asked only to communicate the
results of the 1978 survey, which were reported in the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory Report, UCRL-52853 Pt. 4, September 30,
1982.

When the information in the DOE-1982 booklet was presented to the
Marshallese government officials and representatives from the northern
islands at Majuro in December 1982, the representatives from Rongelap
expressed concern about past exposures to radiation.
I do not have information about what was done.
In the spring of 1983, DOE officials and scientists from Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory and others visited all of the populated
northern Marshall Islands to exglain the DOE-1982 booklet.
Because of
other commitments, none of the authors were able to participate.
I do not-believe I have any documents, letters, memoranda or other
materials which address this matter.

I did not perform a detailed assessment of the Kohn Report.
I commented
only on those points that dealt with the DOE-1982 booklet.
I do not believe Dr. Kohn understood the purpose of the DOE-1982
booklet.
His report purported to be a review of the DOE-1982 booklet
when, in fact, it appeared to be a review of the work of the Lawrence
Livermore National Laboratory team and Report UCRL-52853 Pt. 4,
September 30, 1982.
