-5- RECOMMENDATIONS The Task Group reached the following conclusions: 1. Observing precautions, the people may safely return after certain actions are taken. Exposures will be somewhat above current levels in the U.S., but the small risk seems perrnissible in relction to the desire of the people to return. 2. To assure expusures that will be as low as practicable: a. Villages and residences to be located on ELMER, FRED, DAVID, or other southern islands (ALVIN-K@ITH). b. Travel and visits may be unrestricted to all islands -except YVONNE. When Pu contamination on YVONNE is removed, the restriction of travel to that island may be lifted. c. Coconut excepted, growth of animal and vegetable subsistence crops to be limited to southern islands ALVIN-KEITH. d. Subsistence and commercial coconut may be grown without remedial measures except on ALICE, BELLE, CLARA, DAISY, IRENE, JANET, and YVONNE, e. Fishing permitted anywhere. f. Wild birds and eggs may be collected anywhere. . g. Coconut crabs maybe collected only on the southern islands (ALVIN-KEITH). h. Wells to provide lens water for human consumption or for agricultural use to be drilled only on the southern islands (ALVIN-KEITH). Water from any well to be assayed for bacterial, salinity, and radioactivity content before approved for use. 3. Enjebi (JANET) is a special case, and the people have a strong desire to live there. Three ground zcroes were on Enjebi and high yield events were fired nearby, with the result that this was the most heavily contaminated of the largerislands. The Task Group has been unable to determine a reliable, feasible way to bring exposures within the acceptable criteria and permit ° ee a eee oe 7 “4 os mt wR : . 1 Spt a) ne , . : , we, es .. ot a we, Aor Ce fo : bs Ta eB eng, “, ee Ta ‘ aaee we Prt al wee EOE at « — BT MES . 7 Se OF BEE RF ea te oe ra EE, “te als tee Seb ‘ .
