Wature and Scope of Test

This test will be conducted to provide informatian on possible
concentrations of airborne beta decay products that would create shipboard inhalation problems. A prototype instrument that is expected to
fit design specifications of a possible future shipboard air monitoring

unit will be placed on each TRANSIT ABLE and TRANSIT BAKER in an effort

to answer questions concerning the necessity for an air monitoring system
and the effectiveness of the prototype instruments in providing such warn-

ing as may be needed.

In other words, does an actual airborne hazard

exist, and will these instruments adequately record such hazard and give

warning in time for realistic countermeasures to be taken?
