ducting of each ship, will be measured both vith bete instruments and

directional gamma instruments before any cecontamination operations arg

undertaken,

(See Tab B-l for monitoring plen and availeble results),

All measurements will be made by 6.44,

snd

Measurements will be mado by moans of fixed gamma monitoring
instruments, beta instruments, radiac instruments and directioncl gamma
instruments to determine (1) the progressive and over-all effectiveness

of each decontamination procedure, and (2) the individual effectivonesses

of the steps, or mothods, constituting cach procedure, The measuroments
will be made at established locations, or stetions, and a total of 138

zone surveys will be required (sce Tab Bel), Tho number of additional
surveys which mey be required for the boiler air ducts, ventiletion com-

partments and mechinery spaces, is problematical,

accomplished by 6.44.

Upon the completion of initial surveys and following the

, This measuremont vill be used to detcrmino the amount
of rusidval activity removable from ABLE after weshdown, and the amount
of original activity removeblo from BAKER in the absence of weshdown,

Residual contaminetion vill be moasured efter each step (method) of

each decontamination procedure to obtain the indiceted officiency of
each step and the total efficiency of the procedure, These results
will be of importance in the ultimate prepcration of an operrtional
pien for the recovery of ships, Available results ere given in
