In line with the comments made on the visitor problem, it is recommended

that appropriate JTF personnel attempt to devise a method of advance notice
whereby TG 7.5 can be better prepared to handle this requirement.

In con-

junction, it is also recommended that the Commission review the matter of
official visitors being present without a need-to-know justification.
It is believed that Operation CASTLE has clearly indicated the desira-

bility of establishing a Rad-Safe unit within TG 7.5 which would be readily
susceptible to integration with the Rad-Safe organization of the Scientific
Task Group during operation periods but which would still retain responsibility for the actions of TG 7.5 personnel.

Therefore, the Field Manager,

EFO, will explore with the appropriate JTF element the possibility of maintaining the Field Manager's Rad-Safe group as a unit within the Task Force
Rad-Safe organization; this unit will continue in future test operations with

the responsibility of TG 7.5 Rad-Safe activities, including the maintenance
of records. In this connection it is intended that field supervisory personnel

of the Contractor would be trained to do their own monitoring and "policing"

of Contractor's personnel so that special monitors would not be required by
TG 7.5 working parties.

It is the opinion of the SFOO that public acceptance of the Operation was
again handicapped by an unrealistic public relations policy. Accordingly, it
is recommended that public relations aspects of full-scale tests be reviewed
and that JTF elements, along with interested offices of the AEC, develop

for consideration by the DOD and the AEC a revised concept of public information practices based upon known realities.
