‘Plaintiffs wish to make it very clear, however,

reasonable chance that the project will result in benefit to
the People of Bikini.
It is requested that this Court enter an order

requiring that the Defendant agencies be required to seek
and obtain step-by-step prior Court approval of further
spending on the Bikini Resettlement and that they be required
to report to the Court on a regular basis, not less frequently

before taking those steps.

Defendant agencies to obtain prior Court approval for such
spending.

cane Bikini Resettlement,

apart from the steps specifically

requested to de affirmatively ordered above,
halted immediately,
