Robison:

The number that would compare to the 500 that you referred to

would be this column which says 400, but that is the maximum amount, the

maximum exposed individual.

Most people would get much less than that and

that's the number you would compare to 500 and that gets a little less

every year but by the time you add up 30 years that's how you get 2500.
Okay?

It is getting less every year but still you have to add year one,

two, three, four, five, right up to thirty.

And so that's how you get to

that number at the end of 30 years.

Marshallese:

Seems like yesterday, I remember now something I wanted to

ask about our discussion yesterday.

That at Rongelap, somebody living at

the northern part of the atoll with the numbers you are using in your
calculations as a base, 233 population in 1980, in the next 30 years, at
some point in the discussion yesterday, I recall you saying that perhaps 3
might die.

Die from cancer?

I remember this coming out of the discussion

when we were looking at the slides and the figures on the slides, seems to

me that that figure came up 3 people.
TAPE 6, SIDE 2
(Note a few words were lost when the tape was turned over)
Robison:

...additional cancer.

Marshallese:

Bair's point six to 3.

Looks to me like the color in this picture of Rongelap island

is just one down from the color of Naen.

In other words we aren't in that

category but we're in this category by living on the islands, the main
island of Rongelap.

He says that of everybody living at Naen you get the

figure 3, might 3 more might die because of all of them living there.
Well, Rongelap is the next spot over as far as contamination.

So what's it

for us?
Ray:

And it is point six.

It is one-fifth of that.

Less than one or

point six.
