EXCERPT FROM MINUTES OF SEPTEMBER 7, 1972, INTERAGENCY MEETING ON THE REHABILITATION AND CLEANUP OF ENEWETAK ATOLL AtC AcC noted that the location and removal of noncontaminated debris should not be separated from location and removal of contaminated ebris. A precleanup survey covering both radiological and engineering aspects would be required and tentatively was being planned for late September. AEC would fund the radiological aspects of this precleanup survey, the conduct of any other radiological survey activity that might be required to understand conditions in the environment as they relate to exposures of people and developments of standards, and the conduct of periodic followup radiological surveys that take place after cleanup. lf later field and/or laboratory work is done by AEC in support of ‘cleanup, AEC should be reimbursed by DOD. DOD DOB would be responsible for funding the engineering portions of the precleanup survey and those monitoring and survey activities that are required to support cleanup operations and to insure safety of personnel involved in cleanup activities. DOD also would fund the later cleanup of both radiological and nonradiological activities. DO! would be responsible for funding rehabilitation costs once cleanup was completed. Bot For the benefit of Mr. Cardwell from OMB, DO! proposed that appro- priations for both cleanup and rehabilitation be separate and not included in overall ceilings. pepartment ‘Cneray of Energy 's Gitice Historian S ARCHIV E Your proposal is heard but there is no way to give you any reaction on that today. : ENCLOSURE 1}
