FINDINGS

4

bamesiemeen| Tho are @leven nuclear tests which may have deposited

radioactive materials in significant amounts greater than world wide fallout on several of the Pacific Atolls.

These events and the atolls they

may have contaminated are indicated in tabular form in Table 1.

Additionally,

the fallout pattern, if available » or several hodographs are indicated in
