Jack Tobin:
Ag you can s:e fron the Eniwetok Survey Plan, it is our intent to
obtain sufficient data from the total enviroment so that a assessuat
can be made of the radiological implications of the residual radioactive
materials for future inhabitents. We have plained a fairly couprehensive
nayine, terrestrial, air, and biota seppling and analysis pro.ram in
order that we may evaluate all conceivable population dose pathways.
In order that we may insure further that we are addressing the
specific needs of the Marshallese people in this survey and assesaient
I would a.preciate it if you would prepare the following informati on
for mas
L.Population distribution for those who are expected to rehabilitate
the atoll (Total numbars of adult males and females, total numbers of
minor males and females).
2-Social and political organization ?fmmilies (‘sic7 scattered over
many islands? Cluster Living? ).
3. Probable islands to be inhabited end/or cultivated and traffic
pattems between thes.
kLiving habits of the people, including average current diet in
as wuch detail aa possible. if their current diet differs in my
significant way from that which you are reasonably sure they will have
on Eniwetek please point out the differences,
I anticipate that this information will be used as m essential
part of the report we will write on the survay aid the radiological
assessamt. It should therefore be as complete as posaible and be
prepared in a written form that you consider appropriate for wide
distribution. Since we wish it alao to be ag accurate as possible
you may prefer to wait until you can discuss our needs with the
hiarshallese on Kajuro and (jil@. bafore preparing any written
une for inclsion in our report. (Thay may wish to contribute
also).
i Wiah to ewphasize that this information does not constitute a
plan for rehabilitation nor is it any way a comeitment by yo. or
the Marshallese for future action. It is simply a guide to uss go that we
can have greater confidence that we are conducting the most appropriato
gurvay posaible.
