APPENDIX III
REVIEW OF RADIATION PROTECTION STANDARDS

The Task Group has considered a number of concepts in devising an approach
to guidence for cleanup and rehabilitation of Enewetak Atoll, accepting
some and rejecting others.

The concept that AEC recommendations should

consists of a series of alternatives or fall back positions with the
degree or level of radiation exposure reduction ultimately determined by
some later deliberation based on factors such as availability of funds or
reaction by vihers was .ejected.

The conseusus of cue Task Group opinion

was that these recommendations should be specific and uneyuivocal, and

should establish a clear nosition on what is needed.

Toa do less

would be unfair to the federal agencies who have accepted responsibilities
to perform the rehabilitations and to the Enewetak people who are looking
to this agency for advise.

The judgment of the Task Group is that rehabilitation must conform with
current radiation standards and with good health physics practice in
implementing these standards.
