If pandarus and breadfruit are to be grown on northern islands other
than JANET, the criteria of Option IV cc should apply, i.e., plant in
soil having a 0. content of 4.6 pCi/gm or less, or bring clean soil
to the island with a depth sufficient to contain the roots of these
trees,

If these actions achieved a level of exposure reduction as large as the
calculational result, this would permit use of the entire atoll according to
the Master Plan.

This option is clearly much more expensive than other

options since it requires removal of additional soil and requires reconstitution of soil in the cleared areas.

Consideration of these actions as

a viable option is clouded by uncertainties regarding the exposure reduction

that can be achieved through partial soil removal and by selective soil
replacement.
