CHURCH: In the 60s, Bill Wagner's doctoral thesis, which I have a just that thing. copy of, was published in the early 70s, and that was specifically what he looked at was the migration out of the high Uinta Mountains down into the lowlands. As I recall, his findings were pretty minimal. In fact, he had to look awful hard to try to see anything come down in like 20 miles. He 10 did a lot of ion exchange concentrating out of the streams, just trying to 11 find cesium, 12 wildlife, vegetation, soil and stuff like that in the high Uintas and found 13 lots of radioactivity in those samples 14 think that we ever really saw any evidence of a migrating in a way that 15 would be of much concern. as an example.

I would just like to remind the Committee that I did report in one of your earlier meetings about our reanalysis of some of the Larson 19 samples from Utah, 20 them for cesium, 21 compared them with the values we got in the nearby towns, and I think you 22 will remember that the values we got were very close to what we would have 23 predicted 24 analyzing these samples now for plutonium and isotopic ratios, and we will 25 be reporting on those results in one of your future meetings, comparing the 26 results of those samples with the other results from our own samples. 27 for where we actually got those samples, and, that although they were not exactly considering CHAIRMAN MOSELEY: the types Thank you very much. 28 76 of samples, and we analyzed in the towns, and we are we still
