The entries in the fable above are based only on chemical determinations (number of samples in parentheses). They are responsible for about 25% of the total dbse which Livermore now attributes to plutonium-239,-240 (.37 pCi/day) an americium-241 (.13 pci/day}. The rest of the dose was estimated ratio method of extrapolation: it was assumed that the Rongelayp by a ratio, equal the Bikini ratio (based on chemical determinations for both soil specific activity of food to that of soil (chemically determined) and food). would
