and Resettlement. As with Bikini Atoll, responsibility for cleanup
and rehabilitation rests with the DOD and DOI respectively. AEC
ie responsible for conducting a radiological survey, assessing
the results, and establishing criteria and: constraints for cleanup

and rehabitation, involving other agencies, as appropriate.

Organization of the Eniwetok Radiological Survey, now under way, is shown
in Figure 3. The Washington Interagency Group is charged with coordination
of actions to effect overall Eniwetok Atoll objectives.
The Manager, Nevada
Operations Office, has been directed to plan, organize, and conduct the
AEC radiological field survey to develop sufficient data on the total
radiological environment of Eniwetok Atoll. Technical standards and
requirements for the survey and cleanup operations will be provided by
responsible divisions within AEC Headquarters.
Specifically:

The Division of Biomedical and Environmental Research (DBER)

has the responsibility for reviewing and guiding the
preparation of a report on the radiological status of the
atoll.
This report will be prepared by the Data Evaluation
Group at Lawrence Livermore Laboratory.

The Division of Qperational Safety. (DOS) shares responsibility
with DBER and the Division of Military Application (DMA) for
Planning the survey. DOS will provide the coordination of
these plans and their extension during the survey with the
Assistant General Manager for Environment and Safety (AGMES).

DOS will also provide information on the survey to EPA staff

at the Washington level upon request.
DOS will review and
evaluate all data and assessments relevant to the feasibility
of various cleanup methods and methods for disposal of
hazardous materials.
Cleanup criteria, requirements,
guidelines, and environmental and health protection standards
to be employed during cleanup operations will then be

developed by DOS in consultation with appropriate AEC staff
sections and other agencies,

The AGMMA has the overall authority and responsibility within
the AEC for coordinating matters related to the rehabilitation
of the Eniwetok Atoll.

Tne radiological survey, and the interpretive effort associated with it,
is a large program superimposed on a number of technically qualified
organizations.
Survey activities and analytical efforts by responsible
organizations are reflected in Figures 4 and 5.
