The areas southeast and northwest of the runway were stripped for planting in the same manner as Bikini. Coconut, arrowroot, and pandanus samples were collected and analyzed (Table 2). In addition, coconut crabs and marine life were sampled by the Laboratory of Radiation Ecology of the University of Washington. Table 2.

(Marshallese method of preparation) OBOE (AEROKOJ) - TARE (ENEMAN) COMPLEX Located on the southern side of the atoll. this complex consists of five islands, Aerokoj, Aerokojlol. Bikdrin, Lele, and Eneman with man-made causeways connecting Bikdrin to the islands on each side of it. OBOE (AEROKOU) - PETER (AEROKOJLOL) - ROGER (BIKDRIN) As indicated by Figure 4 the first two islands are contiguous and are connected to Bikdrin (Fiqure 5) by a causeway. The measured background gamma radiation levels were 10 uR/hr or less over all of these islands. No radioactive scrap reading in excess of 30 uR/hr was found on the land or reef areas near these islands. Gamma spectroscopy showed ®°Co to be the contaminating radionuclide in the few pieces of scrap metal found. The only coconut trees on the complex were found on the east end of Aerokoj. No pandanus or arrowroot was found. 1] ote aed
