For purposes of the above calculation, the exposure rate on the beach was
assumed constant at 10 uR/hr, on the water at 5 yR/hr, and for the village

the modified (mean/2) exposure rate was used.

It is felt that all of

these estimates are conservative.
THERMOLUMINESCENT DOSIMETER PROGRAM

As a check on the validity of the gamma exposure rates as measured by
survey meters, thermoluminescent dosimeters vere placed at six locations

on Eneu and twelve locations on Bikini.

Three dosimeters were placed

at each location and left for approximately thirty days.
meters were then collected and shipped by air to
were read.

Survey meter readings at these locations ranged

from essentially zero to ninety ywR/hr.
