aose
assessments and determination of radiological trends,
2.
individual and population dose-equivalent assessment based on measured
body burdens, retention functions, and radioactivity uptake patterns.
These data
will be used to modify predictive dose-equivalent commitment models so they nay
more adequately reflect future trends, and
3.
the collection of physiologic, anthropomorphic, diet and living satrern
data to apply accurate parameters to contemporary and predictive dose assessments.
Program activities in the coming fiscal vear will emphasize the following:
1.
in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
Enewetak Atoll residents,
2.
in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
former Bikini Island residents,
3.- in vivo counting and radiochemical analysis of biological samples for
Marshallesecomparison groups who have not subsisted from food grown on Utirik,
Rongelap, Bikini or Enewetak Atolls, and
4.
sampling and analysis of coconuts and coconut tree food products obtained
from Enewetak.
The nuclides of primary dosimetric interest ara Cs-137, S$r-90 and Pu 239-240.
Personnel monitoring programs will be aimed at neasuring these in the Marshallese
