The initial field survay wes contemplated for tha perfed Getober 127December 6, 1972. The first week of thie schadule wae eterted, but
not completed, when Typhoon Olge caused a suspension of activities.
Subsequently, it wae necessary to reviee and reschedule the survay to
account for weather facters and logietic limitations. An serial
radiological and photographic survey of the atell was acconplished
Rovember 8-25 during the period of minimal legietic support. Survey
activities ware resweed during the week of November 27 on a revised

schedule and will now extend to aid-February 1973. The AEC radiological
survey now appears to be progressing snoothiy and collected samples are
being returned to the CONUS for analysis. Data to date, based mainly
on the results ef che aerial survey, eppear to be generally consietent
with earlier knowledge and expectations.
