and biological food-chain considerations. It 1s anticipated that technical standards and requirements will be provided by responsible divisions within AEC Headquarters." Organization: The organization of the field survey, the analytical work, and the interpretive effort associated with the Eniwetok Pro- © .gram has largely been determined by the following considerations: 1. At the Headquarters level the Division of Biology and Environmental Research (DBER} will caiman for asseesings from the field to conduct that assessment, ‘2, The Division of Operational Safety (DOS) will have equivalent responsibility for work associated with clean-up operations. 3. The Eniwetok Atoll is currently under the jurisdiction of the Air Force (SAMTEC), and contracter field operations people are on the atoll supporting the PACE experiments. DOD (DNA) has agreed that these people will support the survey program also. The PACE experi- ments are now standing down, and the PACE people are off the atoll pending approval of the appropriate environmental statements. In _ order that we do not put an undue strain on the support capabilities the radiological survey should be completed before the PACE people return, oh, Their return is now scheduled for January 1, 1973. The Radiological Survey is a fairly large effort superimposed ‘on technical organizations which already have made commitments for their people for FY 73. The number of qualified organizations able and willing to respond is therefore limited. . De Since no compromise on the quality or comprehensiveness of the survey will be acceptable, participants are being chosen on the basis of their being able to do the necessary high quality work in the + naeamet time frame in which it is needed. With these considerations in mind, an organizational chart of the Eniwetok Survey Program is shown in Fig. 1. NVOO is the primary organi- laceeeten RE ee zation for implementing the survey, interacting with DMA, DBER, and DOS at the Headquarters level. The surysyeétself, and the interpretive ‘effor$associated with it, have been divided into eight categories: 4 -2=
