RADIOLOGICAL CLEANUP OF ENEWETAK ATOLL
‘The cleanup guidelines for transuranic contaminated soil remoya)
will continue to change and be amplified during the courseofthe
operation.”
“The general scope of work as defined by the Enewetak Radiologicat
Study and the Engineering Study for a Cleanup of Enewetak has been
changed andwill continue to be adjusted to meet changing cleanup
guidelines and circumstances.”’
‘This Operation will be constrained by the uncertainty of the scopeof
work. Should the scope of work increase as a result of conducting
operations, it may impede accomplishmentof the mission.’’330
Dueto this uncertainty in the scope of work, the OPLAN developers,like
the CONPLANdevelopers, did not include in the text any scheduled dates
for milestones other than D-Day.
The new OPLAN operations schedules had to be hastily prepared and
coordinated, with the result that minor errors in scheduling appeared in
the timetable for mission accomplishment.33! After the OPLAN was
published, the schedules were refined and two new schedule formats were
adopted, one for general briefing and the other for detailed planning and
briefing. The general cleanup project schedule as of 1S March 1977 is shown
in Figure 2-10. On some schedules; e.g., Figure 2-10, the mobilization
phase is shownas extending from 15 March to 1§ November1977, a period
