ERDA's SUGGESTED RESPONSE AND/OR COMMENTS (Continued)
Information developed for the Enewetak people as to time

that may be spent in various locations in the atoll.
These represent approximate values expected to apply to
different age groups and for men and women.

These are

assumptions, not recommendations or restrictions, based
on observations of people living in an atoll where there
ts non-Intensive agriculture and copra production.

Admit.
Roger Ray has no exact recollection of what he said,
but knows that Bikinians have tape recording of it, and

believes this to be generally accurate.
The statement that AEC had not recommended construction

of houses on Bikini Island is essentially correct.

AEC

did recommend that the first houses be constructed on
Eneu.

It is our understanding from Trust Territory

representatives, who worked with the Bikini people on

exact locations for houses, that the Bikini people
rejected this advice and required that the houses be
bullt on Bikini

tsland instead.
