Feasibility Committee--Operation JANGLE. The Feasibility Committee met in January to review the criteria and assumptions for radiological safety that were initially estab- lished for JANGLE in 1951 (surface and underground detona#ions). Discussions were held on the actual radiological conditio existed after the detonations. Based on these findings, and calculations were given of possible radiological con that would result from nuclear devices of larger yield fo¥ and underground detonations at the Nevada Proving Grounds surface Recommendations made by the Committee concerning estdblishment of an operational guide for whole-body gamma radiatidn for the generaloff-site population and the continuation of tile air sampling and monitoring program for future test series presented to the General Manager by the Director of the wi] be Research Activities Project SUNSHINE, jointly by the Division A conference was sponso d Corporation in January progress of Project SUNSHINE to date and to direct future in the study of possible world-wide contamination with radi strontium from nuclear detonations.
