(3) The Director indicated he would like to get a report from Field Command on urinalysis going back to 1977, (4) There was also a discussion of the inconsistency of protective clothing worn by those working on the tremie operation, as observed by the Director during his visit to Runit. (S) The JTG will correct this inconsistency. JTG Fact Sheets concerning Radiation Safety; High Exposure Readings; Air Sampler Status; Radiation Control Committee Actions; Administrative Doses for . Personnel; and Environmental Background Measurements, are at TAB L. d. The next briefing was an OSHA/Industrial Safety update. It was poinged out that the number of work-related lost time accidents has remained low despite a steady population increase on the Atoll from '77 to '78. The high number of accidents which once took place near Operation Switch time have been leveled off and reduced. Safety training was also discussed. the OSHA program at Enewetak Atoll is at TAB M. Additional data concerning e. The OSHA briefing was followed by’a DOE Rad Lab presentation by Mr. Paul Dunaway, ERSP Manager. The briefing did not get very far. He indicated that IMPing on Medren has stopped, and that Medren is OK to build houses and live there. Following that, Admiral Monroe asked: "Why don't we find out more about strontium and cesium on Enjebi?"' The Admiral indicated we had moved a lot of soil from Enjebi. Admiral Monroe asked about analyzing some coconuts on the Northern Islands. (1) The above question generated a long discussion, primarily between Roger Ray and Admiral Monroe, which did not result in any firm commitments from DOE to provide additional data as requested. (2) Some of the points made by Mr. Ray were that it isn't that easy--more time is needed--he needs to know more about what we want to know, and so on. He indicated that while we may have taken about 20% of the cesium off of Enjebi, “we have not made a significant change." for gamma rays from americium and cesium. He also indicated that the IMP checks Strontium is a beta emitter. fad (3) Following the discussion, Mr. Dunaway asked if the Admiral would like a copy of a handout concerning the radiological condition of the islands. That handout is at TAB N.
