ENEWETAK POST-CLEANUP DOSE ASSESSMENTS Final dose assessments for Enewetak Atoll cleanup must satisfy the following requirements; 1. There must be a final dose assessment for residents living in the southern islands, assuming they return in 1980, taking all of the terrestrial portion of their diet from islands in the south including the southeast except for birds and eggs (with and without imports), with the marine portion derived from any location in the lagoon. Both an average diet and a diet for drought conditions with no imported food available and use of lens water for drinking should be used. The predictions should treat the dynamic situation of increased amounts of local foods becoming available with time. There must be a final dose assessment for residents living in the northern islands including Leroy. Both residences on Janet Island and on Sally-Tilda-Ursula must be treated assuming the return occurs in 1980. It should be assumed that most terrestrial foods in the diet of northern island residents will come from their village island (or island complex for interconnected islands), but some of the foods, particularly coconut products, will come from other northern islands where pre-cleanup or post-cleanup transuranium element levels will allow planting of subsistence coconuts. Both an average diet and diet for drought conditions with no imports and use of lens water for drinking should be treated. It should be assumed that the marine diet items come from the northern portion of the lagoon, Post-cleanup external radiation levels will be used in the northern islands assessments where such cleanup of soil and scrap reduces the levels. Included in.the Janet and in the Sally-Tilda-Ursula assessments will be a dose estimate for residents of the highest wato having the highest soil radioactivity levels. 3. There must be a final dose assessment, a variation of (1) above, that assumes that subsistence coconuts are planted on six northeastern islands (Aej, Lujor, Aomon, Bijire, Lojwa, and Alembel) and that coconuts from these islands will be used for food by some of those who live in the south. What is needed is a dose estimate for that category of individual (most likely those who work to make copra from these islands) who would be expected to receive the highest doses from northern island coconut in their diet.
