Eniwetok Atoll. an emergency capability for post-shot evacuation of Eniwetok will be maintained. Such evacuation will be executed if post-shot radiological conditions indicate it is necessary, All personnel (except the firing party) will be evacuated for some of the shots at Bikini. Only those personnel required for the actual firing or for immediate re-ertry or early preparatory activities will be on Enyu or Eninman or aboard ships in the Bikini area; the balance of the personnel and equipment will be phased to kLniwetok, Predictions as to the reestablishing of temporary camps in the Bikini area after the first shot cannot be made at this time; therefore project personnel must be prepared to live aboard ships subsequent to the first shot if necessary. Limited laboratory, shop and office space will be ‘* ‘SS xy provided aboard Navy Task Group vessels. Temporary (tent) laboratory space may be furpished on Eninman Island (Tare) during the operational period prior to the shot, providing this space is essential to the project and that the”project cannot use laboratory space at iniwetok (larry) or eboerd ship. It is noped that it will not be necessary to evacuate cny matcrial beyond the limite of Bikini Atoll for protective purposes, excent for the last Bikini shot. . E, The construction phase mst be completed by 1 January 1954. To meet this completion date the following lead times must be met in order of sequences Design — 1 month Procurement ~ 2 months Shipping - 2 months Construction — 4 months It is therefore imperative that the submission of the respective project's construction requirements be given the highest priority. As much material as possible will be evacuated to Eniwetok prior to the first shot. Equipment and material required for post shot re-entry will be evacuated by LST's and LCU's, F. It is expected that the. following commnications facilities will be available for Task Group 7.1 use: 1, facilities: Communication Center, Parry Island (Elmer) with the following (a) Direct teletype circuits to Bikini, Kwajalein, Honolulu, (b) TWX and voice circuits to Bikini and Kwajelein. (c) Land line or 4N/AnC teletype and telephone circuits to (a) Crypto facilities. and Los slamose £:CS Eniwetok and 4.CS Bikini will probably be linked by an air control voice circuit, major vessels in the vicinity of Eniwetok and Bikini.
