It is anticipated
that technical standards and requirements will be provided by
responsible divisions within AEC Headquarters."
Organization:
The organization of the field survey, the analytical
work, and the interpretive effort associated with the Eniwetok Program has largely been determined by the following considerations;
1.
At the Headquarters level the Division of Biology and
Environmental Research (DBER) will have responsibility for assessing
the radiological implications of sources of direct radiation and food
chain-to-man paths,
DBER will provide guidance as to the data needed
from the field to conduct that assessment.

The Division of Operational Safety (DOS)
will share responsibility for
planning the survey and will provide the
coordination of these plans and
their extension during the survey with the Assi

for Environmental Safety (AGMES). DOS will
also provide information
on the survey to EPA staff at the Washingt
on level upon request. DOS
will review and evaluate all data and asse
ssments relevant to the feasibilit
of various cleanup methods and methods
for disposal of hazardous materials
and will make recommendations on
requirements, guidelines, and
environmental and health protection standards to
be employed during cleanup

on technical organizations which already have made commitments for
their people for FY 73.
The number of qualified organizations able
and willing to respond is therefore limited.
5.
Since no compromise on the quality or comprehensiveness of
the survey will be acceptable, participants are being chosen on the
basis of their being able to do the necessary high quality work in the
time frame in which it is needed.
With these considerations in mind, an organizational chart of the
Eniwetok Survey Program is shown in Fig. 1.
NVOO is the primary organi-
zation for implementing the survey, interacting with DMA, DBER, and
DOS at the Headquarters level.
The survey itself, and the interpretive
effort associated with it, have been divided into eight categories:
