CLEAN-UP ASSESSMENT PLAN
During the field survey of the Islands in the Eniwetok Atoil, an attempt
will be made to evaluate possible clean-up mechani

and provide data for

future engineering estimates of the decontamination operation,

This decontan-

ination assessment is anticipated to take the following forn:
1.

An estimate of the quantity of activeted materials and debris from

previous tests will be made,

Special attention will be made to record, in «

preliminary sense, locetion, anount,

and radiation levels of the debris that

should be removed before reoccupation.
2.

An attempt will be made to evaluate the feasibility of collecting

single particles or "hot spots" by simple excavation techniques or sieving.
Various sized screens will be teken to evaluate the feasibility of separating
contaminated debris rather than removal of all contaniinated soil and/or coral,
The character of the contaminetion in various areas will be evaluated in terins
of the feasibility of removing localized hot spots in preference to whole-scale
excavation.

An attempt will also be made to locate localized hot areas which

will require total excavation,
3.
