HUB to McCraw - we will not turn on anything unless we hear from
him because he had started everything through DOTA vice WV.

Informed Roger Ray of above 12/14 and that we were making arrangements to send a medical trailer for Dr. Pratt to Majuro on Caroline
Isiands about 12/15.
Somehow, Distad DeBrum thought we were making
arrangements for sending WBC.
Murawski told by me to hold on WBC
until PASO got instructions from NV.

Murawski informed HUB 12/14 that HICOM had sent message to DISTAD
asking availability of ship to get WBC and provide power water
sewer hookups to WBC on Majuro, food for Ex-Bikinians coming from
EJIT to be counted, and small boat transportation back and forth

ask what if anything he wanted us to do.

situation.

above messages, would

I assured him that DOE Coordinator

Miltenberger asked if PASO should be making arrangement for support
for Bikinians on Majuro.

out exactly what these needs were in that regard and since it was
