LEASE AGREEMENTS POR THE UTIRIK AND RONGELAP SITES
Qear Mr. Tindals
Ae indicated in my letter te you dated March 15, 1968, we heve
discussed the peénts raised in your letter to ae deted February 21,
1968 with Dr. Conard as well es the draft of the agreement covering
the lease of the Rongelap site which you enclosed. The following
comments ere of fered:
l.
The wording of the draft is acceptedle as written; however, it is
suggested that if possible, the description in peragraph 1 be
better defined to show the location end spproximste size of the
parcel of land. It is our understanding that the areas on
Reagelap and Utirik which we are sow using, coauprise just e« little
less than one scre each. For the purposes of « lease agreenent
and to compute reatal gsyaent, it fe acceptable te us to base the
ageunt payable on a unit of one acre of land for each ares ca
Rongelap end Utirik.
2.
Ia connection with paragraph 2, previous lead rentals peid for
these aress oa Zongelzp and Utirik by the Jefense Atomic Support
Agency were $75.00 each per yest. Therefore, it is hoped you
will be able te negotiste a rental aot to exceed $100.00 per
acre per yeer for each site or $200.00 per year total for both
sites.
