The concept of phased operations presents the opportunity to
make an initial gross survey of the islands to identify those with the

highest procasility for soil removal.

These data will greatly assist in

develoning werkéng estimates of soil to be removed.

(i.e., shipped in mid-June and operational shortly thereafter).
