30 year exposure value, or 4000 mrem over 30 years.
Several different scenarios and living patterns and conditions
were examined assuming that people would be living on Enjebi:

(The assumptions underlying these estimates are identified in the
LLL preliminary report and should be recalled, e.g., time spent on
islands other than Enjebi, coconuts consumed from other islands, etc.)
If the AEC recommendations are applied, the time intervals increase
by about 30 years.
For example, category "c" above would be about 65-70
years, category "d" would be 60-65 years, category "e" would be about
95-100 years, and category "f" would be about 90-95 years.

Presumably this decision was based at least in part upon our letter
to you of September 28, 1979, in which we estimated the potential
additional radiation exposure to people assumed to live on Enewétak,
