plannine*board which had been established to consider radio- logical safety criteria as well as means of reducing local fallout. He said that in view of the Commission discussion at Meeting 1246, an accelerated review had been made of each Planned shot to determine how the estimated fallout of these shots could be reduced and that the 4,000 megacurie figure was the result of this review. Mr. Libby said that in accordance with Commission discussion at Meeting 1245, he had reviewed radiation effects data. He then commented on the basis of the calculations made of the radiation doses received by individuals in the vicinity of NTS and observed that the actual radiation doses received by these people are probably less by a factor of two than the measured values. Therefore, he said he believed the 10 roentgen limit for radiological criteria was a conservative figure. The Commissioners d:.scussed with Mr. Graves the manner in which radiation doses had been measured at NTS. Mr. Libhy suggested that although the figures used at NTS are conservati an improved and exnanded monitoring nroczram should be conducte in the communities surrounding NTS. He said that the new figv would hé valuable in an examination of the fallout problem at NTS prior to the next test series after Operation PILGRIM, Mr. Murray then commented on the possibility of moving some of the proposed shots such as the 60 kiloton shot, to the Eniwetok Proving Ground. He said that this action might preclude any adverse public reaction which would affect the availability of NTS for fubure tests. Mr. Graves commented. th the proposed 60 ktloton shotiwould be a high tower shot and “
