Bair:
It is the number shown on the chart for Rongelap.
Marshallese:
Point 6 means not, it doesn't even mean one person.
It is
less than one person for a 30 year period!
Ray and Bair:
Marshallese:
Right.
What about fish, sea life?
Rongelap? What about them?
Robison:
Either ocean or lagoon at
Is there any problem with that?
We have measured the sea life, the radionuclide concentrations fn
the sea life at all the lagoons and in the ocean at all the Northern
Marshalis and we have found no place that we would recommend that you are
not able to fish.
The marine products, be it the lagoon or the ocean, have
low levels of radioactivity in them.
In fact we find that the radionuclide
concentrations in the fish at the atolls here in the Marshalls are really
about the same or less than what we see in fish in the United States, in
the United Kingdom, Britain and Japan.
Marshallese:
Shellfish.
Like clams and crabs.
What about these in the
Rongelap islands?
Robison:
Buck:
The concentration...
He says fish obviously Swim around and move.
What about these
things that are mot as mobile?
Robison:
The same thing is basically true of the clams, the tig clams and
the smaller variety and the lobster.
is...you know...
Marshallese:
They're very low level and there
,
I just think that {4t would please me if you as experts in the
field and the scientists who have studicd all of these and are familiar
with the significance, the way these things affect us, you, it seems to me
