Both Figure 1 and Table 1 indicate to ue that a steady decline in adult average body-burden ig to be expected in future yeare. There sre short-term increases which we eannoc prediet in advance and these enuse the measured walues to vary from the expected decline. However, over a long peried ef tise increases will be balanced by decreases below che expected value. Our estimates indicate to us that an individual's dose equivalent rate @ from all sources at Roengelap may vary by a facter of three above the average adult value and thie would be due to living pattern variations. Again over a long period of time an individual "s dose equivalent (che integrated dose equivalent rate) would be expected to be ecloge to the average value. The average effective dese equivalent we estimate from 1957 te 2007 ds 0.042 Sw (4.2 rem). In quantitative terms if the radiation expesure at Rongelap leads to a Gaussian error distribution ef dose equivalent, then the probability of exceeding the 50-year integrated average-adult walue, 0.042 Sw (4.2 rem), by more than a factor of five is 1 out of 100,000. This faetor of five eerresponds te a 50-year integrated effective dose equivalent in exeess of 0.2 Sv (20ren). This in turn corresponds to an average dose equivalent rate greater than 0.004 Sv per year (400 mrem per year) for 50 years. We have tabulated the average 1984 whele-bedy counting results in Table 2- The maximum burden did not vary from the average vaiue by more than @ facter of three for any ege grouping at either ef the three lecations Listed. We have summarized, in Figure 2, recent i3leg body-burden results for adults which we have obtained over the past few years. greatest at Rongelap and lowest at Enewetak. 5001613 Hedy burdens are
