a list of important food items in the Marshallese diet. A report of
survey findings is issued. Periodically, a reassessment of radiological
conditions in the atoll is made and a report published. The survey
and reporting efforts operate approximately on a one-year cycle. This
followup radiological survey will be extended to include Enewetak Atoll
and its residents when cleanup and rehabilitation activities in that
atoll are completed.
.
Brookhaven National Laboratory, University of Washington, and the
Lawrence Livermore Laboratory ara ERDA contractors for this work. The
budget level is about 200 to 250 thousand dollars per year. There is
a high degree of cooperation among staff of these contractors and
frequent publication of findings in ERDA reports and in the scientific
literature.
The program provides a means for assessing the quality of
these environments as related to radiological health and safety of the
Bikini and Enewetak people.
