Decisions having the approval and cooperation of
the Eniwetok people will be necessary for some of these.
Advisory actions
should be considered as a bonus in the exposure reduction planning.
Re-
strictions on visits to certain islands, restrictions on use of specific
animal or vegetable rucds, and use of dietary supplements are advisory actions.
Considering the exposure reduction achieved by engineering actions, it
must be possible to maintain exposures of people below recommended levels;
otherwise the U.S. parties must deliberate whether cleanup and rehabilita-

The dose limif“issued by ICRP is recommended as the basic stamtard for
control of exposures to individuals at Eniwetok.

This is recommended with
the proviso that the full amount of the numerical value,should not be used
for (anjallowable exposure,from a single man-made source, in this case
radioactivity from weapons tests.
This proviso is made so that the Eniwetok
people will not be denied benefits of future nuclear technology because they
