SCOPE:
This project will evaluate the radiological problems associated
with the resettlement of Bikinf Atol! In the Marshall Islands including:
@
alternate living patterns Involving Bikini {sland,
@
alternate Islands, e.g., Eneu {sland and Nam Island In the

northern section of Bikini Atoll, for primary residence,
on the world market,
,
Istands If such crops are restrained from the world market,
We will maintain the data filles and information both from Bikini and
Enewetak so that we can respond rapidly to DOE needs for Marshall
Island assessments.

RELATIONSHIP TO OTHER PROGRAMS:
This assessment program Is closely related to the follow-up
research programs at the Bikini and Enewetak Atolls (189 Nos. LLL/ASEV-
80-5 and -22) to the continuing assessment of Enewetak Atoll, and to
past surveys at both atolls. Results from this program will be
integrated closely with any future atoll] surveys.

TECHNICAL PROGRESS IN FY 1978:
The Initial dose assessment of Bikini and Eneu tslands at Bikini
Atoll! (see publication No. 1) was completed.
