the 60 keV gammaray of 155Eu, as discussed in Section 3.2.7. Data for 187Cs and 69Co were used
to obtain external exposure rate values for use in the post-cleanup dose assessment. The selection of
these particular isotopes for detailed analysis was based on previous data (see, for example,
NVO-140) which indicated that the primary gamma-ray-emitting radionuclides at Enewetak were
2414 m, 137Cs and 89Co. Random visual inspection of the complete spectrum tended to support this

assumption with the exception of Pearl, where measurable levels of barium-133 were detected.
