understanding becomes available, and new risk-benefit decisions are made. For this purpose this documentary will supplement the more technical data published by DOE. — Third, to provide a detailed record of the radiological exposure of the cleanup forces themselves. As years pass, it will become increasingly important to the cleanupparticipants, to the U.S. Government, and to health physicists and radiation biologists, to have a meticulously accurate record of the radiological safety policies and procedures; an overview of personnel assignment practices; and a careful summarization of air sampler readings, film badge and thermoluminescent dosimeter exposures, bioassay samples, etc. — Fourth, to provide a useful guide for subsequent radiological cleanup efforts elsewhere. It seemslikely that there will be future requirements for radiological cleanup of extensive areas which present complex contamination problems. Since the Enewetak cleanup was a bellwether effort of its kind, the many lessons learned should provide useful guidance for those whowill plan and executefuture efforts. Information such asthis is quickly lost if not permanently recorded. In developing this documentary, every effort has been made to be accurate, balanced, and objective. However, since issues can appear in somewhat different light when viewed from different organizational perspectives, the reader should keep in mind that the authors generally have a DODaffiliation.
