a> Locality: “Hono. Date: Personnel: Palumbo, Welander, Gessel and Donaldson, Sept. Weather: H & N sent a driver, Mr. Wm. Morrison, 4, 1964. Warm. to pick us up and go out to Hickam Air Force Base to check on flights and arrange our packing cases. At Hickam we found that flights to Johnston were out until the following week because of the Labor Day holidays. After much discussion we decided to go to Seattle and return to Johnston at a better time. H & N received our two shipping boxes and promised to send them on next available transportation. Tickets were obtained on Pan Am'‘s flight leaving at 10:00 P.M. Went to A.E.C. offices and talked to Ed Butts and others. Looked at construction charts for Johnston-~the entire island has been reworked with millions of yards of coral added to spread the island to almost double size. It would seem that sampling of Pu contamination to reproduce the areas sampled before is out of the question for if the area escaped being completely covered, the silt from the excavations would smother everything.
