Dear Ambassador Rosenblatt:
It was helpful to talk with you by telephone after
the. October 12 inter-agency meeting at the Department
of the Interior.
I have subsequently. suggested to
Under Secretary James A. Joseph that he should under-
take-to-call upon the Department of Energy to develop a
plan for long range.radiological monitoring of Enewetak
Atoll and its People,
a program-of vital importance to
' "‘them:and:'to:all.those in the Marshall Islands who were
“exposed':to radiation or otherwise affected by the
nuclear..testing activity carried on by the United
States.at: Bikini and Enewetak.
I. am prompted. by recent news accounts appearing
;
here, copies of which are enclosed, to take up with you
some of“‘the same questions we discussed in our October
telephone conversation, and others, arising out of our |:
representation of other clients in the Marshall Islands.
In addition to serving as Counsel for the People
pe
pa
of Enewetak, we represent the People of Rongelap and
