DR. JAMES LIVERMAN -3- AND CONTINUE TO STUDY BIKINI. Ik BILES WERE TO SO CLARIFY HIS REMARKS I BELIEVE DEBRUM WOULD, IN THE ABSENCE OF DOI INSTRUCTION TO THE CONTRARY, PROCEED WITH RESETTLEMENT TO THE CAPACITY OF THE PRESENT HOUSES. AND WATER CATCHMENTS. HE HAS ASSURED ME THAT EXISTING TERRESTRIAL FOODS CAN BE KEPT OUT OF THE DIET. I URGE A BILES CLARIFI- CATION BY RETURN TWX. OUR DISCUSSION WITH KILI PEOPLE WILL BE CENTERED AROUND THREE THEMES: 1. WITH SOME REASONABLE CONSTRAINTS, EXISTING HOUSES ARE ENTIRELY SAFE FOR HABITATION. 2. WE STRONGLY URGE AND ENCOURAGE A SHIFT OF EMPHASIS IN LONG TERM COMMUNITY PLANNING FROM BIKINI TO ENYU. 3. WE WILL CONTINUE RESEARCH, MONITORING AND SURVEILLANCE AND SHOULD, STARTING ABOUT SIX MONTHS FROM NOW, BE ABLE TO START ADVISING ON BIKINI ISLAND FOOD ITEMS. HOWEVER, WE DO NOT ANTICIPATE FOR SOME YEARS THAT BIKINI ISLAND WILL PRODUCE ACCEPTABLE SUBSISTENCE CROPS. IN ADDITION TO THE REQUESTED CLARIFICATION OF DR. BILES COMMENTS (PLEASE ADDRESS ME CARE OF DISTAD DEBRUM WITH TO KNOW COPY CARE OF CMDR KMR) WE NEED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE .
