Operations:

Evaluation of photographic data to predict base-surge

fects from surface detonations.

Ff-

Photography from other projects waBb

used.
Shots:

All.

Radiation Exposure Potential:

Slight

(data for the project were frpm

other units).

Staffing:

Two civilians from NOL, attached to this project, received

total exposures of 0.120 R and 3.165 R.

The individual receiving

3.165 R also participated in Projects l.la, 1.1b, and 1.1d, and prdb-

ably did not receive significant exposure as part of this project.
Project Report:

Reference 42.

Project 1.2a ~- Ground Level Pressures from Surface Bursts
Agency:

Sandia Corporation (SC)

Operations:

Instrumentation was installed on various islands of bdth

atolls for this project and Projects 1.3 and 1.7.

Measurements fo#

this project were obtained on blast pressure versus time at ground
levels with Wiancko gauges.
Shots:

All.

Radiation Exposure Potential:

Placement of instruments in areas TT

taminated by prior shots and recovery of data would have posed a p
tential moderate exposure.
Staffing:

Two civilians from SC were associated with this project

they had total readings of 1.315 R and 1.195 R, but also participafed
in Project 1.3.
