PREDICTED EXTERNAL EXPOSURE DOSES TO RETURNING ENIWETOK POPULATION
.
4
Utilizing the comprehensive aerial survey data reported by EG&G supported
by ground level TLD measurements and other information inferred from the soil
sample radionuclide analyses, we estimated free air doses from gamma-ray
emitting radionuclides present in the soil on the various islands at Eniwetok

Atoll to which the returning population might be subject.

Integral doses for 5, 10, 30 and 70 years beginning in 1975 were calculated for the five different living patterns presented in Table L.

These

cases were chosen to- bracket the probable range of doses which would be
received by any sizable segment of the population.

Almost any other

reasonable pattern can ve inferred by combining the results from two or |

For ‘example, averaging the calculated doses for either Ig or lh, II,
o

III and IV should give a reasonable estimate of the average dose to the entire
returning population, assuming half live on Engebi and half on Eniwetok and
