Utirik.
In addition, "sick call" has been conducted for the people
of Rongelap, Utirik, and those Bikinians who resided on Bikini Island, and
a medical survey of the people of Likiep.
The inclusion of additional people was estimated at approximately
$750,000 for every 200 persons added to the program (e.g., Enewetak $1.7 M; Likiep - $2.3 M;
- $1.3 M;
- $1.3 M}, including ship support.
