Logistical Support (PASO) - Under the general guidance of NV, PASO
through H&N utilizes a very well developed logistics delivery system.
This is in place primarily for Safeguard C proposed to support our
partnership with DNA at Johnston Island, but the skills have been
forged during the Enewetak cleanup project, the Northern Marshalls
Radiological Survey, the Enewetak Crater Drilling and Seismic project,
and the many years supporting DOE missions at remote sites all over
the western Pacific.

About half the costs are directly relatable to

a vessel charter (with crew), fuel, and related support.

The network

in place at Honolulu, Kwajalein, Enewetak, Bikini and Majuro consists

of "seasoned hands".

All are joined by a reliable HF radio link.

COMPACT COMMITMENTS BY US
A.

Bikini - As part of the settlement of a lawsuit, the US has agreed to
essentially make every reasonable effort to make Bikini habitable and
to resettle the transient population.

Funds are authorized.

What must

happen now is the BARC wil] make its report to Congress (end of FY86),
acceptance of that report by the Bikini people, the development by the
US of a resettlement plan, blessed by the Bikinians.

This plan will

to a large extent reflect the radiological assessment work done by LLNL,
expected to be completed in FY 1988.

B.

Enjebi Island (Enewetak) - Upon request from RMI, the US will provide
an updated dose assessment and advise on conditions of resettlement.

C.

Special Medical Care with Logistical Support to Remaining 174 Exposed
Rongelap and Uterik People
DOE through BNL has been providing this care since the 1950s, now

formalized under PL No. 95-134.
