report of the anthropologist from the Trust Territory.

These data, plus

those obtained during the 1964 survey, should form an adequate basis for
an assessment of the radiological situation in the Atoll.
To shorten the time required for decision making and to minimize
the expenditure of travel funds , we foresee the need for recurrent meet-

_ ings of key individuals over a 3 to 4-day period to consider matters
such as exposure estimates for a variety of assumed conditions or guid-

ance on the better of several alternatives and conditions for
resettlement.

This would also provide us opportunity to consult with

outside experts, such as staff of the Federal Radiation Council. (FRC).
We would expect that recommendations could be developed on the question
of resettlement from a radiation safety viewpoint.

These recommendations

will be considered in preparing an AEC reply to the Secretary of

Interior.
It has been suggested that we meet three days at the AEC office in
Germantown.

Staff of the Divisions of Biology and Medicine and

Operational Safety are proceeding on the basis that this schedule can be
met.

As plans for the meeting are completed, you will be provided any

additional information.

A copy of a tentative agenda is attached.

It

undoubtedly contains gaps, but these can be filled before the ‘meetings.
Please notify us Whether you or an alternate can attend. .
