Enewetak RADLAB Information
Location
Enewetak, Marshall Islands

In early 1977, the Department of Energy contracted with Eberline Instrument Corporation to develop and operate a field radiation laboratory on Enewetak. The laboratory provided radiological support to the Joint Task Group with the Defense Department, responsible for remediation of the Pacific Proving Ground. By late June 1979 most of the field work was nearing completion; personnel were released accordingly. By the end of September, the work was complete, the RADLAB was deactivated, back shipping of high value equipment and supplies was arranged, and the last of the Eberline personnel withdrew from Enewetak.
