Abstract

The associated Department of Defense disaster relief operation to the citizens of Japan was entitled, Operation Tomodachi. Finalized radiation dose assessments for the population of interest should be loaded into an Operation Tomodachi Registry by the end of 2012, which will support public inquiries.
