Biological Surveys Will
Continue in Alaska
WASHINGTON M — Sen E. L.
Bartlett said Monday biological
surveys will continue in Alaska
this summer in connection with
a possible experimental nuclear
explosion.
The Atomic Energy Commission
is investigating the feasibility of
using nuclear explosives for
peaceful purposes in the program
called “Project Chariot.”
The aim is to try to blast out
a harbor in the Ogotoruk Creek
area near Cape Thompson.
The biological surveys are part
of the AEC effort to make sure
the blast would not endager in
habitants or plants and animals
from which they derive their
livelihood.
If the AEC decides that its ex
perimental explosion would be
safe, the President will be asked
to give the final go-ahead, Bart
lett said.
There is no indication how long
it will take to complete the bio
logical surveys, he added.

Fine Job Printing At The Nugget
A tree
is for me...
and
everyone else
We come across many a young fellow
like this in our job of exploring and
drilling for oil.
As a visitor in the forest. Standard
I has a responsibility to protect wild
life and keep the wilderness fresh and
green. And we accomplish this in
several ways by working closely with
‘i^h and game and wildlife officials.
I We steer around the feeding grounds,
| using soft-tired vehicles to preserve
the natural ground cover. When wells
are in, we assure new growth by re
seeding grassland and planting young
trees on the work area.
Water wells, essential to our drilling
operations, also nourish thirsty plants
and animals...and nesting and breed
ing ponds are built for wild fowl.
Exploring teams in helicopters keep
sharp watch for tires, and on the
ground our men with bulldozers and
water trucks stand ready to help
when tire strikes.
Wherever Standard taps new oil
reserves to serve the nation — the
forest and the animals who live there
are protected.
planning ahead to serve you better
