"Unlike Bikini, Enewetak has been partially resettled. From 1977 to 1980, the US carried out a $200 million nuclear cleanup and rehabilitation program. After having lived in exile for 33 years, the people have now lived in the southern islands since 1980." https://www.infomarshallislands.com/atolls-a-l/enewetak-atoll/
