The northwest-facing antennas at the Moscow Doghouse Radar Complex are probably externally complete, some
five years since initial construction was identified, and about three years since the start of actual face con-
struction. This degree of completion is seen at both the probable receiver and transmitter sites (Operations
Areas A and B). The readiness of these antennas for initial operation will new depend on the amount of internal
construction, equipment installation, and checkout remaining to be done.
The southeast-facing antennas at Operations Areas A and B are not yet complete. Their construction is approx-
imately one year less advanced than that of the northwest-facing antennas.
The antenna faces of Doghouse A were found to be constructed in separate layers, installed over a heavy steel
truss framework. The basic composition of the face consists of a vertical arrangement of adjacent, rod-like elements,
over which is installed a thicker layer composed of diagonally-set, ten-foot square blocks.
An azimuth sector scan of about 60 degrees is indicated for the northwest-facing probable transmitter antenna,
rather than the 90 to 100 degrees previously assumed. The 60-degree sector is suggested by tree removal in a fan-
shaped pattern in front of the antenna, extending outward at 30 degrees to either side of boresight I
No similar clearing activity has yet occurred in front of the southeast-facing antenna, probably because o r s ess
advanced construction status.
The only visible source of external electric power for the Doghouse is supplied to the operations areas through
a buried 6-to 10-kv line from the associated power substation. However, a 110-kv powerline passes nearby and possibly
constitutes an additional source of power.
Construction at the associated complex support facilities is also nearing completion. Of specific significance
are 17 large multi-story apartment buildings which constitute the permanent housing at the Doghouse complex. These
buildings could accommodate at least 4,500 personnel, compared to accommodations for approximately 1,800 personnel
at both Mishelevka (Angarsk) and Sary Shagan Site 13 Anti-Satellite/Space Tracking Radar Complexes.

This study presents a photographic analysis of the
Naro Fominsk Probable ABM Phased Array Radar (Doghouse)
Compex, with emphasis on mensural and structural analysis
of the radar antennas. It also constitutes an update of
the associated facilities showing their chronological
development since
The are so' nsk Probable ABM Phased Array Radar
(Doghouse) Camp 1 is located about 35 nautical miles
(nm) southwest of Moscow and consists of two separate
rat ns areas and associated support facilities
(Pidur on 1 and 2). The larger of the two operations
areas (Operations Area A) contains the large A-frame
antenna structure, Doghouse A; the smaller area (Opera-
tius Area B) is located approximately 8,000 feet est-
southw -t of Area A, and contains to smaller linear
antennas, Doghouse B.
All mensuration in this report has been perfox mod
by the NPIO Technical Intelligence Division, unless
t7 erwise indicated and is considered accurate within
the stated limits Since some mensuration in this report

dsprees) were felt to be justified, since previous
fi ores fell in the out a, far meters of the narrow ran'e
of latest results to be comp ted from numerous large and
.nail-scale remissions.
Correlation between antenna measurements computed
from four separate large-scale = issions resulted
in age ter degree of confidence than previously
obtained Advances in computer systems and methods, plus
a close coordination between the imagery analyst and the
photagrammetrist to derive the most accurate results,
also increases this confidence.
For the purposes of this report, the facilities
previously termed Support Area A and Support Area B have
been redesignated Construction Support Area and Main
Support Area, respectively, to better identify their
functions.
Operations Area A is located in the =outheast corner
of the complex (Figure 2). The major structure in the
area is a large A-frame antenna structure (111o'douse A),
which has been under construction for over three years.
Scher permanent facilities include a control building, a
T-shaped earth-mounded structure, and a steam plant. A
photograph and drawings with detailed mensuration of the
structures in Operations Area A are shown in Figures 4,
5, and 6.

Doghouse Radar A
This is a large A-frame antenna structure, 400
feet square at the base and 360 feet high (Figures 5 and
6). It supports two 345 by 365-foot probable receiver
antennas, one facing north-northwest and the other
south-southeast. Toth have boresight elevation angles
of 25 degrees. A comparative graphic, showing the size
of Doghouse A relative to other large, more familiar
structures, is shown in Figure 3.
The end walls of the A-frame are constructed of a
solid material of undetermined thickness and are probably
supported by a superstructure which is more massive than
the inclined truss members within the face opening. The
outer edges of the end walls on both sides of the A-frame
extend approximately nine feet past the surface plane
created by the inclined trusses (Figure 6). This would
allow a maximum usable depth of Q for application
of face layers, assuming the final layer to be on an
inclined plane coincident to the outer edges of the end
walls. A wedge-shaped section appears to have been
purposely omitted from the outer edge of the base along
both sides far the fall length of the structure (Figures
5 and 6). his omission may be a temporary feature
for construction access, or a part of the original
design. PSo accurate mensuration is currently available
for this section; however, based upon existing measure-
ments and photo analysis, it appears that the bare of
the outer edge is approximately 30 feet above ground
level. The result is a vertical wall 30 feet high which
has been observed wider construction and appears to meet
the outer edge of the base of the end wall. This feature
is illustrated in Figure 6.
I
Structural Analysis. The basic skeleton of the
Doghouse A radar is formed by the use of heavy steel
truss members. These members are emplaced in two
opposing rows to create the load-bearing frame or surface
plane of each face on the A-frame structure (Figures 4
and 8). Each of the surface planes is vertically sub-
divided by 19 truss members, spaced at 20-foot intervals.
These divide the face opening into 20 vertical openings
"slots," ,can with a width of 20 feet. The 1.9 truss
members within each face plane converge inward to, and
an area at angles of 25 degrees. At the to the are
attached to a flat, probably solid roof,
and 400 feet long (Figures 5 and 6). Joined to the
load-bearing truss members within each face opening are
18 horizontal braces or purlins, vertically spaced at
20-foot intervals. There is indication on several
ground photographs that these horizontal braces possibly
alternate in thickness, nine thick and nine thin. The
resulting broadside configuration is that of a steel
grid, 400 feet wide and 360 feet high, composed of 380
twenty-foot squares. The thickness or depth of the face
frame is approximately ton feet. Diagonal steel members
add farther structural support to the main trusswork on
the face of the antenna. These are most prominently
noted n ?s the open border between the top of the cr. aatenn'a face and the .of of the structure. The
diagonal members are installed at one per each 20-foot
division at alternating 45-degree angles. Although no
,her diagonal bracing can be a clearly identified as
that above the face, there are indications from ground
photography of additional diagonal bracing within the
overall face. It is assumed, therefore, that such
members arc probably present throughout the face
structure.
that sunlight did not pass through the yet-uncovered
framework in the lower half of the face. A comparison
with earlier photography, where sunlight did pass com-
pletely through the structures, suggests that a closely
spaced arrangement of braces is installed within the ten-
foot depth of the main trusswork during preliminary con-
struction. This additional bracing would probably serve
for rnounting electronic components and/or facing material
and might provide additional structural support.
Also evident prior to the installation of facing
material, is one probably thickly latticed 20-foot-
wide column or shaft in each side of the open face,
approximately 1F0 feet in from the end walls. Each of
these columns appears to be constructed between a pair
of main vertical truss members. It is possible that
these colwnns could be either open elevator shafts pro-
viding interior access to the antenna screen, lift
mechanise, housings for interior scaffolding, or
functional parts of each antenn, face.
Photography of permitted
the identification a rcw of V-shaped probable counter-
braces within the A-frame structure (Figures 7 and 9).
The foundations for these counter-braces are ,at at 20-
f'oot intervals, parallel to the base of the main tress
i4
X1
iembors, and probably extend the full length of the
antenna on both sides. The V-braces extend 60 to 70
Test back from the main truss in ember foundations in the
southeastern face opening. The tops of the "V" span a
20-Foot width, equal to the width of the main vertical
divisions in the antenna face. Lack of areuvato
mensuration precluded a determination of where or how
the V-braces are attached to the inner face frame. It 2 5X 1
appears, hovrever, that they are intended to counter the
25-ic"'cce slope of the main truss members in the face.
The inside of the northwestern face has never been
photographed from an angle which would allow identification
of simil ,r counter-bracing there; however, it is presumed
that construction of boar faces is identical.
On numerous ground photographs, indications of major
diagonal members have been observed within the A-frame
structure prior to installation of facing materials.
This 5,0 suggests that within the interior of the
p 1o ?e rat a couples arrangement of bracing and
Unsex-brsvrn m'ry be present, stabile ing the structure
as a whole.

(or diameter), begins at the top of the antenna face
(approximately 20 feet below the roof level) and pro-
gresses downward toward the base in even strips across
the antenna face. Once completely installed, the
elements extend vertically from the top of the base of
the (slant height) antenna face; however,
these rod-like elements may not extend completely to the
edge of the completed screen.
b. Layer 2 (Possible), Facing Materials. This
layer appears light toned an photography and is probably
of a smooth texture. The appearance of this layer con-
sistently occurs some distance below or in advance of
the descending construction progress of the elements in
Layer 1 (Figure 7). However, since this light-toned
material disappears when the rod-like members become
visible in the same location, it is believed that this
possible second layer could actually be a series of
individual "package" units. Each unit could contain
segments of the rod-like elements which form Layer 1.
Assuming this to be the case, the light-toned package
units containing these elements would actually be the
first material to be attached to the faae, the package
or covering then being systematically removed from each
unit, exposing the vertically-striated signature of the
rod-like element a. This light-toned layer, however,
cannot be discounted as a separate functional layer.
e
A departure from this construct'
observed on the northwestern face on
E_ I At that time, e. 45-foot-high strip of
1_11 e61ig mooned package units (Layer 2) was in
place across the base of the A-frame superstructure for
a horizontal distance of 345 feet. Yet to be installed
was one 20-foot wide segment on the northern end. By
I additional face layers were installed across
the total width of the antenna face (365 feet), from the
top down to a point approximately 20 feet above the
previously abserved 45-foot strip at the base. The result
was an approximately 20-foot high lateral gap across the
c. Layer 3, Facing Materials. Layer 3
(Figure 7) appears to consist of a series of sections
probably ten-feet square and installed over the vertical
rod-like elements (Layer 1),and is probably the thickest
of the four layers. The probable square sections are
light toned and are installed, commencing at the top, in
lateral rows across the antenna face. Each square section
is set at a 45-degree angle from the horizontal. The
resulting configuration, during construction, is a saw-
tooth pattern formed along the horizontal row being
installed, as shown in Figures 7 and 10. A ten-foot wide
column is constructed along the vertical borders of the
face. It is apparently made of the same type material as
the ten-foot squares, but with no evidence of a diagonal
or saw-tooth pattern.
To completely cover the near-square ( feet)
antenna face with these diagonally set blocks, the square
sections should be supplemented, possibly by similar
type triangular sections which would allow a smooth
and even border around the face. This leads to the
assumption that roughly 1,200 of the ten-foot square
sections, plus possible triangular sections, would be
needed to completely cover the 124,830-square-foot sur-
face of each antenna face. Though it appears that the
ten-foot square sections are the most likely basic
element far Layer 3, it is possible that triangular or
other quadrangular-shaped sections could also fit within
the construction format being followed in this layer.
d. Layer 4, Pacing Material. Layer 4 (Figure 7)
consists of a smooth light toned material forming a 20-
foot-wide border along the top and both sides of the
antenna structure. Although this border appears to
overlap the antenna face by several feet, it does not
seem to relate to the operation of the radar itself.
Construction Chronology. A ,,,,lots and comprehensive

feet high, was observed across the lower edge of the
northwestern face. The strip possibly consisted of the
rod-like elements (Layer 1) encased within a smooth-
featured material (laver 2). From
this possible arrangement
Layers 1 and ad een installed from the top of then
antenna face down to a point approximately 20 feet
above the existing strip at the base, leaving a 20-foot
gap across the lower portion of the face. At the same
time, it ro,ad noted that the light-toned material (Layer 2)
had probably been removed from a portion of the top of
the antenna face and elements of Layer 3 were being
installed on top of the exposed rod-like elements. One
row of the probable ton-foot eq.rare sections (or perhaps
triangular half sections) had been installed across
the top of the face to within 40 to 50 feet of the left
edge. At that point, installation of a second row had
progressed back to about the center of the antenna face.

A vertical border, probably of Layer 3 material, had been
constructed along the left and right edges of the face
with a break at the lateral gap near the lower edge.

vertical borders were observed extending to the
top of the face, but not all the way to the roof.
Several possible border sections previously seen above
the face were not noted on this photography. The
vertical borders appeared slightly lighter in tone than
the actual face, possibly indicative of some degree of
translucence.
Good-quality but small-scale photography during the
summer and fall of 1966 did not permit antenna layer
details to be seen.

photography on Though

The northi:.estern face was in shadow on all three passes,
and no significant developments were visible. Only
scattered remnants of the previously observed construction
material remained in the cleared area in front of the
northwestern face.
It is likely that the northwestern face is nearin3 com-
pletion and that little more construction detail will
be observed from photography. Initial operation of the
northwestern face can probably no longer be gauged by
external construction progress. The complexity of
interior construction has new become the principal factor
governing this consideration. It should be noted,
however, that similar large Soviet radars have become
active, though not necessarily operational, before

From this photography, the installation of rod-like
elements in Sayer 1 was clearly evident over approx-
imately half of the face area. A light-toned, vertical
20-foot-wide border (probably Layer 2) was present on
each side of the antenna face. In addition, probable
Layer 2 material was also present below the visible rod-
like elements, in a 30-foot-wide strip which extended
completely across the face. A wide scaffold, at least
365 feet long, was suspended from the reef to about the
point where construction had progressed. A smaller
probable scaffold was visible against the background
of the elements in Layer 1. Construction progress during

No further progress on the face could be confirmed
until photography of
revealed the upper half of the face to be covered by
Layer 3. Also at this time, the elements of Layer 1 had
probably been completed to the base limits of the face.
A dark-gray covering was present in the border area
between each edge of the face and end walls.
The advancing construction of Layer 3 toward the
base of the southeastern antenna was observed most
recently on Only the
northwestern face of Doghouse A was observed on mission
0(Figure 13).
it is believed that no more than a year should be
required to advance the southeastern face to a state
of external completion equal to the present status of
the northwestern face.
Construction Materials. Since the
amount of construction material in front of the north-
western face of the Doghouse A radar has decreased
steadily as construction on the antenna progressed. By
the end of 1966, only scattered pieces of material
remained in the area. A considerable amount of stacked
construction material still remains in front of the
southeastern face, although it too is disappearing as
construction progresses.
While the types of construction materials vary, there
appear to be four common sizes which have consistently
been observed (Figure 14). The largest of the four
(Figure 14a) is approximatel eet and is
possibly some type of packing crate or container. It
usually appears light toned and is frequently seen with
a diagonal section removed from one end. Of similar
size, but probably a foot or so shorter, is a rectangular
object (Figure 14b) of varying shades of gray. At least
one of these objects was observed partially encased
within the light-toned larger crate (Figure 14a) in
front of the southeastern antenna face. This object
could be, or contain, a group of smaller pieces of
material, as suggested by frequently observed differences

material on the ground.
object similar in appearance to a canvas-covered trailer.
The object is usually dark in tone. The smallest of
the four objects (Figure 14d) is an -approximately Q
square of material, most often seen during final stages
of construction and appearing in stacks of various
heights. In addition, numerous other pieces of uniden-
tified construction material have appeared in the cle red
areas.
Related Facilities. The support elements in
Operations Area A Figure 4) consist of a large L-shaped
control building, an earth-mounded T-shaped structure,
and at least ton smaller structures of a mld cel] aneous
or construction support category. Also present are a
n
steam plant, a pumphouse, three earth-mounded liquid
storage tanks, a bank of two cooling towers, and several
cranes. Mensuration for these elements is shown in
Figure 5.

a. Control Building. This 0 2 5X 1
L-shaped structure is located 70 feet from the western
side of Doghouse A and appeared complete in l
(Figure 4) The main part of the building is 5 0 feet
long aso 180 feet wide, with a 165 by 100-foot wing on
one end. A main personnel entrance is present in the
southwest end of the building, and at least three possible
vehicle entrances are visible around the structure.
Fight objects of various sizes are located on the roof,
the most significant of which appears to be a possible
15-font-diameter dome-like structure on the southwest
corner. The remaining seven objects are probably rela2tX 1
to internal building functions or activities.
Iwo ten-foot-wide possible elevated cableways ext
from the northeast wall of the control building to an

undetermined point within the A-frame structure. These
are 35 feet above the ground and are supported on
lattice columns.
b. I- Shaped Earth-Mounded Structure. A
T-shaped, earth-mounded structure of unknown function
is located northwest of the control building (Figure 4).
This is one of four such structures identified in the
Moscow area. It was completed by O and remaiy~ 5X 1
unchanged to date. The other three are located within
the Triad Electronics Area at three of the six deployed
ABM launch complexes (E-05, E-24, and E-33). The
facility at the Earo Fominsk Radar Complex consists of
three earth-mounded rectangular structures which extend
outward from a 25-foot-high central bay to farm a T-
shaped configuration. This structure, with a small
parking area near its entrance, is the first facility
encountered upon entering the main gate. The front
entrance into the unwounded central bay of the T-shaped
structure appears to handle considerably more traffic
than the larger opening in the "stem" or northernmost
end. The road to the rear entrance has remained unsur-
faced though it is wider than the road to the front
entrance and appears to be able to handle large, heavy
vehicles.
The two mounded sections paralleling the site access
road are probably the main functional components of the
facility and are vented on the extreme ends. The shortest
of the three sections appears to be a possible drive-in
loading or receiving wing for the other two sections.

after I it was removed or possibly relocated

handling construction materials, were originally present
in the cleared storage area in front of the northwestern
antenna face F'i~nzra 4). These two cranes were removed
by Although much construction material
has been observed in a similar cleared area in front of
the southeastern antenna face (Figures 4 and 12), no
gantry-type cranes have ever been observed. Several
smaller mobile construction cranes have been observed
operating in the area.
a. Other Structures. Another group of
buildings, sear the northwest corner of the Doghouse
radar, appears to have a close relationship to the radar.
Two structures, present in were presumed to
su ort local construction. Between
a third structure was added, and ground scarring and
a possible wall of conduit has since been observed
between the northern wall of the newest structure and the
northwest corner of the Doghouse. Additional large-
scale photography will be required to further identify
this activity.
A 60-by 25-foot building, present in II was
removed from the cleared area in front of the northwestern
antenna face by 0 The remainder of the buildings
in the area are probably for construction support, with
the exception of a security building at the main entrance
to the operations area.
Operations Area B is located approximately 8,000
feet west-southwest of Area A in the southwest corner of
the complex (Figure 2). The major structures in this
area are two linear antennas (Doghouse B) and a large
control building. The antennas have been under construc-
tion for over three years and are now in the late stages
of construction. Also present in this area are denting
and water pumping facilities and various construction
support buildings. A photograph and drawings with
detailed mensuration of the structures in Operations
Area B are shown in Figures 6, 15, and 16.
Doghouse Radar B
an consists of two structures,
Probably housing transmitter antennas
(Figures 6, 16, and 18). These antennas have boresight
azimuths and elevation angles identical to those of
Doghouse A.
Because of the relatively small size of the antennas,
and the lack of ground photography, less is known about
the antenna construction details of the Doghouse B radar
than of Doghouse A. The northwest and southeast-facing
antennas will therefore be described as one since all
available photographic evidence indicates they are of
identical configurations, as are the two faces of the
Doghouse A antenna.
Structural Analysis. The operating components of
Doghouse B are two parallel 780-by 34-foot antenna
structures, located approximately 8,000 feet southwest
of, and in close longitudinal alignment with, Doghouse A.
When externally completed, these structures resemble the
"Thin Boy"-type Hen House radar in basic configuration.
The individual antennas are located on opposite sides of
a 665-by 200-foot control building and have opposing
boresight azimuths, identical to those of Doghouse A
No antenna construction details were obtainable
until large-scale, non-stereo photography covered the
facility on (Figure 17), a roximately two
years after con ru? ion ad begun. In II the
structural enclosure for the northwestern antenna elements
appeared to be externally complete, -and installation of
antenna facing was in progress. Possible containers or
as tiara of facing material were visible in front of the
antenna.
Excellent quality photography of rides
the basis for the current knowledge o e rn ersal
antenna configuration (Figures 16 and 18). At this time
the probable interior elements in part of the southeastern
anterra structure were revealed, and it is from this
observation that we derive the following analysis of
the antenna.
Each of the 780-foot-long antenna structures contains
two distinctly separate rows of elements; the abutting
ends of these rows are separated by a 30-foot open area.
Each row is 375 feet long and contains fifty-one 6.5-
foot-wide elements, plus a ten-foot-wide element on each
end. The number and width of elements in each row is
similar to (and possibly the same as) the number and
width of, inclined rod-like elements in Layer 1 of
Doghouse A (Figure 11). Although it is unknown how deep
the individual elements extend into the structure, the
surface plane of each row is not deeply set within the
structure. This suggests that the face covering layer
here is somewhat thinner than that of the Doghouse A
antennas.
Once the internal elements are in place, a smooth
light-gray covering material is installed. This material
covers only 51 elements in each row, resulting in a ten-
foot-wide gap in each end of the antenna face, with a
larger uncovered area in the center of the antenna
structure. These gaps, or openings, are subsequently
covered with sections of material which appear to pro-
trude slightly forward of the face covering. On the
roof, in the approximate center of the northwestern
antenna structure, several small platforms or structures
are present. A number of unidentifiable objects are
osit'oned an at least one of the platforms. As of
Inc nsimilar structures have appeared upon thq-)
southeastern facing antenna structure. 25X1
Attached to the southern end of each antenna 25X1
structure is a loo 20-font-square building. The physical
relationship between this building and the antenna
structure closely equates with that of the terminal
building and antenna structure at a Dual Hen House radar.
'The significant difference between the two radars, other
than size, is the presence of a building at each end of
a Hen House radar.
Construction Chronology. Although foundation con-
struction for both antennas at the Doghouse B radar pro-
bably began simultaneously in mid-1963, the northwestern
antenna has progressed more rapidly. While the north-
we atern antenna itself was probably completed externally
by~ major ditching and earth scarring around 25X 1
it remarne evident until suimner 1967. At that time,
trenching had been filled and a hard-surface road had
been constructed around the antenna structure. One
trench could still be seen along the road parallel to the
antennas, possibly for drainage requirements.
In terms of construction, the southeastern antenna
is probably more than a year behind the northwesters-
antenna. In 1I it was at a sta a roximatinp~
that of the northwestern antenna fn G91
9*1
Between the trees were2 5X 1
cleared from a large area in front of he northwestern
antenna up to the security fence, leaving the area free
from vertical obstructions for a total distance of
approximately 700 feet in the direction of boresight
azimuth i.. Beyond the security fence, the
larger trees had also been removed, leaving only small
trees and brush. This cleared area extends outward
from each end of the antenna structure at an angle of
approximately 30 degrees from boresight (Figure 19). In
the spring of 1967 with the melting of snow, it w s noted
that the cleared area was being smoothed and graded out
to the security fence. No such clearing activity has
yet occurred in front of the southeastern antenna, most
likely because of its leas advanced construction status.
Construction Materials. The only construction
materials which could be identified as antenna associated
were in the form of wedge-shaped sections, located in
front of the antenna strl.etures. These sections appeared
very similar to the sections or crates (Figure 14b)
observed during construction at Doghouse A, although
their relation to construction at each radar may be
differ ant. At Doghouse A, these possible crates, or
their contents, were never identified as close to the 25X1
antenna structure as they were at Doghouse B. At the
southern antenna of Doghouse B, these wedge-shared
sections occur in several configurations. All forms

Since the antenna faces are not vertically segmented
or paneled as are Hen House antenna faces, no antenna
details can be observed once the face is covered.
Related Facilities, the supporting
facilities within Operations Area B were probably still
under construction. At that time, they included a
control building, a steam plant, pumphouse, three hounded
liquid storage tanks, a security building and several
construction support buildings (Figures 15 and 16).
a. Control Building. Both of the antenna
structures are joined to a central control building by a
pair of elevated, 15-foot-wide possible cableways
(Figure 18). The building is 665 feet long, 200 feet
wide, and with a higher section on the
northern end where the main entrance is located. It was
externally complete ml The presence of
doorways, or openings, was observed in in the
lower level of the southern wall for all but approximately
100 feet of the length of the building (Figures 15 and
18). A dark tone along the lower level of the building,
observed on the latest photographic coverage, indicates
that this open urea is probably still present in both
sides of the control building facing the rear of the
antenna structure. Two "niches" or inset areas are present
in identical locations in the upper portions of both side
ralis.
appear to be variations of a basic rectangular component
approximately rhich is either truncated
or segmented into triangular units. The triangular
segment or unit averages approximately
feet.
Once installed on the antenna, the location of these
sections is undetermined. The most probable location is
on the face, as paneling material, since no other types
of material are present to be used for such purposes.
Also possible is their use as roof sections, although
this seems less likely.

In the same period, a small possibly operations-related

The complex support areas consist of a large main
support and housing area, a construction support area,
railroad classification yard, power substation, and a
probable water treatment facility (Figure 2).

Construction Support Area
The Construction Support Area (Figures 22, 23, and
'T'able II) is located midday between Operations Areas A
and B and in contained numerous
miscellaneous structures. BetweenIand
bee,, r used. Most of the scattered structures located
between baxm ucks area and Doghouse D had been removed by
Q It appears that this area is gradually being
abandoned and will eventually probably serve only storage
needs.
Ra it road Classification Yard
The railroad classification yard (Figures 20, 21, add
able I), located north of Doghouse A, has undergone no
25X1 signi'ie nt chranges since The structures
within the yard, however, re cle It iden
tified since that time and are .sown in Cable I.
