SUBJECT : Moveable Shelving Project
1. The following paragraph is extracted from my monthly
activity report to the Claief, Records Administration Branch at
Headquarters:
The second increment of space was turned over to the con-
tractor on 6 May. (Area #' to F on plan) Concrete was poured
in the first increment on 10, 11 and 12 tda / . (Area P to F on
plan) Electricians removed the existing light fixtures and re-
placed them with the new type in the first increment except for
problem areas. Ti l e was laid in parts of the first increment on
25 May. On 24 and 25 May representatives from the 25X1A5a1
Alarm Co. relocated the control boxes, which were going to
interfere with the Moveable 13elving. Also during ,' , the first
carriages were put on the rail e, andRecords Center shelves were
put on the carriages. It would seem from the above that there
was tremendous progress during Mau; however, there were prob-
leme at every turn. The concrete is uneven and rough, the tile
did not stick, the edges of the concrete break, the concrete did
not bond to the original floor, air ducts were in the way of the
new light fixtures and vinyl edging strip did not work. In
addition to the physical problems, there has been a problem with
the contractor bringing uncleared empioyees to work on the pro-
ject. The contractor is required by the specifications to submit
a orm supplied by the government on each of his employees to the
25X1C4a who in turn submits the forms to=Security to have a
Security check done. We worked out a system with. the Security
officer whereby he would furnish us a list of the clears contrac-
tor personnel, and we would only admit those cleared; however, the
contractor on several occasions brow ht uncleared personnel to the
job. We referred the matter to the &Securit ~ officer who each
time acMtted the employee.

2. I am also attaching a copy of our Project Officer's report
for the month of May for your information. Please note in particular
'? is comments in paragraph 9 relative to our dissatis-
faction as tv the condition of the floor and the spaces by the rails.
3. I decided to send you this formal memo, at this time, to
alert you to the fact that unless considerable improvement is made
on the floor, rails, and slots by the ra1.2s,, I do not intend to
accept and start loading boxes onto the shelving in the first two
bays,
