Collateral information has reported the appearance of military engineer units in these areas. This report presents the results of a search in the area of Chang-Chih. Chang-Chih 36-10N 113-o6E Chang-Chih, a relatively small city, is located 260 nautical miles (nm) southwest of Pei-Ping, China and 100 nm south of Tai-Yuan. This city is the northern terminus of a railroad that leads south for approximately 100 nm to join the major railroad system in the vicinity of Cheng-chou (34-45N 113-40E). There is no apparent construction activity in the vicinity of Chang-Chih that has any missile or nuclear energy significance. (Figures 1, 2 and 3) 1. Chang-Chih Arsenals - Two large rail-served arsenals are located on the southern outskirts of Chang-Chih. Each of these arsenals has from 7-10 large, multi-story fabricating and assembly buildings, several shops, and numerous barracks and workers housing. (Figures 4 and 5) 2. Chang-Chip Iron and Steel Plant - A medium sized iron and steel plant is located eleven nm north-northwest of Chang-Chih. (Figure 6) 3. Chang-Chih Thermal Power Plant - Located ten rim north of Chang- Chih, this large modern thermal power plant reportedly was constructed in 1961. (Figure 7) It. Chang-Chih Airfield - This minor civil airfield, located two nm northeast of the city, has T000 foot sod runway and very limited facilities. (Figure 8) No missile or nuclear energy association can be related to the above installations, however their presence could account for the appearance of military engineer units in the area of Chang-Chih. 25 Approved For Releasp 2'ffFk9T' 25 Appiuved For ReII aS EGR;6T 1 USAF Pilotage Chart, Sheet PC 382C, 2nd ed.
