Specifically, the report presents the results of an investi- gation of an industrial complex under construction at Stavropol (in Kuyby- shev Oblast) to determine if any of its several production facilities are missile-related, and thereby, possibly associated with the nearby Kuru- moch Propulsion Test Complex (see CIA/PIC/JR-1002/60). 1/ Approved For Release 2008/01/03: CIA-RDP78TO5439A000200290018-9 Approved For Release 2008/01/03: CIA-RDP78TO5439A000200290018-9 EUROPEAN U.S.S.R. ..~ rra LOral tC%fl'C r/ Nat:oral cap?tal - - Canal (Selected: Rai.road sr HELSINKI~~ TOCKHpLM til1U~L{t TALL/Nry Mclctcvsk enea, T U R K E Y L ANKARA - KOSTRC4IA SOFIA UL el: k~ye arPe?Ca Lu5/ KIROVGRAD K IVOY ROG Eskrsen,'r ~/?~~~ U~re.1 Scares Gc.e?^ . r U-.red Sr-:ez'~- -.? ?-..

In general, its industries will be commercial in nature, and will include plants for the production of heavy concrete-mixer equipment, synthetic 25X9 rubber, and several unidentified products. DESCRIPTION OF COMPLEX The Stavropol Industrial Complex, covered by photography of is located:=at 53-32N 49-28E, just north of the Zhigulevsk Hydro- electric Power Plant and 35 nautical miles (nm) northwest of Kuybyshev (see Figure 1). The complex, which encompasses an area 2.9 by 2 nm, features a strongly secured unidentified chemical processing plant. It also contains several other large plants, including a heavy concrete-mixer equipment plant and a large synthetic rubber plant 2/ and various uniden- tified plants (see Figure 2). All the plants are apparently devoted to commercial industrial enterprises PIC/JR-1017/61 Approved For Release 2008/01/03: CIA-RDP78TO5439A000200290018-9 Approved For Release 2008/01/03: CIA-RDP78TO5439A000200290018-9 PIC/JR-1017/61 0 STAVROPOL INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX U/C '/ TO 3YZRAN !! 30 NM K U R U M O C H PROPULSION TEST COMPLEXIU/C KURUMOCH 49?43' 30'OO' 4 KU Y B V S H E V OM P L E X ' ? la 3o CH APAY EVSK I5 NM FIGURE 1.
