the construction of concrete foundations by September 1949?
Thsplsnt to expected to begin operations by the end of the Five-Tear Plan.

Preliminary work on enlarging the existing equipment and installing new egniF-
ment at the Subotioa thermoelectric power nlalrt is now taking place. At present,
the plant uaanot supply its industrial consumers with sufficient power without the
help of the 'bnta power plant.
A new etean boiler, twice as large as the old one, will be installed. To
supply water to the old and new boilers, a large new reservoir has been built. An
experimental installation w'itb.moving chain grates has been finished. All controls
are now concentrated on one panel. New air pipes have been added in order to
increase the burning efficiency of the ftrrnace. As a result, a cheaper quality of
coal can be used.
