1. The "Andreyev" Mete llurgicE-1 Plant (Taganrogskiy t'etc llurgicheskiy Savod 25X1
in. Andreyeva) was located on the north cF-.stern p:erireter of Taganrog
(470242N lat/38?57 0E long)., innediately 1y the S-ca of Azov. About 1.5 10,
north of the plant there was a 2irinnasmann tucc plant and another tube plant
which both belonged to the "Andreyev" enterprise.
The "Andreyev" 'Tetcilurgicel !lent w.s connected pith the rein rsilroed
line, and many tracks served the factory area, About 10 factory-o~rned loco-
motives were evailcbie fcr factory rurpo es, in particular for the shipment
of materials from the :-tcel detzrtnsnt of the plant to the tube plant in the
north, A streetcar stop was in the vicinity of the factc y area;.'
