Appendix: Attached as an appendix is a rough sketch showing the rcute followed by the new underground fuel pipeline. 1. CONSTRUCTION OF NEW PIPELINE (a) A new underground fuel pipeline has very recently been completed. This extends between the fuel installation now under construction in Jagen 133 (approximately 9 kms. SW of GROSS DOELLN airfield) and the dispersal system at the southern and of the N/S taxiway adjoining the village of KLEIN DOELLN. (b) This pipeline extends from approximately MR 92757550 (adjoining the rail spur leading into the site) eastwards along the southern side of the main GROSS DOELLN/ZEHDENICK road and crosses under the roadway on the eastern outskirts of KLEIN DOELLN, 6 metres west of km. stone 6.5. At this point the new pipeline proceeds northwards through the a:rfield perimeter fence and into the dispersal area. The terminal could not be ascertained. (a) The trench containing this pipeline is approximately 1j metres in depth but it was not ascertained how many pipes were actually laid. (d) At MR 92757550 the new pipeline joins ;with another, earlier-laid pipeline which proceeds northwards in the direction of the main airfield rail spur. This second pipeline is reported to extend as far as the airfield itself, but the exact route is not known. NO. 1 STORAGE DEPOT This storage depot is now strongly guarded by S.A.F. sentries, who also patrol the woodlands between the barbed wire fence and the nearby GROSS DOELLN/ZEMENICK road. This roadway is still open to the public but its entire northern side, approximately between Jagen 104 and the Eastern side of KLEIN DOELLN is sign-posted "Speergebiet - Betroten V:,,rboten". l j. 1 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/04/07: CIA-RDP80T00246AO37500160001-8 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/04/07: CIA-RDP80T00246AO37500160001-8 MISCELLANEOUS The only German workmen employed on construction in this area are concentrated at the fuel depot site in Jagen 133.
