The enterprises are aesponsible for the expansion and supply (as coverm) of fuel depots for the troops as well civilians. Each enterprise is an independent:accountency unit. There are about 18 such enterprises in the following locations: Szczecin Bydgoszcz Gdansk Olsztyn Grunberg- Wroclaw Warsaw City Warsaw Wojewodstwo Lodz Krakow Poznan Oppole Lublin Bialystock Katowice Kielc Rzeaow Radon Capacities: The capacities of the various enterprises vary and are Z, All of the enterprises are subordinate to a central office 0 in Warsaw located at Ul.

Secret Department for Militarr Orders of Fuel This Secret Department is a component of the Trade Department of every Wojewodatwo enterprise for fuel and lubricants. The Polish army for example i.e. each unit (garrison or air field - but not squadron or regiment) orders in writing from the appropriate Wojewodstwo enterprise the necessary fuel and lubricants. The wojewodatwo enterprise passes the order through the secret department after registering it directly to the appropriate refinery of the enterprise or in can of overloading to another refinery. The pro- cess is centrally controlled in Warsaw. The ordered fuel as well as oil and fats are delivered by the appropriate refinery directly to the military unit or to tiaoc a designated station if no rail lines exist to reach the military object, where they will be picked up in tankers. At the same time the Wojewodatwo enterprise is informed of this action. Orders from the military as well as the civilian sector 4K Treater amountsmust be placed with the wojewodstwo prier enterprise three weeks % to every quarter. If orders are placed later than that the refineries normally will require about four weeks to fulfill the order. In case of emmergency - or war, all civilian orders become void. J& plimas" the lack of transportation space, particularly tank oars is creating difficulties for the supply of the civilian sector. The Polish army on the other hand has its own transport facilities admin- istered by its own organization. This organization is subordinate to the M sirs .efense fim ice' and has the cover designation of something like"transport 11 enterprise for fuel ithout exception all modern and large tank cars belong to this comp e'sdeV1 ce that is, the Polish army.

Definitely without the"Warszawskis - that is the undeniable sign of army transport material. 6. Extent of Orders and nsumation The annual plan and turnover figures of the Koasalin enterprise are administered and kept secret by the Trade Department and Sales Group of the chief bookkeeping office. The civilian use during the month of May to September 1957 was approximately as follows: gasoline - 60 to 80 cubic meters daily; diesel about 100 cu. meters; and oil/fat about 15 tons daily. This consumption is only for Koszalin Wojewodztwo and should be similar to the consumption of other wojewodatwo with agricultural characteristics such as Olsztyn, Bialystok, Lublin, and Gru ierg. In addition to the necessary depots/those for the civilian sector 11ould also be listed, since these depots and gas stations will, in case of war, supply the Pblish army. The followirg~iet is not restricted to s wojewodztwo Keasalin. Depots and wholesale plaa4 located in other wojewodstwos are administered by the appropriate wojewodztwo enterprise. For the sake of cover, therefore, all military supply bases are supplied by the appropriate wojewodztwo enterprise for fuels and lubricants. 7.

The supply for military and Q:4'w,o e1 civilian needs has been guaranteed to last for only one year. 8.

The hydrogenation plant Blechownia serves primarily as an intermediate depot for gasoline and diesel and for its cleaning and processing and possibly for the refining of oils and lubricants. 9. Ionorts and Delivery Enterprises Imports from Rupania as listed under numb stockpile are shipped via rail through Hungary to the refineries in the south of Poland and via tankers to Gdansk and Szcsecin.Imports from the Soviet Union are shipped via the above listed depots.

In the case of gasoline - 5 percent (possibly 8 percent) motoroil; in case of diesel - 6 percent motor oil; no allocation is made for machine, transformer, and compressor oils because the supply is adequate. 11. Large Enterorisea with Independent Storage Tanks and msly FGRs; POMs; State Expediting Enterprises PKS; State Construction Firms; Enterprises for Domestic Trade (Food Transports); Enterprises for Livestock Transports - particularly in Ink the Kossalin x=x wojewodztwo; power plant Belgard (Turbine Oil); Paper Factory Tarnowka near Jastrow (Diesel Oil); State Lumber Transport Enterprises (with own tank care for diesel and gasoline)j. In the calculations to arrive at a figure for the total supply of Poland of fuels and oil sufficient for one year should imports come to a stop, the supplies of the above listed large enterprises has been in- cluded. These have in the Kossalin wojewodztso for example a similar supply as the state distributing enterprises, not including the military depots in Stolpmuende and Kolberg. The supply would only last for a year if only the most important civilian and military transports were carried out. 12. General Information Regarding Con_au,tion The consumption in the agricultural wojewodstwos as listed is relatively on a low level. Particularly high is the consumption in the industrial 0 wojewodztwos around Krakow, $ hppole, Wroclaw, Katmwice, and Warsaw City, and Wojewodztwo. In addition also in the area of the so-called "TroMwjmiasta" that is, Gdynia-Zoppot-Gdansk (from the mouth of the Wisla to Putzk) as well as Szozecin-4bznan and Lodz. In the upper Silesian industrial areas the consumption of lubricating oil and fats are particularly heavy, while in the TrojmiaAa the consumption of diesel Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/24: CIA-RDP80T00246A043000150001-7 Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2010/05/24: CIA-RDP80T00246AO43000150001-7 predominates and in Poznan, Wroclaw, and Warsaw, it is the use of gasoline. The Trojmiasta probably has the highest consumption of diesel fuel for shipping and,,fishing industry, It is to be noted in this connection that the Polish whaling fleet, as well as foreign fishing vessels and mtm motor ships because of the favorable foreign exchange rate quits often take on diesel oil there. Even German fisherman prefer when the rthere. opportunity occurs (in storms) to call at Polish harbors and bunkf In this connection it may be noted that German fisherman sell part of their catch to Poland in order to pay for the purchase of fuel. They usually make a pretty good deal; for example, one kilo of fresh herring cost a fisherman 7 Sl. (re-sale 14 Sl.) while one kilo fuel costs 1.4 Si. Exact or reliable estimated values for Szczecin and for the Trojmiasta should be available from the canal authorities of the North Sea-Baltic Canal.
