One charging crane was also completed with two others under construction. Two smokestacks were at the northern side of the workshop. One collapsed in the Sumner of 1949. For sketch of the open-hearth plant see Annex Ton 4. a., The location o: the plants under construction ww as pro- viousl.y determined and is correctly recorded in this report. b. Being previously observed in an early stage of con- struction, the plant Layout was not completely covered, and, therefore, the attached sketches and le; ends are definitely valuable, especially as Annex 1 is the first sketch to give such drytailed information. ',' Ith most of the plant Installations located northwest of the power plant, and with this area closely observed by source,, it Is assumed that the whole sketch approaches facts pnr- ticularly as the location of the fain plant departments such as rolling mill, open-hearth plant, and rover plan corresponds with previous Information. '..rile earlier in- formation reported modern conveyer belts connecting coal bunkers and boiler house of the po,.er plant, this report -?ives details on the modern coal bunters of that section . ex 3) c. The production of construction materials is still ac- ceptable as true for late 1949. Since later information did not indicate any operation of open?he:rth furnaces, the second source must have mistaken a test in January 1949 for real operation, ..r ~lt s {t ~..1 3 1 .l 1 . .. 1 it...3 .. ? ..... 25X1A Approved For Release 2002/08/08 : CIA-RDP82-00457R006500430017-2 Approved For Release 2002/08/08 : CIA-RDP82-00457R006500430017-2 CONF IDEI'JT I..aL~/C^7 ?Tri(T~R~ O1L/USy ~~OFFICIALS ONLY V JS 1St:L INi-LJLLIGENCi AGENCY D 4 l~~nnexo I~ Plant layout of the metal v orking plants in Rustav . 2 9 Foundry 3.
