Definite individual. building function cannot be given except in the several cases (items 58 6, 118 and 1.6 on drawing), which were recognized from a ground, photograph. The overall plant area covers approximately 460 acres, with roof cover of the facilities measurable on the basis of the poor-qua,l.ity photog- raphy estimated at 38 8748 575 square feet. The discernible components of the plant are shown on the accompa- nying line drawing and described in the key to annotations. 25X1 D 25X1 D 25X1A 25X1A Aerial Photography Ground Photography MAPS AND CHARTS SA.C o US Air Target Chart, Series 2008 Sheet 0234-Z1A8 1st ed, Apr 59, scale 1:2.00, 000 (S) ACIC?
