Gap Filler Detail

1. Waveguide Detail - Additional information is to be provided on drawing S13-1104-1 to clarify the waveguide outlet details.

2. Heat-Exchanger Mounting Supports - The drawings for the heat-exchanger mountings are to show that these will be provided by the building contractor.

3. Radar Tower - To facilitate the fabrication of the waveguide and associated cables to radar antenna equipment, the position of the radar tower relative to the radar building has been fixed. It is therefore, essential that full details as to its location should appear on both the building and site adaptation drawings.

4. Tower Exterior LIghting - An exterior floodlight is required at the tower. The switch is to be located within the equipment building.

5. Heaters - Location - Electric wall mounted heaters are to be placed so that they do not interfere with the electronic equipment and/or cable ducts.

6. Diesel Louvers - It was suggested that the diesel air intake louvers be made removable to facilitate the removal and installation of diesel-generator units. On sites where all power is supplied by diesel, the removal of one diesel for repair must not interrupt the operation of the other.

Decision - DCEP accept the responsibility to see that these changes and additions are incorporated in the building construction drawings.

Mr Alexander stated that the loading ramp will be detailed on the site adaption drawings which are being prepared by CCE consultants.

A number of observations were made indicating that changes to the facilities in the accommodation area were required:

1. Living Accommodation
   1. Windows should be included to provide ventilation and improve lighting.

   2. The chemical toilet should be located as near to the door, and as far away from the food preparing area as possible.

   3. Water tanks should be re-arranged to increase the living area available.

Decision - DCEP to investigate the time required to make the recommended changes and process them. If the delay so caused does not affect the target dates, changes will be incorporated.

Mr Callaghan informed the meeting of the criteria used in the selection of the 125 KW power units. He stated that the power requirements, ie, electronic, heating of buildings, and housekeeping loads, plus an appropriate safety and expansion factor justified a unit of 125 KW capacity.

Decision - Nil required.

At sites where no commercial power is available, two diesel generator units will be provided: one active and one standby. Routine switch-over will be done by technicians visiting the site. Failure switch-over will be automatic.

Decision - Nil required.

1. At sites with commercial power, the on-site reserve will be 2000 gals. The plans is for a commercial fuel oil contractor to maintain the supply so that a fuel reserve sufficient for 7 days of continuous operation on diesel would be available at all times.

2. At sites with no commercial power the on-site reserve will total 50,000 gals. Provision has been made for the automatic refilling of the day tanks from the main reserve. Resupply at these sites would only be necessary twice a year and would be scheduled to take advantage of the best weather and road conditions.
