1998 – Remains at Operations Site – Ray Morley

July, 1998

Most of us are aware of the unique geographical situation which existed at Beaverbank in that the Operations site was located in a different county than that of the domestic site. I understand that there was a distance of a mile or so between these two locations. Amazingly, there were some significant remains of the Operations site during the fall of 1998. The following photos are provided as a reminder of what once stood as an integral part of the Pinetree Line between 1954 and 1964.
