Of particular interest in the foregoing work was the planning and implementation of Projects for TG 7.1 administration - laboratory spaces and for the weather stations. _ Ineary October 1955, criteria were first re- ceived for space requirements of TG 7.1 on Fred. The proposal then submitted to the Contractor called for the construction of three buildings Figure 2-177. Page 2-198 with a total of 10,500 square feet and the rehabilitation of Buildings 633, 634, 635, 636, and 640 with an additional power supply from portable generators in view of the critical power situation. at Fred. Completion of this project was requested by 1 March 1956. To meet this date the design was based on materials that could be procured on acceptable dates. Final authorization for the construction of Buildings 686 and 687, and the rehabilitation of Buildings 633, 634, 635, 636, and 640 was received on 26 January, at which time a completion date of 15 March was requested. At that time, the Contractor was informed that in lieu of Contractorfurnished generators, four 60 KW Governmentfurnished generators would be forthcoming to provide power for Buildings 633, 634, and 635 and that power for the other buildings would be provided from the island system. Completion could not be met by the requested date of 15 March because of the late receipt of electrical items and someof the dehumidifying equipment resulting primarily from the late firming of requirements for this project. About 22 March the project was only 57 per cent complete; approximately one-third of the space was made available to the users. Through a concentrated effort, this project was, for all practical purposes, completed on 21 April 1956, with progress reported at 97 per cent. TG 7.1 Laboratory and Administration Building - Fred
