CHAPTER II, SECTION 3
water pumps furnished water to the system from
a new 16-inch well reservoir filled from the existing Navy cube intake structure on the shore.
The generators in the Generator Station

were air-cooled, and the radiators were ducted
to the 214-foot or 314-foot-square exhaust openings. The fumes were exhausted through piping
to flapper gates located just above the fill over

214 feet thick and the roof was 5 feet thick. The

room within the building was 10 feet square
by 5 feet high with entry through a 4-footsquare opening in the roof. Removable stepped
concrete plugs provided the closure for the opening. A canvas-covered, wood-framed weather

shield, 8-foot-square by 7-foot-high, was included over the roof opening.

the building.

The generator exhaust and intake blast
doors were pneumatically operated from two
signal activated solenoid controls located in
Room E. A control was utilized for all the vent
doors in each room. A manual by-pass system

was included. A coaxial cable air dryer was installed in existing Room A and piped into the
existing manifold in Room B.
The electrical facilities were rehabilitated

to the ‘‘as-built” condition, with several changes

and

additions.

Two

35-kw and one 25-kw

generators were installed in Room E to provide
instrument power, and two 100-kw generators

were installed in Room F for utility power. The
two utility generators were connected through
disconnect switches to a common bus to allow
parallel operation. Each of the instrument gen-

lighting panels were connected by three doublethrow disconnect switches to the generator buses.
By combination of switch positions, any gen-

The connector pit consisted of an earth-barricaded, re-inforced concrete structure 15x28x13
feet. The front wall, erected to ensure that the

structure would be stable through all events,
was sloped 1% to 1 and was 16 feet thick at
the base. The other walls and floor slab were

diameter pipe. One structure was to be 19x26x13

feet high with 3-foot-thick concrete walls, a
sloped front wall 14 feet thick at the base, and
314-foot-thick floor slab. The structure was

divided into two compartments, each with three

layers of 20-inch-thick removable slabs for the
roof.

The other structure was to be 19x35x18foot-high with 7-foot-thick concrete walls, a

sloped front wall 19 feet thick at the base, and

a 414-foot-thick floor slab. The structure con-

tained a single compartment with five layers

of removable roof slabs stacked to compose a

714-foot-thick roof.

All compartments of both structures were

to contain lead lining interlocked against shielding leaks. The requirement for the station was
cancelled prior to construction.
