Essentiallv, the procedure was adapted to a Navy code designation
for destination and the Naval Supply Center at Oakland for a delivery
point. Warehousing and material control functions were effectively set
up at both Los Angeles and Oakland, amd although major export packing
was subcontracted, much consolidating and repackaging was done at these
points. In Los Angeles, the space acquired was adjacent to the AEC
general warehouse, and although the general warehousing was not con-

nected primarily with this Project, the liaison thus provided was,
however, beneficial. Similarly, the fact that operating space in
Oakland was set up in the Naval Supply Center afforded valuable liaison,
in that Navy cargo planning sections could anticipate the character of
H & N cargo, and H & N could obtain current information on type and
amount of space available and could influence the selection of deferred
cargo in such a way as to minimize impact on construction progress.
