Stations 40 - Engebi, 41 - Muzin, 42 — Runit — J-7, LASL.

The

sketches for these stations were given to H&N on May 6, 1950, Stations
consisted of a reinforced concrete well 5 feet, 2 inches, by 3 feet, by

3 feet, 6 inches deep capped with a 1/2 inch plate cover,

Over the well

was a rack 7 feet high and 7 feet wide made of 2 inch standard pipe. The
electrical lines entered the well via a 2 inch conduit 10 feet long that
was buried a foot beneath a 3 inch macadam surfacing, The surfacing
covered an area 25 feet by 30 feet.

The front of the well had a lead

shield 12 inches thick which was also extended one foot along the side
walls, Originally Station 42 was located on The Aomon Group, but it
was moved to Runit on October 4, 1950, It was relocated on Runit on
October 26, 1950, in order to clear the camp area,
Stations 50a, b, c, d, and e - Runit, The Aomon Group, and Engebi ~- NBS.

As these stations measured radiation, the use of lead and limonite concrete was necessary, These stations had a limonite pad 8 feet, 6 inches

by 8 feet by 1 foot, 4 inches thick, the top of which was flush with the
ground level, Through the center of this pad was a 6 inch diameter hole

with a 4 inch thick lead shield around the hole,

Under the pad was a

well with inside dimensions of 2 feet, 6 inches by 2 feet, by 1 foot,
8 inches deep. The well had plain concrete walls 12 inches thick. A
center section of the pad 2 feet, 10 inches by 3 feet, 4 inches could
be lifted out to give access to the well. Immediately adjacent was a

redwood battery box 5 feet by 2 feet by 3 feet deep, Station 50a had
two wells under the pad; therefore the pad was & feetby 11 feet in area,
The original sketches were furnished on February 8, 1950. The necessary
tolerances were given March 3, 1950, The battery boxes were added July 1,

1950, and NBS approved the drawings on July 18, 1950,

Stations 50b, c,

and d, Engebi and 50d, The Aomon Group, were relocated on August 4, 1950.
Stations 50b, c, and d, Runit, and 50d, The Aomon Group, were relocated

on September 6, 1950,

Stations 51a, b, c, and d — Runit, The Aomon Group, and Engebi — NBS.
Essentially the same as Station 50, except that no lead collar is needed,
The sketches for these were furnished June 1, 1950, On June 14, 1950,
J-Division requested work stop until new sketches were forwarded by NBS.
These were received on June 28, 1950. The battery boxes were added on

July 1, 1950, and NBS approved the drawings on July 18, 1951.
Stations 52 and 53 - Runit and Engebi - NBS.

On March 3, 1950

request was made for designs to be prepared for NBS Stations 52 and 53

based upon outline sketches of the requirements as prepared by the User.

The essential requirement of the structureswas to provide a unit which

would support a considerable number of collimator tubes all alligned at

different angles with the horizontal plane and protected with a minimm
amount of limonite concrete shielding, all as established by the User,

It was also required that information could be salvaged from these units
after the test,
