CONSTRUCTION This facility (completed in 1967) consists of five 75 x 75-ft. x 6-in. thick concrete launch pads located on each of the East and West Peninsulas. The pads are separated by protective berms (see F&S No. 02066) and connected by cabling running to the center of each pad. The center to center distance beween pads is 150-185-ft. A signal cable runs adjacent to each row of pads and connects into the island cable trough system. Each pad is equipped with a con- crete pull box to provide 60 and 100-cycle electrical power. The two sets of launch pads were constructed identical to allow the location of In-Flight Control Vans on the East Peninsula during launch from the West Peninsula and vice-versa. Subsequent deletion of the requirement to launch to the East from the East Peninsula has eliminated the requirement for this reversibility. 1-6 Ee o ma VOLI April 1969
