All other units and rclated cquipment were
salvaged and returned to Elmer for mothbaliing.
On cancellation of the Echo event. the
entire plant at Ursula was dismantled and returned to Elmer tor storage.
On 20 April the distillation repair shop on
Elmer was established in Building 301 in the
space formerly occupied by generators in
that building. This pesmitted the retirement
of the old SANDSTONE quonset type buiding No. 171 and other temporary structures
which had outlived their useful life and so made
space available for construction of new warehouses.
