SUMMARY
Newer 079 indicated that target
Structures serve to house a scientific, nuclearerelated,
research and development effort by the Soviet Union.
The
research and development effort is predominantly related to
Soviet (Ground to Air) Air Defense capabilities.
Nuclear
patterns of explosions
are of significant
importance to ongoing
== wretch.
The
oppms
studies at this site.
concepts of "sound and atmospheric conditions" are also related
to the research effort. There are two distinct groups of
scientists involved in this project:
a seasoned group of
scientists, and a "student" group of scientists.
Road access to
the target site described as dusty and gritty, appears difficult,
almost impassable.
The results of this activity appears to have
a bearing on SALT treaty agreements between the US and the Soviet
Union.
The disposal of nuclear waste represents a continuing
and sizeable issue
of
concern.
In about February 1989,
activities related to
general
this target site will become apparent to
atthattime
the US.
The resultant information gained by the US will be a
matter of serious concern to the US.
