THESE SMALLER "SATELLITE" STRUCTURES ARE ALL SOMEWHAT SIMILAR IN DESIGN AND ALL HAVE THE SAME PURPOSE ( SEE SKETCH, PAGE 3). DISTANCES BETWEEN THE CENTRAL STRUCTURE AND ITS SATELLITES APPEARS TO VARY ( SEE SKETCH, PAGE 4). THE UNDERGROUND TUNNELS CONNECTING THE STRUCTURES ARE APPROXIMATELY 30 METERS IN DIAMETER (SEE SKETCH, PAGE 5). THE SMALLER, OR"SATELLITE" STRUCTURES ARE MOSTLY UNDERGROUND, WITH SEVERAL LEVELS, EXTENDING TO A DEPTH OF APPROX. IMATELY 480 METERS ( SEE SKETCH, PAGE 6) PHONETICALLY, THE NAME OF KRAZNYAR, KRAZYAK, OR KRETCHMAR COMES TO MIND. THERE ALSO SEEMS TO BE AN ADDITIONAL PART OF THE WORD , WHICH , IN GENERIC TERMS , MEANS " STATION" OR "STOP" ( SEE SKETCH, PAGE7). THERE IS ALSO A TWO-PART FUNCTION ASSOCIATED WITH THERE STRUCTURES , ONE IS OPEN AND ABOVEGROUND, THE OTHER IS COVERT , SECRET , AND UNDERGROUND, HANDLE VIA SKEET CHANNELS ONLY Approved For Release 2000/08190 - CL RDP96-00789R003501030005-5

However, its present function was created by using some sort of natural feature which has been further modified by man to be ideally suited for this purpose. It has since been realized that there are some very grave mistakes, flaws, or problems in utilizing this facility for this purpose. But, there are not many alternatives available at this time. There is a veil of Secrecy surrounding this facility. If the unsafe nature of this complex became public knowledge, the entire world would be outraged.
