HEADQUARTERS OPERATIONS, MAINTENANCE
AND ENGINEERING DIVISION, OL
WEEKLY REPORT FOR PERIOD ENDING 1 AUGUST 1984
I. Progress Report on Tasks Assigned by DCI/DDCI:
No tasks assigned during this reporting period.
II. Items/Events of Major Interest:
a. Quality of Life: GSA completed replacement of
damaged photographic sections of the map of Paris in the 1B
Corridor of Headquarters Building on 25 July 1984. The new
sections are somewhat lighter than the older sections along the
top, but it is expected that they will weather to match within
approximately 6 months.
Text for the booklet, "Quality of Life in CIA," is
complete and is being sent to the Printing and Photography
Division, OL, for photographic coordination.
b. Ames Building Lobby: Orders have been specified and
sent to Procurement Division, OL, for variegated-color carpet
and oak and vinyl lounge furniture for the lobby of Ames
Building. This completes the coordinated plan for recent
renovations to the lobby.
c. Hydraulic Barricades: Over the past weekend, two
more hydraulic barricades were installed at the George
Washington Memorial Parkway entrance to the Headquarters
Compound. The two remaining hydraulic barricades for the Route
123 entrance have been received and are to be installed
shortly. (U/IIUO)
d. Pedestrian Tunnel Repairs: The A-E firm of Dewberry
and Davis acquired plans of the existing pedestrian tunnel at
the Headquarters Building from GSA during the week of 23 July
1984. The A-E has determined that sufficient site data is
available from recent surveys to proceed with the tunnel
assessment report. Their evaluation report is due 19 August
1984.
e. Drawings/Plans: The final drawings for the
renovations to offices in the SE Corridor of Headquarters
Building for the Office of Soviet Analysis, DDI, were delivered
to the contractor on 31 July for a cost proposal. The
contractor has started demolition in vacant areas.

The second set of preliminary design drawings for
Room GE31, Headquarters Building, were submitted to the Office
of Data Processing, DDA, on 31 July, for their move into that
office.
Preliminary plans were submitted to the Adminis-
trative Officer, National Intelligence Council, DCI, on 27 July
for their temporary relocation to Room 6C19, Headquarters
Building, to make way for the move to Room GH62 by the CAMS
Management Staff, Intelligence Community Staff, DCI
f. Early Removal of Exhibit: Because
is leaving on an unexpected TDY, he removed his ex i i ,
"Presidential Images, Washington to Reagan - 1789-1981," from
the 1D Corridor at Headquarters Building on 1 August 1984, a
month earlier than scheduled. His personal insurance would not
permit anyone other than himself to handle the artifacts.
Nothing will be on display in the 1D Corridor until September
when the Office of Equal Opportunity will sponsor an exhibit
commemorating Hispanic Heritage.
g. Northside Utilit Line Project: The Contractor is
repairing a leak in the underground chilled water supply and
return lines at the Power Plant. GSA indicated that it is felt
one additional leak exists in the supply line. The Contractor
is scheduled to begin refilling and retesting these lines on
1 August 1984.
Assuming the above are the last of the leaks, the
earliest the chilled water lines could be in operation would be
mid-August as the Contractor has approximately one week of work
to tie the underground chilled water lines to the lines in the
Headquarters Building after successful testing. GSA indicated
the Contractor has approximately two weeks of cleanup work
after the chilled water lines are placed in operation.
The new Southside underground chilled water lines to
be installed under the New Building Project were designed to be
of the same material and construction as the Northside lines.
Due to the problems which have been experienced, GSA indicated
that consideration is being given to change the design of the
Southside lines to ductile iron piping.
h. Office of Communication Watch Office: The
construction bid package for the Watch ice was sent to a
selected list of contractors the week of 16 July 1984. Bid
opening date for this project is scheduled for 7 August 1984.
The construction time period is 120 days, which would result in
completion circa 15 December 1984.

A contract will be awarded to the firm of Adler
Display Studio, Inc., in Baltimore, MD, to fabricate and
install a centerpiece world map in the new Watch Office.
i. 7F Operations Center: The 50 percent design drawings
and specifications were received for review by the Engineering
and Construction Branch the week of 23 July 1984. A review
between the Component, E$CB, and the designer, Kidde
Consultants, Inc., is scheduled for 1 August 1984. The final
design package is scheduled for completion by 31 August 1984 to
allow award of a construction contract prior to 1 October 1984.
The estimated construction cost for this project is $560,000.00.
j. Emerson 60Hz UPS: Module No. 5 of the Emerson UPS
had to be shut down on Saturday, 28 June 1984, to protect the
system from over voltage. A malfunction on the control unit of
Module No. 5 brought the system into bypass mode. The computer
load was not affected by the transfer. The UPS was put back on
line by the GSA electrician on duty. Emerson was notified on
30 July 1984.
Having Module No. 5 of the UPS unit out of service
does not reduce the availability of the system to the load.
However, all efforts are being made to repair the unit as fast
as possible.
k. 480 Volt Upgrade - P>`,PD: Comments to final drawings
were transmitted to GSA on 25 July 1984. Project is scheduled
for advertisement for bids 13 August 1984.

Ninety-five percent of the first package has been completed.
Work on the second package started 25 July 1984.
n. 6E60 DDS1T Conference Room Renovations: The
Electrical drawing was completed on schedule. E$CB is awaiting
the Architectural Design Staff input to complete the package.
o. Transformer Relocation: Seal $ Company, Inc.,

p. UPS Expansion: Due to added load requirements from
the Offices o Communications and Data Processing, a proposal
has been requested from Teledyne to expand the existing 60 Hz
UPS unit by one 325 KW module in Room GJ-16. The proposal
should be received by 13 August 1984. There is only 25 KW
remaining capacity available on the existing unit for new load
requirements.
q. Closing of Somat: At the request of the Assistant
Building Manager, McLean Field Office, GSA, if the weather
permits, the Somat operation will be closed on Friday, 3
August, to allow the contractor to prepare and cement the holes
adjacent to the extractor room during the weekend. The
Hammermill will be operated all day on both Friday and Saturday.
r. Renovations at Headquarters Buildin : This past
weekend, GSA installed the sheaves for Unit No. 21 in the
basement fan room, thereby increasing the fan speed and,
hopefully, eliminating the heat problem in the 7D and 7E
Corridors. In a telephone conversation on Tuesday, 31 July,
the National Intellignece Council's logistics officer confirmed
that the problem had been solved.
The GSA Electric Shop completed the rebalancing of
the fire alarm rate-of-rise system in Room GE-31 for the Office
of Communications.
Electrical, masonry, and sheetmetal work have been
completed in Room GD-5309 for the Office of Communications.
Painting of this area was begun this week and, when complete,
the Carpenter Shop will reinstall baseboard molding to finish
the job.
Carpentry and electrical work have been completed in
Room 2D-45 for the Evaluation and Plans Staff, DDO. Painting
is to be scheduled.
