A POL storage area is located on the eastern
outskirts of Pinsk (52-07N 026-07E) on the south
side of the Brest-Litovskaya rail line (Figure 1).
The installation is served by a spur from this
line and has access via all-weather secondary
roads to the Pinsk urban area. A SA-0 SAM
site and related facilities are located approxi-
mately 4.5 kilometers (km) west and a Military
Barracks Area is located approximately 10
km west.
The secured POL storage area covers ap-
proximately 17 acres and contains 11 vertical
tanks and 2 rows of probable horizontal tanks.
The installation was covered by four KEYHOLE
Missions between
Comparative analysis of KEYIIOLEphotog-
raphy of in-
dicates no apparent change in the level of usage.
This installation is connected by a rail spur
to the Brest-Litovskaya railroad line. The spur
appears to pass through the fenced installation
to form a "Y", with a return track outside the
installation.
This storage area is served by secondary
all-weather roads with connections to the pri-
mary roads of Pinsk.
