Warehouse buildings... $250,000 The increase in the amount of war material, both domestic and enemy origin, sent to the Naval Research Laboratory for test and experimentation has overtaxed the available storage space to the extent that some material must be left in the open exposed to the weather. The projected warehouse building will provide the necessary under-cover storage. The dimensions of this building will be 160 by 80 by 16 feet. Houses for technical personnel.. $200, 000 This item is to provide for 20 houses to cost not over $7,500 each, together with necessary access roads and utility services. The remote location of the Naval Research Laboratory Annex at Randle Cliffs, Md., makes it necessary to provide living accommodations for the increased number of scientific and technical personnel carrying on work at this point. The work now being conducted is seriously hampered by the fact that key personnel cannot be available at all times. It is essential that key personnel be present both day and night to carry on the continuity of development and test work. The present personnel are being transported from their homes in the vicinity of Washington daily, with a loss of approximately 3 hours in time each day. With countermeasure work increasing, evening tests and last-minute changes will be the rule and then it will be all the more essential to have the keymen available at all times. Shop facilities-sheet metal and carpenter shop--- $45, 000 Additional facilities are required at this station to provide a small sheet metal and carpenter shop. Improvised facilities now being used are unsafe and not adequate for the expanding work load. A combined shop building 120 by 30 by 15 feet is required with a small lumber storage building 40 by 20 by 20 feet. Total, Randle Cliffs annex. Group IV-B employees... Total, Naval Research Laboratory.. MISCELLANEOUS STRUCTURES AND FACILITIES Improvement and expansion of water supply systems. $795, 000 23, 550 1, 593, 550 This item contemplates authorization and appropriation of funds for the installation of additional water-distribution mains, construction of water-treatment plants, additional wells, pumping equipment, water-storage tanks, and general construction work to insure an adequate water supply at naval shore establishments. The necessity for the projects under this heading has been determined by the Bureau of Yards and Docks through surveys of existing conditions at naval activities.
