Project is required to install intrusion detection alarm (IDA)
systems in 69 ammunition magazines and one monitor panel in a
guard house. Magazines and guard house are to be constructed
by NATO funding for US use. IDA systems required by US Army
physical security standards are not NATO supported items. If
this project is not approved, US Army physical security regula-
tions will require the use of an additional four guards per shift
per day.

Remote Control Substations

This project is required to provide remote control monitoring
of the electric substations at Sagamihara Dependent Housing
Area (SDHA) and Sagami General Depot. The system must be of
the type recognized and approved by the Government of Japan
and accepted by the local power company to tie into their
66,000-volt system as an unmanned remote controlled/monitored
site. Under the Japanese "Electrical Enterprise Law", Law
No. 170 of 1964 (Showa Year 39) and Ordinance No. 61 of 1965
(Showa Year 40), any substation receiving power of 50,000
volts or more must be manned or properly controlled/monitored.
These regulations are enforced by the Government of Japan's
Ministry of International Trade and Industries. The Status
of Forces Agreement (SOFA) provisions require compliance with
these regulations. The Tokyo Electrical Power Company provides
all commercial power (66,000 volts) to the three substations.
Therefore, each of the three widely scattered substations
(Camp Zama, SDHA, and Sagami General Depot) is currently
staffed with four qualified operators to man the substations 24
hours per day, 7 days a week. This represents a triplication
of effort. If this project is not accomplished, these instal-
lations will not be able to reduce operating costs through this
Labor Saving Capital Investment Program (LSCIP) project.

Since only four persons at the Camp 7ama substation are required to operate the proposed system, the other eight operators can be reassigned to do other productive work. Also, there is no available space in the nearby facilities to accommodate the proposed system.

Tactical Equipment Shop
Steam System

This project is required to provide an adequate indoor all-
weather high pressure water and steam cleaning facility for
tactical wheeled and tracked vehicles in support of Direct
Support and General Support depot level maintenance. No
indoor cleaning facilities are available at Camp Carroll.
Minimal, inadequate cleaning is performed out-of-doors without
high pressure water. This results in incomplete cleaning in
good weather and none during inclement weather; consequently
vehicle maintenance suffers. Without this project, adequate
vehicle cleaning facilities will continue to be unavailable,
adversely affecting vehicle maintenance and combat readiness.

This project is required to provide an adequate indoor all-
weather tracked and wheeled vehicle inspection facility in
support of the Fighth US Army direct support, general support
and depot level maintenance at the installation. This requires
the inspection of 3,600 vehicles per year or approximately 16
inspections daily at one hour each to determine work required
prior to maintenance and repair of the vehicles and to assure
their reliability before returning them to using organizations.
Inspections of marginal adequacy are now performed outdoors,
frequently under adverse weather conditions and without the aid
of diagnostic equipment. As a result, mission effectiveness
of both the maintenance activities and users of the vehicles is
adversely affected because vehicles must be combat ready and
able to support military operations for extended periods of time.

Without this project, present methods of inspecting vehicles will pontinue resulting in poor quality of maintenance work, unreliable performance and excessive deadline of equipment with subsequent detrimental effect on the combat missions of organizations served by the maintenance activities.

This project is required to provide facilities to maintain
and repair flat bed trailers at the Material Support Center,
Camp Carroll, Korea, which provides these services for all
DOD-owned flat bed trailers in Korea. The Material Support
Center currently maintains and repairs 120 long trailers with
120 more scheduled for delivery over the next several years.
Maintenance and repairs are now performed in the Heavy
Equipment Maintenance Shop. This necessitates deferring
maintenance on tactical and combat vehicles which would be
performed if the trailers could be repaired elsewhere. No
other facilities are available for trailer maintenance. Existing
facilities will continue in use adversely affecting equipment
readiness.

This project is needed to replace existing temporary
quonset-type structures by providing adequate, permanent
billets for the unaccompanied officers at Camp Red Cloud.
The existing billets are outdated, having been built in
1953 as expedient housing. Because of age, these buildings
have deteriorated, and consequently require frequent and
costly repairs and maintenance to keep them in barely
habitable condition. The roofs and walls leak during rain;
poor insulation makes heating expensive and ineffective,
and energy conservation is impossible. Extensive upgrade
and maintenance is needed to retain these structures in a
useable condition, yet they would still be temporary-type
buildings with limited upgrade capability. Without this
project, the existing structures will remain in use with
the resulting continued detrimental effect on troop morale,
and subsequent mission readiness.

Camp Edwards (PN 761)

General Purpose Auditorium

This project is required to provide a general purpose
auditorium for the 550 military personnel at Camp Edwards.
This building will also be used as a classroom for troop
instruction. There is no theater at Camp Edwards. Troops
stationed at Camp Edwards are not provided adequate access
to movies, USO shows and similar activities. The nearest
installation is Camp Howze approximately five miles away.
It is difficult for soldiers to travel to this and other
installations. Also, an adequate amount of classroom space
is not available at Camp Edwards for troop instruction.
this project, a theater/auditorium will not be available,
adversely affecting troop morale and training.

This project is required to provide a handball court and an
exercise room addition to the existing gymnasium at Camp Red
Cloud. This project also provides an upgraded ventilation
system for the gymnasium. The existing gymnasium provides only
basketball court area, showers, administrative and storage space.
This facility serves 2,300 U.S. Troops stationed at Camps Red
Cloud, LaGuardia, Kyle, Sears, Jackson and Falling Water.

This project is needed to enhance the probability of
survival of command and control communication from
Camp Tango and Taegu Air Base to locations in and out
of Korea by construction of revetments and fencing to
protect communications vans and power generators. Electronic
and communications control equipment are vulnerable to small
weapons attack. If this project is not approved, the
communications operational capabilities to command and
control forces will be seriously impaired.

This project is required for the installation of intrusion
detection alarm (IDA) systems in 82 ammunition magazines
and one monitor panel in a guard house. Magazines and guard
house are to be constructed by NATO funding for US use. IDA
systems required by US Army physical security standards are
not NATO supported items. If this project is not approved,
US Army physical security standards will require the use of
an additional four guards per shift per day. This manpower
authorization is neither currently available nor programmed.
IDA equipment will be provided by funds other than MCA.
