[    b.2.    ][   (b)(7)(D)   ] Dec 90

 1.     In response to reference (a) the following is submitted:

     a.                       The [      (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4)    ] 
storage bunker identified at the Qabatiyah storage facility is a 
relatively new bunker constructed within the last two years.  It 
is a 12-frame bunker with refrigeration equipment.  Unlike the 
other sixteen identified [      (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4)    ] storage 
bunkers, this bunker is separate from the ammo storage facility 
and has its own security fence.  Two of these types of bunkers are 
located at the Salman Pak BW facility
while the remaining refrigerated bunkers are located at ammo 
storage facilities.  They could be for BW storage or for the 
storage of electronics, fuel air explosives, or smart weapons.  
Storage of chemical weapons is another possibility.  Refrigeration 
would help extend the shelf-life of Iraq's unstable unitary 
chemical fills.
