(2)   THE SALVAGE OF MATERIAL OR EQUIPMENT AT 
SALMAN PAK CHEMICAL/BIOLOGICAL WARFARE RESEARCH PRODUCTION 
AND STORAGE FACILITY, IRAQ'S ONLY CONFIRMED BIOLOGICAL 
WARFARE FACILITY, HAD RESUMED BY 3 APR.  THIS IS THE FIRST 
SALVAGE ACTIVITY [      (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4)    ] AT THIS FACILITY 
SINCE THE END OF 
OPERATION DESERT STORM AIR STRIKES.  THE ACTIVITY, [      (b)(1) 
sec 1.3(a)(4)    ] AT ONE OF THE FOUR HEAVILY DAMAGED 12-FRAME 
BUNKERS 
IN THE SENSITIVE STORAGE AREA, CONSISTED OF THE EXCAVATION 
OF TWO ENTRANCES INTO THE SIDES OF THE BUNKER.  THE IRAQIS 
COULD BE ATTEMPTING TO SALVAGE MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT 
OR THEY MAY BE TRYING TO REMOVE SENSITIVE MATERIAL IN 
ANTICIPATION OF INTERNATIONAL INSPECTION TEAMS. 
(3)   SIGNIFICANT SALVAGE OPERATIONS WERE 
EVIDENT AT THE BAGHDAD NUCLEAR RESEARCH CENTER, WHERE VEHICULAR 
ACTIVITY WAS [      (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4)    ] AT FACILITIES IN THE 
RESEARCH AREA. 
THIS REPRESENTS THE HIGHEST LEVEL OF SALVAGE OPERATIONS 
[      (b)(1) sec 1.3(a)(4)    ]AT THE FACILITY SINCE THE 
CONCLUSION OF DESERT STORM. 
AS IN THE CASE OF THE CHEM/BIO RESEARCH FACILITY, IT IS 
UNCLEAR WHETHER THE SALVAGE ACTIVITY IS TO REMOVE MATERIAL 
AND EQUIPMENT OR TO TRY TO RECOVER SENSITIVE MATERIAL PRIOR 
TO INTERNATIONAL INSPECTION.  HOWEVER, IN LIGHT OF IRAQ'S 
PRONOUNCEMENT ON 19 APR OF HAVING "NO WEAPONS GRADE NUCLEAR 
MATERIAL, RESEARCH, DEVELOPMENT OR SUPPORT FACILITIES AND NO 
ACTIVITIES RELATED TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS COMPONENTS OR 
SUB-SYSTEMS", THE LATTER IS LIKELY.
