There is no crawl space beneath the general office or plant. The floor is solid cement and is not covered with any carpeting. The roof and interior ceiling are separated by a distance of 4 inches at the northeast end and diverge Slightly at a point where the general office connects with the a plant proper. The ceiling rafters run in a northeast--south- he, east direction. The interior cement block walls are not a panelled but are painted. Partitions in the general office , . are constructed of frame and finished with a type of composition a panelling. This composition panelling, each piece of which a is approximately 3 x 5 feet, is also used on the ceiling and a 14 inch molding covers the joints. It is proposed that one variable reluctance microphone, a MUTT Transmitter and an AC power Supply be installed between — the ceiling and roof at the point designated "X" on sketch 3. Ingress to this point can be made by removing the ceiling ~ r exhaust fan. It is not known how extensively this ceiling exhaust fan is used, but inasmuch as this office is air- conditioned, it is surmised that use of the exhaust fan is _ limited. This unit would be energized by running a pair of wires from point "X" southeast between the rafters. to the - southeast wall of subject's private office and thence drop- ping the wires down the wall making the connection to the a wall box of the designated electrical wall outlet. It is © 7 believed that the amount of power consumption of the MUTT Transmitter is not critical. It is also believed that one transmitter maintained in the ceiling will afford effective coverage. Investigation and observation reflects that it is practical and secure to mount the remote receiving equipment in the second floor office of the Westinghouse Plant, designated by a star in sketch No. 1. The Westinghouse Electric Plant is. not in use and is devoid of equipment. It is maintained by a Small staff of maintenance employees plus three guards who alternate shifts. Contact under pretext with the manager of real estate for the Westinghouse Corpora- tion has assured authority and security in this respect. It is proposed that a box capable of being locked be used to house the remote receiving equipment. This box will be | fastened in the afore-mentioned office near other unused telephone boxes in the immediate vicinity of a window for disguise and will be energized through the plant's 117 volt : : : . - stl age mp dt “ Docld: 32332976 Page 5

The receiving antenna can, if necessary, be extended outside the window and-will not be obvious in view of other wires connected to and handing from this building. It is believed that this radio-microphone technique is - 7 technically feasible for the following reasons: l. There is an unobstructed aerial passage between the North Star Cement Block Company and the second floor of the Westinghouse Plant; the distance between these two locations is approximate ly 475 feet (see sketch No. 1) whereas it is believed that under ideal conditions, the range of the MUTT might be as high as one-half mile. oo, i 2.

Prior | to this, all logical employees, associates, and relatives of the subject aS well as the Subject himself, who might come to the plant will be placed under surveillance.
