Dear Sir:

Re: Termination of Contracts
Gap Filler Radar Stations, Various

Your letter of 14 May 1963 on file 122-7-193, regarding the estimated cost of moving the material in commercial storage at the lakehead to the Gap Filler Radar Station at Atikokan, has been reviewed.

As the cost of moving this material is in excess of the storage charges for the next year, it has been decided that the material at the lakehead shall remain where it is at present.

Our letter of 14 March 1963 also referred to some material in storage at Sault Ste Marie for Batchawana. Has there been a decision as to moving the material to Elliot Lake?

Yours truly,

(MC Hyslop)
