Gap Filler Programme
On attached file S949-105 TD3037A are a memorandum and minutes concerning a review of the Gap Filler Programme occasioned by the slippage in the radar equipment delivery dates and uncertainty as to the equipment's future status. In light of the direction and information contained in the memorandum it is considered we revise the instructions passed to DOT Real Estate last August (see letters at flagged folios hereunder).
In the attached draft letter Transport is requested to instruct its agents that construction will not commence at the 19 sites shown as Group "B" in our letter of 10 August last year until 1964 and that the only action to be taken is to attempt to obtain on a routine, rather than priority basis, options valid until Dec 64 on the properties involved. One of the sites originally listed in this group, Eaglet River, has been deleted from the programme. Insofar as the 25 sites which have reached varying stages of completion are concerned, the property acquisition phase of the project is to be completed.
If you concur in the revised instructions set out in the letter at flyleaf, may it be signed and forwarded, please.
