Radef/Operations Area

This room is part of the Operations Room but it is divided into another area by folding metal doors. These are the same doors as seen in the Operations Room photos. The RADEF area is where reports from radiological monitoring stations would have been recorded and tracked. The RADEF (Radiological Defense) system consisted of a network of radiological monitoring stations that would monitor radiation levels around the area and report to the EOC via radio or telephone. The map on the wall straight ahead in the left photo is the map where these reports would have been plotted. You can see the remains of a map frame on the wall to the left in the same photo. The map at this station was the NUDET (Nuclear Detonation) map. The purpose of this map was to plot the locations of nuclear explosions. This room had water standing in the floor and the wall with the RADEF map had severe water damage. The door to the right of the map goes to the Men's Restroom and Rear Entry Hallway.

The photo on the right is looking towards the end of the room that is next to the dormitory room. The folding doors at the far end are the same doors shown in the dormitory room photo. The stations for Disaster Relief, Transportation, Water Utilities and Clerical were located in this end of the room.
