Power Plant
You need Apple's Quicktime 3.0 to be able to see Quicktime VR.
The power plant is the heart of the bunker and occupies three levels. The switchgear, emergency generators, chillers, steam generators, pumps, start-up engines and air compressors are located on the main level. The top level houses the air intake ducts and exhaust lines, air filters and low and high pressure housing units. The basement houses three 25,000 gallon water storage tanks and purification equipment, three 14,00 gallon diesel fuel storage tanks, a machine shop and an incinerator. The incinerator is large enough to hold a human body--a handy feature for a unit that was planned to be sealed for up to ninety days. For more on the Power Plant, go to the interview with Fritz Bugas.
