the area is very congooted and house-keeping i not good@ There
are junked vehicles, miscellaneous parts, etc. _rad all over
the place. Parking is at a premium because it appears th.t no
one throws' anything away nor disposes of the junk*

The enventoxy is well laid out and the housekeeping is
excellent. For security reasons (the mechanics strip vehicles
and sell the yarts), "sold" vehicles are parked in this area
causing a great deal of congestion.. The generLl housekeeping
is very poorg with junk all over the place. Furthemore t the
mechanics must walk a distuae of one and a hu.l blooks for
parts*
The UU bAs a people problem. The area around, the gates
of the two facilities is always congested with people and
vehicles, und it is not uncommon, to have from 50 to 75 people
infront of the gates. Many-of these are UCTU drivers and
people looking for work, however there is a small housing
complex adjacent to the gate and as a result there are many
women and children milling about*
The Traffic Manager has his office in the main office area
where people =ust pass to rent vehicles, and drivers and
vt-ittors coming and going so it is not uncommon to have 50 to
75 people milling around in an area approximately 20' by 40'.
This is very Aisruptive and the visiting and, comiza and going
of people is for no apparent. purposee.
