PROCEDURES:

1.2 PHYSICAL DATA

Data referred to below is furnished for the Contractor's information.

However, it is expressly understood that the Government will not be responsible for interpretation or conclusion drawn there from by the

Contractor.

a. The physical conditions indicated on the drawings and in the specifications are the result of site investigations.

b. Geographic Conditions

(1) The Azores are comprised of a group of nine small islands, politically an integral part of Portugal, lying in the North

Atlantic, about 2,300 miles east of New York and about 980 miles west of Lisbon, Portugal. The islands have a total area of 1,581 square miles with a total population of about 360,000. The economic mainstays of the Azores are fishing and agriculture.

There is no heavy industry, and facilities for repairing machinery are limited. Most tools, implements, and farm utensils are handmade.

(2) The climate is mild and the humidity high. Average annual temperature is 63 degrees F. Diuranal fluctuation in temperature is approximately 10 degrees. Highest recorded temperature, 80 degrees F, lowest recorded temperature, 40 degrees F. The yearly average rainfall is 44.80 inches; the monthly average rainfall and probability of rain is as follows:

High winds occur from December through March. Average winds during this period are 11.6 knots. The recorded high winds are:

November 90 knots, December 72 knots, January 90 knots, February

128 knots, March 106 knots, April 89 knots.

(3) Terceira Island measures roughly 11 by 18 miles, almost entirely bordered by high cliffs. The terrain is hilly and dominated by volcanic ranges, including two extinct craters. The airfield is located on the northeast side of the island. The total population of Terceira Island is approximately 80,000. The city of Angra do

Heroismo, capitol of the district, has a population of about

30,000; and the nearest town to the airfield, Praia da Vitoria, has a population of about 11,000.
