CRITICAL INDUSTRY REPAIR ANALYSIS, STEEL INDUSTRY.
Abstract
This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the relation of the processing environment and vulnerability of representative raw-material and iron/steel-producing facilities in a critical steel complex to repair and recovery from the effects of thermonuclear attacks. The scope in cludes special attention to salient bottlenecks in the operation and flow of the process from basic raw materials through finished production. Significant potential damage, general repair considerations, and production operations were studied at a large steel complex on the Ohio River in western Pennsylvania; raw materials were studied at the installations of some suppliers of this plant. The processing of the three primary raw materials, coal, ore, and limestone, has been treated both as part of the complex and as a separate entity from the standpoint of potential damage. (Author)
