“Replacements”
The 250 unit housing project for
the Naval Station here was de
scribed as necessary to replace sub
standard units at the Station.

clarify a misunderstanding as to
the nature of the proposed project,

housing in Kodiak.
The deputy secretary made it

replacements, and housing re
placed would be disposed of, as re
quired by law.
