During the month of
December, work had to he interrupted several times for delousing and
disinfestation. Also, starting on 16th December, for security
reasons, there was a special action among all the civilian workers.
Because the camp has been isolated, civilian workers have
not been able to leave the camp for 6 months [incorrect: since
mid-July, i.e 5 months]. A period of leave from 23/12/42 to 4/1/43
is therefore essential.
In view of the circumstances, the
expected completion dates, assuming weather conditions remain
favorable and that personnel remain unchanged, are as
follows |

Krematorium II
31/1/1943
Krematorium III
31/3/1943
Krematorium IV
