UNMOVIC IAEA Press Statement on Inspection Activities in Iraq

17 January

An UNMOVIC biological team inspected a farm and visited an ice-making factory near As Suwayrah, approximately 50 km southeast of Baghdad. Multi-frequency electromagnetic detectors were used to survey several areas of the farm.

An UNMOVIC chemical team inspected Falluja I and II, roughly 80 km and 100 km respectively northwest of Baghdad. Falluja I is storage of farm products and largely deserted. Falluja II is a site that comprises the headquarters of the Al-Tariq Company and a factory area, and their major activity is the production of phenol and chlorine. The chlorine plant is currently inoperative.
