     There are six of these, each staffed with an Engineering team in cryosleep, and at least one other team (Science, Agriculture, Medical, etc.). The Engineering Teams are named after the Depot (Team Gamma, Team Delta, etc.), and know the locations of several caches and Recon team boltholes in their Zone. Most of these facilities were "sealed up" in 1988.

     They are all built underground; unlike boltholes, they are not meant to be abandoned after the resident team(s) wakes up. They have a fusion reactor and communication system, but are not able to provide much space for operations. The following incomplete information is available to either Recon team R-101 or to Recon team R-54:

• Depot Gamma is in Zone 3 (Idaho, western Montana, western Wyoming). It has a good railway connection, and is widely thought by Project members to have been built as an extension of an existing railway tunnel. Repairing and operating the rail network is this team's focus. A lot of the hi-rail conversion kits for Commando V150 and Commando Scout vehicles are stored here, along with at least 20 Commando Ranger vehicles with the hi-rail kits already installed.
  

• Depot Delta is in Zone 4. No railway connection, but it does have an airstrip available. Besides the Engineering team, this depot contains Omega team O-101:  a number of persons not fit for duty in the Project, due to health or security issues. The depot activated in 2125, and has been entirely cleared out by the Waste Lords.
  

• Depot Epsilon is in Zone 5, and was heavily damaged after the Atomic War. It's currently in the hands of the renegade Morrow teams called the Waste Lords.
  

• Depot Zeta is in Zone 6 (Texas, Oklahoma, eastern New Mexico).
  

• Depot Eta is in Zone 7. Near Lake Superior or Lake Michigan; this depot activated in 2010, and ended up supporting what is now the Arcadian Republic.
  

• Depot Theta is in Zone 9 (the South).
