Location of an undesirable facility by the maxmin criterion presents the serious problem of the determination of the weights to be associated with the destination points. In this paper the authors explore the structure of the set of optimal solutions to maxmin problems when the weights are allowed to take any positive value, and a geometrical procedure to construct such a set is presented.
