CO and 13CO emission from OMC-1 have been mapped with a resolution of 6arcsec×9arcsec. These maps of the hot core and low-velocity flow suggest that essentially all the material near IRc 2 is taking part in a turbulent outflow, the densest clumps of which form the hot core. The high-velocity flow is weakly bipolar and is offset to the north of IRc 2. Analysis of energy sources for the outflow suggests that it must be driven close to the surface of IRc 2, rather than by an orbiting disk.
