MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD (Describe briefly the requirement, background and action taken or recommended. Must be sufficiently detailed
to identify the action without resourse te other sources.)
( S/CL-2/NOFORN)
ORIGIN OF ACTION:
CG decision, and subsequent ACSI and
Secretary of the Army approval, to discontinue INSCOM CENTER
LANE
Project ( ICLP) and transfer personnel and equipment to DIA (Blue TAB A).
(ii)
DISCUSSION:
a.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
On 26 September 1984, the CG INSCOM approved an
MOA that would transfer the ICLP to DIA with an effective date of 1
January 1985 ( Blue TAB B) .
The MOA had as its intent a total transfer
of personnel, operations, equipment, and responsibility.
The ACSI
approved the NOA on 4 October 1984, and authorized a detailing action
for a period of one year, if necessary (Blue TAB C).
The MOA was
delivered to DIA for review and coordination on 10 October 1984.
b.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Concurrent
with and subsequent
to
the
preparation of the MOA,
the ICLP Manager met with DIA officials to
discuss the transfer.
On 19 November 1984, the ICLP Manager learned
that due to intricacies in funding, DIA could not support
a total
transfer action at this time and therefore could not agree to the terms
of the MOA.
DIA resource managers stated that they would request a
detailing of ICLP resources and that either

Staff, or LTG Williams, Director, DIA, would contact MG Soyster "in the
near future" to discuss the concept of temporary detailing vice the
total transfer of ICLP at this time. The ICLP Manager informed these
DIA personnel, who supported a detailing position, of MG Soyster's
strong desire to effect a total transfer. The ICLP Manager briefed COL
Kirk and MG Soyster on these developments on 20 and 21 November 1984,
respectively.
c.
( S/CL-2/NOFORN)
As of 6 December 1984, DIA still intended to
request a detailing action. The memorandum at Blue TAB D explains the
basis for the DIA decision, provides rationale for a detailing action,
and addresses the
impact a detailing action will have on
INSCOM
resources .
d.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Recommend that
CG
INSCOM approve
the DIA
request
to
detail
INSCOM personnel
to
perform
psychoenergetic
intelligence collection and counterintelligence activities.
The impact
on INSCOM resources will be the loss of two TDA spaces for the period of
the detail and administrative costs (civilian salaries, word processing
equipment maintenance, and equipment rental) that are estimated to be
$60,000 for the remainder of FY 85.
(U)
WHAT THIS ACTION WILL ACCOMPLISH:
a.
( S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Transfer
the responsibility
for
all
DoD
psychoenergetic activity to DIA.
b.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Satisfy the requirement to cancel
INSCOM's
involvement in psychoenergetics IAW the directive of CG INSCOM.
c.
( S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Permit the Intelligence Community to continue
to
use
a
proven team of highly qualified professionals
in the
application of psychoenergetics
as an
intelligence collection and
counterintelligence tool.

FOR SECRETARY OF THE ARMY
SUBJECT :
CENTER LANE (U) -- ACTION MEMORANDUM
8/23/84
1. (S/ CL-1/NOFORN) Purpose: To obtain your approval for the
discontinuation of Intelligence and Security Command ( INS COM)
involvement with psychoenergetic research and operations.
2. (U) Discussion :
a.
(S/ CL-1/NOFORN)
CENTER LANE is an INSCOM Special Access
Program which utilizes an aspect of parapsychology known as
Remote Viewing (RV) as the collection method for obtaining in-
formation of intelligence interest. Your approval for the Army
to engage in CENTER LANE activities was most recently obtained on
1 Sep 83.
b. (S/CL-1/NOFORN) CDR INSCOM has reviewed the project and
reached the decision to discontinue the command's involvement
with psychoenergetic research and operations. Recognizing that
INSCOM has invested considerable effort over a long period of
time to develop the RV technology and holds a monopoly on this
revolutionary concept for intelligence collection, he desires
that we not lose this knowledge and experience.
c.
(U)
As such, INSCOM intends to do the following :
(1) (S/CL-1/NOFORN) Cease CENTER LANE operations on 30
Sep 84, but allow contracts and training to continue to 31 Dec
84.
(2) (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Transfer project operational aspects
to DIA and technology extension to the US Army Medical Research
and Development Command.
In the event DIA is not interested in
the transfer, NSA will be considered.

BACKGROUND.
USAINSCOM has invested
considerable effort
since
1977
in developing psychoenergetic
operational methods.
Intelligence consumers in the US Army, US Air
Force, DIA, NSA, CIA, and NSC have all tasked this methodology to
augment other intelligence systems. These agencies have recognized
the value and potential of the intelligence application of
psychoenergetics; it is likely they will continue to task the
system.
The transfer of ICLP capability to DIA must be done in such
a way as to maintain continuity and momentum of effort, as well as
the state-of-the-art expertise exclusive to this time-proven, highly
respected activity.
4.
(S/CL -2/NOFORN)
SCOPE.
£
The effective transfer of ICLP to DIA
requires the cooperation of INSCOM, DA (ACSI), and DIA.
5. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) ) AGREEMENTS, SUPPORT, AND RESOURCES
REQUIREMENTS.
The "package deal" concept has been agreed to in
principle by all parties involved, This concept has as its intent
the transfer of all personnel, documents, equipment, and office
space from INSCOM to DIA. The transfer of ICLP personnel to DIA
will not involve the transfer of any INSCOM spaces.
ICLP has been
an active intelligence collection unit since 1978.
It is intended
that the unit will remain an operational element under the direct
OPCON of the Assistant Vice Director for Scientific and Technical
Intelligence (DT), DIA.
a.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Personnel. All personnel assigned to
INSCOM and working on ICLP will be encouraged to PCS to DIA for
assignment to the DIA element that will perform the psychoenergetic
training and collection mission.
( Operational participation with
CENTER LANE is strictly voluntary and falls under the guidelines of
DoD directive 5240.1-R, AR 381 -10, and Code of Federal Regulation,
Title 45, part 46. )
b.
( S/CL-2/NOFORA)
Documents.
£
All documents maintained by
ICLP will be transferred to, and become the property and

£
Office Space. The affected agencies have
agreed that the best course of action would be to continue to use
the ICLP facilities at Ft. Meade, MD, which consists of two
buildings, T-2560 and T-2561.
Use of the Ft. Meade facility will
provide the least amount of turmoil for the personnel involved,

MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD (Doseribe briofly the requirement, background and cetion taken ar recommended. Must be sufficiently detailed
to identify the action without rasourss to other sources.)
(S/CL-2/NOFORN) .ORIGIN OF ACTION:
CG, INSCOM decision and subsequent ACSI and
Secretary of the Army approval, to discontinue INSCOM CENTER LANE Project (ICLP) and
transfer appropriate operational and R&D efforts to the appropriate organizations
(Blue TAB A).
(U) DISCUSSION:
a. (S/CL-2/NOFORN) The ICLP manager has held discussions with DIA
officials and
the CG, US Army Medical Research and Development Command (USAMROC)
since the
announcement of the decision to cancel the ICLP and transfer its functions to permit
the continuance of the intelligence psychoenergetic effort within DoD. These
discussions resulted in a concept that will permit the continuation of | intelligence
collection through psychoenergetics within DoD in a program that will be managed by
DIA. The program will be a coordinated effort throughout the Intelligence Community
to include DIA, NSA, CIA, and the US Army (USAMRDC) .
D.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN) During a 1 August 1984 meeting between MG Rapmund and LTC
BuzDy, MG Rapmund outlined his concept for USAMRDC participation in psychoenergetics
and stated that he neither needed nor wanted the transfer of ICLP resources to
USAMRDC to support his R&D efforts; therefore, this action will not address eitner
the transfer of any INSCOM resources to USAMRDC or discuss proposed utilization of
operational personnel in support of USAMRDC R&D.

c.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN) DIA and USAMRDC signed an MOA on 17 August 1984 that serves
as a concept paper and gives USAMRDC a charter to perform R&D to validate the
psychoenergetic phenomena. The concept provides for the use of operational personnel
to support the R&D effort; however, there are no USAMRDC requirements for full time
assignment of military intelligence personnel to USAMRDC to support the R&D effort.
d.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Discussions to date with DIA indicated that the new DoD
psychoenergetic effort will operate under strict security. It is anticipated that.
after approval of an MOA, DIA will request OPSEC and cover support from INSCOM.
Such
support is already provided to ICLP by the Security Support Detachment, 902d MI Group
and Administrative Survey Detachment, and these organizations could feasibly provide
similar support to the prospective DIA effort.
e. (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
In preparation for the ICLP transfer to DIA, the ICLP
manager directed the preparation of a staff study to provide the rationale behind the
preparation of the MOA. A copy of the staff study is attached at Blue TAS B.
f. (U)
The proposed MOA will: (Blue TAB C)
(1)
(S/CL .- 2/NOFORN)
Transfer all personnel currently assigned to ICLP to
DIA.
It will involve the transfer of "faces but not spaces."
(2)
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Transfer all ICLP documents to DIA.
(3) (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Transfer all equipment, maintenance contracts, rental
agreements and on hand supplies to DIA.
(4) (S/CL-2/NOFORN) Permit the transfer of the two office buildings
currently occupied by ICLP to DIA.
This will be accomplished by an ISSA between DIA
and Fort Meade after the effective date of the MOA.
g. (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
It is recognized and accepted that the deactivation of ICLP
and its subsequent transfer to DIA will be a major task. With a positive approach
and complete cooperation from the INSCOM staff, however, the transfer can be
accomplished with INSCOM's best interests in mind and minimum disruption to ICLP
operations.
h.
(U)
Recommend that after review and approval by CG, INSCOM, the MOA be
forwarded unsigned to OACSI, DA as a concept paper for their coordination and
approval (a suggested cover letter has been drafted, and is attached at Blue TAB D).
CG, INSCOM could then sign the MOA when it is returned upon completion of the OACSI
action.
(U)
WHAT THIS ACTION WILL ACCOMPLISH:
a.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Satisfy requirement to cancel INSCOM's involvement in
psychoenergetics.
b.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Permit the Intelligence Community to continue ' to use
psychoenergetics as an intelligence collection tool.

( S/CL-2/NOFORN)
I concur with the concept of transferring ICLP
to DIA, but do not concur
that
the WANG word processing
equipment should be included
in the transfer. There is a
critical need for automation
in USAINSCOM HUMINT collection
activities, and I believe we
should reallocate existing word
processing equipment within INSCOM before we offer it to another
organization.

detail on the procedure to be followed in transferring personnel
to DIA.
INS COM may detail the individuals involved for up to one
year to allow time for DIA to identify spaces. Once such spaces
are available, the detailed personnel may be given a Permanent
Change of Station.
If DIA desires a change in authorized
strength to allow for immediate PCS reassignment, they may apply
for it through JCS. OACSI, DA will support such a change in
status if the subject becomes an issue.

(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
Continual
discussions with DIA management
now indicate that the transfer of ICLP activities to DIA is not
likely to take place by 31 December 1984.
DIA has agreed to
accept total responsibility for the psychoenergetic applications
and research program.
However, current Congressional
prohibitions against the use of NFIP resources in such a program
and the critical absence of non-NFIP resources at DIA have not
aflowed DIA resource managers to identify personnel spaces in
which to transfer the nine personnel currently assigned to
ICLP.
These managers, therefore, have taken the position that a
detailing action is necessary if the transfer of ICLP functions
is to take place. A detailing action would permit DIA to manage
and operate the program without using NFIP resources since ICLP
personnel are in non-NFIP spaces. Use of non-NFIP resources is
an interim measure that will be resolved when Congress approves
the DIA FY 86-90 GDIP initiative for a CENTER LANE follow-on.
DIA has already submitted the initiative, but Congress will not
review and rule on it until at least summer 1985. When Congress
approves the initiative, the GDIP supported psychoenergetic
program can be implemented during the first quarter FY 86.
2.
(S/CL -3/NOFORN)
For the above reasons on 3 December 1984,
Dr. Jack Vorona, Assistant Deputy Director for Scientific and
Technical Intelligence, DIA, directed the preparation of
a
decision paper for the Director, DIA that would support a DIA
position to recommend detailing of ICLP personnel rather than a

SUBJECT:
Transfer of CENTER LANE to DIA (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
PCS transfer. The paper would also suggest that LTG Williams
contact MG Soyster to discuss the issue. The decision paper is
scheduled to be submitted to LTG williams on 7 December 1984.
3. (S/CL-3/NOFORN)
My assessment of the situation concludes
that a detailing action is in the best interests of the program,
INSCOM, and personnel currently assigned to ICLP.
Detailing
would permit an early resumption of collection activities, the
continuation of training, and the assumption of responsibility
bv DIA for management of the DoD psychoenergetic program.
Should Congress react negatively to the GDIP initiative, the
personnel involved in the detailing process, together with their
varied skills and considerable experience, would not be lost to
INSCOM and could be reassigned to contribute positively in other
areas of the command.
4.
( S/CL -3/NOFORN)
The one drawback for INSCOM is the problem
of "tying up" spaces occupied by the nine personnel currently
assigned to ICLP.
Recent actions, however, may ameliorate this
situation.
First of these is the scheduled 1 January 1985
authorization
of
three personnel on
the Security Systems
Planning Division (SSPD), MI Battalion (Security), 902d MI Group
( the CENTER
LANE cover
organization)
nine person
TDA
allow
three of
the
organization.
This
will
current
"out-of-hide" personnel to be slotted against valid positions.
Second, one of the individuals involved is scheduled to PCS in
July 1985, after completion of a four year tour with CENTER
LANE.
The personnel management system allows requisitioning and
manning against the position he now occupies as much as six
months in advance, that is in January 1985. Third, one of the
enlisted personnel currently assigned is due to, and probably
will, ETS in July 1985.
While these personnel will eventually
be replaced, once the activity is transferred to DIA, no
replacements for these two individuals have been identified and
there are no plans to fill these projected vacancies with INSCOM
assets. Fourth, one individual assigned to SSPD falls under the
auspices of the GREAT SKILLS program.
He will be maintained on
ASD's roster, and therefore always be an INSCOM asset. Finally,
the two civilian employees are "permanent overhire, " and present
no net loss to INSCOM mann
ing strength.
Of the nine personnel
assigned, therefore, eight may be "provided for," leaving only
one position that would have to be "gapped" and one ASD space.
5.
(S/CL-3/NOFORN)
A decision to detail INSCOM personnel
to
DIA
will have a
funding impact.
The
following funding
. requirements must be provided for in a detailing situation.

Recommend that CG INSCOM approve the DIA
request to detail INSCOM assets to DIA to participate in the new
DoD psychoenergetic program.
Upon
approval
the following
actions will be taken by the ICLP Manager:
a.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN) Preparation of a letter to the ACSI, DA
that notifies him of the CG, INSCOM's intentions to detail, and
the disestablishment of the CENTER LANE Special Access Program.
b.
( S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Preparation of
new MOA that will
place ICLP personnel under the operational control of DIA.
The
MOA will
include specific wording
that
places entire
responsibility for the program with DIA, to include "human use"
approval, and delineate support responsibilities.
