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 Director, GDIP RESOURCE IMPLICATIONS YES NO SG1J A. Personnel B. Space Authorization C.

SECRET Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001500090002-6 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.

(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.

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 responsibility of, DIA. INSCOM will be permitted to retain access to command and control and historical ICLP documents. c. ( S/CL-2/NOFORN) £ Equipment. All ICLD equipment, rental agreements, and on hand supplies will be transferred to DIA. ICLP automatic data processing equipment and automobiles will remain with INSCOM. . d. (S/CL-2/NOFORN) £ 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, Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001500090002-6

(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.

. 1 Approved For Release 2001/03/07/ SECRET. WARDP96-00788R001500090002-6 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. Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001500090002-6 SECRET

Prepare Transfer of CENDdocumentation 6 December 1984 MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD SUBJECT: LANE o DIA Para 6.a .: b. 15 Jupiter 1. (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 CENTER LANE THRBE (3) ... ): MEDiOps INVOLVED : CLASSIFIED BY: CDR, INSCO : HPCLASSIFY ON: 1 2 COPIES Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001500090002-6 SECRET
Approved For Release 2001/03/07 CIA RDP96-00788R001500090002-6 IAGPA - F -SD 6 December 1984 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. a . (U) Civilian salaries: Salaries for one GS-12 and one GS-5 for 2na, 3rd, and 4th qtrs FY 85: $40,000. Approved For Release 2001/03/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001500090002-6 SECRET

(U) Document reproduction machine: Rental agreement on Savin copying machine for 2d, 3rd, 4th qtrs FY 85: $1,500 di. (S/NOFORN) TDY costs: Travel for the remainder of FY 85 in support of the DIA psychoenergetic effort is expected to be minimal. DIA should be expected to absorb this expense. 6. (S/C1-3/NOFORN) 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.
