SUBJECT :
Information for ACSI-INSCOM Meeting (28Feb 83) (U)
ISSUE :
(U) Project CENTER LANE (U)
1.
(U)
The initial meeting was to take place on 11 Feb 83, but
was canceled due to the weather.
The second meeting scheduled
for 14 Feb 83, was also postponed due to weather.
2.
(U)
The ACSI attendees will be BG Strom and Maj (P) Fox.
3.
(U)
The purpose of the meeting which was requested by BG
Strom is:
a.
An opportunity for INSCOM to update ACSI on the status
of Project CENTER LANE.
b. Discuss current actions concerning the DOD Project that
ACSI has been involved in or actions that they are aware of,
specifically the use of P6 funds authorized by the Under
Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering) .
C.
Work out a joint position for the future.
4.
( S/NOFORN)
Probable items that ACSI will bring up:
a.
A need to know which projects or equipment INSCOM wishes
to be funded with P6 funds and the priority for each item. -
Initial recommendations by LTC Hartzell and I are attached ( Incl
1).
b.
Compliance with intent of FY83 Congressional
Intelligence Committees - LOI to place Project CENTER LANE in a
non-NFIP funded program has been completed.
LOI is at the
INSCOM Chief of Staff for signature ( Incl 2) .
C.
INSCOM support to DIA on the report required by the
House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence - DIA has not
requested any support or assistance to date. If requested we
will support. I anticipate that the ACSI will be the interface
with DIA and any request will give us enough time to prepare a
professional product ( Incl 3) .

Background Information ACSI-INSCOM Meeting 28 Feb 83
d.
Outstanding evaluations from pre-CENTER LANE projects -
Evaluations for 1 project completed in May 1981 and guidance on
3 active projects currently on hold (last sessions conducted
Jun-Jul 82) are due from the CIA. At the last meeting with my
CIA contact he reiterated that due to limited or in some cases a
lack of access to the targets, the project information would be
fragmentary and may be difficult to obtain. I plan to meet with
my point-of-contact in the next two weeks and will find out the
current status of these projects.
( My policy is that if there
is no activity on a project for 6 month it is transferred to an
ACTIVE-ON HOLD status.
If there is no activity for an
additional 6 months it is then either CANCELLED or listed as
COMPLETED-WITHOUT EVALUATION. )
e.
Formalize approval of project tasking - I do not believe
that BG Strom feels that it is appropriate for the Project
Manager to be the approval authority. BG Strom believes that
formal approval for each project should be obtained within the
INSCOM operational chain of command. He has suggested that a
request in a format similar to an OVOP be prepared for approval
of each project. I can prepare the formal proposal and then
submit it to the designated INSCOM approving authority. However
I am concerned that administrative actions do not eventually
overwhelm operations (Incl 4).
f.
Information concerning CENTER LANE Projects - In the
past DIA has expressed a concern that while they were the boD
Program Manager they were not aware of the specifics of INSCOM
activities.
During the FY83 Congressional budget process
orchestrated by DIA and ACSI we provided a complete briefing on
INSCOM's involvement in the DOD Program.
Since that time I have
had no direct contact with DIA.
I am not opposed to providing
information concerning CENTER LANE Projects providing the
customer agrees to the scope of information disclosed. All
activities who task us agree to being identified.
However we
have always gained their concurrence prior to the release of
specific details concerning their projects.
5.
(S/NOFORN )
Information for ACSI:
a.
Training - A contract for continuation of training has
been completed.
Training should resume in March.

Background Information ACSI-INSCOM Meeting 28 Feb 83
b.
Security - INSCOM is preparing a request that ACSI
establish Project CENTER LANE as a formal Special Access Program
(SAP). The Security Support Detachment (SSD), 902d MI Group is
forwarding to the CG a recommendation to SAP the Project. SSD
in conjunction with Project personnel have developed the first
classification guide and security procedures manual in the
history of this program ( Incl 5)
6.
( S/NOFORN )
Information requested from ACSI:
a .
Clarification of wording in Dr DeLauer Memo - The memo
states " ...
Program 6 resources may be used to maintain the
current Army INSCOM capability ... " (underscoring added). Does
this restrict INSCOM to the 5 people authorized by Congress in
FY82 ?
Does it preclude INSCOM from moving into areas which
were not in existence in FY82?
b.
INSCOM priority at SRI - DIA has either obtained or
received commitment for $200K from DARPA. This is the amount of
money that DIA had determined was needed to keep DIA intact for
FY83. Since SRI no longer needs our funds will we get the same
priority and professional service for our projects or will SRI
be fully committed to DIA? Can ACSI determine the projects
funded for FY83 with GDIP funds and those proposed to be funded
with P6 money. It would be. ACSI/INSCOM interest to have our
projects formally list at or near the top of the overall DIA
priority list.
c.
SRI
ability to perform - Does SRI have sufficient
personnel with the required expertise to complete all the
projects committed to them for FY83? DIA should be prepared to
answer this question.
-
d.
Feedback on the ACSI-Secretary of the Army meeting - A
meeting between the ACSI and Secretary of the Army concerning
the DoD Project GRILL FLAME took place on or about 11 Feb 82.
What was the reaction of Secretary?

(U) Depending upon availability of funding locate appropriate scientists
to work on the following:
2.
(5-CL/NOFORN) Ability to determine on a real time basis the
validity of a remote viewer's statements by use of biological -monitoring.
Approximante cost to be determined. Possible source Medical R&D Command.
b. (S-CL/NOFORN) Develop a "search for" remote viewing technique.
Currently a remote
viever is targeted against a person, object or event at
a known location. What is needed is a method to work against at an unknown
location with the remote viewer providing a description which enables
intelligence analysts to identify the unknown location. Approximate costs
to be determined.

2. (s/noforn) .
Biofeedback (self-regulation) has and is being
successfully used in a variety of ways which may be applicable
to the training and functioning of individuals who are involved
in remote-viewing. Learning voluntary control of involuntary
and unconscious bodily processes ( cardiovascular functions,
autonomic nervous system, central nervous system) through im-
mediate feedback devices (digital thermometers, EMG, EEG, deep
breathing and relaxation) is what is known as biofeedback. The
development of extraordinary skills - time distortion, pain con-
trol, bleeding control, conscious control of the unconscious,
eliminating effects of jet lag are reported in the psychological
literature. It is also possible to achieve certain altered states
of consciousness using biofeedback.
To test the question - does training in biofeedback enhance' RV
ability? the following equipment is needed: digital thermometers,
EMGs, EEGs, rings, reclining chairs, and a sensory deprivation
tank. The total cost will be approximately $30,000.00.

Request for Special Access Program (SAP) Establishment (U)
Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Intelligence
The Pentagon
Washington, D.C. 20310
1. (U) IAW provisions of para 12-101g, AR 380-5, request that a Special Access
Program under ACSI sponsorship be established for the below listed USAINSCOM
project :
a. (U)
Responsible agency: HQ USAINSCOM.
b. (U) Unclassified nickname: CENTER LANE.
2. (S/CL-1/NOFORN) CENTER LANE is the USAINSCOM application of methodology
currently in development in the Defense Intelligence Agency GRILL FLAME Project.
Unlike GRILL FLAME, however, which is limited to research and development of a
new technology, CENTER LANE utilizes that same technology in an operational
intelligence collection mode.
3. (U) Due to this project's sensitivity, based on its unique technology and
sources involved, I believe that normal security management and safeguarding
are insufficient to protect project data and personnel. I recommend, therefore,
that the protective sanctions afforded by SAP establishment be applied.
4. (U) OPSEC analysts of the OPSEC Support Division, 902d MI Group, have
previously been assigned and are currently providing OPSEC assistance to the
CENTER LANE Program Manager.
5. (U). The Program Manager and POC for this project is: LTC Jachim, Autovon
923-7829/2656.
6. (U) A copy of the CENTER LANE security instruction and classification guides
are attached as an inclosure to this letter.
