PROJECT CENTER LANE
NARRATIVE EXPLANATION/JUSTIFICATION:
刀
DESCRIPTION:
(S/CL-3) Establish a new intelligence program utilizing psychoenergetics (parapsychology) to enhance
Misting intelligence collection and OPSEC programs, and an organizational infrastructure to manage administrative,
taining and operational functions for the program. Through a thoroughly proven aspect of psychoenergetics known as remote
wiewing, the proposed program will collect and report information of intelligence value without regard to time, target
Scation, or any efforts to deny the information to the collector, with no known risk of detection.
Plans are. be@g
f@rmulated for intelligence exploitation of other psychoenergetic technologies, such as psychokinetics, rem@e
Ommunications, etc., as the state-of-the-art in each progresses sufficiently. Money budgeted for this program will
e
used for the extensive training involved, required facilities, and systems for obtaining, recording, processing
@sseminating valuable information obtained.

STIFICATION: (S/CL-3) INSCOM's efforts in the intelligence application of psychoenergetics have been on an ad hoc basis
Since 1977. During that six year period, CENTER LANE, and its predecessor program GRILL FLAME, established the feasibility
d soundness of psychoenergetics, primarily through the use of the remote viewing phenomenon as an intelligence toel.
gom 1978 through 1983 intelligence collection projects using remote viewing completed for the U.S. Army and such agencies
DIA, JCS, CIA, NSA, FBI, and the Secret Service, produced significant results. At least two intelligence community
firsts" have resulted from project operations. During this same time, outside research has refined the methodology even
arther, promising greater accuracy and control than ever before. Administrative and personnel turmoil, sporadic
Sailability of resources, and lack of a formal TOE/TDA organization have all kept the project from realizing its time
Otential. Full utilization of this unique and cost-effective collection capability can be made not only by establishgg
bis program officially, but expanding its resources and organizational base.
EINEFITS:
(S/CL-3)
Intelligence application of psychoenergetics will not only facilitate cuing of conventional
telligence systems, but will also allow penetration of otherwise inaccessible targets to collect intelligence.
tential targets are:
Tactical and strategic, conventional and nuclear weapons systems within their secure locations.
Technical developments concerning armor, anti-armor, and chemical and biological research within their secure locations.

NFIP CPBS DESCRIPTION, DECISION PACKAGE, Project CENTER LANE (Cont.)
Foreign SIGINT and HUMINT collection directed against U.S. targets.
Wh
approved, this initiative will provide necessary personnel and organizational stability, ameliorating past problems of
magor fluctuations in resources and personnel availability which has thus far hindered full production of this type of
intelligence information.
SHORTFALLS: (S/CL-3) Several problems will be encountered should this initiative not be approved. Primary in importance
will be an inability to meet all the needs of the various agencies the project currently supports. More requests for
support are already received than can be addressed. Because of resource and personnel limitations, project managers muss
exercise extremely strict criteria in determining what taskings may be accepted. User agencies state that they have many
more taskings they would like to address to CENTER LANE than can be supported by the current provisional structure. CENTER
LAI@ currently is alone at the forefront in the operational use of this technology, and in fact, INSCOM drives the U.S
st
be of the art. If proper resource allocation is not approved, this crucial momentum would be lost, and the nationas
in
elligence community would lose a valuable, unique, and cost-effective collection capability which now allows penetration
of
targets inaccessible to any conventional system. The long training lead-time required to develop source personnel would
later resumption of a viable program extremely difficult and time consuming.
