SUBJECT :
Request for CENTER LANE Funding (U)
1.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
On 16 Mar 83 the ASA(RD&A)" was briefed on
CENTER LANE, a US Army Intelligence and Security Command
(INSCOM) Special Access Program which utilizes an aspect of
parapsychology known as Remote Viewing (RV) as the collection
method for obtaining information of intelligence interest.
ASA(RD&A) approved the use of Program 6 funds for CENTER LANE
and specifically approved the five projects listed below:
The.
a.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Coordinate Remote Viewing (CRV) train-
ing; approximate cost $96K.
b. (S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Identification and selection of
personnel; approximate cost $100K.
.
c.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Audio analysis; approximate cost $70K.
d. (S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Initiate work to develop a "search for"
technique; approximate cost $125K.
e.
(S/CL-1/NOFORN)
Biofeedback equipment; approximate cost
$25K.
2. (U) The ASA(RD&A) decided that requests for funds would be
submitted to the DCSRDA.
In keeping with that decision, funds
are requested for the following refined list of projects :
a. (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
CRV training :
three new personnel in
stages 1 through 3 (of 6 stages) - $70K; stages 5 and 6 for one
advanced person
$40K.
(Total $110K.)
b. (S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Develop a testing technique for the
identification and selection of personnel with a higher degree
of talent for RV than the general population - $120K.

c.
(S/CL-2/NOFORN)
Examine correlation between RV per-
formance and ambient Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) fluctuations,
and determine the possibility of RV jamming - $65K. This project
replaces the previously approved audio analysis project. While
audio analysis is an important area for study, preliminary infor-
mation is sufficient to meet immediate needs and ELF study is
of greater potential utility now.
d. (S/CL-2/NOFORN) Develop a "search for" technique
(target upon a person or thing rather than on a geographical
coordinate) - $175K.
e. (S/CL-2/NOFORN) Acquisition of biofeedback equipment
for use in training and pilot testing during RV sessions -
$26.5K (list of equipment is at. Enclosure 1).
3. (C) If Program 6 funds are approved for the above listed
projects, request that DCSRDA action officer disperse the funds
after consultation with CENTER LANE Project Officer to ensure
that contracting and security requirements are met. Further
request that authorization be granted for fund dispersement over .
the next six months, as necessary, so that the contracting pro-
cess does not have to be totally accomplished within FY 83.
4. (U) This submission was held pending Secretary of the Army
approval of CENTER LANE.
Approval was granted 1 September 1983.
