General The objective of this effort is to investigate in detail certain psychoenergetic phenomena that have potential military applications. Emphasis will be on evaluating application potential and limitations of such phenomena, and to provide such knowledge as gained under this contract to appropriate DoD agencies who will evaluate the signifiance of foreign work, particularly as it may pose a threat to the US Major emphasis will be on evaluating remote viewing phenomena and in particular, targeting aspects, via coordinate or other methods. Related to this are training methods, methods of enhancing reliability and repeatability of the phenomena. 2.0 Specific Tasks (FY 81) 2.1 Develop audio/semantic analysis techniques to separate correct from incorrect data available from taped viewer descriptions of remote viewing sites and to provide selective editing under operational conditions. 2.2 Determine what is required for target acquistion (names, maps, coordinates, pictures, arbitrary labelings, simply the word "target". etc.) 2.3 Evaluate threat potential of foreign remote viewing - type investigations: 2.3.1 Simulate experimental results for which there is data to assess validity of the foreign research. 2,3.2 Assess military applications potential of the foreign research (or claims) particularly where a threat to US security is possible. 2.3.3 Assess feasibility of the most significant applications and evaluate limitations. 6LULI Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1200020010-7 Approved For Release 2000/08/07 1~196-00788ROO`l 200020010-7 2.4 The following task will be undertaken to explore the applications potential of remote viewing. It will specifically undertake the task of developing and evaluating a training program designed to increase the reliability of remote viewing and seek to gain better data on operational targets. 2.4.1 Evaluate the use of remote viewing to locate target objects or people. 2.4.2 Evaluate the use of remote viewing for event detection and to locate events. 2.4.3 Evaluate the use of remote viewing to detect the presence or absence of targets. 2.4.4 Evaluate the potential of various camouflage, concealment and deception as countermeasures to remote viewing. . 2.4.5 Investigate the effects of the following variables on the remote viewing phenomena. (a) accuracy. (b) degree of resolution, (c) affect the sensory inputs (feel, smell, touch, etc). 2.4.6 Determine potential of remote viewing to assess other types of information, such as specific S&T data, or function/purpose of facilities or activities. 2.5 It is anticipated that during the contract period there will be quick reaction tasks approved by the Grill Flame committee, passed through the COTR and levied on the contractor. These will be of high priority and will require prompt attention, 2 Approved For Release 2000/08/07 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1200020010-7 Approved For Release 2000/08/07-~":t46,,,I"A-"R'DP96-00788 ROO 1200020010-7 3.

This summary. prominently identified, should normally not exceed a few pages. The purpose of the projects must be specified, together with a description of important equipment purchased or developed, if any, and the conclusions reached by the contractor. The most important single feature of this summary is that it must be meaningful to readers who are not specialists in the subject matter of the contract. The requirement for careful preparation cannot be overemphasized as this.summary will often provide the basis for decision on the continuity of the project. The contractor must recognize that his achievements are quite often surveyed by Department of Defense staff who function at a level that precludes a thorough review of detailed reports. When appropriate, references should be made to more detailed sections of the report in order to guide those who may be prepared to spend the additional time required to develop a more complete and professional understanding of the accomplishments. The report summary should include the following information for each major portion of the work. 1. Problems. 2. General methodology (e.g., literature view, laboratory experiment, survey, field study, etc.). 3. Results 4. Implications for further research (if any). 5. Special comments (if any). ft IU F~ 'S E Approved For Release 2000/08/07: CIA-RDP96-00788 ROO 1200020010-7 00/08J.'~ P96-00788ROO1200020010-7 Approved For Release 20 MIPR CONTROL PROVISIONS AND GUIDANCE 1.
