(S/CL-2/NOFORN) BACKGROUND. Since the beginning of USAINSCOM's exploitation of psychoenergetics (PE) technology with Project GRILL FLAME in 1977 through the present effort under CENTER LANE, the project has been conducted on an ad hoc basis, using resources taken "out of hide." Despite the provisional approach, project results have been very impressive. State-of-the-art in psychoenergetics has advanced so far, however, that the current organizational approach is no longer adequate to derive the maximum benefit and intelligence potential from available technology. In recognition of this, directives received in the General Defense Intelligence Program (GDIP) Program Manager's Guidance Memorandum, Fiscal Years 1986-1990, Substantive Guidance document require the provision of "unranked packages to fund the operational use of CENTER LANE capabilities" (para 5i, TAB A).

(S/CL-2/NOFORN) DISCUSSION. Attached at TAB B is a revised, proposed CENTER LANE organization that has an end-of-cycle personnel strength of 20. The organization is designed to continue current PE training, development, and collection efforts, and establish a base for INSCOM PE activities beyond FY 90. 3. (U) RECOMMENDATION. a. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Recommend that CG, USAINSCOM approve the proposed CENTER LANE organization and GDIP New Initiative at TAB C. b. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) The compartmented nature of the information included in the justification document requires the initiative to be submitted separately from INSCOM's standard GDIP submission. Upon approval of the concept, the proposed CENTER LANE GDIP packet will be transmitted directly to DAMI-ISH, ACSI DA for action. C. (S/CL-3/NOFORN) Submission of the CENTER LANE initiative by HQ, USAINSCOM in the Planning, Programming, and Budget process implies an agreement by the command that if the initiative is approved at the DA and DoD level, USAINSCOM is prepared to implement the program at the beginning of FY 86. This means that there will be a requirement to implement a CENTER LANE organization with 12 persons on 1 October 1985. Analysis of current and projected CENTER LANE resources through FY 85 indicates that the project will have a minimum of 10 personnel assigned by the end of FY 85; therefore, the activation of an INSCOM PE activity at the beginning of FY 86 should not create an unmanageable manpower requirement for INSCOM. 0/4~ 3 Incl BRIAN BUZBY as LTC) MI CENTER LANE Project Manager SECRt I NOT RE LFASABLE TO FOREIGN NAT I ONALS 2 Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1600450002-5 SG1A Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1600450002-5 Next 5 Page(s) In Document Exempt Approved For Release 2000/08/08 : CIA-RDP96-00788ROO1600450002-5
