    the request of' the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) concerning
    SUBJECT. On 20 March the CIA provided ICLP with the three
    following essential elements of information (EEI):
    a. Determine the location of William Buckley.
    b. Determine his physical and mental condition.
    c. Determine the identity of his captors.
    On 10 April a fourth EEI was added: Determine who the CIA should
    contact to arrange for Buckley's release. A ph.otograph of
    Buckley, taken before his apprehension, was used as cuing
    material for the first few remote viewing interviews. Subsequent
    interviews were cued by using Buckley' s name, date and place of
    birth, and by a photograph of Buckley allegedly taken by his
    captors. The photograph was provided ICLP by the CIA.
    2.(S/CL2/NOFORN) Contact  and cooperation between  the CIA and
                                                       

    ICLP is close, constant   and timely. Frequently   information

                                                       by
                                                       

    ICLP has been verified        by other CIA sources.
    later                         Other                
                                                       

    information provided by   CLP will not, be able    be verified
    I                             to

    a. It has been used 'to cue other intelligence collection
  P1 E? a n S .
    b. It has Lieen used to confirm or deny information gathered
  by other collection means.
    c. It has been used by CIA intelligence analysts and
  collection managers to de v e 1 (D pintelligence a n dt ot a i g e t
  conventional resources.
  4. (S/C1_3/N0F0RN) The difficulty inherent in a "search problem'
  such as the Buckley case is in identifying precisely Wlere on
  the earth the object or person i!--, once contact has been made.
  During the course of -the Buckley case ICL.P personnel used
  several new techniques to rC!S01V(~ the "search proble[n". 1hese
  new techniques appear Lo have been successful and will add to
  the state-of-the-art knowledge of the problem. Research IS
  currently ongoing in the R&D Community on the search problem.
  This should offer help ir this area in the future.
  .5. (S/CL3'/NOFORN) No remote viewing interviews have been
  COnCILICted on the Buckley case since 20 April because th.e ICLP
  exhausted all current leads. Additional interviews will be
  conducted when the CIA provides information from other sources
  which needs to be confirmed or when additional EEI is provided.
