Joint three year GRILL FLAME effort is intended to implement a comprehensive effort designated from the outset to determine the opera ional parameters and usefulness of certain elements of psychoenergetics and assess the threat these phenomena pose to the National security. The DoD GRILL FLAME effort will include, but not be limited to, external assistance contracts. It is recognized that each participant reserves the right to discontinue participation in this program at the end of each fiscal year. Each participant reserves the right to enter into GRILL FLAME contracts with parties independent of the terms for the approval of joint contracts by the GRILL FLAME Committee. The GRILL FLAME Committee will seek throughout the first year, and continual- ly during follow on years, to examine capabilities in remote viewing (RV) and psychokinetics (PK) developed by potential contractors and unanimously agree to contract with the contractors who can best meet the requirements of the DoD at the least possible cost. a. The DIA wills :-. | (1) Issue joint contracts to accomplish the required external support.

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 significance 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 undef 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.

Evaluate the potential of various camouflage, conceal- ment and deception as countermeasures to remote viewing. 2.3.8 Investigate the effects of the following variables on the remote viewing phenomena. (a) accuracy. (b) degree of resolution. (c) affect on the sensory inputs (feel, smell, touch, etc.). 2.3.9 Determine potential of remote viewing to assess other types of information, such as specific S&T data, or function/purpose of facilities or activities. * Ee 2.4; 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. Sanitized Copy Approved for Release 2011/07/07 : CIA-RDP96-00792R000100140055-2
