(U)
Discussion
a.
(S/CL-1 /NOFORN)
CENTER LANE
is an
INSCOM Special
Access
Program which utilizes an aspect of parapsychology Known as
Remote Viewing
(RV)
as
the collection method

in-

C!)R
INS COM has reviewed
the project and
reached
the decision
to discontinue
the command's involvement
with psycho energetic
research and
operations... Recognizing
that
INSCOM has ihvested considerable effort over
a long period of
time
to develop the
RV technology and holds a monopoly on this
revolutionary concept
for
intelligence collection, he desires
that we not lose
this knowledge and
experience.
c.
(U)
As
such,
INS COM intends
to do
the following:
(1)
(S/CL-1 /NOFORN)
Cease
CENTER LANE operations on 30
Sep 84,
but allow contracts
and
training
to continue
to
Dec
84.

(S/ CL- 3 /NOFORN)
Transfer project operational aspects
to DIA and
technology extension
to
the

.
In
the event DIA is not
interested
in
the
transfer, NSA will be considered.
