Sugar Grove Station Sugar Grove Station is an American government communications site located near Sugar Grove in Pendleton County , West Virginia operated by the National Security Agency ( NSA ) . According to a December 25 , 2005 article in the " New York Times " , the site intercepts all international communications entering the Eastern United States . The activity falls under the Naval Information Operations Command ( NAVIOCOM ) . The site was first developed by the Naval Research Laboratory in the early 1960s as the site of a radio telescope that would gather intelligence on Soviet radar and radio signals reflected from the moon and would gather radioastronomical data on outer space , but the project was halted in 1962 before the telescope construction was completed . The site was then developed as a radio receiving station . The site was activated as " Naval Radio Station Sugar Grove " on May 10 , 1969 , and two Wullenweber Circulary Disposed Antenna Arrays ( CDAAs ) were completed on November 8 , 1969 . Numerous other antennas , dishes , domes , and other facilities were constructed in the following years . Some of the more significant radio telescopes on site are a dish ( oldest telescope on site ) , a dish featuring a special waveguide receiver and a dish ( largest telescope on site ) . Though the CDAAs were decommissioned in the 1990s , the site is still active , and photographs taken between 2000 and 2004 show significant construction on the site . On April 23 , 2013 , the US Navy issued an OPNAV notice that the Naval Command at this location ( NAVIOCOM ) was being disestablished and operations transitioned to the NSA . The site is part of the ECHELON communications network operated by the United States and its allies to intercept and process electronic telecommunications . The network operates many sites around the world including Waihopai Valley in New Zealand , Menwith Hill in the United Kingdom and Yakima , Washington . Sugar Grove is located in an officially designated National Radio Quiet Zone that covers in West Virginia and Virginia . The zone was established by Congress in 1958 to facilitate its mission and that of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory located away at Green Bank in Pocahontas County , West Virginia . The Bowers House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 .

United States Porpoise - class submarine The " Porpoise " class were submarine s built for the United States Navy in the late 1930s , and incorporated a number of modern features that would make them the basis for subsequent " Salmon " , " Sargo " , " Tambor " , " Gato " , " Balao " , and " Tench " classes . Based on the " Cachalot " s , enlarged to incorporate additional main diesels and generators , the Portsmouth boats were all riveted . In general , they were around long and diesel - electric powered . Displacement was 1 , 934 tons submerged for the first four boats , 1 , 998 tons for the later ones . The all - electric drive was troublesome . In this arrangement , the boat ' s four main diesel engines drove only electric generators , which supplied power to electric motors attached to the propeller shafts . The engines themselves were not connected to the propeller shafts . For submerged propulsion , massive storage batteries supplied electricity to the motors . Problems arose with flashover and arcing in the main motors . There was also a loss of in transmission through the electrical system . Their Winton Model 16 - 201A 16 - cylinder diesels also proved problematic , and were eventually replaced with 12 - 278As . The " Porpoise " class consisted of the following subclasses : P - 1 Type P - 3 Type P - 5 Type
