j. Determine if functions can be utilized by intelligence
analysts to enhance their grasp, understanding and knowledge of
areas of interest.
2. Milestones
a. Year #1
-- Explore the effects of the known variables on Operational
Remote Viewing (ORV).
?- Complete exploration of training program and develop the
complete training package.
- Initiate work on refining interpretation of data.
- Establish "best use" of ORV, re target type, etc.
I:,. Year #2
Begin to apply ORV technique to real targets.
- Closely interpret the results of the ORV to further
refine the technique.
- Complete work on data interpretation.
- Establish a cadre of f-ul-Ty trai-rred ORVs.
c. Year #3
- Apply all ORV personnel to real intelligence programs
(both known and unknown).
- Develop statistical base to illustrate the effectiveness
of ORV.
- Develop a program that would permit the utilization of
ORV by the DoD.
- Develop a program that would result in the continual refining
and improvement of the ORV technique.

 Approved For Release 2003/09/16 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001700280013-1
- Lstablish training programs for ORV monitors and users
of ORV data.
- Develop selection criterion for acquiring ORV trainees.
3. Experiments (Year #1, 2 and 3)
- All should be relatable to goals of contract and be aimed
at achieving the year's milestones.
Should be established that the experiment will produce the
type of data required.
Experimental designs, ongoing progress and results of
experiments should be cleared by primary Contracting Officer's Technical
Representative (COTR).
