a) The subcontractor's approach to improving the
reliability of remote viewing was to focus on the control of
those factors that in his view tend to introduce "noise" into the
remote viewing product.
b) The basic components of CRV consist of:
1) Repeated site-address (coordinate)
presentation, with quick-reaction
response by the remote viewer; coupled
with a restrictive format for
reporting perceived information which
minimizes imaginative overlays.
2) The use of a specially-designed, acoustic-
tiled relatively featureless homogeneously—
colored, "viewing chamber" which minimizes
environmental overlays.
3). The adoption of a strictly-prescribed,
limited monitor patter which minimizes
monitor overlays.
c) CRV subdivides the detection and decoding of
psychic impressions into discrete achievable skills known as
stages 1 to 6. The process usually begins by presenting the
remote viewer with encrypted geographical coordinates, hence the
name CRV.
a) Encrypted geographical coordinates are a series
of twelve numbers or less selected from a random program
generator and used to disguise a set of geographical coordinates
representing a specific point on earth.
e) The CRV stages are identified below:
1) Stage One: Islands, mountains, deserts,
oceans.

2) Stage Two: Sites of quality sensory
value; sites which are uniquely describable
through taste, sound, color or odor.
3) Stage Three: Sites possessing significant
dimensional characteristics.
4) Stage Four: Sites requiring qualitative
mental perceptions.
5) Stage Five: Sites requiring the
interrogation of qualitative mental
perceptions to produce refined information.
6) Stage Six: Sites requiring direct, three-
dimensional assessment of site elements to
one another.
f) As stage six is engaged, an assessment of
relative and temporal and spatial dimensional elements along with
further qualitative elements evolve into the consciousness of the
remote viewer.
3. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Written Remote Viewing (WRV) is
the ability to receive direct, detailed information. WRV is
phonetically and verbally oriented and can be used in both the
predictive and search modes. The WRV process consists of
utilizing a pen or pencil and writing on paper information
received. The writing is a rapid and flowing movement initiated
by impulses to the autonomic nervous system.
4. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Other methodologies include:
a) Dowsing is the search for underground supplies
of water, metal, etc. by the use of a forked stick known as a
divining rod.
b) Psychometry is the faculty of receiving
information concerning an object or person associated with it, by
contact with or proximity to the object. Psychometry is also
known as Object Remote Viewing.
III. (U) TARGET SELECTION:
(S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) There are generally three areas of target
selection that are utilized for Proficiency Enhancement and they
are as follows:

A. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Geographic or fixed sites can be
anywhere and can be of anything. However, the selected site
should be relatively unique and have clear distinct features or
aspects to minimize ambiguity. The target site can emphasize
natural or man-made features, or contain a mix of these aspects.
B. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Personalities involve the remote
viewer's ability to describe characteristics or other aspects
such as state-of-the-health of an individual. When selecting a
personality target, the individual should be one of prominence,
can be male or female, and of any race or age.
Cc. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Search is one of the most difficult
remote viewing projects. It! involves the remote viewer locating
missing equipment or people. Search is the actual finding of
designated individuals, hidden equipment or other material such
as a lost aircraft or vessel.

Iv. (U) PROFICIENCY ENHANCEMENT PROTOCOLS:
A. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Project Officers for Proficiency
Enhancement Projects will be experienced remote viewers because
they have the knowledge to identify and select appropriate
targets. These targets will have aspects or features conducive
to remote viewing and be as close to operational pursuits as
possible.
B. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The Project Officer is responsible for
selecting a target to include obtaining and securing the needed
materials in a sealed envelope. He or she then assigns the
target a number which is known as the project number and tasks
the individual remote viewers via a tasking sheet.

1. The tasking sheet, which is essentially a request
for information, will consist of the project number, viewer
identification number and the date of the actual tasking. The
tasking sheet can also include encrypted geographical coordinates
for those viewers who choose the CRV methodology. This
information is filled out by the Project Officer and then given
to the remote viewers prior to their sessions.
2. The tasking sheet will also consist of an evaluation
and the date the project is completed. This information will be
filled out by the Project Officer following the remote viewing
sessions. (A copy of the tasking sheet is at Appendix A).
3. The actual tasking itself, should be minimal without
elaborating on information that could lead the viewer. For
example, the tasking sheet should only state "Describe site and
activity" for a geographic or fixed target. The tasking should
state "Access and describe personality" for a target personality.
The tasking should state "Locate object" or "Locate personality"
for a search project. It has been scientifically proven that the
less information given to the remote viewer, the more accurate
the information. The more information given to a remote viewer,
the less accurate the information and the viewer will have a
tendency to theorize.
C. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Once the remote viewers have received
their tasking, they can then begin to conduct their sessions.
The remote viewing session activity will involve two basic
approaches and they are as follows:
1. Solo is where only the remote viewer works the
task.
2. Viewer/Monitor is a team effort whereby a monitor
records the information the viewer is receiving. A monitor is
optional and is requested by the viewer.
D. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Historically, a monitor is an
experienced remote viewer because considerable experience has
shown that there are a number of considerations, precautions and
potential problems for which the monitor should be prepared.
1. First, when a monitor is: present, it is especially
important to ensure that this individual has no knowledge
whatsoever of target possibilities. This is known as a double
blind. This precludes the monitor leading the viewer.

2. Second, there is a strong tendency to pick and
choose information according to a monitor's mental set and
preconceptions. It is in the act of interpretation that lies the
ever present possibility of misinterpretation.
3. Third, often times a monitor can become quite
frustrated with a remote viewer because of the nature of the
psychic information. It can seem incomplete, sporadic and
sometimes even symbolic or even irrelevant.
E. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) When a remote viewer has completed the
necessary session(s) needed to collect the information, he or she
will then write a report of his or her findings.
1. The report, which is essentially a summary of
information, will indicate the project number, the viewer's
identification number, the date of the report and session(s)
date(s). This report can also include corresponding drawings or
sketches of the target site.
2. When the remote viewer's report is completed, it
will then be provided to the Project Officer in order that an
evaluation can be made. (See Appendix B for a copy of a report).
F. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Feedback on the actual target will
only be made available to project personnel after all sessions
are completed and all the reports are recorded by the Project
Officer. It is imperative that the remote viewers do not discuss
their findings with each other until feedback is given by the
Project Officer.
G. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The Project Officer writes an
evaluation of the remote viewer's information. This is for the
purpose of determining how useful the information would be if it
were an actual operation. The evaluation is provided to the
remote viewer in conjunction with his or her feedback. The
evaluations of remote viewing sessions can be used to measure
unit intelligence production.
H. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) A Proficiency Enhancement Project
usually takes one week to complete. When a project is completed,
the picture or description of the target site, the tasking sheet
and the remote viewer's reports, to include any drawings or
sketches will then be filed in-house.
I. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Concurrent with working in-house
Proficiency Enhancement Projects, remote viewers should attend
seminars, conferences, meetings and workshops which will serve to

names of organizations that this office has utilized for
conferences, workshops, etc.
Vv. (U) OPERATIONAL PROTOCOLS:
A. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) In compliance with Congressional
direction for Project STAR GATE, operational users should be
identified in the DoD and Intelligence Community. When the
Activity Chief obtains the tasking from a customer via DIA, he
must ensure that the operations are valid and applicable.
B. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) The Activity Chief or the customer are
responsible for obtaining and securing the needed materials ina
sealed envelope. A number is assigned to the operation and then
the individual remote viewers are tasked to work the operation
via the tasking sheet.
1. The tasking sheet will be utilized by the Activity
Chief by exactly the same means as the Project Officer does for a
Proficiency Enhancement Project. However, a source number will
be utilized for identifying the viewer instead of an
identification number. This is due to the nature of viewing for
collection purposes.
2. In the operational mode, as with all viewing
projects, the tasking should be exactly the same as with a
Proficiency Enhancement Project. This is done in order that
information is not disclosed that could lead the viewer.
Cc. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Once the remote viewers receive their
tasking, they can begin to work their session(s). The remote
viewing activity involves one of the two basic approaches. A
viewer will work solo or request a monitor.
D. (S/NF/SG/LIMDIS) Occasionally a customer may wish to
sit in on a remote viewing session as an observer. If this is
the case, there are considerations which the customer should be
prepared.
1. Pirst, the customer should be quiet so that he does
not give the remote viewer subtle clues as to the nature and
