Among other things, the Government will appeal the court's decision that a Presidential exemption is required to protect classified information. Plaintiffs will seek to over-turn the court's decisions to proceed with exhibits under seal and on attorney's fees in addition to challenging the lower court's dismissal of both cases. The 9th Circuit would likely rule six to twelve months later. exemption. The exemption was necessitated by litigation over RCRA compliance at the facility. While ruling that the information in question was appropriately classified, the Federal district court ruled that under RCRA classified information could only be protected from public disclosure pursuant to a Presidential exemption. That ruling remains under appeal by both the plaintiffs and government, which argues among other things that a Presidential exemption under RCRA is not required in order to protection classified information. 351CA35E.FIN Page 1 of 1 Exchange Mail DATE-TIME 3/4/98 4:55:55 PM FROM Baker, James E.

(AP) Green circles that have been cropping up in a grassy amphitheater in Rotary Community Park had early-morning walkers fluttering their fingers to simulate a descending spaceship. With a secret military operation only a couple of hours' drive north Nellis Air Force Base's Area 51, many were wondering about the circles' origin. One walker claimed he had seen an Air Force truck pull into the park, its driver snap some photographs, then leave. Others claimed to have heard mysterious noises after 10 p.m., the park's closing time. But there's a very earthy answer, says Bart Wagner, parks division manager of the city's parks and recreation director. Mushrooms. "They're just like the fairy rings in Rip Van Winkle, which he entered and fell asleep for 20 years," said Larry Mick, Lake Havasu High School biology and physical sciences teacher. Just doesn't cut it [UNCLASSIFIED] Sanborn, Daniel R. K. Dean, Susan W. Starks, Tali T. Hasman, Thomas M. 36378321.FIN Page 2 of2 Under the grass is the mycelium, the mushroom, and like an earthworm, it feeds on dead grass and water and it releases nutrients that create the green grass rings. The mushrooms themselves are the fruity manifestation of the hidden underground organism, Mick and Wagner explained.

Page 1 of2 L DIA Home | What's New | Products by Type | Products by Region | Feedback | Help UFO Theorists Mining NSA Site For X-Files Spy agency flooded with requests after reports go on Web By Laura Sullivan, Sun Staff Phillips said the "conspiracies" that believers are deriving from the postings can be easily explained. Much of the latest increase in requests is a result of better technology. In the past, people interested in viewing the agency's files would have to find its address and know whom to write to, then type and mail Two years ago, the National Security Agency began posting previously classified documents on its Web site to deflect the growing number of requests each year for information about flying saucers and space aliens. But the plan backfired. Among the postings from the files of nation's most-secret spy agency is a National Enquirer article with the headline, "Take UFOs Seriously or Be Prepared for Sneak Invasion By Space Aliens." All of this is fueling speculation among believers who wonder why, for something that doesn't exist, the agency has collected a ton of records. "These documents contain the term UFO, but they are not necessarily about aliens," she said. "They just contain the term which describes an object that was flying that was unidentified" at the time. Rather than relieving suspicions that the agency is hiding information about unidentified flying objects, the result has been more people than ever demanding to see UFO documents. A record 36,000 people perused the UFO page last month. As for the Enquirer article - which one UFO enthusiast says proves that the weekly tabloid known for its alien abduction stories has been right all along - Phillips says it's more likely that it was clipped for amusement and found on someone's desk after they retired. What has piqued UFO believers' interest is not so much what the documents on the Web site say - often little or nothing between the blacked-out censored sections - but their extraordinary volume: thousands of pages of unofficial reports and antiquated radio interceptions from abroad. The NSA staff, burdened with hundreds of written requests under the Freedom of Information Act, is unamused. Staff members say the time required for the UFO requests slows down the response time for all requests. The agency hasn't kept exact numbers about UFO requests. But Pamela Phillips, chief of FOIA/Privacy Act Services, said the increase in letters asking about UFOs has been "significant," forcing the office to hire several additional staff members. Baltimore Sun August 8, 2000 UFO Theorists Mining NSA Site For X-Files \l Fx! DAfAnsp IntplliapncA Anpncv UNCLASSIFIED - FOUO Page 2 of 2 n h Believers say what the documents don't say is most interesting. The agency hasn't added to the UFO page since its first posting two years ago, but it plans to soon, Phillips said, especially for the most commonly requested items. Even with lists and a stack of frequently requested documents close by, agency officials say it's hard to keep up with requests that are similar but change by a single word. Every request, no matter how similar to a previous one must be queried again and given the same attention. "Maybe it has nothing to do with aliens, that's a possibility," said Greenwald, of California. "But I've never found so many documents this blacked out before, and that adds to the fascination." The NS A apparently intercepted radio communications of an Iranian pilot who said he had temporarily lost control of his airplane when he encountered something in the air that he couldn't identify. "The fact that they're releasing this stuff and it's so blacked out, the theories just flurry," said John Greenwald, who has collected UFO documents from NSA and other agencies for more than five years and posts them on his Web site, "The Black Vault." To Greenwald and other enthusiasts, it comes as no surprise that so many people are perusing the security agency's UFO documents. One batch of papers deals with an alleged "spotting" in Iran in the 1970s, which has captured the imaginations of many believers. The documents on the Web - at http://nsa.gov/docs/efoia/released/ufo.html - shed no additional light on this situation, which only adds to viewers' curiosity. Agency officials said most of the UFO requests they receive ask for information about specific words pulled from the online documents. Enthusiasts believe the agency categorizes documents under keywords - and they just haven't hit on the right word yet. "More people than ever are interested in this stuff," said Peter Gersten, an Arizona-based attorney and director of Citizens Against UFO Secrecy. "Each year you get more and more people, especially young people. With 'X-Files* and 'Star Wars,' it's exotic. It's entertaining. It's the greatest mystery of all time." In pre-Intemet times, most requests for documents with a keyword would center on popular tales such as "Area 51," "Roswell," or "Philadelphia Experiment." Today, the keywords are more numerous, prompting agency officials to compile lists of common ones - such as "snowbird" and "sigma" - and the results of those searches, so they don't duplicate their efforts.
