SPECIAL REPORT: WFBR 1300 AM - BOB OECHSLER
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
We've been reporting our investigations over the past several
|
||
|
|
weeks into the activities surrounding the Bay Bridge UFO Sightings
|
||
|
|
in Annapolis and our inquiries into the possible interest these
|
||
|
|
UFO's might have in this area.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Our theory was that perhaps they may have more than a
|
||
|
|
passing interest in the EMP tests (electromagnetic pulse) that we
|
||
|
|
discovered were being conducted in the area. It was reported
|
||
|
|
that MORE THAN A MILLION FISH WERE KILLED in the Chesapeake
|
||
|
|
Bay during one of these tests early this year. We reported that
|
||
|
|
a suit had been filed in federal court against the government to
|
||
|
|
stop the testing. Discussions with officials at EPA resulted in a plea
|
||
|
|
of ignorance. An official with the Navy indicated that the EMP
|
||
|
|
tests were probably the result of degaussing of ships in the Bay.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Today in the Washington Post it was announced that The Defense
|
||
|
|
Department, under a legal agreement reached Friday night, must
|
||
|
|
stop or moderate its electromagnetic pulse experiments at
|
||
|
|
laboratories in Maryland, Virginia, Alabama and New Mexico
|
||
|
|
until the government determines whether the energy is harming
|
||
|
|
people and wildlife.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The article goes on to say that electromagnetic pulse (EMP)
|
||
|
|
is one type of radiation generated by nuclear explosions. The
|
||
|
|
Pentagon has been simulating EMP to determine how to protect
|
||
|
|
the circuitry in its planes, tanks and ships from being disabled
|
||
|
|
by it. The Soviet Union, according to duscussions with the Pentagon,
|
||
|
|
is far along on a "zap gun" that would use EMP radiation to kill
|
||
|
|
troops and disable vehicles, and the Pentagon is interested in
|
||
|
|
developing a similar weapon.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Justice Department, representing the Pentagon, reached the
|
||
|
|
agreement this weekend with the Foundation on Economic Trends,
|
||
|
|
an environmental group that sued on the grounds that the
|
||
|
|
experiments were proceeding without the government first assessing
|
||
|
|
their potential harm. The foundation had taken steps to question
|
||
|
|
two employees of a Woodbridge, Virginial laboratory constructing
|
||
|
|
EMP generators, about their environmental concerns and the
|
||
|
|
alleged suppression of documents when the Justice Department
|
||
|
|
suddenly decided to settle the case.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The settlement states that the Navy's EMP facilities at Patuxent,
|
||
|
|
Maryland Naval Air Station must be operated at low voltage, not
|
||
|
|
more than one kilovolt per meter, until the environmental risks
|
||
|
|
are assessed. AND the Navy's Empress I EMP simulator in the
|
||
|
|
middle of the Chesapeake Bay may not be operated at all until
|
||
|
|
the impact of its pulses is assessed. The projected Empress II
|
||
|
|
pulse generator can not be built unless the Pentagon first
|
||
|
|
files an environmental impact statement.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
What impact will this have on UFO activity over these areas?
|
||
|
|
Only time will tell.
