(EST Pub Date) Dda Memorandum

Central Intelligence Agency · 1973-01-01 · 7 pages · text by GLM-OCR

This undated CIA memorandum for the Deputy Director for Administration, catalogued with an estimated date of 1973, reviews the agency's past drug research under the OFTEN and CHICKWIT projects run by its Office of Research and Development. It concludes that no drug programs remain undiscovered and that the planned agency-funded human testing of the chemical EA 3167 at Edgewood Arsenal never took place before the program ended in January 1973. It finds that only Edgewood could identify test subjects or evaluate the chemical's long-term effects.

OBTAIN PHARMACOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF EA 3167 AND HAVE IT CONFIRMED BY OMS

ACTION REQUESTED: Obtain a pharmacological evaluation of potential long-term after-effects on EA 3167; get OMS confirmation.

A. Findings -- ORD has insufficient data and does not have the competence to make a pharmacological evaluation of EA 3167

-- Unlikely OMS could confirm an evaluation since EA 3167 is an Edgewood-developed Glycolate class chemical.

B. Conclusion -- Any such evaluation would have to come from Edgewood
