This is a Clinton Presidential Library release from the NSC email collection, filed under Area 51 and covering September 1997 to February 2000. It contains withdrawal sheets for redacted emails along with released messages. Staff are told not to use the term Area 51, and draft press guidance says the President renewed an exemption for the Air Force operating location near Groom Lake, Nevada, from disclosure requirements under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. One message jokes about jury duty summonses sending staff to Area 51.

Not Yet Scheduled
* SRB call to Charlie Rangel about possible travel
to North Korea (points will be coming shortly);

a list (mostly Republicans but also a handful of Democrats) to come
to the Pentagon over the next month. The idea is to one meeting
per week - beginning when the Senate returns next week. Q: do
you want to join any of these meetings?
* SRB meeting with Dick Gephardt on Thursday

Topics should be MEPP, Colombia, Africa (i.e., his trip), and Russia.
We also need to be prepared for the F-15 issue;
* Thomas/Feinstein
on Taiwan/PNTR. I sent you a proposed list of invitees for a bipartisan
meeting on Taiwan/PNTR with the Thomas/Feinstein group. Target would
be the week of February 21;
* SRB makes
follow-up call to Jim Jeffords on Tibetan human rights case (points
with Mona);
* Warner. I have spoken with State
and Defense about having a meeting at the WH with Warner for a discussion
on Kosovo. We are still discussing who should be invited to join
Warner. In any case, it can't be scheduled until next week because
the Senate is out this week;

discuss a repeat performance - waiting for the right moment;

Porter Goss on Colombia. I sent you a final set of points on Friday
which includes a section from Mary McCarthy on NSA;
