This Clinton Presidential Library file from the National Security Council holds Presidential Determination 95-45, signed September 29, 1995. The determination exempts the Air Force's operating location near Groom Lake, Nevada, from hazardous waste disclosure rules that would require releasing classified information. It came out of the lawsuits Kasza v. Browner and Frost v. Perry. The file also includes Anthony Lake's decision memo, Secretary Sheila Widnall's declaration claiming the military and state secrets privilege, and a Deputy Secretary of Defense recommendation.
