Anonymous writes that there is a CIA facility in Bend, Oregon, called CPIC/West, balancing one in Miami called CPIC/Miami. FAS offers a description of Miami which references Bend: http://www.fas.org/irp/facility/cia_miami.htm And to possibly flesh out the operations run out of the Bend base, Anon points to a statement which alleges black and criminal government doings in which Bend is mentioned: http://www.dcia.com/evergree.html Nothing in these accounts about CIA's ISTAC. Informative data-mining, A P, but to avoid nailing the innocent, double check the Mueller names and aliases, for the person listed on the NIC.gov records has a different middle initial from the Mueller you're dogging. That name might be deception, no doubt, but it could also be a stolen name and identity, even address, from a real person who is unaware. If stolen, or fictional, that might explain why the personal info was provided in the clear at NIC. Still, there may be no reason to conceal anything about the Bend faciltiy or Mr. Mueller's participation. Perhaps an email to Mr. Mueller would be the way to find out, so this will be cc'd to him (and Dan S at ISTAC) for a response. Dear Mr. Mueller and Mr. S, Would you please confirm that there is a CIA facility in Bend, OR, and that the terms CPIC/West and ISTAC are applicable to it? Also, could you clarify whether CIA's ISTAC is related to the ISTAC of the Bureau of Export Administration? Thanks very much, John Young 212-873-8700 --- It turns out mail to dan@istac.gov refused to go from here, so Dan S is safely SCIF.
