PAN OUT

Photo shows along a curving road: a helicopter landing pad, a guard building adjoining
two northwest portals, and two northeast portals.

Note the faint evidence of a large four-armed cross atop the hill, each arm several hundred yards long,
with the central crossing near the communications building. Perhaps it's an antenna, or perhaps
a benchmark, for satellite communication. A conventional tower antenna is next to the building.

DoD News Briefing - ASD PA Clarke and Brig. Gen. Rosa

Q: Can I ask you a question off the 2002 defense supplemental? There's been a lot of publicity about continuity of government. Within the supplemental, you're asking for $74 billion for something called "Site R" that -- apparently, it's a continuity-of-government facility. And this is for upgrades for power, cooling and to incorporate principal staff and joint staff into an organized system. Can you talk a little bit of -- what actually is Site R, and how does this fit into the overall continuity-of-government plans of the Bush administration?

Clarke: Well, it fits into the overall continuity-of- government plans. It fits into plans...a plan that has been in place for some time, well before September 11th. It has been going on, I think, since the start of the Cold War, probably, to make sure that in times of emergency or crisis, the government, in this case the Pentagon and military, can and will continue to operate. So I don't know the specific details about that piece of it you're talking about, but it is to make sure we do have all the communications that we want to have.

Again, a lot of these things were in place before September 11th. Given the heightened state of awareness and the concerns, people are taking a hard look, do we have everything we want to have in place. So I'm sure that's what it's dedicated to.

Q: Is Site R a physical location, which you're not going to disclose, obviously, but is it a location or more of a plan, just a name for a plan?

Clarke: It is part of an overall plan to make sure that the military, the Pentagon can be up and operating. And I'll just leave it at that.

Q: (Inaudible) - physical, standing location that you're upgrading?

Clarke: I'll just leave it at that.

Okay, Barbara?
