WASHINGTON, March 15 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The United States Army, in conjunction with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Lincoln Laboratory, Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, will commence the sixth in a series of tests designed to provide data for the development of an early warning system for chemical and biological events. The tests will be conducted in the Canadian River Valley March 17 - 23. During these tests water will be disseminated from a Cessna 188 AgWagon or crop duster aircraft.
Additionally, a Cessna 182A aircraft will be used to conduct non-dissemination trials. Flight paths will vary by altitude and heading and generally will be conducted south and west of the Will Rogers World Airport in Oklahoma City. These trials will generally follow the same format as previous Canadian River field trials.
Testing conducted in March, April, May and November 2003 and January and February 2004 produced favorable results. The tests are designed to provide information on the feasibility and current capability of commonly used radars to provide an early warning system for chemical and biological events. The objective of these trials is to verify the development to date of the algorithms and the associated information transfer connections for the early warning system. The tests pose no health or safety hazards to the public.
Information about the test, to include a map, will be available on the Internet at http://www.jpeocbd.osd.mil/CA_Infopaper.htm. The public may also call the Army's toll-free Multi-Mission Sensor Test Information Line at (866) 223-1101 for a daily-recorded message about scheduled test sites and times. Messages left on the information line will be returned in a timely manner.
For more information contact Ms. Cynthia O. Smith at (703) 697-5344.
