Presidential Determination No. 2003-39 of September 16,
2003


Classified Information Concerning the Air Force's
Operating Location Near Groom Lake, Nevada

Memorandum for the Administrator of the Environmental
Protection Agency [and] the Secretary of the Air Force

I find that it is in the paramount interest of the
United States to exempt the United States Air Force's
operating location near Groom Lake, Nevada, the subject
of litigation in Kasza v. Browner (D. Nev. CV-S-94-795-
PMP) and Frost v. Perry (D. Nev. CV-S-94-714-PMP), from
any applicable requirement for the disclosure to
unauthorized persons of classified information
concerning that operating location. Therefore, pursuant
to 42 U.S.C. 6961(a), I hereby exempt the Air Force's
operating location near Groom Lake, Nevada, from any
Federal, State, interstate or local provision
respecting control and abatement of solid waste or
hazardous waste disposal that would require the
disclosure of classified information concerning the
operating location to any unauthorized person. This
exemption shall be effective for the full one-year
statutory period.
