                Presidential Determination No. 95-45 of September 29, 
                1995

                
Presidential Determination on 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. Sec. 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 that 
                operating location to any unauthorized person. This 
                exemption shall be effective for the full one-year 
                statutory period.

                Nothing herein is intended to: (a) imply that in the 
                absence of such a Presidential exemption, the Resource 
                Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) or any other 
                provision of law permits or requires disclosure of 
                classified information to unauthorized persons; or (b) 
                limit the applicability or enforcement of any 
                requirement of law applicable to the Air Force's 
                operating location near Groom Lake, Nevada, except 
                those provisions, if any, that would require the 
                disclosure of classified information.

                The Secretary of the Air Force is authorized and 
                directed to publish this Determination in the Federal 
                Register.

                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    Washington, September 29, 1995.
