HAARP Facility Shut Down Last May Due to Budget Cuts
HAARP Facility Shuts Down

The High Frequency Active
Auroral Research Program (HAARP) — a subject of
fascination for many hams and the target of conspiracy
theorists and anti-government activists — has closed
down. HAARP’s program manager, Dr James Keeney at
Kirtland Air Force Base in New Mexico, told ARRL that
the sprawling 35-acre ionospheric research facility in
remote Gakona, Alaska, has been shuttered since early
May.
“Currently the site is
abandoned,” he said. “It comes down to money. We don’t
have any.” Keeney said no one is on site, access roads
are blocked, buildings are chained and the power
turned off. HAARP’s website
through the University of Alaska no longer is
available; Keeney said the program can’t afford to pay
for the service. “Everything is in secure mode,” he
said, adding that it will stay that way at least for
another 4 to 6 weeks. In the meantime a new prime
contractor will be coming on board to run the
government owned-contractor operated (GOCO) facility.
HAARP put the world on
notice two years ago that it would be shutting down
and did not submit a budget request for FY 15, Keeney
said, “but no one paid any attention.” Now, he says,
they’re complaining. “People came unglued,” Keeney
said, noting that he’s already had inquiries from
Congress. Universities that depended upon HAARP
research grants also are upset, he said.
The only bright spot on
HAARP’s horizon right now is that the Defense Advanced
Research Projects Agency (DARPA) is
expected on site as a client to finish up some
research this fall and winter. DARPA has nearly $8.8
million in its FY 14 budget plan to research “physical
aspects of natural phenomena such as magnetospheric
sub-storms, fire, lightning and geo-physical
phenomena.”
The proximate cause of
HAARP’s early May shutdown was less fiscal than
environmental, Keeney said. As he explained it, the
diesel generators on site no longer pass Clean Air Act
muster. Repairing them to meet EPA standards will run
$800,000. Beyond that, he said, it costs $300,000 a
month just to keep the facility open and $500,000 to
run it at full capacity for 10 days.
Jointly funded by the US Air Force
Research Laboratory and the US
Naval Research Laboratory, HAARP is an
ionospheric research facility. Its best-known
apparatus is its 3.6 MW HF (approximately 3 to 10 MHz)
ionospheric research instrument (IRI), feeding an
extensive system of 180 gain antennas and used to
“excite” sections of the ionosphere. Other onsite
equipment is used to evaluate the effects.
Larry Ledlow, N1TX, of
Fairbanks, Alaska, said HAARP ionosonde and riometer
data have been “invaluable, especially being more or
less local, to understand current conditions in the
high latitudes.” He said data from other sites “simply
do not accurately reflect the unique propagation we
endure here.”
To fill the gap, Ledlow
said, several members of the Arctic Amateur Radio Club
— including Eric Nichols, KL7AJ, author of Radio
Science for the Radio Amateur and articles
in QST — have discussed building their own
instruments. “It’s all very preliminary,” he said,
“but we really feel the pinch losing HAARP.” Nichols,
of North Pole, Alaska, has conducted experiments at
HAARP. He called the shutdown “a great loss to
interior Alaska hams and many others.”
The ultra-high power
facility long has intrigued hams, even outside of
Alaska. In 1997, HAARP transmitted test signals on HF
(3.4 MHz and 6.99 MHz) and solicited reports from hams
and short-wave listeners in the “Lower 48” to
determine how well the HAARP transmissions could be
heard to the south. In 2007 HAARP succeeded
in bouncing a 40 meter signal off the moon. Earlier
this year, HAARP scientists successfully
produced a sustained high-density plasma cloud
in Earth’s upper atmosphere.
As things stand, the Air
Force has possession for now, but if no other agency
steps forward to take over HAARP, the unique facility
will be dismantled, Keeney said. He pointed out that
it would cost less to bulldoze the antenna field than
it would to replace the 180 antennas.
Splashy web postings
abound, blaming HAARP for controlling the weather —
most recently in the case of Hurricane Sandy and the
spate of tornados — and for causing other natural
disasters. Quipped Keeney, “If I actually could affect
the weather, I’d keep it open.”
