Chemtrails: A List of UK Biological Warfare Tests Conducted In Populated Areas: 1949-1976 , page 1

Those interested in 'Chemtrails' often cite the extensive series of UK Cold War Public Area Biological Warfare experiments (conducted by military scientists from the UK Government's Chemical and Biological Warfare research facility at Porton Down), as evidence of a past clandestine Governmental spraying programme. [See Anthony Barnett's Observer article Millions were in germ tests ]

As there appears to be some confusion as to the size and number of these experiments, I've complied a list of known Porton Down public area BW experiments which will hopefully clarify matters.

The following is the result of 11 years exhaustive research, and was achieved by the use of:-political lobbying; the Code of Practice on Access to Government Information; the UK Freedom of Information Act (which came into force during January 2005); Written Parliamentary Questions; The National Archive (formerly the PRO).

The list contains details of Porton Down Biological Warfare experiments, which were conducted in populated areas during the years 1949-1976. Details of further Porton Down public area BW experiments (if any) have not yet been made available to the public.

It is important to recognise that the experiments used BW 'simulants'* and not real BW agents.

[*A Biological Warfare 'simulant' is a supposedly harmless substance which mimics the physical properties of a real BW agent. Some BW simulants, such as E.coli MRE162 (EC), Bacillis subtilis (BG), Serratia marcescens (SM), are capable of causing adverse health effects. Others (such as FP - aka Zinc Cadmium sulphide) are known hazardous chemical compounds)]

It is extremely important to understand that the column entitled - 'Source Location' - only shows the location of the source of the often massive aerosol clouds. The aerosols themselves were often carried up to 100 miles downwind of the source location (sometimes 200+ miles). Sampling of bacterial aerosols at distances of 50+ miles proved that the clouds still contained a high concentration of what Porton refer to as 'an appreciable dose of viable bacteria'.
