A "Safe Site" - Mount Weather "Area B"

Congress taxed you into providing for their safety: Where would you go? from Political Truth Serum

Mount Weather is a civilian command facility in the state of Virginia, used as the center of operations for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Its preferred designation since 1991 is "SF" (special facility.)

The facility is located in the Blue Ridge Mountains with access to the operations center available via Virginia State Route 601 in Bluemont, Virginia. The facility is located near Berryville, 48 miles from Washington, D.C.

This is a major relocation site for the highest level of civilian and military officials in case of national disaster, playing a major role in U.S. continuity of government (COG.)

Continuity of government (COG) is no longer limited to nuclear emergencies and was activated following the September 11 attacks.

According to a letter to the editor of The Washington Post, after the September 11 attacks, most of the congressional leadership was evacuated to Mount Weather by helicopter.

The underground 'safe' facility within Mount Weather, designated "Area B", is a 600,000 sq. ft. facility and was completed in 1959.

The site was brought into the public eye by The Washington Post, when the government facility was mentioned while reporting on the December 1, 1974, crash into Mount Weather of TWA Flight 514.

It is designated a safe site for the country's politicians under the COG plan.

Between 1979 and 1981, the National Gallery of Art developed a program to transport valuable paintings in its collection to Mount Weather via helicopter. The success of the relocation would depend upon how far in advance warning of an attack was received.

Obviously, there are a number of special interests that have been assured safety during events that could undermine public safety.
