September 10, 2019—Ignore the Erroneous EPRI EMP Report!

by Henry F. Cooper on September 9, 2019 in EDTF, EMP, EPRI, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Kwast, Lake Wylie

“Critical infrastructure keeps our food fresh, our houses warm, our trade flowing, and our citizens productive and safe. The vulnerability of U.S. critical infrastructure to cyber, physical and electromagnetic attacks means that adversaries could disrupt military command and control, banking and financial operations, the electrical grid and means of communication.” ~President Donald Trump, identifying the most serious existential threats to Americans in his Dec. 18, 2017 National Security Strategy statement Read Full Story

May 7, 2019—An Erroneous EPRI EMP Report!

by Henry F. Cooper on May 6, 2019 in EDTF, EMP, EPRI, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Lake Wylie

The Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI) presents a substantial obstacle, at least for the uninformed, to urgently needed protection of the electric power grid from an all too real existential electromagnetic pulse (EMP) threat. Read Full Story

April 2, 2019—EMP Executive Order: Good News, Bad News . . .

by Henry F. Cooper on April 1, 2019 in EMP, EMP Executive Order, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Lake Wylie, North Carolina, SC EMP Protection, South Carolina, York County

President Trump’s March 26, 2019 Executive Order 13865 “Executive Order on Coordinating National Resilience to Electromagnetic Threats” is very important, but it leaves a challenge for the dysfunctional federal government, a condition that should give local citizens and leaders a great incentive for countering this now identified potentially urgent problem “from the bottom-up.” Read Full Story

January 15, 2019—Lake Wylie Pilot Study Lessons

by Henry F. Cooper on January 14, 2019 in Duke Energy, EMP, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Lake Wylie, Rock Hill, SC EMP Protection, South Carolina, Texas

We plan to share lessons learned in our Lake Wylie Pilot Study throughout South and North Carolina and then to the rest of the nation. Yesterday’s discussions in Austin, Texas set the stage sharing those lessons outside the southeast; in this case outside the Eastern Interconnection of the Nation’s electric power grid. Since Texas has its own Interconnection, lessons learned in Texas will benefit the Eastern and Western Interconnections of the nation’s grid. Read Full Story

by Henry F. Cooper on December 17, 2018 in Duke Energy, EMP, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Lake Wylie, Rock Hill, SC EMP Protection, South Carolina

Washington has been dysfunctional in at best limited efforts to protect the American people from existential electromagnetic pulse (EMP) threats from Russia, China, North Korea, Iran and even terrorists that somehow obtain a nuclear weapon, launch it from a vessel off our coast and detonate it at high altitude over the United States.

June 13, 2017—Lights Out?

by Henry F. Cooper on June 12, 2017 in Aegis, Aegis BMD, EMP, Henry F. Cooper, High Frontier, Lake Wylie, North Korea

Analysts who write off the possibility of a nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attack from North Korea as “unlikely” and “science fiction” because they believe the 10 to 20 kiloton nuclear weapons currently possessed by North Korea are incapable of making an effective EMP attack, dismiss the consensus view of “EMP experts who have advanced degrees in physics and electrical engineering along with several decades of experience in the field — with access to classified data throughout that time — and who have conducted EMP tests on a wide variety of electronic systems, beginning in 1963.” ~ Dr. William R. Graham, President Reagan’s Science Advisor and current Chairman of the EMP Commission. Read Full Story

“CIPA implements one of the most important recommendations of the EMP Commission to prevent societal mass destruction. It directs the Department of Homeland Security to establish new national planning scenarios focused on protecting and recovering the nation from an EMP catastrophe. All federal, state, and local emergency planning, training, and resource allocation are based on the DHS national planning scenarios.” ~ Ambassador R.
