LOCH two PRs this morning. (BSNS WIRE) Loch Harris To Hold Press Conference and ELF Demonstration On C Loch Harris To Hold Press Conference and ELF Demonstration On Capitol Hill Business Editors & Feature Writers WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 12, 2000--Loch Harris Inc. (OTCBB:LOCH) will hold a press conference to demonstrate its ELF (an acronym for Eliminate Landmines Forever) landmine detector on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, Sept. 13, 2000. U.S. Capitol Police officers, under the supervision of a licensed special explosive expert, will handle samples of the most common landmine explosives (TNT, PETN and RDX) near the "House Triangle" on the Southeast side of the U.S. Capitol. The ELF will be put through a series of detection and identification blind tests before government officials, the press and the public. U.S. Representative Ron Klink (D-PA), sponsor of the demonstration, recently issued a letter to his colleagues in the House of Representatives encouraging them to attend the demonstration. Dr. Henry Blair, chief scientist for ChemTech, (a Loch Harris Inc. subsidiary) explained some of the principles behind the ELF technology. "A significant portion of the effluent from the explosive contained inside the landmine is absorbed onto soil particles in the immediate vicinity of the explosive device. This allows our remote sensing system using low energy X-rays to sample the surface and subsurface and detect the return fluorescence energy." One current demining technique consists of slowly probing the earth, inch by inch, with metal rods looking for landmines. ELF combines X-ray and florescent technologies in a portable device with a forward-looking range of two meters. "According to the American Red Cross there are more than 110 million landmines in over 80 countries," said Loch Harris CEO/President Rodney Boone. "Every 22 minutes an innocent civilian dies from a landmine explosion. ELF could possibly be used to assist in locating buried landmines and explosives in The Balkans, Mozambique, Cambodia, Vietnam and other affected countries around the world."
