to entry). Any special entry requirements, above and beyond
the anthrax vaccination, are posted on the door to each room.
Prior to entering each room, HMRT personnel must check to see
that there are no special entry requirements.
2) Non-anthracis Bacillus species in room[ |
In November of 2006, non-anthracis Bacillus species
were collected from a freezer(located in the[__ | suite hallway) —_
known to house the materials. None of the culture or ‘
environmental samples tested to date genetically match the
non-anthracis Bacillus contaminant discovered in the Fall
2001, Post and Brokaw threat letters. It is possible that
refrigerators and freezers located in room may contain
samples of non-anthracis Bacillus. Any identifiable (via
labeling) non-anthracis Bacillus species should be collected
from room
3) Digital media and storage items
Digital media and storage items will he collected
from Dr. Ivins's cold-si nge room lockers, space,
and rooms[-——=édi:C§aand The collection of digital media
items will be performed under the guidance of the on-scene
CART examiner.
4) General evidence
This is meant to serve as a reminder to be observant
for potential items of interest during the overall search and
collection process. Items of interest include; notes,
envelopes, paper envelope bands, tape, items with pieces of
tape, and documents that may be evidence of involvement in the

[ laboratory space. Refrigerators and freezers located
within Dr. Ivins's[_ laboratory space may house non-
anthracis Bacillus samples. It is known that Dr. Ivins
maintains non-pathogenic samples of Bacillus anthracis as well
as non-viable, gamma irradiated samples of Bacillus anthracis.
If the Bacillus subtilis contaminant originated from USAMRIID,
the samples described here may possess genetic signatures of
the Bacillus subtilis contaminant. Samples of non-anthracis
