"NRAG is the organization in charge of the so-called Beta Programs, spear-headed by Eric Byer, a retired Air Force colonel who built the programs from the ground-up and has maintained them all the way. Although they've been behind the scenes since the very beginning, it is only when Pamela Landy and Jason Bourne expose Treadstone that NRAG begins to enter the spotlight. During the review, NRAG determines that its programs have the potential to be compromised due to the ill-advised sharing of assets between the various black projects by over-zealous CIA officials. The programs reviewed by the investigative team are Emerald Lake, Treadstone, Blackbriar, Outcome, and LARX."@en . .
