Mount Weather, a mysterious underground military base carved deep inside a mountain near the sleepy rural town of Bluemont, Virginia, just 46 miles from Washington DC.
Mount Weather - also known as the Western Virginia Office of Controlled Conflict Operations:
Mount Weather is the self-sustaining underground command center for the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
Buried deep inside the earth, Mount Weather was equipped with such amenities as:
- private apartments and dormitories
- streets and sidewalks
- cafeterias and hospitals
- a water purification system, power plant and general office buildings
- a small lake fed by fresh water from underground springs
- its own mass transit system
- a TV communication system
Nine Federal departments are replicated within Mount Weather:
- Agriculture
- Commerce
- Health, Education & Welfare
- Housing & Urban Development
- Interior; Labor; State
- Transportation
- Treasury
- As well as at least five Federal agencies:
- Federal Communications Commission
- Selective Service
- Federal Power Commission
- Civil Service Commission
- Veterans Administration
This is not a big secret, as there is information readily available from FEMA: Mount Weather Fact Sheet
