The Department of Defense announced today the establishment of a World Wide Web site sponsored by the Cooperative Threat Reduction (CTR) Program. The CTR program provides assistance to eligible states of the former Soviet Union to help dismantle their weapons of mass destruction arsenals.

The CTR's new web site, now available on the Internet at http://www.ctr.osd.mil, is a comprehensive source on how CTR projects combat the ever-changing threat posed by these weapons.
