Heliport (Deck)
Above the central facilities is a platform equipped with ambient noise suppression technology and Gestalt Suppression Antennas for the concealment of approaching aircraft upon arrival at Site-313.
This site has seen the arrival of great minds from both the SCP Foundation and the civilian world (See Sociology Facility).
Administrative Offices (First Floor)
The entire first floor of the central facility is occupied by staff who maintain bureaucratic relations within the SCP Foundation and perform the relevant paperwork.
Here you can find the Ethics, Internal Affairs, Research and Containment departments as well as Human Resources. Additionally, the Site Director's office and adjoining staff are located here.
This is usually one of the most peaceful places in Site-313. Still, there have been some notable events, such as mysterious violent deaths that led to an anomaly, as well as the dismissal and total classification of information of Researcher Reinaldo Casas. Although this seemed not to be a strange occurrence, the implications behind the events months after the fact disturbed the staff. For more information, refer to RAISA.
Entrance and Main Courtyard (Ground Floor)
There are several escape routes from the central facility, but still one main entrance and several entrances positioned in strategic locations. Thus, the main entrance leads first to an open-air lobby around the facility's courtyard and garden, created to comfort staff and boost morale.
This main garden contains a variety of flowers and trees, as well as a small stream that takes advantage of the local climate. The courtyard is circular, connecting to the cafeteria, loading and unloading area and staff dormitories.
Café (Ground Floor)
This is the only café on site and is open most of the day (from 6 a.m. to 12 p.m.). It also has vending machines of multiple types available.
In addition to being quite large, it maintains a menu that they usually change weekly to maintain staff morale, although most say that Sunday, unofficially nicknamed "Barbecue Sunday", is when the best food is served. The cafeteria had to be closed during [REDACTED] due to events caused by [REDACTED].
Loading and Unloading Zone (Ground Floor)
This is where staff resources arrive, so Internal Affairs keeps a close watch on this sector as it is often a target for possible theft or sabotage by external groups.
To date, there has been only one incident, caused by a package of self-replicating bees. These caused the temporary loss of the Loading and Unloading Zone by building a large honeycomb that ended up covering it in its entirety. The neutralization of the anomaly and further details are on file, please refer to RAISA for more information.

Facility Head: Valentine Docampo
Purpose: Research, experimentation and development of behavior, cognitive processes, memory and sapiency at anomalous level. Psychological support to general staff. Low-value containment.
Adjoining Departments: Cognitohazards Department, General Psychology Department
Building Date: 16 March 1952
Sections
Cognitohazards Department
Carlos Aldana, current head of the Cognitohazards Department
One of the first Site-313 departments to be created and probably the one with the most stories to tell. Its researchers are hard at work in a vast and comprehensive field.
This department deals with most of the generic anomalies of the mind: Mnemonic, cognitive and compulsive anomalies, among other variants. It stands out for its capacity for population analysis and deduction.
To date, two important events related to the Cognitohazards Department are publicly known: The betrayal of the former Head Researchers Bernardo Maquiavelo (2006) and Reinaldo Casas (2011). Under these events, Site management is keeping a significant portion of the Internal Affairs Department to investigate this Department. It is currently unknown what acts Res. Casas was going to commit, but given his affection by the Libra Event (see Additional Information), he has been classified as such.
General Psychology Department (Ground Floor)
Department focused on behavioral analysis, not only of personnel, but also of the Site's conscious and intelligent anomalies. It also provides psychological support to the general staff, offering counselors and therapists.
This department is also in charge of training, in alliance with the Internal Affairs Department, interviewers, negotiators and, in general, personnel focused on non-hostile deterrence. It also liaises with the Ethics Department for the creation of the laws governing Site-313, as well as with the Memetics Department for staff training.
The General Psychology Department has been involved in several major events, including:
- The 1995 Resource Blockade (see Additional Information).
- The dissolution of the hive mind that abducted the minds of the personnel in the Tar Moon Incident: Occurring in 1971, it almost caused the dissolution of Site-313. Due to general personnel management policies (and by extension sentient anomalies): strenuous work, callousness, poor psychological support services and participation in unethical projects, and given the right situation, an egregore eventually manifested. The latter was jointly driving the affected personnel to protest against Site-313 and its management in their general discontent, creating a network of consciences under the slogan "Does the Tar Moon Howl?". Security and non-affected personnel had to handle these demonstrations and containment breaches accordingly. The incident ended when the establishment of a new, healthier work ethic was made public, with continuous medical support, among other benefits that made the personnel see themselves as human again.
- The Rapture Crisis: It began as a generalized apathy that extended for at least a week among the Psychology Facility staff. This apathy spilled over into other emotional problems, and by the eighth day, the Facility was abducted for 8 days from baseline reality by an ontological anomaly. The entire facility and its personnel were transported to a city of gothic architecture and permanent night. Here, the staff was challenged, as a public announcement, by shadowy-looking entities to "change the world". In order to survive in this place, the staff had to be strongly united and adhere to the challenge of the entities, so plans were devised from community outreach to scientific breakthroughs and open debates. The resolution of this event was given in court, where Dr. Astrid Feijoo (forensic psychologist and second in command) and Dr. Bermilio Acosta (former head of the General Psychology Department) defended the General Psychology Facility. For more information, please contact RAISA.
Dysanthropomorphic Psychology Division (Ground Floor)
Joint division of the General Psychology and Cognito hazards Department, oriented to the study of the animal and extraterrestrial psyche. It studies behavior, memory, sapiency, among other psychological traits that may present conscious living entities, intelligent or without any of these qualities.
In alliance with departments of external sites for the transmission of information regarding extraterrestrial entities.

Purpose: Research and development of medical-psychiatric treatments in general, as well as the study of the behavior of conscious entities at the neurological level. Medical treatment of general personnel.
Adjoining Departments: Neurosciences Department.
Building Date: 12 June 1962
Sections
Neurosciences Department (Ground Floor)
Alejandro Bruno, current head of the Neurosciences Department
Department oriented to the integral study of the human and humanoid nervous system and its psyche, carrying out psychiatric and neuroscientific work as usual or esoteric.
This department functions as a bridge between the different scientific departments present at Site-313, thus, the Neurosciences Department has among its fundamental tasks to unify the work of the related departments. Information classified under the code name "Hypnos Project", for more information request the files corresponding to RAISA.
The Neurosciences Department and its branches, being one of the longest-lived of Site-313, has many tragic and dark stories behind it. Publicly accounted for are:
- The Memory Enhancement Incident: A failed eidetic memory enhancement project. Those involved suffered mnemonic disorders such as inability to forget or cyclical memories throughout their lives.
- The Leg Explosion of 89': Created from a test with SCP-ES-███, part of the facilities near the test room were collapsed with lower limbs and at least 4 researchers and 3 guards died in this incident. However, as a consequence of this event, almost all inhabitants of a nearby village lost their legs. The incident was almost completely covered up and is now available as an urban legend.
- The Hugging Massacre: Event occurred during 1996, two researchers began to have compulsive effects that made them hug the staff. Enough physical contact ended up infecting this, to the point that 20% of the facility was infected and was subsequently shut down and a cleanup of the area was begun. It is known that those affected who were locked up prior to the cleaning period practiced from orgies to acts of cannibalism, however, one of the most notable events was their slow conversion to singular objects or concepts. It is currently hypothesized that such objects were correlated with those affected.
Dysanthropomorphic Research Division (Ground Floor)
A division of the Neurosciences Department focused on the investigation of the nervous system of animals, extraterrestrials, living entities, biological entities, or those that do not fit within current sapiency schemes.
The Ethics Department has prohibited nicknames for anomalies entering here as they could generate an affective bond more likely than with a humanoid. For more information, consult RAISA for a copy of "anivores and you".
Neurosciences Facility interior.
Forensic Psychiatry and Morgue Section (Subterranean Level 1)
Section in alliance with the Internal Affairs Department to investigate crimes committed within the facilities. Likewise, they are in charge of the investigation of crimes that fall under the study of any anomaly.
The Site-313 morgue is located on the same site. The Ethics Department has forbidden the subjects related to the deceased to know about their death until at least 1 week after their death, in order to avoid possible ontokinetic containment breaches.
Tangential Research Section (Subterranean Level 1)
Research section restricted to Level 4 personnel. Here the development of Tangential type artifacts that are kept under Level 4 classification due to their potential hostile use is carried out. Likewise, the technology used to create such artifacts remains classified for the time being until further study.
Despite their high secrecy, it is known that they have managed to create prototypes of tools widely used in the field of anomaly containment such as the Van-Dash Tamers, Infinite Downward Pointers and "Matryoska" psionic weapons Mk-III.

Adjoining Departments: Subversions Department.
Building Date: 24 October 1965
Sections
Subversions Department
Department oriented to decimate anomalous sociological behaviors, i.e., social movements driven by an anomaly, with an anomalous purpose or an anomalous intermediary. It maintains close relations with the General Psychology Department.
Recognized locally among the Foundation's other facilities for stopping several social movements of an anomalous nature. Among these movements can be found:
- The Forwarding of the Holy Ducks, destined to the exaltation of the ducks and a progressive domination change (Chile).
- Fifth Chiral Chimera Groups, groupings of five people, one of whom was the leader and had knowledge in specific kinetohazards that allowed him to assimilate the bodies of the adept people. This process would be repeated until all the people joined this movement. It is known that there were several famous figures involved (Argentina).
- Save the Earth Movement, a group of people who believed that the Earth would become extinct in a few years and therefore were looking for a way off the planet. To date it is known that the leader of this movement was linked to an informational and hallucinogenic anomaly that may have caused the acceleration of the extinction of life on Earth due to the growth of this movement (Mexico).
Miscellaneous anti-Foundation movements.
Sociological Studies and Control Division
AI modeling for music market.
Division of the Subversions Department and the Memetics Department. It is a division oriented to the study of information dissemination media and the investigation of effective methods of information insertion for various purposes.
This division is well known within Site-313 as it constantly maintains business relationships with artists from the Anglo and Hispanic spheres of music, as well as with some celebrities of common knowledge among the aforementioned population. Thus, the division can more easily conduct experiments or gather information from the targeted social groups.
Fine Arts Section
Section in partnership with the Control and Sociological Studies Division. It focuses on the study of art, its history and conceptualization in order to stay at the forefront of it, which provides a basis for extensive or intensive advertising.
It is known to maintain contact with several anartists who have retired or have no influence in the anomalous world.
Paralinguistics Section
Section in partnership with the Department of Memetics. It focuses on the study of human, extraterrestrial and anomalous linguistics, as well as its evolution and translation of texts from extinct societies.
Its main mission is the in-depth investigation not only of the past of these civilizations, but of their behavior in general and their culture in order to replicate it for the advancement of alternate departmental projects.
Currently one of his main projects focuses on the study of pro-communist language.

Sections
Psionics Department (Ground Floor)
Zair Noriega, current head of the Psionics Department
Department focused on the study of psychic projections and entities capable of paranormal psychic processes.
The field of study of this department ranges from ghosts, witches and tulpas, to a wide range of entities with kinesthetic abilities, such as pyrokinetics, hydrokinetics, telekinesis, among others. Likewise, it is often involved in research regarding alterations in the Gestalt.
The department is currently conducting important research such as the understanding of ectoplasmic matter, the amplification of astral projections and the study of egregorian agreements..
Psychotronics Research and Development Section (Ground Floor)
Demonstration of the Ecokinetic Bouncing Apparatus.
Research and development of psionic paratechnology, mainly focused on espionage and tracking technology.
Currently maintains a strong research on the application of bilocation, remote vision and input on electronic components with integrated demonic circuits. Also, superconducting ectoplasmic matter circuits are used for psychometric applications.
P-FET Control Room (Subterranean Level 1)
Here is the machinery that controls the Parapsychology Facility Electrosionic Transmuter and Collector (P-FET). The P-FET consists of an artifact that efficiently displaces the psionic energy created by the anomalies contained in these facilities, transforming it into electrical energy that powers the place, as well as being redistributed by sending part of it to the central plant.
The electricity created by the P-FET supplies 60% of the needs of the Parapsychology Facility and overall 24% of Site-313, so it is considered an important source of energy for the site.

Sections
Memetics Department (Subterranean Level 2)
Department focused on the study of memes, like the Neurosciences Department, is a partnership with all the other research departments at Site-313. The Memetics Department is constantly investigating new methods to aid research in these departments: whether it is a way to manipulate the human psyche, create natural test environments with any initial population, investigate methods of psychic enhancement, among other studies.
In addition to them, the Memetics Department is usually in charge of informational anomalies, cover-up logistics and study of the noosphere together with the Counterconceptual Department.
Counterconceptual Department (Subterranean Level 2)
Martha Duran, current head of the Counter-Conceptual Department
In some cases known as the Essophysics Department, the Counterconceptual (or Counterconcepts) Department is a department focused on the investigation of concepts and their repercussions in the fabric of reality.
Although in principle this department clashes with Site-313 itself, the truth is that it is charged with investigating the ontological relations between the human psyche and its own reality construct through the study of the name of things. Thus, this is a cutting-edge department that mixes esotericism, metaphysics and neurosciences.
The Counterconceptual Department is small, yet it stands out for, justly, its creation of ways to deal with concepts hostile to the human psyche; the understanding of the noosphere and the application of logical and metaphysical principles for the resolution of harmful informational loops in the human collective.
IT Research Section (Subterranean Level 2)
Equipped with extensive research in neurosciences and neural networks, the IT Research Section is at the forefront of artificial intelligence and is the creator of the Greta.aic IAC: a hive-mind AIC and general-purpose therapeutic assistant that adjusts to the needs of the staff and maintains absolute silence about other people's ailments. Greta.aic also serves as administrative support staff.
The IT Research Section is also responsible for managing all computer technology used at Site-313 and acts as a software research liaison with other facilities.
Panopticon-Type Monitoring Room IV (PTMR-IV) (Subterranean Level 2)
Based on a study on SCP-ES-███, PTMR-IV works on the basis of a memetic signature, near infrared resonance sensors and a Rhizomatic Search Algorithm. These elements are combined based on memetic theory, capturing information that is then organized and displayed on different screens showing weighted data on: facility status, personnel status, current events, etc.
A fluctuation of these percentages is reflected in the activation of a multiple sampling algorithm on the fluctuating information emitter, analyzing in depth new variables that help to determine in a precise way and without the use of audiovisual format what is happening. This method has been proven to be almost infallible, with an error rate of 3%, which can be reduced with in situ recording systems.
Although this technology is highly effective, it does not work without a direct connection to SCP-ES-███, so the memetic signatures carry with them memeplexes to inhibit the noise caused by interfering with their data broadcast and prevent the sender from knowing the fact that he is being monitored.

Birth Period
View of the façade of Site-313 created by the Gestalt Suppression Antennas.
Founded on March 16, 1952, Site-313 was initially a coalition among several Foundation sites for the investigation of cognitive and psychiatric anomalies, choosing such a location because of:
- An extensive research field regarding the psychosocial process of the South American region, classified as highly fluctuating.
- SCP-ES-███ (see PTMR-IV), an informational anomaly that stores information on people and events within a 10km radius.
- Its difficult access by terrestrial means.
Thus, in the first instance, the research departments of general psychology, cognitohazards and neurosciences were founded and distributed in two facilities: the White Facility (consisting of general psychology, administration and adjoined departments) and the Black Facility (consisting of cognitohazards, neurosciences and adjunct departments).
It should be noted that, at the time of its construction, Colombia was experiencing an upsurge in the period of hostile protests between liberal and conservative supporters, known as La Violencia. Therefore, additionally, the site functioned as a regulator of such a situation, preventing major events such as the Cali Tragedy., state fascism in '57 and afterwards an assassination attempt on U.S. President John F. Kennedy.
Puritan Period
By the mid-1960s, the former and second director of the facility, Elisana Oropesa, laid the groundwork for what would later become one of the largest neurological research sites in the Latin American region. During her directorship, from 1963 to 1984, several projects focused on mass control and hostile thought paradigms were carried out in the South American region, leading to the creation of the Subversions Department in 1969, a Department that was later extended to several continents with socially active and culturally unstable countries.
Elisana Oropesa was known for being a puritanical neurologist, thus rejecting esoteric areas of study within its facilities, constantly refusing approval for the construction of facilities focused on parapsychology, essophysics, narrative analysis, among other sectors of research, giving way to constant and sometimes dependent connections to other facilities of the SCP Foundation. Likewise, Dir. Oropesa was also a great humanist, with the firm belief that, in fact, any mental illness has or will have a cure, through conventional medicine or tangential medicine.
In addition to this, Dir. Oropesa was involved in solving the following cases:
- The Great Peru-Ecuador-Colombian Information Highway: A network of infoconductor trees whose roots extended through the territories of Perú, Ecuador and Colombia and which were used by drug traffickers to communicate.
- The South American Occult Continental War of '74: Due to the Cuban Revolution, along with the nascent US-driven dictatorships, civil-military dissident groups began to emerge in countries allied to the political left. Even with a possible war looming around the corner in the superficial world, such a war never happened. However, behind the Veil, many historical figures carried flags on them, supporting what they believed to be the truth and thus beginning a 6-year hidden war involving major military and government figures in a race for ideological supremacy. It is noteworthy that during this period, the leftist governments that participated had help from the Cuban Ministry of Anomalies.
- The Guyanese Firewall Problem: An event that prevented the passage of Guyanese inhabitants out of the territory of French Guiana, if this occurred, a great part of the concepts of modernity were eliminated from their memory.
- Intensive quelling of FARC-EP in Colombian territory due to their involvement in occult operations.
Thanks to this last point, in 1972, Site-313 suffered an assault by a FARC-EP guerrilla group of at least 350 men equipped with war weapons when they located the transport routes to the site. It is noteworthy that at the time of the assault, the Gestalt camouflage technology had not yet begun to be developed, using refractory camouflage technology which fulfilled its function at long distances, but not at short distances. At that time, Site-313 had a disadvantage in terms of number of soldiers, but a substantially superior strength to the assaulting group, thanks to this, the attack was quickly withdrawn in less than a day. However, some FARC-EP members managed to gain access to the site complex, but were instantly liquidated with minor casualties.
It was not until 1973 that Site-313 received new areas of research: fine arts and neurolinguistics. With this, a group of anartists began to prowl the facilities and collate with the Subversions Department. Among these talks, the Public Artistic Exhibition Agreement was reached, an agreement where Site-313 would use methods of social control and would impart them to artists of continental caliber, the first and most important targets being singers and actors. All this was kept in place in order to decrease the fluctuating regional social change. However, this process was too arduous, and results finally began to be seen in the new millennium.
As a side note, it is known that Site-313 provided limited para-technological resources to the network of military dictatorships that ruled South America from the mid 1970's to the late 1980's, as part of an alliance for the capture of GRU-P or CMA allies, as well as other Interest Groups with political interests. Because of this, Site-313 was seen as an ally of Operation Condor, thus leading to funding by adjunct nations in retribution.
Dark Period
Once Director Oropesa died in 1984, the memeticist Eulogio Marcano took over until 2001, when he mysteriously disappeared. His leadership was marked by the beginning of a series of strange events surrounding Site-313 personnel, the focus of the events being personnel with intentions of betraying the Foundation itself by handing over information to Groups of Interest, sabotaging the facilities or research. These events were later dubbed "Libra Events".
The first mention of such events under the current name is unknown, however, these events are characterized by the ontological alteration of the affected subject, resulting in an anomaly based on the subject itself which leaves it disabled and is benign in nature. Although sometimes the consciousness of the affected person remains intact, it is often dissociated due to the anomaly or conversion of the subject (see SCP-ES-146, SCP-ES-270 above for more information). Likewise, the actual causes of such events beyond their trigger are unknown.
View of one of the roads leading to Site-313. The existence of the elephant in the photo remains unknown.
In 1990, paranarcotrafficking was at its peak, and this environment was a nest for new characters in the occult strata, so Site-313 served as a command center for an operation with allied facilities for espionage and dismantling of small cells. However, this caused the displeasure of the Norte del Valle Cartel, who had strong business dealings in communities behind the Veil and nexus in and around Colombia.
In 1995, as an ultimatum, the Cartel took possession of the resource trucks arriving at Site-313, concealing and disabling any communication from the truck operators far from their arrival at the Site. This went on for at least a week, during which time the site consumed almost all of its resources and it had still not been possible to locate the trucks despite the extensive deployment of force. Every new truck that was deployed to Site-313 was hijacked, and resource helicopters were shot down.
After the tenth day, a member of the Cartel contacted Site-313 through one of the truck drivers, whereupon members of the General Psychology Department intervened to reach an agreement to desist in the dismantling that the Foundation had been carrying out in the area, or else not only would the resources not be returned, but they would proceed to attack large populations. Site-313 agreed to such terms, averting its sights from the anomalous narcotics business for a time and at the same time experimenting with them.
However, this agreement was not honored once it became known how the 1995 incident was carried out: bilocation and camouflage technology. Once this and more was known about the technology available to the occult branches of the Colombian paranarcotrafficking, following one by one their most important Cartels, the Santander Project was carried out, initiating a occult war against these Cartels for good. This event took place from 1999-2002, when most of this drug trafficking stratum was wiped out.
Learning Period
At the beginning of the new decade, the remaining departments were completed and the esoteric research field was welcomed at Site-313, thus opening the psionics, memetics and counterconceptual departments. With this, psychologist Alexandra Garmendia also took over from 2001 to the present.
Garmendia learned from her predecessors and has turned her eyes away from the political world and the war, focusing on what really matters: the research, containment and health of her staff. Thus, Site-313 has become an ethically healthy place compared to its predecessor periods, greatly advancing research and taking stress off the staff.
As of this writing, Site-313 maintains tracking operations of some local ecoterrorist groups such as the Serpent's Hand and the Children of the Vine. Studies on the oneirosphere have been planned.
