Official description

This document is an FBI FD-1057, a form the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) uses to record investigative activity. This FBI FD-1057 documents a December 2024 site survey of a location where two FBI special agents had previously observed unidentified anomalous phenomena. The subject matter described in files FBI-UAP-D004 through FBI-UAP-D008 and depicted in the video footage FBI-UAP-PR001 through FBI-UAP-PR003 corresponds to reports originating from the same general area in the northeastern United States.

AI summary

FBI-UAP-D008 is an FD-1057 Electronic Communication (UAP Division), 2 pages, titled "Site survey of [location, redacted]" dated 12/1/2024, documenting a daytime follow-up survey by Special Agents of the same property/area associated with the other Northeastern US UAP sightings in this release. Enclosures are six sets of photos taken on FBI-issued phones around the property. At approximately 11:00am, agents departed a marked trail on the northwest side of the property and descended to the water's edge; facing south, they had unobstructed line-of-sight to the property. In the vicinity where agents had personally viewed UAP activity on a prior date (11/2024), there was nothing unusual visible on the ground or at treetop level in daylight. Continuing to the north side, also within the area of prior observed UAP activity, agents again found nothing unusual on the ground or at treetop level, aside from an old, apparently long-unused fire pit with no evidence of recent burning (ground covered in leaves). From the water's edge, agents had line-of-sight to multiple homes to the east. Assessing tree cover in the area as moderate, agents concluded it would be unrealistic for someone to fly a drone or other craft there at night without risking a crash into tree limbs -- an assessment effectively weighing against a mundane hobbyist-drone explanation for the nighttime sightings.
