Granite Peak Installation

The Granite Peak Installation (GPI) — also known as Granite Peak Range — was a U.S. biological weapons testing facility located on of Dugway Proving Ground in Utah. The GPI was a sub-installation of Dugway but had its own facilities, including utilities. Established in 1943, GPI was deactivated with the end of World War II.
==History==
In October 1943, because of the limitations of a site at Horn Island off the coast of Mississippi a biological weapons testing site was established at Dugway Proving Ground in Utah.〔Pike, John E. (webmaster). "(Granite Peak Range )", ''Globalsecurity.org'', April 26, 2005, accessed January 13, 2009.〕〔 Known as the Granite Peak Installation, the site was activated as the U.S. military's principal bio-weapons testing site beginning in June 1944.〔〔〔Whitby, Simon M. ''Biological Warfare Against Crops'', ((Google Books )), Macmillan, 2002, pp. 73-74, (ISBN 0333920856).〕 Construction on the massive facilities required by GPI began on July 10, 1944 and continued for seven months, finally ending on January 30, 1945.〔 The total cost for the development and construction of GPI was around $1.3 million.〔Regis, Ed. ''The Biology of Doom'', p. 95.〕 When WWII ended in 1945 GPI was deactivated and closed.〔
