Here is a list of what weather modification techniques and materials that must be reported to NOAA (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association).

 

(Excerpt)

 

Why does NOAA collect information about weather modification?

 

The Weather Modification Reporting Act of 1972, 15 U.S.C. § 330 et seq. requires that all persons who conduct weather modification activities within the United States or its territories report such activities to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce at least 10 days prior to and after undertaking the activities. Failure to report can result in fines of up to $10,000.

 

All weather modification projects must be reported via the appropriate email address (weather.modification@noaa.gov) prior to being implemented. They are compiled and then posted on the NOAA Weather Modification Website.

 

Activities subject to reporting.

 

(a)Weather modification activities are defined as “Any activity performed with the intention of producing artificial changes in the composition, behavior, or dynamics of the atmosphere” (see 15 CFR § 908.1). The following, when conducted as weather modification activities, shall be reported (see 15 CFR § 908.3):

 

  1. Seeding or dispersing of any substance into clouds or fog, to alter drop size distribution, produce ice crystals or coagulation of droplets, alter the development of hail or lightning, or influence in any way the natural development cycle of clouds or their environment;

 

  1. Using fires or heat sources to influence convective circulation or to evaporate fog;

 

  1. Modifying the solar radiation exchange of the earth or clouds, through the release of gases, dusts, liquids, or aerosols into the atmosphere;

 

  1. Modifying the characteristics of land or water surfaces by dusting or treating with powders, liquid sprays, dyes, or other materials;

 

  1. Releasing electrically charged or radioactive particles, or ions, into the atmosphere;

 

  1. Applying shock waves, sonic energy sources, or other explosive or acoustic sources to the atmosphere;

 

  1. Using aircraft propeller downwash, jet wash, or other sources of artificial wind generation;

 

  1. Using lasers or other sources of electromagnetic radiation; or

 

  1. Other activities undertaken with the intent to modify the weather or climate, including solar radiation management activities and experiments
