Thanks to Joseph J for posting about a report that has been published by the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) titled Investigation of Nano-Nuclear Reactions in Condensed Matter. The report is written by Pamela Mosier-Boss of SPAWAR Systems Center Pacific, Lawrence Forsely of JWK International and Patrick K. McDaniel of the University of New Mexico.
According to Wikipedia the DTRA is an agency within the United States Department of Defense and is the official Combat Support Agency for countering weapons of mass destruction (chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high explosives). DTRAs main functions are threat reduction, threat control, combat support, and technology development. The agency is headquartered in Fort Belvoir, Virginia
It is not clear to me exactly when the report was written, but the final page of the document shows a form which shows when various approvals have been given. The most recent references listed in the report are from 2012, so it appears that it has been circulating within the agency for a few years prior to this release. This paper was given approval for public release on Jun 7 2016 by the Public Affairs department of the DTRA.
The report itself is very lengthy and from a cursory reading is an analysis of the scientific evidence for nuclear reactions occurring in the metal lattice in LENR systems. The report focuses on the palladium-deuterium systems which were introduced in 1989 by Pons and Fleischmann.

News from Andrea Rossi, watch out for the bs
Your on-line account is more likely to split or join atoms than cold fusion is.
And don’t forget their super-whamodyne engine that is 500% efficient. Once started, the only way to turn it off is to blast it with dynamite.
E-cat seems out of his interest field.
Please update us with any reply he gives; now my curiosity is stoked. Maybe this will give us insight into the Upside Down.
Just more Rossi bullsh*t, eh? You poor gullible fool.
It will be next to this video:

Don’t worry no one will look. They won’t believe it if they do anyway. Just go back to tv. Sorry I interrupted.
You might try giving people here an idea of what they can expect to find if they click on a link. Otherwise it’s just spam. No wonder we don’t look.
He’s an expert in low-energy nuclear reactions. Hard to get more spot-on than that.
If this guy really had anything of substance, any of a dozen industries would be beating his door down and shoveling money at him to develop it. He'd be playing golf with Bill Gates this time next month. I'm sure the big believers of this also read the UFO blogs diligently and then head over to the 9-11 Truther websites. This stuff all has the same stink on it and is typically very easy to disprove, not that the believers will take a second to read/listen to it.
Pamela is also listed in serdp-estcp.org, which GlobalSecurity.org lists as a federal research agency.
If this is a hoax, it's a damned elaborate one.
LENR is real.
LENR will be powering the world next year.
LENR will cut heating and cooling costs across the world.
LENR will power a space mission to Mars someday.
LENR is 20% more efficient than hydropower.
I own a LENR reactor.
You don’t own a LENR reactor.
LOL
If you rub two neutrons together, you don’t get heat. You get atomic splits or fuses.
