What is HAARP?
HAARP stands for The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program. The goal of this program is to further advance our knowledge of the physical and electrical properties of the Earth's ionosphere which can affect our military and civilian communication and navigation systems. The HAARP program operates a world-class ionospheric research facility located in Gakona, Alaska.

Care to prove your claims? What is HAARP hiding?
No YouTube videos with creepy music playing in the background please.

You asked for proof that HAARP was not operating at the time of the earthquake. That is asking to prove a negative. Of course, we could ask, but if the answer was negative it would prove they were lying so what's the point? (Sounds a little like the Salem witch trials).
There is plenty of "sharing" if you bother to look for real information rather than just regurgitating the same old conspiracy crap based on ignorance, misunderstanding, and speculation. The "public" doesn't hear about it because it is advanced science which would mean little to the layman. In that way it's a lot like the science being carried out on the International Space Station; a lot of very good science that is not very sexy. The public isn't interested in Investigations of the effects of ionospheric total electron content and scintillation on transionospheric radio wave propagation but scientists who study the ionosphere sure as hell are.
Here's a bibliography of 246 published papers available at the Geophysical Institute of the University of Alaska. The list is a few years old so there are undoubtedly a lot more now.

Here are some others (it isn't hard to find a lot more, if you bother to look). There is a whole hell of a lot of research done at HAARP by scientists from different countries and universities all over the world and the public really couldn't care less because it has nothing to do with weather control, mind control, earthquakes, or death rays.

[This article is from the Earthpulse Press.]
With the above examples in mind imagine the nonlinear effects of 1 billion watts of effective radiated power being directed at the ionosphere by the HAARP transmitter. This is the first phase capability of the project. The second phase will increase the effective radiated power levels even further -- to 4.7 billion watts! In our book we point out that energy in certain frequencies when reaching the outermost portions of the ionosphere can be amplified up to 1000 times by natural processes. This phenomena has been recorded by scientists at UCLA who have observed the results of these power amplifications at a fraction of the power level which HAARP will transfer to this region. This is extremely important in considering what may occur with this level of energy. A serious environmental disaster may well be the result.....
As described in the accompanying report, the HF Active Auroral Ionospheric Research Program (HAARP) is especially attractive in that it will insure that research in an emerging, revolutionary, technology area will be focused towards identifying and exploiting techniques to greatly enhance C3 capabilities. The heart of the program will be the development of a unique high frequency (HF) ionospheric heating capability to conduct the pioneering experiments required under the program.
The image below is a time-frequency spectrogram, which shows the frequency content of signals recorded by the HAARP Induction Magnetometer. This instrument, provided by the University of Tokyo, measures temporal variations in the geomagnetic field in the ULF (ultra-low frequency) range of 0-5 Hz.

SDI was created by Ronald Reagan in 1983. The idea was that a system of ground and space based systems could be used to create a "shield" against ballistic nuclear missiles. Some of those systems involved directed energy weapons. HAARP is not a directed energy weapon. Its beam is not a laser or particle beam, it is a radio transmission. The radio energy of the HAARP heater can only be directed upward. It can, through phasing, be "wiggled" a bit (within 30º of vertical). The power density of the widespread beam is not high enough to hurt a fly. (BTW, what does "large amounts of RF frequencies mean"? Can you provide a source for that quote? What are large amounts of frequencies?
Due, in great part, to the dissolution of the Soviet union in the late 1980's, Clinton changed the SDI program from a global defense system to a theater defense system (1993) based on the use of interceptor missiles. The HAARP facility was not built until after "Star Wars" was was gone.
The DoD (in particular, the NAVY and Air Force) have always had an interest in studying the ionosphere. As specified in the excutive summary;

C3 capabilities. C3 is command, control, and communications. It is not weaponry. It is the ability communicate with and command various military assets (ships, subs, planes, troops). Notice too, that the summary clearly states "pioneering experiments". It is a research facility designed to study the ionosphere. The DoD is not the only one working there. Look at that list of hundreds of papers written by independent researchers at HAARP. How do you think all that work could be done (and published) if HAARP was a secret weapon? It just doesn't make any sense.
I am unfamiliar with the use of radio being successfully used in mind control during MKULTRA. Can you provide some sources?
You are right though, HAARP can induce a 2Hz signal in the ionosphere. The HF heater stimulates a region of the ionosphere into producing ELF radiation. As I pointed out earlier the radio waves which are produced are very weak, much weaker than naturally produced signals. What is it that the ionosphere amplifies? The HF signal or the ELF signal which is produced?

Are there any health hazards associated with electromagnetic fields produced by HAARP?
The health and safety of the public (and of the scientific researchers who will be present at the site) has been a primary focus in the design of the HAARP HF transmitter and antenna array. There are no locations on-site or off-site where the E-M fields exceed safety standards for RFR exposure as defined by IEEE/ANSI C95.1-1992 and NCRP Report No 86. In fact, the E-M fields measured at the closest public access to the site are lower than those existing in many urban environments.
Is there any safety concern with the ELF signals generated using HAARP?
No. These signals are more than eleven million times weaker (smaller) than the Earth's background field and about one million times weaker (smaller) than the level where researchers have reported biological effects in the literature. Signals generated through ionospheric interaction are so weak, in fact, that sophisticated instruments must be used to observe them. Nevertheless, they are still valuable for scientific purposes and for communication applications.

No.
Nothing I wrote validates your post. Nothing I wrote indicates that HAARP is a weapon.
How about telling me what you know about "radio frequencies"? Can you give me a rough idea of how "it" can control weather and affect fault lines?
Yes, I am quite aware of the power levels of HAARP. As I mentioned earlier, that 3.6 MW signal is carried by a beam which starts out covering an area of over three acres and gets wider as it gets higher. The power density of the beam is not high at the source and gets much less by the time reaches the ionosphere.
I am aware of experiments which show how birds use the Earth's magnetic field for navigation. It's reasonable to believe that other animals do as well. But if HAARP causes changes to the Earth's magnetic field at all they are very, very tiny and localized changes. I find it curious that you show me the HAARP website, I am quite familiar with it. Since you seem to accept what is written on the site, here are some excerpts:

HAARP was not created as a weapon. It was designed and built as a research facility. Some of the research being conducted has possible applications in OTH radar which may have been connected with the EWR systems worked on at Crane.

Not to worry, you're not the only one... With the reading I've done, I've not found it either. The "explanations" of those making the accusations are less than convincing as well...
