SECRET-3-or transcribed since July 1968. LIONICK-l live monitors the traffic from his baschouse. LISA PAN-1 who mans the LISASH base has been told nothing of the LIONION base and LIONION-1 was offered no explanation concerning the manner in which LISA PAN/DOG production is channeled to him. Thus a possible compromise of the LISASI! basehouse, linked directly to LIRING, would not compromise the LICTION basehouse which has no direct link with the target.3. Project LIONION was of direct assistance to the Station on two separate occasions in recent months:a. As a result of information received on a priority basis (the same day as requested) from LIONION-1, the Station was able to verify certain statements made by ESMARROW-1 concerning; the location of LIKING officials at specific times. LIONION-1 reported the times at which these officials ceme in and out of the LIRING compound and provided a description of the clothes they were weering at the time. LIGNION-l's information raised the possibility that ESMAFROW-1 might at least have been confused in his reporting of the times at which he met LIPING personnel, etc.b. In March 1969, LIONIOi-l was able to provide pictures of three WOLADY males, who, although unidentified, fitted the general description and time frame furnished by LNERGO. The latter suspected that two or three WOLADY draft dodgers might visit LIRING to arrange travel to PERUMEN. The Station was able to furnish LNERGO with pictures of the three together with a report of their arrival and departure from LIRING within three hours of its request for information. Additional information wan promptly forwarded to LNERGO es it became available from LIONION-1.4. During the past year, LIONION-l acted as a dispatcher for the LIEMBRACE surveillence team on a number of occasions. Ey utilizing his vantage point in the area of the target, he is able to redio information to the LIEDERACE team on the arrival and departure of LIRING officials thus allowing the team to remain at a distance from the target unseen by possible counter- surveillance from the target. The Station plans to use. LIONIOR-1 in this role more extensively in the coming year whenever surveillance of LERI personnel entails the team's presence rear the LIRING compound. Such utilization of LIC IC-1 should lessen the risk of exposure of the team to the PHRULE IS.SECRET

SECRET-4-5. LIONION-1, himself, continues to provide the consistently high level of productivity that has characterized his work in past years. As mentioned above his response to priority requirements continues to be cost gratifying. He is prompt in submitting both operational and administrative reports to the Station. He is ready, at a moments notice, to change personal plans when a need for his services arises. After five years without a substantial vacation, LIONICK-l plans a three week trip from 4 - 25 May to Europe (Italy, Greece, France) and the U.S.A. lie originally requested five weeks to take this trip for which he has long saved his coney, but suite willingly shortened the trip to three weeks at the Station's request and added that he would postpone the entire trip if the Station thought his services were more needed at hoze. In order to help defray the cost of making a second trip to Surope to complete his original itinerary, the Station will give LIONION-1 a gift of $250 on 1 May 1969 and will tell him that consideration will be given in 1970 to providing an equal amount, but no decision can be made on that second gift until mid-1970.E. Problems1.  LISANDAN/BAIER: As reported in HMA 36553, 19 February 1969, LISA PAN/BAKER was turned off for security reasons on 16 January 1969 at 1345 hours. All subsequent attempts to reactivate it have been unsuccessful. Headquarters was requested to review all available Station information on this to decide whether BAKER's abrupt end was the result of a compromise or whether it was somehow connected with the installation of TELEX equipment at LIRING.2.  LISALPAN/DOG: The LISANPAN/DOG/LETEAP installation is generally working well. There have been numerous occasions when due to unknown circumstances the audio reception has either been bad or non-existent. Walter W. CORNBURY and FELLEMENT visited the LISA PAN/LISASE basehouse and round no problem with the monitoring equipment there. The trouble may have resided with the central office of the ITRISK company and was probably not the result of technical counter-surveillance of LIRING. As of 3 April 1969, LISANFAR/DOG was working properly and automatically..3. There have been no significant personnel, security, morale or administrative problems since the last project renewal.F.

The Station plans to continue to exploit LIONION-1's experience, training and location to provide the photographic and technical coverage cited above. In addition, the Station will continue to make use of LIONION-1 as a dispatcher in surveillances of LIRING personnel.2. In order to check the LISALPAN/DOG take for items of possible value to other Station operations, LICALIPAN/1 will be instructed to record the DOG traffic for the three week period while LIONION-1 is on vacation. These tapes will be given to Richard C. HABOUSH for an analysis of their operational worth and technical quality. HABOUSH will transcribe them if the contents warrant.I. Costs1. For the past project year, 1 January 1968 through 30 June 1969, it is estimated that the total project cost will be about $16,250. It is approved for $16,632.2. For the renewal period of 1 July 1969 through 30 June 1970, it is requested that $11,894 be approved.

The following comments are for the information and assistance of those officers who are in the process of determining the future of the LIONION operation:a. The ANOTs have received and reviewed a number of the prints from the LIONION operation and report that it is a time-consuming and largely unproductive effort.b. The practical results of such a review, i.e., the identification of the greatest number of visitors to LIRING, can be realized best through the widest circulation of the prints among the AMOT staffers, contacts, and informants. This practice would result in wide knowledge of the existence of the operation, and in the expenditure of many man-hours which, it appears, could be more productively spent in other pursuits.c. The AMOT organization currently does not have either the qualified personnel or available space and equipment to process the film as suggested in paragraph three of reference. Until they move into new quarters, un, hopefully/mid-1968, the single AMOT photographer will be working in very tight quarters.2. It would appear from JMWAVE's experience with AMOT exploitation of the LIONION operation, that further activity in this connection at JMWAVE would be unwarranted.![signature of James N.

SECRET10 January 1968MEMORANDUM FOR: Chief, WI DivisionSUBJECT: Renewal of Project LIONION1. Approval is requested to renew Project LIONION for the period 1 January 1968 through 30 June 1969 for $26,632 including $15,374 for FY 1968 and $11,258 for FY 1969. WI Division programmed this activity for FY 1969 and funds are available. Funds requested for this renewal are slightly less than the previous year due to a reduction in support costs.2. This project provides Station Mexico City with photo-graphic and physical surveillance of the Cuban Embassy and Consulate in Mexico City. In addition, the project principal agent is able to observe and record the patterns of activity and personal associations of various Cuban personnel and visitors to the Embassy and Consulate. This effort has been of assistance in planning recruitment attempts against target personnel. The principal agent also performs functions for the Station such as dispatching and maintaining a safe-house. This project naturally does not produce positive intelligence.3. Plans for the forthcoming period include using the project basehouse and the two project agents as LP operators in the expansion of an existing technical operation targeted against the Cuban Embassy. There is also a possibility that the photo coverage of the Cuban Consulate entrance will cease shortly as this coverage has not proved particularly useful. It is not anticipated that these changes will substantially affect the cost of the project.4. It should be noted that the $4,800 operational loan made to LIONION-2 in February 1966 has been completely repaid. The security of this project is considered satisfactory.SECRETJ.Chief

# PROJECT LIONION RENEWAL REQUESTA. Objectives:1.  Project LIONION is a long-term support project designed to provide fixed photographic, technical, and physical surveillance of the PBRUMEN Embassy and Consulate in Mexico City. The specific objectives are:a. To furnish photographic coverage during the daylight hours of the main entrances to the target installations.b. To maintain in readiness a listening post to support technical operations against the targets.c. To radio dispatch physical surveillance teams against persons associated with the targets.d. To provide for a mechanism which can fulfill various miscellaneous PBRUMEN support requirements.2.  The above-cited objectives are in agreement with the overall objectives of Station Mexico City.B. Changes:In late January 1967 the operational and administrative responsibilities for Project LIONION were transferred from Howard A. TRECKLER to Cornelius L. PEUVION. No agent handling, control, or administrative problems were encountered during the past year.C. Intelligence Production:As noted in Section A above, Project LIONION is an operational support project and does not produce disseminable positive intelligence. During the past year this project did provide over 5000 individual photographs of persons and/or vehicles entering or leaving the target installations, as well as approximately 8000 feet of pulse camera film. Information on the comings and goings of target personnel and visitors to the installations, which LIONION-1 provides in daily logs, has been incorporated into Station files and on occasion made available to other stations or LNHARP agencies, i.e., LNERGO. LIONION has been particularly useful in spotting new employees whose photos are then passed to LITAMIL-7 for identification.
[104-10188-10012.pdf — page 48]
D. Effectiveness:1.  Project LIONION is considered by the Station to be highly effective and essential... In addition to providing the valuable photographic coverage cited above, LIONION-1 continues to provide interesting observations on the personalities and activities of the personnel working in the targets. LIONION-1 reporting is being incorporated into the recruitment operations targeted against LIRING-2 and LIRING-16.2.  In early July LIONION-1 obtained and furnished a new safe apartment which is being used for sensitive or lengthly meetings with LIRESORT-1 as well as LIONION-1. The safe site has been stocked with a sufficient supply of food so as to allow two persons to live there for at least three days in the event the Station ever needs a cooling-off site for an agent or defector.3.  Throughout the past project year LIONION-1 continued to function effectively as the radio dispatcher for the LIEMBRACE Surveillance Team. Much of this effort was expended in estimating the movement/habit pattern of LIRING-2, a prerequisite for his pending recruitment.E. Problems:1.  On 27 June LIONION-1 was hospitalized for emergency surgery to treat a perforated ulcer. Since LIONION-2's presence was required at the hospital during the operation and also through- out the postoperative convalescence period, photographic coverage was suspended until 10 July.2.  Other than a temporary postoperative morale slump on the part of LIONION-1, there have been no significant personnel, security, or administrative problems.F. Liaison:Not applicable to Project LIONION.G. Interagency Coordination:Not applicable to Project LIONION.H. Plans:1.  The Station plans to continue to exploit LIONION-1's experience, training, and location to provide the photographic coverage cited above. In addition, the Station plans to make more extensive use of the operational log books and personality observations provided by LIONION-1 in support of an intensive physical penetration program.
[104-10188-10012.pdf — page 49]
2. During the ensuing period, the Station plans to utilize LIONION-1 and LIONION-2 as LP operators for a portion of the LISAMPAN technical penetration operation. It is anticipated that this additional task will not be levied on LIONION-1 and LIONION-2 until after 1 January 1968.I. Costs:1. For the past project year, 1 January through 31 December 1967, it is estimated that the total project cost will be about $9,000. It is approved for $11,666.2. For the renewal period of 1 January through 31 December 1968, it is requested that $11,258 be approved. This is broken down as follows:|                                        | FY 1968 | FY 1969 | Total   || -------------------------------------- | ------- | ------- | ------- || Salaries: (Including Xmas bonus)       |         |         |         || LIONION-1                              | $ 2,208 | $ 2,576 | $ 4,784 || LIONION-2                              | 900     | 1,050   | 1,950   || Rents:                                 |         |         |         || LIONION Basehouse                      | 450     | 450     | 900     || LIONION Safehouse                      | 264     | 264     | 528     || Utilities                              | 150     | 150     | 300     || Supplies:                              |         |         |         || Film                                   | 600     | 600     | 1,200   || Paper                                  | 312     | 304     | 616     || Chemicals                              | 150     | 150     | 300     || Miscellaneous                          | 90      | 90      | 180     || Miscellaneous Operational Expenditures | 250     | 250     | 500     || **Total**                              | $ 5,374 | $ 5,884 | $11,258 |3. It should be noted that the operational loan made to LIONION-2 to enable her to qualify for *inmigrado* status in Mexico (see Cost Section of previous project renewal request) has been completely repaid. The loan, which was placed in an escrow-type account, was withdrawn in monthly increments by LIONION-1 and incorporated into his revolving fund. A detailed accounting was prepared each month by LIONION-1, a practice which will be continued during the ensuing project year.

Prior to submitting the LIONION project for renewal 1 January 1968, Headquarters requests the Mexico City station comment on the desireability of continuing the photography of persons entering and leaving the PBRUMEN Consulate. As the station is aware this film is no longer reviewed at JMWAVE and there are no present plans to resume this practice since in the past it proved unproductive and costly.
