Background The LIEMPTY Project is. designed to collect operational information on the LIMERICK installation and personnel, as.well as selected targets of opportunity through the use of stationary and mobile photographie coverage, In addition, the project provides means for investigating leads provided by the above noted assets and supporting other Station operations through renting of safehouses, providing and servicing PO box drops, conducting countersurveil- lances, and other related tasks. 2. Operations LIEMPTY provides the majority. of photos used by the Station in its CE exploitation eee inst the LIMERICK target. In this phase of the operation tire LIEMPTY baschouses and phototruck produced approximately 122 rolls of oper- ational photos for the Station's CE program, Selective examples of the operational use of these photos “and the support given to other Station operations by LIEMPTY assets are as follows: a. LIEMPLY photos proved that one Paul SKUP (aka Saul SKUP) did visit the LIMERICK installation, This case was of interest to Headquarters recently. ; b, A LIEMPTY photo. was utilized in identifying oné Adolphe Pierre POFFET as a visitor to the LIMMERICK establishment on 17 August 1963.

| de et oe > ec, LIEMPTY aw provided’ photé evidence of the Wict that Cuauhtemoc CARDENAS , son of former Mexican President Lazaro CARDENAS del Rio, visited the LIMERICK installation for a period of four and one- Half hours on 28 December 1962:- ad. In addition, LIEMPTY photos were instrumental in identifying all arriving LIMERICK personnel. jneluding known and suspected intelligence officers, plus documenting, the daily routine of all personnel of the LIMERICK installation. ; 1 e. LIEMPTY/LIENTRAP has provided photos of interest to KUTUBE/D of the LIMERICK installation and is presently working on similar coverage of the DMLET installation. f, .In the area of pretext investigations, Oliver G. SCANTLING performed ; with excellence in a number of these. Among the more {mportant and revealing were. those conducted on Juan NAVES Ruiz and AEMIQUELET- 2 and 3 (this later in conjunction with Headquarters interest in the case). g. in support to other Station operations, Oliver G. SCANTLING ‘has - peen acting as alternate contact of LIEMIT-1 in 4 sensitive LAURICLE operation. The LIEMPTY cutouts (SCANTLING and GERENDE) also service a number of P.O. Box drops used in Station operations including those related to GYROSE activities and the LINLUCK operation. © h, SCANTLING provided the cover correspondence for an SW mail channel with EMLITEA-1. while the latter was on assignment to Santo Domingo. 3. ‘Security During the reporting period there have been no known adverse security incidents affecting the LIEMPTY operation. Meetings petween the two cutouts under the project (SCANTLING and GERENDE ) and the KUBARK Case officer, Jeremy L. Niarcos, are made in a clandestine manner and meeting places and times are changed frequently. Meetings between the cutouts and action agents are. made in a similar manner. , In order to provide maximum compartmentation between the various base- houses, Oliver G. SCANTLING was inserted as the cutout to the LIMITED baserouse | -and.its basehnouse keepers (LIEMPTY-6 and LIEMPTY--8) in October 1962. He replaced Cc Raymond H. GERENDE in this task. GERENDE continues as cutout for the LIENTRAP LICALLA, and LILYRIC phase of LIEMPTY. In addition, this move makes for better rapport between the cutout and LIEMPTY-6, (since LIEMPTY-6 and SCANTLING are close in age) and gives GERENDE time to provide more prompt processing of the raw photo take. (In regard to this development, it should be noted that GERENDE can now regularly provide finished product within 24 hours - sooner upon request). yy Equipment - No new equipment was purchased during the reporting period nor is any such purchase presently contemplated. Such repair to photo equipment as is necessary can be done locally without security implications. 5, Personnel No personnel changes were experienced during the reporting period other than that noted in paragraph 3 above. ~ a, rl .
