As stated in the preceeding Requests for Project Renewal, — i although SCANTLING's LIEMPTY Project objectives can never be com- a pletely fulfilled, it is the Station's opinion that SCANTLING has made important and valuable contributions to LIEMPTY Project objectives me specifically and to other Station activities in general. SCANTLING's 7 | - production, measured against monetary expenditures, case officer time. _ and other intengible factors, unquestionably justifies his continuation © ot as an integral part of Project LIEMPTY. . B, Raymond H. GERENDE Segment (discussed in | relati ion to project Obj ject ives): ey 1. “To collect operational information pertaining to LIMERICK. ” personnel and physical facilities through usé of photographic base houses.’ a _ Three photographic bases, LIMITED, LILYRIC and LICALLA, contribute i to this objective, To avoid repetition, the Station is omitting the usual So description of the functions of these three bases and how they contribute Le to the above objective. This was described in detail in the 1960 Request for’ = 4 Project Renewal, (HMMA-15979) 2, “To collect operational information and identify operational leads pertaining to Station targets of opportunity." The LIENTRAP operation, handled by GERENDE, is still the major contributor to this objective. Among LIENTRAP's regular and extensive photographic assignments, was .the photo stakeout of prominent Mexican Communists (some of whom have ae never been photographed previously by KUBARK) and Communist Party — | . Headquarters. During this assignment, LIENTRAP was able to cover “the recent move of PCM Headquarters (the first information Station had ae of the move) and to continue photo surveillance at the new site, _ ee 3.

14-00000 a 4, The quality and quantity of operational information produced ‘by the photographic bases and other activities under GERENDE s control and supervision is considered worthwhile and in some cases unique. The . . Station concludes, therefore, -that this Segment of the LIEMPTY- Project _ Should be cont inued, Cc. Relationship to Related Misston Directive Objectives: . . As stated in previous project renewals, it can readily | be noted that. ’ Project LIEMPTY has provided support to many Station operations and in this manner has been a contributing factor to the furtherance of the Related . Mission Directive. _The project has not produced any positive intelligence nor has it been intended that it should do so. The project's sole purpose * is to provide a mechanism for the development of operational informat ion — in support of other stati ion operations, Il, CHANGES There have been ao changes in the LIEMPTY Proj ject dur ing the past project year aif fecting either objectives or personnel.
