Past Project Year - Station finance records indicate that Project LIEMPTY expended $21, 458.00 during Fiscal Year 1961 (1 December 1960 - 30 June 1961) and has thus far during Fiscal Year 1962 (through 30 September 1961) expended about $11,000.00. It is anticipated that about $8, 000.00 will be expended during the last two months (October and November 1961) of the project year. This will make a total expenditure during the project year of about $40,500.00, or some $12, 500. 00 under the budget estimate of $53, 000. 00.

In addition to his contributions to the above objec- tives, SCANTLING is used for miscellaneous support requirements of the Station. For example, SCANTLING handled several of Raymond H. GERENDE's (ps) operations while the latter was away from Mexico City during August nd September 1960. Also, SCANTLING has been managing the LIJERSEY surveillance team,..since the departure of Simon > CLACKETT in August: 1960, 6.2% is hoped that SCANTLING can be relieved ofthis essignment as soon as the LITEMPO project is approved.

As stated in a 2 \pesbcoang Request for Project Renewal, al though SCANTLING's LIENPTY Project objectives can never be completely fulfilled, it is the Station's opinion that SCANTLING has made important and valuable contributions to LIEMPTY Project objectives specifically and to other Station activities in general.
