SUBJECT: REQUEST FOR TOP SECRET PROCESSING AND STORAGE


Classified By: CDA D.R.BURNETT, REASON 1.4 (C)

1. (C) Embassy Wellington requests authorization to process
and store classified materials at the top secret level.

2. (C) Wellington CIWG met 15 September 2005 and agreed that
it was in Post's best interest to be able to increase our
processing and storage levels. Embassy Wellington currently
has TS cleared American watchstanders who would ensure
control of the processing area on a twenty four hour, seven
days a week basis. Embassy Wellington meets all the physical
security requirements for the processing and storage at the
top secret level. Post expects to re-activate the MSG
Detachment March 2006.
