MEMORANDUM FOR: William M. Woessner
Principal Deputy Assistant for European and
Canadian Affairs
Department of State
SUBJECT: Establishment of FBIS Bureau in the Federal
Republic of Germany
REFERENCE: 15 Jan 86 Memo, Same Subject
1. This memorandum requests the Department of State's concurrence
in the establishment of an FBIS bureau in the Federal Republic of Germany
during FY-87 and the Department's assistance in obtaining the host
government's approval for FBIS operations.
2. As was indicated in the referenced memorandum, an FBIS team
conducted a survey of potential sites in the Federal Republic in
February. Exploratory discussions were held at that time with Embassy
Bonn and Consulate Munich officials to gather information on issues
relevant to the possible establishment of an FBIS bureau. On the -
basis of these extensive discussions and the observation of a number
of potential sites, the survey team concluded that the area of Munich-
Augsburg offers the best location for an FBIS Bureau. Minister Dobbins
was briefed on the survey's findings on 14 February.
3. In 1985, Ford Aerospace, in a study prepared for FBIS,
recommended the Federal Republic as the optimum reception site for
gathering open-source intelligence information from a number of existing
and planned satellites. A copy of the executive summary of the study is
provided for your perusal. Our projections for staffing and space cited
in the referenced memorandum were based on this study and on an internal
study of the terrestrial broadcast stations monitorable from the proposed
site.
4. FBIS will be pursuing parallel discussions with the Department
of Defense regarding the possibility of operating on U.S. Military
facilities in the Federal Republic, as it does in several other foreign
locations. In the case of the Federal Republic, Bundespost restrictions
on satellite antenna operations make it desirable for FBIS to locate its
antennas on U.S. military land.

SUBJECT: Establishment of FBIS Bureau in the Federal Republic of Germany
5. FBIS will seek to have the bureau affiliated with Embassy Bonn
or Consulate Munich, granting the bureau chief attache status, as is
now the case at a number of FBIS posts. The impact of an FBIS bureau on
Embassy/Consulate support facilities would be minimal since FBIS plans
to provide the bureau with its own administrative staff. Post support
would be required, however, in areas such as vouchering and contracting.
In such instances, costs would be reimbursed through a standard FAAS
arrangement.
6. With your concurrence, and following host government approval
in principle, FBIS will proceed to make direct contact with Embassy Bonn
and Consulate Munich and arrange visits to the posts by FBIS officers
and engineers to initiate detailed planning discussions. FBIS plans
to explore a number of alternatives for acquiring and locating the
facilities for the bureau's staff and equipment. Options include
purchase or lease of land or office space, leasing antenna facilities
from the Bundespost, and locating the FBIS antenna field and bureau
at separate locations. In the last instance, microwave communications
would be employed to remotely control antennas and feed signals from
the reception site, which might be on a military base, to the processing
site in a nearby city. It is our understanding, based on the site survey
team's discussions, that Embassy Bonn and Consulate Munich are willing to
assist FBIS in identifying and acquiring such facilities and in obtaining
all necessary FRG approvals.
7. FBIS is willing to provide the host government with as much
FBIS-monitored material as they would like, from this bureau or
elsewhere. Normally, host governments are informed that FBIS is a
component of the Central Intelligence Agency but that it deals entirely
with public media. The relationship is a matter of public record, and
the FRG is undoubtedly aware of it.
8. Upon approval of bureau establishment, request that Department
notify Embassy Bonn and authorize them to provide assistance as required.
