    SENSITIVE

    SUVA FOR RSO

    E.O. 12958: N/A
    TAGS: ASEC
    SUBJECT: COUNTRY CLEARANCE FOR BICE ESCORTED REMOVAL TO
    AUCKLAND - A072998965

    REF: ICE DRO 021210Z FEB 06

    ¶1. (SBU) Embassy Wellington welcomes ICE escorts Ruben Rocka
    and Manuel Paramo to Auckland, New Zealand from Feb 12-13, 2006.
    The purpose of the trip is to escort deportee Lauren Kiredeor
    Flint: A072998965.

    ¶2. (U) Embassy will arrange any in-briefing officials feel is
    necessary.

    ¶3. (SBU) Embassy point of contact is RSO William B.Leverett.
    Contact details are as follows:

    Office:  644-462-6013
    Fax:     644-462-6070
    Cell:    027-451-2537
    Home:    644-472-9230
    E-mail:  leverettw@state.gov

    ¶4. (SBU) All TDY visitors to Embassy Wellington are required
    to report to the Regional Security Office for a security
    briefing if they have not completed an approved overseas
    personal security training course.

    ¶5. (U) Visitors should use local taxi service, which is
    generally safe, reliable and frequent.  Taxi fare from the
    airport to downtown Wellington hotels is approximately
    NZD30.00.  A commercial shuttle service is also offered at
    the airport. Taxi fare from the airport to downtown Auckland
    hotels is approximately NZD55-NZD65.  A commercial shuttle
    service is also offered at the Auckland airport.

    ¶6. (U) Travelers can exchange currency at the airport upon
    arrival and ATM machines are readily available throughout New
    Zealand.  Check cashing privileges at the Embassy are
    restricted to traveler's checks only up to USD100.00.
    Personal checks will not be accepted.

    ¶7. (SBU) Biosecurity Fines:

    The Government of New Zealand instituted fines for
    non-declared biosecurity hazards on travelers entering New
    Zealand with undeclared plant, animal or food material.
    Travelers found carrying these undeclared items will be
    immediately fined NZD200.00 (USD150.00).  Biosecurity is a
    serious issue in New Zealand and fines will be administered
    immediately and without warnings.

    ¶8. (SBU) Security Information:

    a. (SBU) All U.S. citizen personnel serving under the Chief
    of Mission authority in a temporary status of 30 days or more
    must complete appropriate overseas personal security training
    prior to travel (04 State 66580).  Employees who have
    completed the Security Overseas Seminar course at the Foreign
    Service Institute (FSI) after June 1, 2000, meet this
    requirement.  All other TDY personnel must either (1)
    complete the approved seminar at FSI entitled "Serving Abroad
    for Families & Employees" (SAFE), or (2) have their agency
    certify to the Department of State's Bureau of Diplomatic
    Security that the employee has undergone equivalent security
    training.  The contact for this training is Assistant
    Director for Training at (703) 205-2617.  Country clearance
    will not be granted for any traveler with planned TDY in
    excess of 30 days if this information is not
    stated/certified. POC for additional information is RSO
    Wellington.

    b. (SBU) The U.S. Mission in New Zealand currently rates the
    threat from transnational and indigenous terrorism as low.
    There are no terrorist groups or support groups believed to
    be operating in New Zealand at this time.  In light of the
    worldwide security alert all visitors should heighten their
    security awareness and report any unusual incidents to the
    Regional Security Officer.

    c. (SBU) Anonymous telephonic threats and obscure threat mail
    have occasionally targeted U.S. diplomatic missions in New
    Zealand.  In response to U.S. policies and actions, various
    groups in New Zealand have demonstrated occasionally at the
    Embassy in Wellington and at the Consulate in Auckland.
    These demonstrations are usually small and are peacefully
    conducted.  During these demonstrations, the host country
    police and protective services normally provide adequate
    protection to the Embassy and Consulate.

    d. (SBU) New Zealand has a medium threat crime environment.
    As such, Wellington and Auckland have experienced an increase
    in violent and petty crimes, but they are usually
    non-confrontational in nature.  However, home invasion
    robberies and assaults, once very rare, are becoming more
    frequent.  Burglaries and thefts occur countrywide but
    primarily in the large cities of Auckland, Christchurch and
    Wellington, and visitors should be especially aware that
    street crime, such as scams and pickpockets is a daily
    occurrence in these cities.  Common sense precautions should
    be taken, especially at night, to avoid becoming a target of
    opportunity.
    e. (SBU) Generally, New Zealand does not play a significant
    role in the world drug situation; however, evidence indicates
    that New Zealand has been utilized as a transit point for
    shipments of Ecstasy, Heroin and Cocaine to Australia.  The
    most abused drug in New Zealand is locally produced
    methamphetamine and cannabis.  There have been increased
    amounts of lab seizures and violent crime associated with
    groups attempting to control this market.

    f. (U) All forms of public transportation are generally safe
    at all times of the day; however, at night visitors should
    use common sense precautions so as to not become a target of
    opportunity.

    g. (U) The traffic situation in Auckland can be difficult
    with a moderate amount of congestion. Wellington and
    Christchurch traffic is significantly better; however, during
    rush hour moderate delays can be expected. Visitors are
    advised that traffic drives on the left-hand side of the
    road. Visitors are advised that traffic accidents are common
    and that it is safe to pull over so that police may take an
    accident report.  However, visitors who experience hostility
    or anti-American sentiment should depart the scene
    immediately and notify the RSO.

    h. (U) Travelers intending to bring and use any USG provided
    electronic or photographic equipment must contact the RSO
    prior to introducing that equipment into the Chancery.
    Personal electronic or photographic equipment is not
    permitted in the Chancery.  Only in severely limited cases
    will a notebook or laptop be permitted to be used in the
    Chancery or connected to Wellington's LAN.

    i. (U) Precautions should also be taken to not discuss
    sensitive or classified information outside secure
    environments or over unsecured and/or cellular telephones,
    and to securely safeguard classified or sensitive information
    at the Chancery and not at hotels or residences.

    j. (U) Visitors should also be aware of the State
