    -------
    SUMMARY
    -------

    ¶1.   Nearly 400 WFP-contracted trucks from Syria with
    approximately 16,000 metric tons (MT) of bulk wheat grain
    have arrived at the Kirkuk silo complex since 12 June.  WFP
    expects to be able soon to offload 6,000 MT per day at the
    Kirkuk silo.  Food distributions are proceeding apace in
    Kirkuk and Mosul.  Local purchase of the wheat harvest has
    not yet begun in earnest because silos in the Kirkuk area
    are apparently still not ready to receive wheat.  Food
    distributions are continuing without major problems in As
    Sulaymaniyah governorate, with May's wheat flour
    distribution approximately 65 percent complete.  WFP wants
    to incorporate vulnerability assessments into its monthly
    monitoring activities in the three northern governorates.
    As Sulaymaniyah farmers continue to harvest a bumper wheat
    crop, but are pessimistic about other marketing
    possibilities in Iran.  Populations in the former Ansar al-
    Islam areas are pleased that radical elements have departed,
    although residents are concerned about housing, employment,
    and food distributions.  End Summary.

    ----------------------------------
    Bulk Wheat Grain Arrives in Kirkuk
    ----------------------------------

    ¶2.   DART Team North food officer traveled to Kirkuk on 14
    June and found the World Food Program (WFP) receiving a
    portion of 135,000 MT of bulk wheat grain.  The 135,000 MT
    of wheat grain will be stored at the main Kirkuk silo
    complex, which is being guarded by Coalition forces.
    Approximately 20,000 MT has been offloaded and WFP-
    contracted trucks from Syria are waiting outside the silo
    for their turn to empty their load.  An estimated 390
    trucks, with approximately 16,000 MT of wheat grain have
    arrived since 12 June.  The silo has been unable to receive
    this quantity of wheat grain in a timely manner.  On 12
    June, WFP was able to offload 3,250 MT during the hours the
    silo was operating.

    --------------------------------------------- -------
    Vacuvators to Increase the Speed of Grain Offloading
    --------------------------------------------- -------

    ¶3.   WFP recently airlifted four new vacuvators from Belgium
    and one additional vacuvator is expected soon for the Kirkuk
    silo.  The five vacuvators are expected to triple the
    offload capacity of the silo, but so far have not performed
    to this level.  The vacuvators' performance is improving
    daily as the technician who accompanied the four vacuvators
    works to increase their off-take.  WFP has not paid for the
    vacuvators, and payment is contingent on them operating as
    per the performance specifications.  WFP expects that by
    getting the vacuvators to work more efficiently, and by
    leasing other equipment, it can increase offload capacity to
    6,000 MT per day.  WFP has provided USD 5,000 for repairs to
    the silo and for a new generator.

    --------------------------------------------- ---------
    Public Distribution System Status for Kirkuk and Mosul
    --------------------------------------------- ---------

    ¶4.   The Public Distribution System (PDS) is continuing
    apace, with Kirkuk having completed distributions for
    approximately 40 percent of wheat flour and other ration
    commodities except rice, which is just starting to be
    distributed.  Mosul has distributed approximately 50 percent
    of wheat flour, 25 percent of other ration commodities, and
    is also just beginning the rice distributions.  In a move to
    begin shifting responsibility for the PDS back to the
    Ministry of Trade (MOT), WFP in Kirkuk has signed over
    responsibility of all ration commodities to the MOT, and is
    now implementing only primary transport, offloading, and
    monitoring.  WFP and the MOT sign the waybills for receipt
    at the silo or warehouse, and MOT is then responsible for
    coordinating food agents' transport and distributions.
    However, WFP remains ultimately accountable to its donors
    for ensuring that the commodities are distributed properly.
    Hence, WFP maintains its monitoring function.

    --------------------------------------------- --
    Central versus Governorate MOT Responsibilities
    --------------------------------------------- --

    ¶5.   WFP is getting along with the Kirkuk MOT but not so
    well with the Mosul MOT, which is in direct contrast from
    the situation several weeks ago.  WFP has still not been
    able to sign over commodity responsibilities for wheat flour
    and bulk wheat to the MOT in Mosul, due to the lack of clear
    and timely instructions received from the Central MOT in
    Baghdad.  The MOT's departmental capacities at the
    governorate level vary widely as to how much responsibility
    the governorates are prepared to take on without continually
    expecting Baghdad to provide guidance.  The MOT in Mosul
    seems to be especially dependent on Baghdad for guidance.
    WFP does expect the official handover to be complete in
    Mosul and Tikrit within the coming days, even though WFP
    international staff is prevented from going to Tikrit due to
    continued security restrictions.  DART Team North food
    officer reports, however, that the WFP national staff in
    Tikrit is doing a very efficient job.

    ---------------------------
    Local Purchase Preparations
    ---------------------------

    ¶6.   DART Team North food officer recently visited the
    Riyadh silo, located approximately 40 kilometers southwest
    of Kirkuk, near the town of Al Hawijah.  There is no actual
    silo, but rather 30 open bins with a large holding capacity
    of more than 100,000 MT.  Two bins are filled with last
    year's wheat harvest.  Coalition forces are guarding the
    silo compound.  Farmers have been asking silo staff when
    they will be able to deliver their harvested wheat.
    However, the weighing scales, laboratory testing equipment,
    and office furniture were stolen and have not yet been
    replaced.  The main constraint to starting the delivery of
    wheat to the silo is the missing scales.  Staff at the silo
    complex was unaware when this equipment will be replaced,
    whether the USD 50,000 from the Office of the Coalition
    Provisional Authority (OCPA) for the use by the MOT to make
    preparations for the wheat harvest had been received or if
    the MOT funds can provide for replacement of the scales,
    laboratory equipment, and office furniture. (Note: DART Team
    North reports that it is not aware of the USD 50,000
    payments being received by any MOT office in the northern
    governorates.  End Note.)  When farmers may be able to
    deliver their harvest to this reception site is still
    uncertain.  DART Team North Food Officer expects to assess
    whether other silo complexes in At Tamim governorate may be
    better prepared to receive the local wheat harvest.

    ¶7.   The local guard at the silo complex was concerned that
    other silo employees had received the USD 20 payment and the
    subsequent USD 30 emergency payments, but he had received
    nothing.  As guards were apparently not listed on the former
    regime's payrolls, they did not receive payments.  DART Team
    North reports it has heard this concern time and again from
    security guards.  (Comment:  This non-payment issue is
    ironic because the silo guards seem to be the only warehouse
    and silo employees who continually report for a full
    workday.  End Comment.)

    --------------------------------------------- ----
    As Sulaymaniyah PDS Distributions and Assessments
    --------------------------------------------- ----

    ¶8.   DART Team North Food Officer traveled to As
    Sulaymaniyah governorate on 10-11 June, and visited
    locations including Chwarta, Penjwin, Halabja and the former
    Ansar al-Islam areas of Biara and Tewalla.  The head of
    WFP's sub-office in As Sulaymaniyah reported that PDS
    distributions were proceeding efficiently, and that May's
    wheat flour distributions were approximately 65 percent
    complete.  Other food ration commodities are delayed pending
    secondary transport contracted by the local authorities and
    paid for by the food agents.  Once the wheat flour
    distribution is nearly complete, transport availability will
    increase, and the additional food ration commodities can be
    distributed within a short period.

    ¶9.   The head of WFP's sub-office in As Sulaymaniyah stated
    that WFP staff in the three northern governorates wants to
    begin to incorporate detailed vulnerability assessments into
    its monthly monitoring.  The assessments will determine
    where needs may continue after the PDS ends, and if in fact
    there are still critical needs to be met.  DART Team North
    supports WFP's interest in conducting vulnerability
    assessments.  These assessments provide an excellent
    opportunity for WFP to begin looking at future needs while
    still having a large experienced team in place already
    monitoring needs on a regular basis.
    -----------------------
    Chwarta/Penjwin/Halabja
    -----------------------

    ¶10.  According to the DART Team North food officer, farmers
    and other beneficiaries in the eastern As Sulaymaniyah
    governorate towns of Chwarta, Penjwin, and Halabjah reported
    that they had received only wheat flour from WFP since
    March.  Some but not all farmers were aware of the $105 per
    MT wheat offer for this year's harvest.  A significant
    number of farmers stated that they would not sell their
    wheat for this price, given the high costs for harvesting
    the grain and transporting it (up to 200 kilometers) for
    sale in Kirkuk, the nearest sanctioned reception site.  A
    number of farmers reported that any wheat available above
    the level necessary to feed their families would become
    fodder for their livestock.  Penjwin is located on the
    Iranian border, but local farmers reported that there is
    very little cross-border trading for selling their wheat
    inside Iran.

    ---------------------------------
    Former Ansar Areas: Biara/Tewella
    ---------------------------------

    ¶11.  Ansar al-Islam was a radical Islamic group that
    controlled a number of villages on the Iranian border,
    including the towns of Biara and Tewella.  These areas were
    isolated from the rest of Kurdistan, so visitors and traders
    were not able to easily access the area, but WFP commodities
    were regularly permitted entry.  DART Team North food
    officer reports that there appears to be very little
    commercial or other business activity in these areas.
    Locals stated that trade with Iran is nearly non-existent,
    although many homes in the border town of Tewella did have
    satellite dishes.  According to residents, Ansar al-Islam
    had Turkish, Bangladeshi, Afghani, Syrian, and Palestinian
    elements, including Kurds, until they were recently forcibly
    evicted.  Being isolated from the remainder of Iraqi
    Kurdistan, the Islamic authorities had reportedly banned
    alcohol, music, and satellite TV, except apparently for the
    Al Jazeera channel.  Even smoking and participating in
    sports were forbidden.  Most of the Ansar group were said to
    have now fled into Iran, only meters from Tewella town.

    ¶12.  Tewella residents expressed concern that food
    commodities were delayed due to the need to contract "PUK"
    vehicles.  As stated above, secondary transport is
    contracted by the local authorities on behalf of the food
    agents, and therefore is often seen as PUK-friendly
    transporters.  DART Team North will assess whether the need
    to contract PUK vehicles is indeed causing transport delays.
    Approximately 200 families from Biara are currently living
    in tents outside the town due to the recent fighting that
    destroyed their homes.

    ¶13.  WFP staff also noted that even in the former Ansar al-
    Islam areas of control, WFP was always able to deliver food
    through local transporters, though WFP staff was unable to
    monitor distributions.  The PKK, the Turkish Kurd rebel
    group, has some supporters in the far northern governorate
    of As Sulaymaniyah, and the area remains a dangerous place.
    The WFP staff is still unable to access deep into these
    areas for monitoring purposes, although deliveries do
    continue.
