Kia Ora Nic,

The CAA are refusing this under section 18(d) of the Official Information Act 1982 as the information can be found publicly on the Legislation NZ website: https://www.legislation.govt.nz/

The requestor has asked the CAA to create the following information:

1. all of the legislation governing our skies to include weather manipulation practices and processes involved with obtaining the correct permits / consents if any for business purposes. Examples might be

a. to increase the snowfall at Ruapehu if I was to import a ground cloud seeding machine from the USA what are the permits required toe emit silver iodide into the atmosphere and get a longer snow season
b. similar to the above, what would be the permits required to fly a plane in the Ruapehu area and send silver iodide into the clouds to get additional snow

2. the legislation governing geoengineering and other practices such as heating the ionosphere
3. the legislation / correct permits and consents required to do the following

a. using space shuttles and rockets to send up cannisters with Barium, Lithium, Trimethylamine etc & then super heat these to conduct atmospheric and ionispheric heating and testing programmes
b. contrails / chemtrails that turn into ciruss clouds
c. geoengineering practices such as injecting reflecting particles in earths orbit deflecting sunlight to produce cooling effect

There is no requirement, under the OIA, for the CAA to create this information. Accordingly the request to create this information is declined.

Subject: Official Information request - UFO/UAP/Nazi activity on, around Antartica (CAA)

Dear Civil Aviation Authority of New Zealand,

Sorry I had sent a request just minutes ago with NZDF instead of CAA, so this is amended version.

Is there any documents held by the CAA regarding:
i) The United States Navy Antarctic Developments Program aka Operation Highjump 1946–1947;
ii) Nazi German Military activity on or around Antartica between 1935 to 1980;
ii) Air New Zealand Flight TE901 crash at Mt Erebus, Antartica 28 November 1979
iii) Any UFO/UAP/USO activity on or around Antartica.

Yours faithfully,

N. S. Hudson
