WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A U.S. architectural firm posted drawings of the new
U.S. Embassy being built in Baghdad on its Web site, prompting complaints
from U.S. officials on Friday that their release could endanger U.S.
personnel.

The firm appeared to have removed from its Web site the preliminary
drawings of the grounds and some buildings in what will be one of the
largest and most expensive U.S. embassies in the world but they remained
widely available on blogs.

An employee of Kansas City, Missouri-based Berger Devine Yaeger Inc.
declined to comment and referred inquiries about the drawings, which
included an aerial sketch of the new embassy compound, to the State
Department.

"We, just as a matter of practice, normally don't put up plans or
designs for our diplomatic facilities, just for security reasons,"
said State Department spokesman Tom Casey.

"The fact that some of this material had been out in the public domain
is something that our security folks will have to take into consideration
... but it hasn't in any fundamental way altered our plans," he added.
