Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Congress enacted base realignment and closure (BRAC) legislation that instituted four BRAC rounds between 1988 and 1995 to help the Department of Defense (DOD) close and realign excess military bases. To fund investment costs of the BRAC actions, Congress established two base closure accounts: the first to fund BRAC actions resulting from the 1988 round and the second, referred to as the 1990 account, to fund ERAC actions resulting from the 1991,1993, and 1995 rounds. Although DOD's authority to obligate 1988 base closure account funds expired on September 30, 1995, funds in the second account are available for use for an indefinite period. Congress, recognizing the complexities of realigning and closing bases and of providing for environmental restoration and mitigation, allows DOD the flexibility to allocate funds by military service, budget function, and installation. Also, with congressional approval, DOD can redistribute unobligated balances as appropriate to avoid delays in implementing BRAC decisions. Senate Report 105-213, dated June11, 1998, on the fiscal year 1999 military construction appropriation bill requested the continuation of our annual review of DOD's base closure accounts and its budget request for base closure activities. This report discusses opportunities to offset the fiscal year 2000 budget request and raises questions about some ERAC funding practices that could make it difficult for Congress to discern DOD's actual funding requirements and priorities. Our scope and methodology are described in appendix I.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through base realignment and closure rounds in 1988, 1991, 1993, and 1995, the Department of Defense expected to significantly reduce its domestic infrastructure and provide needed dollars for high-priority programs such as modernization. With the conclusion of the 6-year implementation period of the last round in fiscal year 2001, the department has closed or realigned hundreds of bases, has generated savings from these actions, and is in the process of transferring unneeded base property to other users. At the same time, the communities surrounding the former defense bases continue the lengthy process of recovery from the economic impact of the closure process. Our last comprehensive report on the implementation of base closure decisions was issued in December 1998. In that report, we concluded that the closure process was generating substantial savings (although the savings estimates were imprecise), most former base property had not yet been transferred to other users, and most communities surrounding closed bases were faring well economically in relation to key national economic indicators. In a July 2001 report and August 2001 testimony, we updated our closure implementation data and reaffirmed the primary results of our prior work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The annual review covers the Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) accounts and makes recommendations on the validity of the Department of Defense's (DOD) proposed budget request for base closure activities. This report focuses on the accuracy of DOD'S BRAC budget estimates and on opportunities to reduce the fiscal year 1997 BRAC budget. Changing national security needs and DOD'S recognition that its base structure was larger than required led to a decision to close numerous bases around the country. Consequently, the Congress enacted legislation that instituted base closure rounds in 1988, 1991, 1993, and 1995. The BRAC legislation also established closure accounts to finance the closures of bases identified in the base closure process. DOD annually sends the Congress detailed budget submissions to justify its BRAC funding requests. The budget submissions contain six subaccounts: military construction, family housing, environmental, operations and maintenance (O & M), military permanent change in station, and other. The budget is used by the Congress to make separate appropriations for each BRAC round. BRAC appropriations need not be obligated in the year of appropriation and, except for the environmental subaccount prior to fiscal year 1996, they need not be used in the subaccount for which they were requested. DOD is requesting $2.5 billion for the BRAC accounts in fiscal year 1997.
