  • PRESS RELEASE Amended June 6, 2005
    2005 BRAC Commission Schedule Base Closure and Realignment Commission PRESS RELEASE Amended June 6, 2005 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Robert McCreary Deputy Director of Communications 703 – 699 – 2964 [email protected] 26 MAY 2005 BRAC Commissioners Release Schedule for Installation Visits Arlington, Virginia, May 26, 2005—Today the 2005 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission is releasing the schedule for the Commissioners’ visits to major bases recommended for closure or realignment by the Department of Defense (DoD). Chairman Principi stated, “The 2005 BRAC Commission is not going to serve as a rubber stamp; we will look at the DoD recommendations carefully and closely to see if they complied with, or substantially deviated from, the selection criteria and force structure against which all bases are to be measured.” “We have been given the mandate to provide an independent, fair, and equitable assessment and evaluation of both the DoD BRAC proposal and the data and methodology used to develop that proposal,” the Chairman remarked. “My Commissioners and I have pledged to provide that assessment openly and transparently.” The Commissioners plan to visit military installations which have been recommended by DoD to lose either 300 civilian jobs, or a total of 400 civilian and military jobs. The fact-finding visits will involve briefings by base representatives as well as tours of facilities and will be conducted for the primary purpose of determining the military value of the installations. Although military value will be the primary basis for the decision to close or realign a military facility, the Commission was created to also take into account the economic, environmental, and other effects the closure or realignment of a base would have on the surrounding community.

  • The Texas Grid and U.S. National Security
    NATIONAL CENTER FOR POLICY ANALYSIS The Texas Grid and U.S. National Security Backgrounder No. 182 by David Grantham May 2016 America’s electric power grid is arguably the most vulnerable part of our nation’s infrastructure. Divided among three geographical regions, the U.S. network remains dangerously exposed to a host of potentially devastating natural disasters and foreign attacks. Yet, Texas finds itself in a unique position to act. Utilities in the Lone Star State operate their own, self-contained grid. And, because it is confined within state borders, the Texas government has authority to preempt catastrophe by “hardening” the system. The state government has the responsibility for public safety, the financial resources and access to the latest technologies necessary to accomplish this mission. The Threat Cannot Be Overstated. In 2010, the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) released a translated copy of an Iranian military doctrine publication.

BRAC 2005 was the fifth round of base closures and realignments undertaken by DOD since 1988, and it was the biggest, most complex BRAC round ever. GAO-12-709R Military Base Realignments and Closures To implement this round, DOD executed hundreds of BRAC actions involving over 800 defense locations and the planned relocation of over 125,000 personnel. By law, BRAC 2005 recommendations were to be implemented by September 15, 2011.1 At the outset of BRAC 2005, the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD) indicated that DOD viewed BRAC 2005 as a unique opportunity to reshape its installations and realign its forces to meet defense needs for the next 20 years.
