NSIAD-95-133S Military Bases B-261174 United States General Accounting Office Supplement to a Report to the Congress GAO and the Chairman, Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission May 1995 MILITARY BASES Letters and Requests Received on Proposed Closures and Realignments GAO/NSIAD-95-133S United States General Accounting Office GAO Washington, D.C. 20548 Comptroller General of the United States B-261174 May 9, 1995 To the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives The Honorable Alan J. Dixon Chairman, Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission This is a supplement to our report entitled Military Bases: Analysis of DOD’s 1995 Process and Recommendations for Closure and Realignment (GAO/NSIAD-95-133, Apr. 14, 1995). Many interested parties, including Members of Congress, have sent us correspondence on base closures. Several of these letters were from multiple requesters and included attachments of data, analyses, and/or evaluations. In some instances, the letters and material provided useful leads. In other cases, the material added support to issues we were actively pursuing. We could not follow up on many of the issues or points because of the limited time available to us. However, we believe that the letters and materials may be helpful to the Commission as it considers the proposed closures and realignments. Consequently, we are providing all of the letters and materials to the Commission for consideration. Appendix I contains copies of the letters and some of the materials we received. We are sending copies of this supplement to the Chairmen, Senate Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on Defense; Senate Committee on Armed Services; House Committee on Appropriations, Subcommittee on National Security; House Committee on National Security; individual Members of Congress; the Secretaries of Defense, the Army, the Navy, and the Air Force; and the Directors of the Defense Logistics Agency and the Defense Investigative Service. We will make copies available to others on request. Page 1 GAO/NSIAD-95-133S Military Bases B-261174 This supplement was prepared under the direction of David R.
