	DoD Base Realignment And Closure Preliminary Consideration List - 2005-Archives Page One
		Under the BRAC statute, actions to close or realign a base must be initiated within two years of the date the president transmits the BRAC Commission's recommendations report to Congress and must be completed within six years of that same date.
		But the timing of BRAC for 2005 is also important because it provides a platform, an opportunity, for us to assess the sites and select the sites for forces that will return to the United States as a result of the broader global- force posture realignment that the secretary and the department have undertaken.
		There are several criteria for selecting a base for BRAC action, but one top consideration is the installation’s current and future mission capabilities and the impact on operational readiness of the total force, including the impact on joint warfighting, training and readiness.

	Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC)
		The Defense Base Closure and Realignment of 1990 (1990 Base Closure Act), Public Law 101-510 established the process by which Department of Defense (DOD) installations would be closed and/or realigned.
		Base closings are an integral part of this plan.
		Implementing the BRAC actions in the first four rounds would result in $23 billion in one-time implementation costs, offset by savings of $36.5 billion, for a total net savings of $13.5 billion between 1990 and 2001 when the implementation of the first four rounds was supposed to be concluded.

	Base Closure Planning
		The command and control functions for base closure should be identified, and, if needed, a command and control unit or base closure force should be formed under the direction of the installation commander.
		Because of the ongoing missions of tenant units, some soldiers and civilian employees identified for base closure duties may have to transfer to the base closure force after their responsibilities in their parent units are handed off to others.
		The goal of base closure is to move all of the affected units, soldiers, families, and equipment to other installations while properly accounting for everything and everyone.

		The Tooele Army Depot (TEAD) Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) experience is an example of a very effective approach to compliance with the requirements and intent of the BRAC decisions to realign or close TEAD and other installations supervised by TEAD.
		Besides completing the realignment of TEAD as directed by BRAC 93, TEAD managed the closing of the Fort Wingate Depot Activity in Gallup, New Mexico, the closing and transfer of the Navajo Depot Activity in Flagstaff, Arizona, and the realignment of the Pueblo, Colorado and Umatilla, Oregon Depot Activities.
		In spite of the short time line and the overwhelming size of the task, the realignment was accomplished with very smooth reductions in personnel achieved through caring and effective employee assistance programs.
