MEMORANDUM FOR Record
SUBJECT: Supply and Storage Joint Cross Service Group (S&S JCSG) COBRA
Review Meeting
1. On 23 March 2005, The Army Basing Study Group (TABS) Modeling Team met with
representatives of the S&S JCSG. The purpose of the meeting was to clarify Candidate
Recommendation (CR) COBRA data, prepare for installation level integration, and
identify any issues that may require the DASA (lA)'s attention to resolve.
2. During the meeting, three S&S JCSG CRs were discussed. In general, each CR
required updates to their footnotes or additional footnotes. There was discussion on the
certification of the process used to determine manpower reductions; these reductions
need to be footnoted lAW a defined methodology. We neither agreed nor disagreed
with their methodology, just asked that it be documented. The following CRs were
discussed:
a. S&S-0004. This CR has been replaced with S&S-0048 (which is pending
replacement by S&S-0051). Mr. Williams recommended we still discuss the comments
on S&S-0004 since they probably still applied to the new CRs that are pending
submission. The CR has procurement cost avoidances in the out years (non-MILCON)
which are not explained. We suggested that these procurement costs are not savings
and should not be included and that they consult with legal to ensure the avoidance
could be taken under BRAC (analogous to MILCON cost avoidance, which is not
allowed after FY 2006 by OSD policy3). The remainder of the discussion centered on
footnoting of the CR (see attached memorandums).
b. S&S-0043. The CR has installations being realigned that do not appear to move
anything out of the installation and therefore would not meet the BRAC definition for
realignment. We recommended they review or change their description and footnotes
to explain what the intent of the CR and what is being moved to where (i.e. mission,
reduction of inventory through attrition, etc.). The remainder of the discussion centered
on footnoting of the CR (see attached memorandums).
