BRAC seeks panel to impose cost cuts
Monterey County Herald
September 10, 2005
The federal base closure commission's full
report to President Bush seeks to give some real
teeth to a new board that would oversee the
Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey and its
Air Force counterpart in Ohio.
After choosing last month not to close NPS or
merge it with the Air Force campus, the Base
Realignment and Closure Commission
recommended in its report to the White House
on Friday that various cost-saving measures be
imposed on the graduate schools by a new
governing body authorized to act, not just
recommend.
Exactly what will become of that idea, however,
now moves into the political realm. While Bush
must either approve the commission's base
closure plan in whole or reject it in whole, it isn't
clear how he will respond to the closure
commission's unprecedented decision to make
policy recommendations as well as base-closure
decisions. This commission's attempt to go
beyond its traditional charter is sparking court
challenges around the country.BRAC Commission Early Bird
