Recommendation: Realign Fort Belvoir, VA, by relocating Army Prime Power School training
to Fort Leonard Wood, MO.
Justification: The United States Army Prime Power School courses taught at Fort Belvoir, VA,
are Engineer Branch courses. The United States Army Engineer ('enter at Fort Leonard Wood,
MO, serves as the Service engineer proponent. The common-core phase of engineer courses are
already taught at Fort Leonard Wood, MO. This realignment consolidates engineer courses at
Fort Leonard Wood, MO. Consolidate like schools while preserving service unique culture. The
United States Army Engineer School trains other services under Inter-service Training Review
Organization (ITRO).
Payback: The total estimated one-time cost to the Department of Defense to implement this
recommendation is S6.OM. The net of all costs and savings to the Department during the
implementation period is a cost of 53.9M. Annual recurring savings to the Department after
implementation is S0.5M with a payback expected in 16 years. The net present value of the costs
and Department savings over 20 years is a savings of S0.8M.
Economic Impact: Assuming no economic recovery, this recommendation could result in a
maximum potential reduction of 170 jobs (102 direct jobs and 68 indirect jobs) over 2006-2011
in the Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV, Metropolitan Division, which is less
than 0.1 percent of economic area employment. The aggregate economic impact of all
recommended actions on this economic region of influence was considered.
Community Infrastructure: Review of community attributes indicates no issues regarding the
ability of the infrastructure of the communities to support missions, forces, and personnel. There
are no known community infrastructure impediments to implementation of all recommendations
affecting the installations in this recommendation.
Environmental Impacts: This recommendation has no impact on air quality: cultural,
archeological, tribal resources: dredging; land use constraints or sensitive resources areas; marine
mammals, resources or sanctuaries; noise; threatened and endangered species or critical habitat;
waste management; water resources; or wetlands. This recommendation will require spending
$0.1 M for environmental compliance activities. This cost was included in the payback
calculations. This recommendation does not otherwise impact the costs of environmental
restoration, waste management, and environmental compliance activities. The aggregate
environmental impact of all recommended BRAC actions affecting the bases in this
recommendation has been reviewed. There are no known environmental impediments to
implementation of this recommendation.F&T - 4 Section 4: Recommendations Education and I raining Joint Cross-SCRicc Group
