Subj: REPORT OF DAG DELIBERATIONS OF 1 MARCH 2005
five to ten "high grade personnel" if FNMOC is enclaved while
the NRL detachment is relocated to Stennis Space Center needed
to be examined and that additional coordination is required to
determine whether the Technical JCSG will continue to pursue
relocation of the NRL detachment if FNMOC is enclaved. Lastly,
LtCol Murphy noted that data collection and analysis is
continuing for scenarios relocating DON-unique Post Graduate
courses to NAVSTA Newport (DON-0070A and DON-0070D). The DAG
directed the IAT to continue collecting and refining the data
for these scenarios.
6. CDR Joseph Arleth, USN, a member of the IAT E&T Team, used
enclosure (3) to compare COBRA data for scenarios that relocate
Naval Warfare Development Command (NWDC) from NAVSTA Newport,
RI. DON-0168 relocates NWDC from NAVSTA Newport to Naval
Support Activity (NSA) Norfolk, VA. At its 22 February 2005
deliberative session, the DAG directed the IAT to consult with
Commander Fleet Forces Command (CFFC) and determine whether
alternate receiving sites are available in the Hampton Roads, VA
area that could accommodate NWDC without requiring new
construction. Accordingly, the IAT developed DON-0168A that
relocates NWDC to Hampton Roads, VA. The COBRA data for DON-
0168 indicates one-time costs of $16.67 million and low steady-
state savings leading to an 18-year Payback and 20-year NPV
costs of $574,000. DON-0168A COBRA data indicates one-time
costs of $11.45 million and low steady-state savings leading to
a 17-year Payback and 20-year NPV savings of $409,000. CDR
Arleth noted that both scenarios were adjusted to reflect
movement of personnel in Fiscal Year (FY) 07-08 and that
contract termination costs (included in previous COBRA data for
DON-0168) were not applied to either scenario. See slide 3 of
enclosure (3). CDR Arleth noted that DON-0168 does not yet
capture all scenario costs since the COBRA static data must be
revised to accurately capture base operating support (BOS) and
TRICARE costs at NSA Norfolk.
7. CDR Arleth reviewed the disposition of billets and summaries
of one-time costs and savings, MILCON, recurring costs and
savings, and key elements of recurring savings for both
scenarios. See slides 4-9 of enclosure (3). He explained that
the disposition of billets does not include an additional 119
active and reserve officer, foreign officer, and contract
personnel billets (the number of contract personnel billets is
expected to increase by 47 in Fiscal Year 2006) at NWDC and

noted that many of these personnel will not relocate. CDR
Arleth noted that the $75,000 in one-time costs to provide
appropriate security included in DON-0168A should be allowed,
