NATIONAL DEFENSE STOCKPILE: Comments on DOD's 1992 Report to the Congress and Proposed Legislation

Abstract

We are pleased to be here today to discuss our views on (1) the assumptions and analyses contained in the Department of Defense's(DOD) 1992 Report to the Congress on National Defense Stockpile Requirements, (2) DOD's recommended disposal plans and associated legislative proposals and (3) the U.S. ferroalloy upgrading program. We will also discuss agency actions on prior GAO recommendations, and the participation of federal agencies and other experts in the stockpile determination process. DOD's most recent report on stockpile requirements was released about 3 months ago, on February 27, 1992. Accordingly, our comments are preliminary in nature. We will provide a more complete assessment in our report which we will issued later this year.
