Gereshk Cold and Dry Storage Facility: Quality of Construction Appears To Be Good, but the Facility Has Not Been Used to Date

Abstract

This report discusses the results of SIGARs inspection of the Gereshk Cold and Dry Storage Facility in Helmand province, Afghanistana $2.89 million facility funded by the Department of Defenses Task Force for Business and Stability Operations (TFBSO). SIGAR was unable to make a site visit to this facility because of security concerns, but was able to review an extensive collection of contract and management documentation, including photos and site visit reports. Based on SIGARs review of this information, the Gereshk Cold and Dry Storage Facility appears to be well constructed. However, the completed facility has never been used.
