Army Housing: Overcharges for On-Base Lodging Have Not Been Repaid

Abstract

The Army has not repaid overcharges that have been accumulated from inflated transient lodging charges. Moreover, we estimate that accumulated overcharges increased to $157 million Army-wide before the Army stopped diverting transient lodging funds to nonappropriated morale, welfare, and recreation activities in October 1991. At that time, the Army transferred $34 million to a separate account for transient lodging operations. On the basis of the accumulated overcharges that we reported in 1990, the Congress reduced the Army's operations and maintenance budget requests, which fund transient lodging operations, for fiscal years 1991 and 1992 by a total of $65 million.
