Economic Analysis for Demilitarization and Disposal.

Abstract

This study provides cost-benefit information obtained from analysis of demilitarization (demil) of DoD conventional ammunition items. Of primary concern were: costs-benefits of demil of items at the inventory locations; costs-benefits of demil of items at the least-cost locations; amount and value of storage space released by disposal of items; and annual processing and storage inspection costs avoided. This information was used by ARRCOM and forwarded to DARCOM to justify additional demil funds since a scarcity of demil funds was projected for FY78.
