Department of Defense Base Structure Report (A Summary of DoD's Real Property Inventory). Fiscal Year 2002 Baseline
Abstract
America's security depends on defense installations and facilities being available and capable to fully support the nation's military requirements. This fact is perhaps more apparent today as America fights terrorists who would plan and carry out attacks on our facilities and our people. To ensure that our nation has the assets it needs, and to properly manage those assets, the DoD maintains a comprehensive inventory of installations and facilities and their attributes. The Department's physical plant is huge by any standard, consisting of more than 600,000 individual structures, at more than 6,000 locations, on more than 30 million acres. Sites range from small, unoccupied sites supporting a single navigational aid on less than one-half acre, to the Navy's complex of installations at Norfolk, VA, with over 71,000 employees, to the Army's White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico that contains over 3.6 million acres. This report summarizes the current structure of installations and provides basic information on the facilities at each location. Defense analysts, as well as other government agencies, private organizations, and individuals who have business to conduct with the DoD have reiterated a continuing need for this report.
