Iraqi C-130 Base. Baghdad, Iraq. Sustainment Assessment

Abstract

We are providing this report for your information and use. It addresses the current status of the Iraqi C-130 Base, Baghdad, Iraq, and the likelihood of whether the facility will remain operational. The assessment was made to provide you and other interested parties with real-time information to enable appropriate action to be taken, if warranted. Although this report identifies sustainment problems, we did not make any recommendations for corrective action because the Multi-National Security Transition Command-Iraq is currently in the process of producing a master plan for the Iraqi C-130 Base. The master plan will address sustainment issues that we identified. The Multi-National Security Transition Command-Iraq is also researching the use of a simple packaged water chlorination process for production of potable water. This would be a replacement for the current reverse osmosis systems that require daily maintenance. Additionally, the Multi-National Security Transition Command-Iraq is also working specifically on a contract designed for the operation and maintenance of Iraq-wide Ministry of Defense generators.
