Book Description

During our ongoing audit of Construction Projects for Training Facilities, we found that the Navy proposed constructing a consolidated Naval and Marine Corps Reserve Center at March Air Force Base, California. Congress appropriated $5.3 million for this FY 1990 construction project to consolidate the San Bernardino and Pomona Reserve centers. The project is planned for March Air Force Base, since the original proposed site, Norton Air Force Base, San Bernardino, California, was scheduled for closure. The objective of the audit was to evaluate the data on which the Navy based construction requirements and to determine if alternatives to new construction were fully considered. Also, we evaluated the adequacy of internal controls as they related to the construction of training facilities.
