[[Page E1527]]

5,005 square foot building that will accommodate Associate 92d & 141st 
Air Refueling Wings under Total Force Integration (TFI). This new 
facility will provide more space, closer proximity, and indoor 
maintenance for those who service and repair the refueling vehicle 
fleet in support of the flying mission. Right now, the Fuels Management 
Flight of 100 personnel rely heavily on 15 maintenance people who 
service and repair the refueling vehicle fleet in support of the flying 
mission. These people work in undersized, substandard, environmentally 
deficient facilities separated from each other.
