The work since the independent Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission's (the Commission) recommendations became effective has been done under the authority of the Comptroller General to conduct reviews on his own initiative and has focused on the implementation of realignment and closure actions. This brief summary reviews our public observations made in 2005 about the 2005 BRAC round, specifically those related to Fort Monmouth. Also reviewed, under the Comptroller General's authority to conduct reviews on his own initiative, is the methodology of a forthcoming DOD report on the transfer of technical capabilities from Fort Monmouth to Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-1203R/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-1203R.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-1203R/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-1203R.pdf GAO-07-1203R https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-1203R Correspondence GAO-07-1203R; Military Base Realignments and Closures: Observations Related to the 2005 Round; Base closures Base realignments Cost analysis Cost effectiveness analysis Defense capabilities Defense cost control Military bases Military facilities DOD Base Realignment and Closure Program DOD Cost of Base Realignment Action Model Public Law 100-526 Public Law 101-510 Public Law 107-107
