Recent Successes

The Army's Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) program faces significant challenges with approximately $1 billion dedicated to environmental remediation. Currently, disputes with the EPA over cleanup at two installations and complexities in meeting new cleanup standards hinder progress. To date, the Army has excessed 296,424 acres, successfully conveying 224,101 acres. Recent conveyances include 947 acres since the last report. Efforts are ongoing to minimize future property use restrictions and ensure timely property releases from RCRA permits, addressing the intricate balance between regulatory compliance and property development.
