Why does the Department not support an “Early-Out or Exclusion List” for BRAC?
Altering the existing BRAC process to require an exclusion list would seriously undermine the Department’s ability to reconfigure its current infrastructure into one in which operational capacity maximizes both warfighting capability and efficiency. Developing an “Early-Out List” or excluding an arbitrary number of installations from consideration for closure or realignment destroys the Department’s ability to conduct a comprehensive rationalization of its infrastructure to its force structure, thereby undermining its efforts to continue transformation of the force to meet the security challenges of the 21st century. The 2005 BRAC round is not merely an installation capacity reduction exercise. The Department will emphasize an analysis of joint functions and joint use of facilities more so than in previous rounds to enhance the transformation effort. Excluding installations up front would preclude options that only become apparent as a result of conducting a comprehensive analysis cove
