The Role of the Federal Government in the Civilian Conversion of Military Installations: A Case Study of Gentile Air Force Station by PDF Summary

Book Description: In 1988, the Department of Defense (DOD) began a massive series of military base closures. Communities affected by these closures must contend with regulations of numerous agencies which impact the closure process. Since 1961, DOD's Office of Economic Adjustment (OEA) has assisted communities in their attempts to recover from effects of base closures. In the 1980s and 1990s, the government's level of involvement increased; it added the Air Force Base Conversion Agency (AFBCA) and the Base Transition Office (BTO) to assist communities' recovery efforts. Through a review of historical data, a case study of the conversion activities at Gentile Air Force Station, OH, and a cross-site analysis of 13 other closing or closed bases, the authors studied the functions and activities of the three main conversion agencies. Recommendations for the Federal Government include timely and relevant training for community leaders on the conversion process, and the development of a single agency based in Washington, with a staff at each closing base that is empowered to carry out the functions of the OEA, AFBCA, and BTO.
