NON-EXCESS MILITARY PROPERTY.

(a) Findings.--Congress makes the following findings:
(1) The Secretary of Defense, with the support of the
chiefs of staff of the Armed Forces, is calling for the
closure of additional military installations in the United
States as a means of eliminating excess capacity in such
installations.
(2) Excess capacity in Department of Defense installations
is a valuable asset, and the utilization of such capacity
presents a potential economic benefit for the Department and
the Nation.
(3) The experiences of the Department have demonstrated
that the military departments and private businesses can
carry out activities at the same military installation
simultaneously.
(4) Section 2667 of title 10, United States Code,
authorizes the Secretaries of the military departments to
lease, upon terms that promote the national defense or are in
the public interest, real property that is--
(A) under the control of such departments;
(B) not for the time needed for public use; and
(C) not excess to the requirements of the United States.
(b) Report.--Not later than February 1, 1999, the Secretary

[[Page S7465]]

title)'' after ``Notwithstanding any other provision of
law''.

SEC. 2853. SENSE OF THE SENATE ON FURTHER ROUNDS OF BASE
CLOSURES.

(a) Findings.--The Senate finds that:
(1) While the Department of Defense has proposed further
rounds of base closures, there is no need to authorize in
1998 a new base closure commission that would not begin its
work until three years from now, in 2001.
(2) While the Department of Defense has submitted a report
to the Congress in response to section 2824 of the National
Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1998, that report--
(A) based its estimates of the costs and savings of
previous base closure rounds on data that the General
Accounting Office has described as ``inconsistent'',
``unreliable'' and ``incomplete'';
(B) failed to demonstrate that the Defense Department is
working effectively to improve its ability to track base
closure costs and savings resulting from the 1993 and 1995
base closure rounds, which are ongoing;
(C) modeled the savings to be achieved as a result of
further base closure rounds on the 1993 and 1995 rounds,
which are as yet incomplete and on which the Department's
information is faulty; and
(D) projected that base closure rounds in 2001 and 2005
would not produce substantial savings until 2008, a decade
after the Federal Government will have achieved unified
budget balance, and 5 years beyond the planning period for
the current congressional budget and Future Years Defense
Plan.
(3) Section 2824 required that the Congressional Budget
Office and the General Accounting Office review the Defense
Department's report, and--
(A) the General Accounting Office stated on May 1 that ``we
are now conducting our analysis to be able to report any
limitations that may exist in the required level of detail. .
. . [W]e are awaiting some supporting documentation from the
military services to help us finish assessing the report's
information.'';
(B) the Congressional Budget Office stated on May 1 that
its review is ongoing, and that ``it is important that CBO
take the time necessary to provide a thoughtful and accurate
evaluation of DOD's report, rather than issue a preliminary
and potentially inaccurate assessment.''.
(4) The Congressional Budget Office recommended that ``The
Congress could consider authorizing an additional round of
base closures if the Department of Defense believes that
there is a surplus of military capacity after all rounds of
BRAC have been carried out. That consideration, however,
should follow an interval during which DOD and independent
analysts examine the actual impact of the measures that have
been taken thus far.''.
(b) Sense of the Congress.--It is the sense of the Congress
that--
(1) Congress should not authorize further rounds of base
closures and realignments until all actions authorized by the
Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990 are
completed; and
(2) the Department of Defense should submit forthwith to
the Congress the report required by section 2815 of Public
Law 103-337, analyzing the effects of base closures and
realignments on the ability of the Armed Forces to
remobilize, describing the military construction projects
needed to facilitate such remobilization, and discussing the
assets, such as air space, that would be difficult to
reacquire in the event of such remobilization.
