EXTRACT From pages 18 and 19 of House Report No. 91-1163 (June 8, 1970), 91st Congress, 2nd Session on the Military Construction Appropriations Bill, 1971, from the Committee on Appropriations: Specific Actions Relating to Individual Installations * "Funds are requested in the amount of $16,200,000 for the first phase of a Department of Defense office building at Bolling Air Force Base and the Naval Air Station, Anacostia. The Committee has denied this request. The overall cost of this project is estimated by the Department of Defense to be $133,200,000. However, information developed in the Committee's hearings indicates that there likely will be additional costs for highway construction, relocation of Air Force activities located on the proposed site, and construction of a wharf at the District of Columbia sewage treatment plant at Blue Plains. These additional costs amount to as much as $28, 000, 000. The Committee notes the recent decision to relocate personnel currently occupying the Main Navy-Munitions Building Complex to space leased by the General Services Administration for 20 years. The Committee feels that this will considerably lessen the need for the additional office space requested at Bolling/Anacostia. The Department of Defense is presently conducting a study with the objective of reducing the number of Defense personnel in the National Capital Region. The results of this study are due in September 1970. In recent years, reductions in the number of Defense military and civilian personnel worldwide have not been reflected in corresponding reductions in the Washington area. For instance, the March 6, 1970, base realignment package represented a three percent reduction in the total forces in the United Sta es. The percentage reduction in the Washington, D. C., area was six-tenths of one percent. The Committee feels that in view of the projected reductions in the size of U. S. forces from some 3, 127,000 to approximately 2,600,000, substantial Defense personnel reductions in the Washington area are in order and additional office space for the Department of Defense is not required.
