How many bases and installations will be closed?
A11. It’s too early to say, but there are no specific numbers or “targets.” Using specific selection criteria that emphasize military value, DoD must complete a comprehensive review before it can determine which installations should be realigned or closed. In 2005, an independent commission will review the Secretary of Defense’s recommendations, hold public hearings, visit various sites, and ultimately send its recommendations to the President.
