Subject: Range Inventory Cost Estimates
 
RANGE RULE INVENTORY COST PROJECTION

In response to a written question from Sen. Appropriations Committee
member Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), Assistant Army Secretary Robert M. ("Mike")
Walker reported that a detailed inventory of closed range on active and
base closure bases, as called for in the proposed Range Rule, could be
as much as $3 million. A similar inventory for formerly used defense
sites could cost $5 million. Walker responded: "In order to get an early
start on the inventory, funding would need to be in place by the summer
of 1998."

>From the numbers, I assume that the cost estimates cover the compilation
of existing information from sites, not new surveys or site inspections.
