FOREWORD

This Manual is reissued under the authority of DoD Directive 4165.66, “Revitalizing Base

Closure Communities and Community Assistancefl Febmary 12,1996. It contains guidance as

to the Department’s implementation of “Revitalizing Base Closure Communities and

Community Assistance” (32 CFR Parts 174,175, and 176) by providing greater detail about the

issues addressed in them. DoD 41 65.66-M, “Base Reuse Implementation Manual,” July 1995, is

hereby canceled.

This Manual applies to the Office of the Secretary of Defense (OSD), the Military Departments,

the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the Defense Agenaes, and the DoD Field Activities

(hereafter referred to collectively as the “DoD Components”). The guidance provided is

effective immediately and is mandatory for use by all the DoD Components.

This Manual was developed and updated by a working group made up of representatives

from both OSD and the Military Departments. The goal of the working group was to create a

document that could be used Department-wide without additional “Component-specific”

instructions. As a result, the Heads of the DoD Components may only issue supplementary

instructions, when necessary, to provide for unique requirements within their organizations

that are not addressed in this Manual. All supplementary instructions must be approved by

the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Industrial Affairs and Installations).

Please send your comments and suggestions on ways we can improve this Manual in later

printings to: Base Closure and Community Reinvestment Office

400 Army Navy Drive, Suite 200

Arlington, VA 22202

E-mail address: base_reuse@acq. osd.rnil

The DoD Components may obtain copies of this Manual through their own publication

channels. Approved for public release; distribution unlimited. Authorized registered users

may obtain copies of this Publication from the Defense Technical Information Center, 8725 John

J. Kingman Road, Suite 0944, Fort Belvoir, VA 22060-6218, http: //www.dtic.dla.mfl. Other

Federal Agencies and the public may obtain copies from the U.S. Department of Commerce,

National Technical Information Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, VA 22161, (703)

487-4600, http:/ /www.ntis.gov.

It is my sincere hope that this Manual will make the base reuse process better by providing the

Service implementors with common guidance that is flexible enough for site-specific solutions.

Closure. All missions of the installation have ceased or have been relocated. All personnel positions (military,

civilian and contractor) have either been eliminated or relocated, except for personnel required for caretaking,

conducting any ongoing environmental cleanup, and disposal of the base, or personnel remaining in authorized

enclaves.

Cmrrrmmities in the Vicirrity of the Installation. The communities that constitute the political jurisdictions (other than

the State in which the installation is located) that comprise the redevelopment authority for the installation. If no

redevelopment authority is formed at the local level, and the State is serving in that capacity, the communities in the

vicinity of the installation are deemed to be those political jurisdiction(s) (other than the State) in which the

installation is located.

Consolidated Pk?n. The plan prepared in accordance with the requirements of 24 CFR Part 91.

Consultafiom Explaining and discussing an issue, considering objections, modifications, and alternatives; but without

a requirement to reach agreement.

Date o~approvaL The date on which the authority of Congress to disapprove Defense Base Closure and Realignment

Commission recommendations for closures or realignments of installations expires under Title XXIX of

Pub. L. 101-510 (104 Stat. 1808), as amended.

Excess property. Any property under the control of a Military Deparhnent that the Secretary concerned determines is

not required for the needs of the Department of Defense.

Installation. A base, camp, post, station, yard, center, homeport facility for any ship, or other activity under the

jurisdiction of the Department of Defense, including any leased facility. Such term does not include any facility used

primarily for civil works, rivers and harbors projects, flood control, or other projects not under the primary

jurisdiction or control of the Department of Defense.

L.ocn[ Redeueloprrrerrt Authorify (MA). Any authority or instrumentality established by State or local government and

recognized by the Secretary of Defense, through the Office of Economic Adjustment, as the entity responsible for

developing the redevelopment plan with respect to the installation or for directing implementation of the plan.

Realignment. Any action that both reduces and relocates functions and DoD civilian personnel positions, but does not

include a reduction in force resulting from workioad adjustments, reduced personnel or funding levels, skill

imbalances, or other similar cause. A realignment may terminate the DoD requirement for the land and facilities on

part of an installation. That part of the installation shall be treated as “closed” for purposes of this part.

Representative(s) o~the homeless. A State or local government agency or private nonprofit organization, including a

homeless assistance planning board, which provides or proposes to provide services to the homeless.

Ruml. An area outside a Metropolitan Statistical Area.

Similar Use. A use that is comparable to or essentially the same as the use under the original lease.

Substmrtially equivalent. Property that is functionally suitable for the proposed use. For example, if the representative

of the homeless had an approved application for a building which would accommodate 100 homeless persons in an

emergency shelter, the replacement facility would also have to accommodate 100 at a comparable cost for

renovation,

Substnnfidly equirralerrf,furzdirrg. Sufficient funding to acquire a substitute facility. For example, if the approved

homeless assistance submission was for an emergency shelter that would accommodate 100 homeless, substantially

equivalent funding would mean the funds necessary to acquire a comparable facility at another location.

Surph/s property. Any excess property not required for the needs and the discharge of the responsibilities of all

Federal agencies. Authority to make this determination, after screening with all Federal agencies, rests with the

Military Departments.
