# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In 2005, NASJRB Willow Grove, PA was designated for closure under the authority of the Defense Base Closure and Realignment Act of 1990, Public Law 101-510, as amended (the Act). Pursuant to this designation, on January 23, 2006, land and facilities at this installation were declared excess to the Department of Navy (DoN) and made available to other Department of Defense (DoD) components and other Federal agencies. In 2007, that declaration was superseded by Public Law 110-28, Section 3703, of the U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans' Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, as amended, which directed the DoN to transfer NASJRB Willow Grove land to the Department of the Air Force for subsequent conveyance to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for establishment of the Horsham Joint Interagency Installation (HJII). In November 2009, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania informed the Secretary of Defense that the Commonwealth will not use NASJRB Willow Grove for the proposed HJII. On January 8, 2010, land and facilities at this installation were once again declared excess to the DoN and made available to other DoD components and other Federal agencies. The DoN has evaluated all timely Federal requests and has made a decision on property required by the Federal Government.
