EFIT ANALYSIS OF OFF-SITE VERSUS ON-SITE 
TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL OF HYDROLY-
SATE DERIVED FROM NEUTRALIZATION OF 
VX NERVE GAS AT NEWPORT CHEMICAL 
DEPOT, INDIANA. 
(a) REVIEW REQUIRED.—Not later than December 
1, 2006, the Comptroller General shall submit to Congress 
a report containing a review of the cost-benefit analysis 
prepared by the Secretary of the Army entitled ‘‘Cost-Ben-
efit Analysis of Off-Site Versus On-Site Treatment and 
Disposal of Newport Caustic Hydrolysate’’ and dated 
April 24, 2006. 
(b) CONTENT OF REVIEW.—In conducting the review 
under subsection (a), the Comptroller General shall con-
sider and assess at a minimum the following matters: 
(1) The adequacy of the rationale contained in 
the cost-benefit analysis referred to in subsection (a) 
in dismissing five of the eight technologies for hy-
drolysate treatment directed for consideration on 
page 116 of the the Report of the Committee on 
Armed Services of the House of Representatives on 
H.R. 1815 (House Report 109–89). 
(2) The rationale for the failure of the Sec-
retary of the Army to consider other technical solu-
368
tions, such as constructing a wastewater disposal 
system at the Newport Chemical Depot. 
(3) The adequacy of the cost-benefit analysis 
presented for the three technologies considered. 
(c) DELAY PENDING REPORT.—The Secretary of the 
Army shall not proceed with any action to transport or 
relocate neutralized bulk nerve agent (other than those 
small quantities necessary for laboratory evaluation of the

mitted; and

mission of the report. 
SEC. 923. SENSE OF CONGRESS REGARDING THE SAFE AND 
EXPEDITIOUS 
DISPOSAL 
OF 
CHEMICAL 
WEAPONS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress makes the following find-
ings: 
(1) The disposal of chemical weapons needs to 
be accomplished as safely and expeditiously as pos-
sible. 
(2) It is apparent, however, that any disposal 
method for chemical weapons that involves the
369
transportation of chemical munitions or processed 
chemical munitions is difficult to implement 
(b) SENSE OF CONGRESS.—In light of these findings, 
it is the sense of Congress that, when chemical munitions 
or processed chemical munitions are proposed for treat-
ment or disposal at a location remote from the location 
where the munitions are stored—
(1) the method of actually selecting the disposal 
location should be free from political interference; 
and 
(2) a process like that used for selecting and 
approving military installations for closure or re-
alignment should be considered.
