Base Realignment and Closure
DELAWARE VISITORS' DAY EVENT
Exhibitor Prospectus
Background
In 2005, the Department of Defense (DOD) announced its recommendation to move a variety of operations and military units to Aberdeen Proving Ground (APG) and at the same time move certain APG units to installations elsewhere in the United States. These unit moves were part of the BRAC process. The units relocating to APG are elements of the U.S. Army Research Laboratory currently located in Virginia, Ohio, and New Mexico; units of the U.S. Army Communications-Electronics Command currently located in New Jersey, Virginia, Alabama and Kentucky; Headquarters, U.S. Army Test and Evaluation Command and Army Evaluation Center, from Virginia; some Civilian Personnel Operations from Illinois; and various chemical and biological defense research units from Washington, D.C., Virginia, Indiana, and Texas. The units relocating from APG include the U.S. Army Ordnance Center and School to Fort Lee, VA., and the U.S. Army Environmental Center to Fort Sam Houston, Texas.
Base Realignment and Closure (BRAC) is the process the DOD uses to reorganize its installation infrastructure to support its forces. This round of BRAC concluded in 2005, and the military is now in the process of closing bases, or in the case of APG growing operations through consolidation of operations from other bases. The current DOD plan is to have APG operational with the new units by 2011.
