Abstract:

As a result of a 1995 Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission decision, Kelly Air Force Base, Texas, is to be realigned and the San Antonio Air Logistics Center, including the Air Force maintenance depot, is to be closed by 2001. Additionally, McClellan Air Force Base, California, and the Sacramento Air Logistics Center, including the Air Force maintenance depot, is to be closed by July 2001. To mitigate the impact of the closures on the local communities and center employees, in 1995 the administration announced its decision to maintain certain employment levels at these locations. Privatization-in-place was one initiative for retaining these employment goals.
