 REPORT BY THE U. S.



 General Accounting Office






 Information On Three Investigations By

 The Department Of Justice Into Navy

 Shipbuilding Claims


 Newport News Shipbuilding and Dry Dock
 Company, Lockheed Shipbuilding and Con-
 struction Company, and the Electric Boat
 Division of General Dynamics submitted
 contract price adjustment claims to the
 Navy between 1968 and 1976 to increase
 contract costs for various ships by about
 $1.8 billion. Navy officials alleged that parts
 of the claims contained false or fraudulent
 statements and referred these allegations
 to Justice. Justice investigated the claims
 with assistarce from the Navy_ between
 1975 and 1983. In all three cases, Justice
 declined to prosecute for various reasons
 such as adequate legal defenses and insuf-
ficient evidence. Because of new allega-
tions, in July 1984 Justice reopened its
Electric Boat investigation, which is cur-
rently ongoing.
