handle is hein.gao/gaobabfii0001 and id is 1 raw text is: REPORT BY THE US. General Accounting Office Ravenna Army Ammunition Plant: Analysis Of Army's Justification To Retain Depot Storage Area At the request of the Chairman of the House Committee on Armed Services and of Congressman Dennis E. Eckart and a request by Senator John Glenn, GAO reviewed the Army's justification and need for retaining the depot storage area at the Ravenna Army Ammunition Plant, an inactive ammunition production and storage site near Ravenna, Ohio. The Governor of Ohio had proposed using the plant for a privately owned industrial park if the Army did not need the property. The Army's justification does not support retaining about 4,800 of the 6,919 acres in the depot storage area. The 4,800,acres contain 294 earth-covered igloos for storing explosives and ammunition. The need for 1,000 acres within the depot storage area, which are in addition to the 4,800 acres, is questionable. This area is now used by the Ohio National Guard for training, and according to Army officials, an ammunition production line would be built in the area during mobilization. Army officials agreed that the justification did not support retaining the entire depot storage area. But they said the Army must do a study which would consider the Army's overall storage needs before they could conclude whether any areas at Ravenna were excess.
