  Dear Mr. Ertel:

       Subjecti Planned Realinement of Fort Indiantown Gap,
                 Pennsylvania (GAO/PLRD-83-1)

       In your November 18, 1981, letter, you asked us to continue
  our audit of the Army's proposed realinement of Fort Indiantown
  Gap. Specifically, you wanted to know to what extent the Army's
  current alternative--the consolidation of the Fort Indiantown
  Gap Comptroller's mission at Fort Drum, New York--had altered
  the estimated costs and savings associated with the proposed
  real inement.

       As you know, our last report to you on this subject 1/ con-
  cluded that savings were possible if the Army chose either of two
  alternatives studied. However, our report disclosed significant
  concern within the Army's Forces Command about the potential de-
  terioration of financial support to Reserve units if the Army con-
  solidated the Fort Indiantown Gap Comptroller's mission at Fort
  Meade, Maryland, as previously proposed under both alternatives.

       As a result of this concern, the Army is now considering
  revisions to the two alternatives: (1) consolidating a part of
  the Fort Indiantown Gap Comptroller's mission--the Finance and
  Accounting Office--with a similar function at Fort Drum under
  alternative I or (2) retaining the entire Comptroller function,
  as is, at Fort Indiantown Gap under alternative II. The Army
  estimates that implementing the revised alternative I would
  result in one-time costs of $1.83 million and annual savings
  of $2.68 million and that the revised alternative II would
  result in one-time savings of $1.19 million and annual savings
  of $2.08 million.

       In preparing the latest study revision, the Army did not
  include the adjustments suggested in our prior report. Also,
