Colonel Ralph C. Robinson
Commanding Officer
Tooele Army Depot
Tooele, Utah  64074

Dear Colonel Robinson:

     During June through August of 1971 our office  requested, observed,
and participated in, a physical inventory of selected  ammunition items
in storage at  the Tooele Army Depot. The purpose was  to determine
whether Army and Air Force records accurately  reflected actual quan-
tities and condition of assets in storage.  The inventory was  part of a
Defense-wide review of war readiness materiel stored  in the continental
United States.  Initially the inventory was to include only Air  Force
ammunition.  For various reasons, however, it did include  certain Army
assets.

     On August 20, 1971, the results of the inventory, based on  the
analysis to date, were presented in an exit conference with Tooele
representatives.  Since that time the results have changed somewhat.
The purposes of this letter are to  (1) provide you with an update of our
observations and (2) request that you advise us of  the status of the
corre,%tive actions which were being taken by the depot. The  results of
the inventory and our observations follow.

LFFECTS OF PHYSICAL INVENTORY ON
THE RPCORDS OF THE TOOELE ARMY
DEPOT

     A total of 455 locations applicable to 42 rederal stock numbers
(FSNs) was inventoried, resulting in the following corrective  ictions.

     --Acijustments were made to the location quantity balances for
       24 (57 percent) of the FSNs inventoried.

     --Location reco-ds were corrected for b3 (24 percent) of the  .41
       locations en record at the start of the inventory.  An additional
       72 adjustments were nade when assets were found in locations not
       on record.  (Value of these asse*s was computed to be $195,800.)
