03-10   Department of
           the Army


O&M, Army


2/18/2005


7/18/2001


$900,000.00


31 U.S.C.
§ 1517


Entered into Capital lease using wrong
appropriation. Used Army O&M funds.
Should have used Other Procurement,
Army, funds. At that time there were
insufficient Other Procurement, Army
funds continuously available from the
time of the initial capital lease until the
time of the correction. This resulted
from a violation of the Purpose Statute,
31 USC 1301.


Corrective action was taken
when the lease was restructured
into an operating lease so that
the use of O&M, Army funds was
appropriate.


                                                                                                                                                               Corrective action was taken to
