     The Honorable William J. Hughes

     Dear Mr. Hughes:

          Subject: SOD's Management of Civilian Personnel Ceiling
                    (FPCD-81-66)

          On September 29, 1980, you asked us to review how the
     Department of Defense (DOD) used its authority to exceed its
     civilian personnel ceilings and how personnel ceilings af-
     fected mobilization. On February 6, 1981, we briefed you
     and your staff on the results of our work. At that meeting,
     we agreed to revise the assignment's objectives to determine:

          1. How the increase over DOD's fiscal year 1980 author-
              ized civilian personnel end-strength was used and
              whether the Naval Air Engineering Center (NAEC)
              requested an increase in its fiscal year 1980 end-
              strength allocation.

          2. If NAEC received disproportionate reductions for
              its civilian personnel during fiscal years 1977-80,
              compared to other Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR)
              activities.

          At a June 17, 1981, meeting, we informed you that DOD
     exceeded its authorized personnel end-strength only in fiscal
     year 1980 and that DOD's use of this authority was consistent
     with the intent of the DOD Authorization Act. We also in-
     formed you that NAEC did not request an increase in its fis-
     cal year 1980 personnel end-strength allocation. Moreover,
     although NAEC received disproportionate reductions for its
     civilian personnel during fiscal years 1977-80, NAVAIR of-
     ficials said they allocated end-strengths to each of their

                                                           (961144)
