AND READINESS DIVIION B-207712 JUNE 17,1982 The Honorable Charles E. Bennett Chairman, Subcommittee on Seapower and strategic and Critical Materials Committee on Armed Services House of Representatives 118730 Dear Mr. Chairman: Subject: Review of Selected Aspects of Strategic and Critical Materials Stockpile Management (GAO/PLRD-82-85) This report is in response to your June 10, 1981, letter which expressed your concerns regarding various management aspects of the strategic and critical materials stockpile. These concerns were --accuracy of inventory records and inventory data reported to the Congress, --adequacy of physical security, and --adequacy of storage facilities. Following discussions with your Office, we agreed to evalu- ate General Services Administration's (GSA's) Federal Property Resources Service's (FPRS's) procedures designed to ensure that stockpile commodities are properly stored and accounted for and that the status of the stockpile is reported accurately to the Congress. On the basis of our review of stockpile records at FPRS headquarters; work at the Curtis Bay, Maryland, storage depot; and an examination of the results of a recently completed GSA Inspector General audit of operations and physical security at stockpile storage sites, we believe FPRS is generally ful- filling its responsibilities for care and maintenance of stock- pile materials and for assuring that its reports on the status of the stockpile are as accurate as can be expected under current conditions.
