Highlights

Although it is less than 2 years old, Carper housing complex has had numerous maintenance problems. The total amount of maintenance costs could not be validated because of errors in the Navy's cost accounting systems. At Sewells Point, the Navy is violating DOD regulations by letting a contractor keep valuable scrap metal. Excess personal property, including scrap metal, should be turned into a Defense Property Disposal Office.
