Review of Planned Realignment of Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania

Based on a study made in 1976, the Department of Defense decided to terminate active Army use of Fort Indiantown Gap, Pennsylvania, and to pass control of the installation to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The garrison at Fort Meade, Maryland, would assume the area support mission from Fort Indiantown Gap. An appraisal was made to determine the cost and savings that could be expected under the proposed realinement.
