Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Military Depots: Addressing Deteriorating Facilities and Equipment - Director Summary

Diana Maurer discusses our May 2022 report on the condition of military depots' infrastructure. Depots employ over 80,000 civilians and maintain, overhaul, and repair DOD's weapon systems and equipment. Their facilities remain in fair to poor condition with most capital equipment past its service life. GAO recommends that the military services report in their annual budget requests the minimum investment level needed to prevent further deterioration.
