DHS OIG: Maintenance, Rehabilitation, and Upgrading of Shore Facilities in Support of Coast Guard Missions

OIG-08-24 – Maintenance, Rehabilitation, and Upgrading of Shore Facilities in Support of United States Coast Guard Missions, February 2008 (PDF, 41 pages)

  • “The United States Coast Guard has been working diligently to maintain its more than 22,000 shore facilities. However, as each year passes, this task is becoming increasingly challenging. More than 80% of its current acquisition, construction, and improvements funding is directed to the Integrated Deepwater System Program, leaving funding available for shore facilities well below the industry and United States Coast Guard accepted standard of 2% of plant replacement value. For fiscal years 2003 through 2006, the United States Coast Guard funded shore acquisition, construction, and improvements at approximately 0.3% of plant replacement value, resulting in a funding gap of about $511 million. To compensate for the gap, the United States Coast Guard improperly used maintenance funds to upgrade or expand its shore facilities.”
