Authors: Frank Camm; Jeffrey A. Drezner; Beth E. Lachman; Susan A. Resetar; RAND NATIONAL DEFENSE RESEARCH INST SANTA MONICA CA

The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.

From 1990 to 1995, as the total defense budget fell from $315 to 291 billion a year, DoD environmental spending rose to $5.2 billion a year. At the same time, increasingly tight environmental regulations constrained training and vessel mobility in DoD, potentially limiting military readiness. These trends brought environmental management into high focus. Was DoD making appropriate trade-offs among (1) its military mission, (2) its environmental obligations, and (3) constraints ...
