I am writing to request information on a $3 million procurement of patrol boats for the AfghanNational Police (ANP) initiated by the Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan (CSCT-A)in 2010. My focus is on the operational requirements that initiated the procurement of the patrolboats for the ANP and the reasons for the cancellation nine months later. Additionally, I am alsointerested in the requirement for the U.S. government to pay for the storage and related expensesfor these boats for the last 3 years, boats that apparently have no planned use.In a memorandum of request (MOR) dated 12 October 2010 (enclosure I), CSTC-A requested that theU.S. Department of the Navy purchase eight rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RHIBs) for use by the ANPto patrol the Amu Darya river between Northern Afghanistan and Uzbekistan (see figures 1 and 2).According to the MOR, the total cost of the patrol boats, including spare parts and technicalassistance, would come to just over $3 million.
