GAO (1) compared the costs to homeport the U.S.S. Missouri in Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, with those to permanently homeport the battleship in Long Beach, California; and (2) determined if each location had sufficient repair and maintenance facilities to dry-dock and over-haul the battleship. GAO also compared the value of the Manana Storage Area and Pearl City Junction properties with the minimum compensation the Navy can accept for conveying the properties to the State of Hawaii. This report summarizes and updates the contents of a March 1990 briefing. Keywords: Naval shore facilities; Ports facilities; Site selection; Battleship repair; Cost analysis. (edc)
