Book Description
The Secretary of the Navy has legal authority (10 U.S.C. 7306) to transfer title of ships no longer needed for the Navy's purposes to not-for-profit entities and others. However, the law requires that (1) such a donation be made at no cost to the government, (2) the recipient maintain the ship, and (3) Congress be allowed 60 days to review the Secretary's decision. The Navy's ship donation evaluation process is designed to help the Secretary of the Navy determine whether those seeking a donation of a ship meet the Navy's requirements for financial and technical capabilities. The overall purpose of the ship donation program is to promote the public interest in the defense of the nation and to commemorate historic deeds performed by naval ships. In the past, with one exception, only 1 application was received for each of 43 donations and the qualified applicant received the donation. However, for the USS Missouri, the Navy received five applications. The Navy began the donation process for the USS Missouri in the same manner as prior donations, by requesting financial and technical information from the applicants and working with applicants to help ensure that the applications would satisfy the Navy's financial and technical requirements.

Book Description
On January 20, 2000, the Secretary of the Navy approved the selection of the Home Port Alliance (the Alliance), a nonprofit organization, to receive the U.S.S. New Jersey under the Navy's ship donation program. The organization had sought to obtain the ship for use as a floating museum to be moored in Camden, New Jersey The Secretary's decision represented the culmination of a competition between the Alliance and the U.S.S. New Jersey Battleship Commission (the Battleship Commission), another nonprofit organization, which had sought to obtain the ship for a proposed museum in Bayonne, New Jersey. After the Navy's decision, questions were raised concerning whether each competing organization had received equitable treatment in the selection process. At your request, we reviewed the selection process. This report addresses whether (1) the selection decision was credible and (2) opportunities exist to improve the selection process for future donations.

Book Description
In January 2000, the Navy chose the Home Port Alliance, a nonprofit group, to receive the U.S.S. New Jersey under the Navy's ship donation program. This report summarizes GAO's findings on the credibility of the selection process and opportunities for improvement. GAO found that the Navy applied its donation evaluation criteria in an impartial, multiple-stage process that led to a credible and objective decision. Although not significant to the outcome of the U.S.S. New Jersey decision, opportunities exist to strengthen the timeliness, clarity of guidance, and communications of the selection process.
