According to the IG report, 1,300 new NFRs were discovered during the course of the audit.
The department also released a list of positives from the audit, including:
A deep dive into inventory at Naval Air Station Jacksonville identified $280 million of items not tracked properly. Of that, $81 million of material was identified as available for immediate use for Naval operations that the service had no idea it had on hand. Getting rid of old, unusable material freed up approximately 200,000 square feet of storage space.
The Army implemented a new automated solution for data entry into the U.S. Standard General Ledger. Moving to automation should save the service around 15,500 labor hours.
The Air Force also tapped automation, in order to identify user accounts that are no longer relevant in military IT systems, closing an average of 55 a month, which should improve cyber security.

The Real Watergate Scandal
Collusion, Conspiracy, and the Plot that Brought Nixon Down
“The system worked,” Carl Bernstein’s famous assessment of Watergate, turns out to be completely wrong. Powerful new evidence reveals that in the most consequential scandal in American history, virtually nothing worked as intended. The real Watergate scandal is how our Constitution and Bill of Rights were deliberately trashed in the successful effort to realign political power, drive President Nixon from office, and imprison his senior aides.

"Hmmm. The location of the Gigafactory is in close proximity to lithium mines in Nevada. Unless they can get lithium from a legitimate source way cheaper than from the mines, I fail to see why Tesla/Panasonic would want to even consider another source."
TESLA's lithium supply from a famous con-artist. Why?
Submitted by Dylan Calle on Mon, 2015-08-31 11:27
"I'm a big supporter of Tesla and an admirer of Elon Musk, but finding out that the contract for the lithium supply of the new Gigafactory is with a company that isn't even producing lithium yet and is led by the famous "Gatwick Gusher" con-artist David Lenigas wasn't really comprehensible. I understand that securing the lithium supply for the Gigafactory for a lower price is certainly economically feasible, but why not with the companies that actually are producing it, rather than with companies that only claim they will be producing it at some point if all expenses are payed out for them."
British company, Rare Earth Minerals PLC.

At first the situation looked promising. Chinese companies restricted rare earth exports to Japan over a diplomatic dispute in 2010, leading prices to spike. Molycorp’s stock would later soar. The cash-rich company announced several acquisitions — processing plants in Arizona and Estonia as well as a Canadian rare earth technology group named Neo Materials that had extensive operations in China.
But in actuality, Molycorp was struggling to stay solvent. Those new innovative technologies? They didn’t generate significant revenue or work as designed. By 2013, the company’s revenues were in free fall. The president and CEO stepped down amid an investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission into the accuracy of the company’s public disclosures (though he was never charged with any wrongdoing).
As the company’s fortunes dwindled, its new CEO oversaw much of Molycorp’s most profitable assets being transferred to Chinese-linked Neo Materials, where he formerly served as CEO. Molycorp’s final remaining husk declared bankruptcy in 2014. Unsurprisingly, the majority of Neo Materials’ revenue-producing operations are now in China. To make matters worse, the Mountain Pass mine was purchased out of bankruptcy by a consortium that included a Chinese-owned firm.

A report by the U.S. Commerce Department recommends the government strengthen relations with foreign companies that provide minerals critical to military development.
The report was released Tuesday amid a trade war between the United States and China.
“The United States is heavily dependent on critical mineral imports. If China or Russia were to stop exports to the United States and its allies for a prolonged period — similar to China’s rare earths embargo in 2010 — an extended supply disruption could cause significant shocks throughout U.S. and foreign critical mineral supply chains,” the report states.
The report also notes that the U.S. is import-reliant on 31 of the 35 minerals designated as critical by the Department of the Interior. Furthermore, the U.S. completely relies on imports for 14 of these minerals.
The report also says the country’s imports of “critical mineral commodities” exceed 50 percent of its annual consumption. These rare earth minerals are often used in the production of aircraft, computers and GPS systems.
Last year China produced 78 percent of the world’s rare earth minerals, according to researchers at Bank of America Merrill Lynch.
