3 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The military community in South Carolina accounts for a significant portion of the state s total economic activity. In addition to eight major military installations encompassing over 74,000 personnel (including active duty, reserve, and civilian employees), South Carolina s military community includes the S.C. Military Department, the Army Reserve of South Carolina, over 600 defense- contracting firms, and nearly 58,000 military retirees. Each military installation in South Carolina helps to fuel economic activity by purchasing goods and services from the local community and by providing labor income to military and civilian personnel. In addition, many of the state s military installations induce further economic activity through attracting thousands of out- of- state visitors every year as well as military retirees who choose to live in close proximity to military installations and avail themselves of the facilities and services these installations offer to veterans. Both of these population groups spend part of their income on local goods and services, thereby increasing local demand. All of this economic activity then leads to further rounds of spending known as the economic multiplier effect, which generates further activity within the local region and the state overall. The purpose of this study is to specifically document the economic impact of the military community on the state of South Carolina. In addition, this study estimates the net loss to the Columbia MSA and to South Carolina that would result from a hypothetical reduction in personnel of 3,071 at the Fort Jackson military base. The key findings of this study are as follows: The total annual economic impact of the military community on the state of South Carolina is approximately $19.3 billion. This figure represents the dollar value of all final goods and services produced in South Carolina that can be attributed (either directly or indirectly) to the military community. This impact corresponds to 152,812 jobs and over $8.6 billion in labor income for South Carolinians that would not exist otherwise. South Carolina s military community is anchored around the state s eight major military installations and the Army Reserve of South Carolina. These installations include Fort Jackson, Shaw Air Force Base, Joint Base Charleston, SSC Atlantic, Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort, Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island, Naval Hospital Beaufort, and the South Carolina Military Department (including McEntire Joint National Guard Base). Together, these components of the military community generate $17.9 billion in annual economic activity, along with nearly 144,021 jobs and $8.2 billion in labor income as listed below. 3

Of the nearly 58,000 military retirees living in South Carolina, at least 23,194 are estimated to have chosen to live in the state to gain access to the many veterans services South Carolina s military installations offer. These retirees who are linked to these installations generate an additional economic impact of $450.0 million for South Carolina. South Carolina s military community contributes approximately $14.8 billion to the state s annual gross state product. This implies that the military community generates economic activity that produces approximately $771.4 million in annual tax revenue for the state. A possible personnel reduction at Fort Jackson of 3,071 (2,363 military and 708 civilian) as a part of the Army s overall reduction of force would generate a substantial net economic loss to South Carolina. This loss would likely exceed $952 million in annual economic output, which would translate into job losses totaling approximately 8,101 and be accompanied by $421 million worth of lost labor income. The vast majority of this loss (90%) would occur in the Columbia MSA. Accompanying these economic losses would be an annual decline in state tax revenue of $38.8 million. This personnel reduction, if implemented, would also be likely to reduce the facilities and services Fort Jackson is able to offer veterans, which is estimated to reduce the military population of South Carolina by 1,458. This would lead to an additional economic loss to the state of $28.3 million annually. 4

8 INTRODUCTION South Carolina contains an extensive military presence that is located throughout the state and has a major impact on the state s economy. South Carolina is home to eight major military installations, 38,091 active- duty military personnel, 18,916 military reserve personnel, and 57,755 military retirees. 1 Among all states in the country, South Carolina has the 10 th highest active duty military population and the 9 th highest military retiree population. 2 In addition, there are over 600 defense contracting firms executing Department of Defense (DOD) contracts within the state. 3 The purpose of this study is to document the total economic impact that the military community has on the state of South Carolina. Each military installation in the state supports economic activity through its procurement of goods and services from the state s business community as well as through the labor income paid to military and civilian personnel. This initial injection of funding into the state s economy then leads to additional rounds of spending through various economic multiplier effects. Because military facilities are funded through the federal government, expenditures made by these facilities represent an injection of new funds into South Carolina s economy that would not exist otherwise. As a result, these lead to a net increase in jobs and income for the state. This can be explicitly contrasted with funding that comes from state tax revenue, which only re- allocates jobs and incomes from one sector of the economy to another. One of the important components of economic growth in any region is the ability to attract spending from outside of that region. This is why national and international firms, tourism, and export- oriented manufacturing are important to South Carolina s economic growth: they bring new spending to the state, which then translates into new jobs and additional income. In a similar fashion, federal funding that enters the state through military expenditures will have the same effect. Military facilities also have a unique impact in that they help to attract and retain military retirees in South Carolina. Veterans are able to use all of the support facilities (e.g., medical care, recreational facilities) that the various military installations throughout the state maintain, which makes them more likely to permanently locate in South Carolina upon their retirement from active service. The income these retirees spend in their local region represents additional funding that supports local economic activity. In a similar fashion, out- of- state military and civilian visitors to South Carolina military installations introduce new spending to the state s economy. All of the aforementioned economic activity that is generated also generates additional tax revenue for the state of South Carolina. 1 Source: 2012 Demographics Profile of the Military Community, U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, and U.S. Department of Defense 2 Source: Statistical Report on the Military Retirement System, FY2013, last updated July Source: 8

9 In this study, the military community/presence in South Carolina will be defined as including the following eleven elements: - Fort Jackson - Shaw Air Force Base - Joint Base Charleston - Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center Atlantic - Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort - Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island - Naval Hospital Beaufort - South Carolina Military Department - Army Reserve of South Carolina - Department of Defense Contracting Firms - Military Retirees The economic impact of each element will be primarily measured through estimates of job and income creation and the overall contribution to South Carolina s economy. Figure 1 illustrates the locations of the eight major military installations in South Carolina along with the counties that receive the majority of the economic benefits of these facilities. Figure 1 Locations of Federal Military Installations in South Carolina Note: Red denotes the Midlands MSA, orange denotes the Sumter MSA, blue denotes the Charleston MSA, and green denotes the Lowcountry (Beaufort and Jasper counties). 4 4 The acronym MSA refers to Metropolitan Statistical Area. MSA s are specific geographic regions defined by the U.S. Census Bureau for the purpose of conducting regional economic and statistical analyses. 9

10 This report begins by presenting an overview of the economic impact methodology that is used, including a discussion of direct, indirect, and induced impacts. Next, this report details all estimates that illustrate the economic impact of each of the eleven elements of South Carolina s military community on the state, including the total annual contribution that the military community makes to state tax revenue. The report then briefly addresses several intangible benefits of the military community to South Carolina. Finally, the report provides several Force Reduction Assessments that highlight the economic losses that would occur in South Carolina if the recent federal budget sequestration were to reduce the funding to Fort Jackson and in turn reduce its total number of personnel. METHODOLOGY The economic impact of any organization is measured by how expenditures of that organization create demand for goods and services over what they would have been otherwise. Military facilities also provide an additional impact through attracting visitors as well as by helping to attract military retirees to South Carolina. Increases in the number of visitors and retirees creates a rise in spending levels within the region, thereby further increasing overall economic activity. In a standard economic impact analysis, there are three types of economic impacts that can be analyzed: direct, indirect, and induced. The direct effect represents the initial change in economic activity. The direct effect of a military installation is comprised of all expenditures made by that installation within South Carolina. This includes, for example, personnel costs (wages), institutional construction, residential construction, maintenance costs, equipment, utilities, and medical care. This spending increases demand and leads to the creation of new jobs and income for the personnel and suppliers of the military installation across the state. The indirect effect reflects additional rounds of spending that occur due to inter- industry linkages between local firms. For example, if a military installation were to spend funding on the construction of new barracks, the builder of these barracks would see an increase in demand. To satisfy this demand, the building company would then have to purchase supplies from its vendors. The building company s vendors would then see an increase in demand and, in turn, have to purchase supplies from their own sets of suppliers. These indirect effects would continue moving through the supply chain and affect many sectors of South Carolina s economy. The induced effect reflects additional economic activity due to increases in household spending. For example, when a military installation hires a building company to construct new barracks and the demand for construction services rises, some of the construction staff will see an increase in their income. Part of this income will then be spent in the local economy on goods and services such as food, entertainment, or housing. This creates an increase in demand on the part of these 10

11 retailers, who then must hire new workers in order to meet this demand. The new workers who are hired spend part of their money in the local economy, and so on. These successive rounds of indirect and induced spending do not continue indefinitely, which is why a specific value can be calculated for each of them. In each round of spending, some dollars are lost as they are either saved by individuals or spent by businesses or consumers outside of South Carolina. In order to calculate the indirect and induced impacts, economic multipliers are used. An economic multiplier can be used to determine the total impact (direct, indirect, and induced) that arises from an initial change in economic activity (direct). For example, if $1 million was spent on new construction at a military installation and this expenditure ultimately resulted in a total increase of $1.8 million in economic activity in South Carolina, then the economic output multiplier would be 1.8. Multipliers are different in each sector of the local economy and are primarily driven by the size of the local supplier network. Multipliers also depend on the region being examined. For example, a $1 million construction expenditure would have a larger impact on the state of South Carolina than it would on the Midlands region alone. Economic multipliers can be estimated for total economic activity (output), employment, and labor income. These are the standard measures used to determine the economic impact of an organization. In simple terms, these metrics are defined as follows: Total Impact (Economic Output) the contribution to overall economic activity; this is an all- inclusive measurement of the annual value of goods and services associated with S.C. s military community Employment the total number of full- time equivalent jobs associated with the measured economic output tied to S.C. s military community Labor Income the dollar value representing all wages, salaries, and benefits associated with total employment To estimate the impact of each element of the military community on the state of South Carolina, the Division of Research used a structural input- output model of the South Carolina economy containing specific information on economic linkages between over 500 of the state s industries. The input- output modeling software IMPLAN was used to calculate estimates. Unless otherwise indicated, all estimates are based on fiscal year 2014 data. 11

12 ECONOMIC IMPACT: FORT JACKSON Background Fort Jackson was initially known as the Sixth National Cantonment after its establishment on June 2, 1917, referring to the fact that it was one of sixteen national cantonments that were constructed to support the United States effort in World War I. The initial site comprised nearly 1,200 acres, which were donated by the city of Columbia. Three months after construction began, 8,000 draftees arrived for training and the first military unit known as the 81 st Wildcat Division was established under Major General C.H. Barth, the first official commander. This Division was merged with the 30 th Old Hickory Division, which later sent more than 45,000 troops to France as part of the America Expeditionary Forces. Following World War I, control of Fort Jackson reverted to the Cantonment Lands Commission which lasted from 1925 until Due to new demands of war, in 1939 Fort Jackson returned to federal control and was organized as an infantry- training center. More than 500,000 men who served in World War II received some form of training at Fort Jackson. Fort Jackson steadily grew throughout the 1940s and into 1950s due to World War II and the Korean conflict, but most of the buildings used on the base had been temporary. In 1964, however, construction of the first steel and concrete buildings began in order to replace temporary wooden barracks that had previously provided housing for all troops. In the 1970s, the establishment of an all- volunteer army provided the catalyst for additional construction activities. Facilities were modernized and services improved to make military life more attractive to civilians. In 1973, Fort Jackson was officially designated as a U.S. Army Training Center, with its official mission to transform volunteers into soldiers able to function effectively in their first unit of assignment, as well as to train and educate military and civilian leaders and provide the highest possible quality of life for soldiers and their families. Today, Fort Jackson has become the largest and most active Initial Entry Training Center. Fort Jackson trains 54 percent of the Army s Basic Combat Training (BCT) load and 61 percent of all women entering the army. BCT is a ten- week course that trains soldiers in rifle marksmanship, dismounted land navigation, patrolling, military operations in urban terrain, convoy defense, improvised explosive device (IED) defeat, as well as other essential skills for soldiers. BCT is provided to nearly 45,000 soldiers at Fort Jackson each year. Fort Jackson also provides advanced soldier training known as Advanced Individual Training (AIT) where soldiers practice their Military Operational Specialty (MOS). Over 5,000 soldiers receive AIT at Fort Jackson every year and more than 50,000 soldiers graduate from BCT and AIT at Fort Jackson every year. Fort Jackson provides further advanced training to over 24,000 students in other 12

13 advanced schools, including: the Army s Drill Sergeant, Master Fitness and Master Resiliency Schools; the Soldier Support Institute and their Adjutant General, Financial Management, Non- Commissioned Officers Academy, and Inter- Service Postal Training Activity; the National Center for Credibility Assessment; and the Armed Forces Chaplaincy Center and School training Army, Air Force, and Naval Chaplains. Approximately 15,000 acres of the 52,000- acre base are licensed to the South Carolina Army National Guard (SCARNG), which operates the McGrady National Training Center (MTC). The MTC is responsible for training members of the SCARNG and is the central training facility for Navy and Air Force Personnel assigned as Individual Augmentees. Fort Jackson also provides numerous support services for soldiers and their families, including the Moncreif Army Community Hospital a 60- bed general medical and surgical hospital located on the base to serve as medical support. It provides primary care services, as well as immunization services, lab services, radiology services, and behavioral health services. The hospital services personnel and families assigned to Fort Jackson, the Shaw Air Force Base, and the many thousands of military retirees living in the Midlands. Fort Jackson also hosts an elementary school, a middle school, two bowling alleys, park and picnic areas, a sport- shooting range, a recreational water park, a 36- hole golf course, as well as a variety of other recreational activities. Economic Impact The largest source of Fort Jackson s economic impact derives from its base operations. In- state procurement and payroll employment (military and civilian) to support these operations provide a direct injection of funding into the local economy. These dollars come from the federal government, and therefore represent new sources of spending from outside of the state. Out- of- state military and civilian visitors to Fort Jackson also introduce new spending to the local economy. Approximately 200,000 people visit Fort Jackson every year, which includes friends and families of soldiers and various personnel visiting for official reasons. The majority of visitors to Fort Jackson do so to attend one of the base s graduation ceremonies. These visitors spend money off the base at a variety of local vendors (e.g., restaurants, hotels), which provides an additional net gain to economic activity. All impacts resulting from visitor spending activity represent induced economic multiplier effects. In other words, these impacts derive exclusively from increased economic activity among local vendors that results from increased household spending by individuals (visitors) in the local region. 13

14 Table 1 below highlights the total economic impact on South Carolina that results from all base operations at Fort Jackson as well as all out- of- state visitor spending. Table 1 Economic Impact of Fort Jackson on South Carolina Employment Labor Income Economic Output Direct Effect 7,554 $510.1 million $963.0 million Multiplier Effect 12,294 $495.1 million $1.3 billion Total Effect 19,848 $1.0 billion $2.2 billion The approximately $963 million in annual economic activity that is directly supported by Fort Jackson leads to an additional $1.3 billion in economic multiplier effects. This is the result of increased demand for goods and services of local suppliers and additional household spending that results from the $963 million in procurement activity by Fort Jackson. The combination of the direct and multiplier effect leads to a total impact of $2.2 billion on the state of South Carolina. This economic activity is associated with 19,848 jobs and approximately one billion in labor income. Fort Jackson s economic impact on South Carolina also extends to many industrial sectors. Table 2 highlights the 20 most impacted sectors and the annual economic activity associated with each. 14

Notice, for example, that approximately 86 percent of the job creation supported by Fort Jackson is concentrated in the Columbia MSA. Table 3 Economic Impact of Fort Jackson on the Columbia MSA Employment Labor Income Economic Output Direct Effect 7,554 $510.1 million $909.3 million Multiplier Effect 9,577 $442.2 million $1.1 billion Total Effect 17,131 $952.3 million $2.0 billion The approximately $909 million in annual economic activity that is directly supported by Fort Jackson leads to an additional $1.1 billion in economic multiplier effects. Once again, this is the result of increased demand for goods and services of 5 The Columbia metropolitan statistical area (MSA), also referred to as the Midlands region, is comprised of Lexington, Richland, Kershaw, Calhoun, Fairfield, and Saluda counties. 15

16 local suppliers and additional household spending that results from the $909 million in procurement activity by Fort Jackson. Fort Jackson s economic impact on the Midlands also extends to many industrial sectors. Table 4 highlights the 20 most impacted sectors and the annual economic activity associated with each.

Approximately 7,400 active duty and reserve personnel are assigned to this base, with 79 percent of those personnel living off base. More than 1,000 civilians also work on base. Shaw s host unit is the 20 th Fighter Wing, the largest F- 16 combat wing in the Air Force and the only defense suppression wing in the United States. In 2011, this wing flew more than 21,000 hours, which was more than any other fighter wing in the Air Force. This record pace continues today. The 20 th Fighter Wing operates over 80 F- 16CM fighter aircraft in conventional and anti- radiation suppression of enemy air defenses, strategic attack, counter air, air interdiction, joint maritime operations, and combat 16

17 search- and- rescue missions. It also provides personnel, facilities, and materials for Shaw AFB s diverse operations. Shaw AFB is also home to the Headquarters of Ninth Air Force, U.S. Air Forces Central (AFCENT) and U.S. Army Central (ARCENT). Ninth Air Force is responsible for ensuring the agile combat support capabilities of eight wings and three direct reporting units. These units encompass more than 350 aircraft and 28,000 active- duty and civilian personnel. The Ninth Air Force is also responsible for the operational readiness of 16 Ninth Air Force- gained National Guard and Air Force Reserve units. AFCENT is the air component of United States Central Command, a regional unified command. It is responsible for air operations (either unilaterally or in concert with coalition partners) and developing contingency plans in support of national objectives for USCENTCOM's 20- nation area of responsibility in Southwest Asia. Third Army/ARCENT transferred to Shaw as a result of the 2005 Base Realignment and Closer Commission. It is the Army component of USCENTCOM and the Coalition Forces Land Component Command. Furthermore, Shaw hosts the 372 nd Training Squadron (Detachment 2); 337 th Recruiting Squadron; the Air Force Audit Agency (Team D, Mid- Atlantic area audit office); the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (Detachment 212); and Air Combat Command s F- 16 Aerial Demonstration Team. Shaw AFB has received hundreds of millions of dollars for renovation and new construction over the past four years to include state- of- the- art technology and facilities. Recent renovations and construction include: Renovated, networked F- 16 flight simulators A $125 million investment for a new headquarters building and support facilities for the Third Army/Army Central Command Two new, 144- man energy efficient dormitories and three smaller renovated dormitories A new $25 million fitness center 600 new units of privately financed family housing A new Army and Air Force Exchange Service shopping center A new $60 million medical treatment facility Three larger, safer, and more secure base entry points The expansion and renovation of facilities for the Air Force Central Command Headquarters Economic Impact The total economic impact of Shaw AFB on the state of South Carolina including all operations, in- state procurement, and military and civil payroll employment totals $2.2 billion in economic activity annually, as illustrated in Table 5. This is associated with approximately 13,832 jobs and $1.0 billion in labor income. 17

In 1941 NWS Charleston was commissioned as a U.S. Naval Ammunition Depot and served as a munitions 19

20 collection and distribution point during World War II. Following the war, the site handled guided missiles and arming submarines. In 1942 the City of Charleston began leasing the Charleston Municipal Airport to the War Department, thus founding what eventually became Charleston Army Air Field. In addition to providing a home for anti- submarine units, the field s initial mission was training air depot groups. That training mission changed and the field began training combat crews for B- 24 Liberators.
