Hayes Blames Government for Halt in $55 Million Military Housing
Los Angeles builder Hal B. Hayes told the Senate Preparedness Investigating Subcommittee that unreasonable government demands halted work on $55 million of military housing across five installations. He cited escrow cash requirements and excessive lien and performance bonds, plus changes in plans without reimbursed costs. Hayes said the military locked out workers at Camp Lejeune and questioned why no funds were available to cover required changes. He added his firm could finish the projects earlier and cheaper, and hinted at possible damage claims while denying reneging on contracts.
