The 194th only left Ft Know in August 1999. It seems safe to say that up until this point they were jointly tasked (along with dedicated civilian and/or military personnel) with protecting the depository.
Therefore, why would it need to be moved any earlier than August 1999?
What do we know about the protective units of the depository? Sure it can't rely solely on the local military units? Sure there must be members of the treasury there? Perhaps this dedicated force was deemed sufficient to protect the depository against what was expected to be no more than local marauders and refugees? Remember that an organised threat in the form of NA didn't show up until 15 months later.
