  1. Panel Agenda Introductions HQDA Perspectives • Review of Sustainability Drivers • Planning • Implementation & Success Stories Installation Benefits, Lessons Learned Presentations • IMCOM-EU - Planning • Fort Lewis – Implementation Case Study • IMCOM-SE – Implementation Technologies Question and Answer

  2. From Strategy to Results Leslie Gillespie-Marthaler Assistant for Sustainability, ODASA(ESOH) 703-697-5433 leslie.gillespiemarthaler@hqda.army.mil

  3. What is it? “Sustainability is a national security imperative in a world of decreasing natural resources and increasing demand. The Army is building green, buying green, and going green in order to ensure that Soldiers have the resources they need to accomplish their mission in the United States and globally.”- Secretary of the U.S. Army, Mr. Pete Geren.From STAND-TO! Edition: October 09, 2007

  4. Formal Drivers • EO 13423 • Energy Policy Act of 2005 • Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 • Army Strategy for the Environment

  5. The Vision • Our Goals • Foster a sustainability ethic • Strengthen Army operations • Meet test, training, and mission requirements • Minimize impacts and total ownership costs • Enhance well-being • Drive innovation Sustainability Defined A sustainable Army simultaneously meets current as well as future mission requirements worldwide safeguards human health improves quality of life, and enhances the natural environment. The Army Strategy for the Environment “Triple bottom line” Plus – Mission, Environment, Community + Economy

  6. Another Look – Triple Bottom Line Plus • Earth – Necessary to live • Mission – Necessary to succeed • Community – Necessary to thrive • Plus – Create new economic capacity/sustain improvement

  7. Sustainability Myths • Myth: Sustainability costs more • Myth: Sustainability = environment • Myth: Sustainability is not environment • Truth: Sustainability improves odds for success • Truth: Sustainability supports effective mission • Truth: Sustainability creates efficiencies (Business Transformation)

  8. Planning • Army Sustainability Committee • HQDA Strategic Plan • IMCOM Action Plan • Tool Development • Expectation: Each installation will examine their sustainability challenges and develop strategic goals that are aligned to legal drivers and Army/IMCOM strategies and plans

  9. Planning Workshops • Coordinate installation selection with IMCOM Region • Current priorities are Tier I and II installations • Conduct scoping visit to installation • Formalize workshop commitment, expectations, and schedule • Conduct sustainability planning workshops to: • Assist installation better understand how sustainability challenges affect operations • Facilitate installation identify long-term sustainability goals • Facilitate development of installation action plans for near and mid-term sustainability initiatives • Help integrate Army sustainability goals into installation strategic planning and everyday management through EMS

  11. Implementation • Army Compatible Use Buffers (ACUB) • Sustainable Range Program (SRP) • http://www.sustainability.army.mil • Success story database • Facility technology investment fund • Resources on AKO under construction • Technologies • Business transformation tools • EMS – Key Garrison Measure

  12. Good DPW G A R Overall Office Assessment Compliance PERFORMANCE: MEASURE 9: Establish Sustainability Goals and Implement through Installation Environmental Management System (EMS). Establish Long Term Strategic Sustainability Goals Aligned with EO 13423, Energy Policy Act of 2005, and Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 by the End of FY10. Sustainability Goals Supported by EMS Objectives and Targets by the End of FY10. Formula: Based on compliance with milestones R/A/G: G=Installation has sustainability goals that are supported by EMS objectives and targets A=Installation has initiated development of sustainability goals R=Installation has not initiated the development of sustainability goals. AEC POC: Antonia Giardina, 410.436.7069 • ANALYSIS: • XXXX. • Summary of strengths. • Summary of deficiencies • WAY AHEAD: • Strategy to sustain/improve. Sustainability is Good Leadership; EMS is Good Management

  13. Sustainability Successes Ft Bragg: • Sustainable Sandhills partnership formed • Urban training village built from recycled containers (saved $220K) • LEED standards implemented in new construction & 45 renovations • Sustainability principles incorporated into Master Plan & Installation Design Guide • $1.2M generated in FY07 from Qualified Recycling Program

  14. Sustainability Successes (con’t) Ft Carson: • Citizens Soldier Connection Program • Solar collector wall saves $25-35K/year in natural gas • Partnering with Western Area Power Assoc. • Improving on-post transportation flow, including bike traffic • Diverting over 80% of construction debris from barracks renovations • Solid waste reduction initiatives saved $500K in FY06 • ACUB placed 12,000 acres in conservation easements

  15. Sustainability Successes (con’t) Ft Hood: • $1.739M generated in FY06 from solid waste recycling • Solvent recovery system reuses nearly all solvents & drums • Almost 90% reclaimed product from used oil • Recycled tires used in tank firing range platform to reduce dust • LED lights & reflectors at airfield saves over $60K/year (reduced energy consumption by 63%) Ft Lewis: • Reused 9100+ tons of waste concrete/asphalt ($340K / year savings) • ACUB & ITAM are restoring habitat, growing native species, etc. • Sustainable Interiors Showroom ($180K of recyclable furniture) • Alternate fuel/dual fuel vehicle use increased to 40% • Increased post’s Ride Share program

  16. Sustainability Successes (con’t) USAG Hawaii’s solar-powered Army Family Housing • 30% of community’s electricity from PV-generated power • Solar hot water heaters reduce energy demand by 40% Ft Leonard Wood – 71% of vehicles use alternate fuels • 112 vehicles use biodiesel & 209 vehicles use E85 • 460 tactical vehicles use B20 Ft Polk – Energy Savings Performance Contract (ESPC) installed heat pumps in 4,000 housing units • Contract also included low-flow shower heads, compact fluorescent lights, & attic insulation Ft Irwin – fleet of 120 Global Electric Motorcars

  17. Sustainable Facilities “Green buildings” & low-impact development for new construction & major renovations • Reduce energy use via solar panels, heat pumps, day-lighting • Improve water conservation (e.g., low-flow plumbing, zeroscaping) • Green building materials (e.g., low VOC paints & carpets, recycled material) • Reduce/eliminate runoff (porous paving, vegetative roofs, cisterns) “Community’ development approach • Co-located Unit HQ & barracks • Proximity to PX, Commissary, Chapel, etc. • Improved on-post transportation

  18. Future Combat Systems Hybrid-Electric Tactical Vehicles “…every Manned Ground Vehicle, is going to be hybrid electric," said FCS Program Manager Maj. Gen. Charles Cartwright, during a session at AUSA’s Institute of Land Warfare Winter Symposium and Exposition. "Coming off the engine is about 420 kilowatts of power, which means now, for the first time, you are looking at all-electric vehicles. We'll have fiber optics inside vehicles, and the capability of bringing sensor commutations – which all use electrical power -- inside these platforms for the very first time." The Mounted Combat System is 1 of 8 new Manned Ground Vehicle types -- all hybrid-electric powered vehicles

  19. On the Horizon • Focus on energy security • Pilot for Zero Net Energy Installations • IPR to identify & address sustainability successes & roadblocks • Development of Resources List (e.g., sustainability POCs, funding sources, technology assistance, support agencies) • Establishment of Army EO 13423 Committee • Implementation of plans supporting EO 13423: • Electronic Stewardship Plan • Toxic & Hazardous Chemicals Reduction Plan • Green Procurement Strategy
