  1. SERDP & ESTCPBriefing for BERAC Dr. Jeffrey Marqusee Executive Director February 23, 2010

  2. DoD’s Environmental Technology Programs • Science and Technology • $68 M FY2010 • Demonstration/Validation • $41 M FY2010 • (+ $30M ECIP)

  3. Environmental Technology Development Process ESTCP SERDP Service Requirements Basic/Applied Research Advanced Development Demonstration/ Validation Implementation DUSD(I&E) DDR&E DUSD(I&E) A Requirements Driven Integrated Program

  4. Environmental DriversReduction of Current and Future Liability Contamination from Past Practices Pollution Prevention to Control Life Cycle Costs • Elimination of Pollutants and Hazardous Materials in Manufacturing Maintenance & Operations • Achieve Compliance Through Pollution Prevention • Groundwater, Soils and Sediments • Large UXO Liability • Emerging Contaminants

  5. Environmental DriversSustainability of Ranges, Facilities, and Operations Toxic Air Emissions and Dust Maritime Sustainability Threatened and Endangered Species Noise UXO & Munitions Constituents Urban Growth & Encroachment Climate Change & GHG

  6. Strategic EnvironmentalResearch and Development Program (SERDP) Established by Congress in FY 1991 DoD, DOE, and EPA partnership SERDP is a requirements driven program that: Identifies high-priority environmental science and technology investment opportunities that address DoD requirements Advanced technology development to address near term needs Fundamental research to impact real world environmental management

  7. Established by statute Organization SERDP COUNCIL Council Chair Rotates between DoD and DOE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR SERDP TECHNICAL COMMITTEES (STC) SCIENTIFIC ADVISORY BOARD EXECUTIVE WORKING GROUP • SERDP’s extended virtual staff • multi-agency • > 40 technical members • significant time commitment

  8. Environmental SecurityTechnology Certification Program (ESTCP) • Demonstrate Innovative Cost-Effective Environmental Technologies • Capitalize on past investments • Transition technology out of the lab • Promote Implementation • Direct technology insertion • Gain regulatory and end user acceptance Priority: needs of the DoD user community

  9. Focus Area Management Structure Weapons Systems & Platforms Munitions Management Environmental Restoration Sustainable Infrastructure

  10. SERDP’s Investment Approach • SERDP’s Investments Continuously Evolve • Annual Solicitations Structured Around Statements of Need (SON) • SON Reflect: • Longer term strategic plans to address critical needs • Examples: contaminated groundwater, perchlorate, UXO, marine mammals and sonar, eliminating Cr+6, etc. • SERDP is the dominant investor in some areas (i.e. UXO, perchlorate) • In others SERDP leverages existing investments (i.e. marine mammals-ONR, groundwater-BER ) • Stand alone investments addressing narrower needs

  11. Generating Investment Topics (SON)* SERDP Technical Committees (STC) Workshops Special Studies SERDP Science Advisory Board DoD Environmental Committees and Working Groups Science and Engineering Conferences *Or how SERDP identifies environmental science and technology research opportunities to address DoD requirements

  12. Contaminated Sediments Research in SERDP Sediments Workshop Bioavailability Workshop Development of New Technologies Assessing Impacts of In Place Remedial Strategies Distribution & Placement of Amendments Assessment & Measurement of Processes Impacting F&T of Contaminants Ecosystem Risk & Recovery Assessment Bioavailability FY05 FY06 FY07 FY11 FY10 FY04 FY01 FY08 FY09

  13. SERDP- 2010 SON ER & SI • Environmental Restoration(ER) • Predictive Techniques for Assessment of the Environmental Impact of New Munitions Compounds • The Impact of Contaminant Storage in Low-Permeability Zones on Chlorinated Solvent Groundwater Plumes • Mechanisms of Contaminant Interaction with Soil Components and Its Impact on the Bioavailability of Contaminants • Improved Fundamental Understanding of Contaminant Bioavailability in Aquatic Sediments • Sustainable Infrastructure (SI) • Southwest Ecological Systems on Department of Defense Lands: Altered Fire Regimes and Climate Change • Managing and Restoring Southwest Intermittent and Ephemeral Stream Systems on Department of Defense Lands • Fugitive Dust Emissions Due to Department of Defense Activities

  14. SERDP- 2011 SON ER & SI • Environmental Restoration (ER) • Determination of the Environmental Impacts of Munitions Compounds in the Marine Environment • Groundwater Fate, Transport & Treatment of Perfluoroalkyl Contaminated Groundwater • Improved Understanding of Impacts to Groundwater Quality Post-remediation • Improved Assessment of the Munitions Constituent Source Term on Operational Ranges • In-Situ Remediation of Contaminated Aquatic Sediments (SEED) • Sustainable Infrastructure (SI) • Impacts of Climate Change on Alaskan Ecological Systems • Behavioral Ecology of Cetaceans • Ecological Forestry and Carbon Management • Ecology and Management of Source-sink Populations

  15. ESTCP Investment Approach • Broad Competitive Solictations • DoD, Federal partners, industry, universities • Create Partnerships and Test at DoD Facilities • Developer, regulators, end-user • Direct transition • Validate Operational Cost and Performance • Independent test and evaluation • Satisfy regulatory and user communities • Identify DoD Market Opportunities • Technology transfer

  16. ESTCP 2011 Topics (external) • Protection and Remediation of Contaminated Groundwater • Military Munitions Detection, Discrimination, and Remediation • Ecosystem Service Methodologies and Tools for Department of Defense Installations • Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy for DoD Installations

  17. Leveraging BER Investments • Genomics Science Program and Dehalococcoides & related organisms pceA tceA Dhc strain 195 tceA Dhc strain FL2 bvcA Dhc strain BAV1 ? vcrA Dhc strain VS, Dhc strain GT

  18. SERDP/ESTCP Projects • BER Genomic work is being applied and extended in a number of projects: • ER-1561: Standardized Procedures For Use Of Nucleic Acid-Based Tools (Lebrón) • ER-1586: BioReD: Biomarkers and Tools for Reductive Dechlorination Site Assessment, Monitoring, and Management (Löffler) • ER-1587: Application of microarrays and qPCR to identify phylogenetic and functional biomarkers diagnostic of microbial communities that biodegrade chlorinated solvents to ethene (Alvarez-Cohen) • ER-1588: Molecular Biomarkers for Detecting, Monitoring, and Quantifying Reductive Microbial Processes (Spormann) • ER-0518: Use of Nucleic Acid-Based Tools for Monitoring Biostimulation and Bioaugmentation (Lebrón)

  19. SERDP/ESTCP & QDR Crafting a Strategic Approach to Climate and Energy • “The Department will leverage the Strategic Environmental Research and Development Program, a joint effort among DoD, the Department of Energy, and the Environmental Protection Agency, to develop climate change assessment tools.” • “The Department will also speed innovative energy and conservation technologies from laboratories to military end users. The Environmental Security and Technology Certification Program uses military installations as a test bed to demonstrate and create a market for innovative energy efficiency and renewable energy technologies coming out of the private sector and DoD and Department of Energy laboratories.”

  20. SEDRP/ESTCP Climate Change R&D • DoD • Natural Infrastructure • ~ 30 M acres Impacts Vulnerability DoD Built Infrastructure • DoD • Ecosystem Health • Already stressed systems Adaptation & Mitigation
