5. 5 "Finding the path where both military readiness and environmental stewardship are reinforced and improved by one another... is a very narrow path; but it is the path we must take to act as responsible defenders and citizens of our country." Thomas E. White Secretary of the Army The Path Army's EMS aims to widen the path

6. The Goal The Platform -- Sustainable Installations The Tool -- Army' s mission-focused ISO 14001 EMS Sustainable & Transforming Operations -- over decades of uncertainty

7. 7 Executive Order 13148  E.O. 13148 “Greening of Government Through Environmental Leadership”  Section 401(a)&(b) -- EMS requirements  Agency level EMS self-assessment by 10/22/01  Pilot studies by 4/22/02  EMS at all appropriate federal facilities by 12/31/05

8. 8 Meeting Requirements Self-Assessment (1997, updated 2001) Pilot EMS installations (1997- 99)  Fort Bliss, El Paso, TX  Fort Lewis, Tacoma, WA  Letterkenny Army Depot, Chambersburg, PA  Tobyhanna Army Depot, Tobyhanna, PA  Radford Army Ammunition Plant, Radford VA  US Army Military Academy, West Point, NY  US Army Proving Grounds, Yuma, AZ  US Tank Automotive Research, Development & Engineering Center (TARDEC), Warren, MI  Ft Riley, Fort Riley, KS

9. 9 Army EMS Timelines Two requirements: 1.EO 13148 requires an EMS NLT 12/31/05  Must meet all 5 EMS Implementation criteria 2. Army EMS Action Memorandum requires a mission-focused, ISO 14001 conforming EMS NLT 2009  Part of overall Army Transformation  Part of Transforming Installation Management

10. The Shift Major shift in desired end-state:  Current Goal – Compliance with regulatory requirements. Obeying the law is essential but it d oesn’t ensure mission sustainability.  New Goal – Sustainable & transforming operations. Can't happen without sustainable installations. Manage environmental issues to ensure long-term mission transition and continuance. (Still includes regulatory compliance.)

11. 11 Army EMS Strategy: A Phased Approach Adopted ISO 14001 with mission focus FY04 funding requirements identified  Central investment in guidance, tools, training  Initiate when funds available -- but can move out  Implementation required in FY04  EMS in place by E.O. 13148 deadline  Full conformance with ISO 14001 NLT FY09

12. 12 Phased Implementation 12/31/05 EMS or CEMP at all appropriate facilities 4/00 EO 13148 requires EMS 1997 Interim DoD EMS Policy 1997-99 DoD EMS Pilot Studies 10/01EMS Self Assessment 4/02 EMS Pilots External Internal DoD EMS Policies FY05 Army EMS in place FY03FY04 FY01 FY02 FY01: Build Framework FY02 & 03: Leverage & Enable FY04& 05: Implement FY06: EMS in Place FY09: Full Conformance with ISO 14001 FY09+: Continual Improvement No-Cost Access to ISO 14000 & 9000 FY06 Army EMS In Place

14. 14 Goals for FY02 & 03  Integrate mission priorities throughout EMS implementation  Deliver EMS implementation guidance, tools, training, & validation process  Raise awareness across The Army  Develop SECARMY EMS Policy  Minimize total EMS implementation cost

15. Definition Army Policy Requirement 1. Policy 2. Self-Assessment 3. Awareness 4.Implementation Planning 5. Annual Review Executive Order 13148, “Greening of Government Through Leadership in Environmental Management” requires an Environmental Management System at appropriate federal facilities by December 31, 2005. The Army Environmental Management System Action Memorandum requires a mission focus and conformance with the internationally recognized ISO 14001 EMS Standard NLT FY09. "Installations" include all units, activities, programs, and tenants within fence lines. Formal definition is in DA PAM 405-45 para 2-3. For compliance with E.O. 13148, Army installations have an Environmental Management System in place when all five actions below are complete: A policy statement consistent with the Army Environmental Management System Action Memorandum has been signed by the Garrison Commander & all Mission Commanders. An installation-wide Army Environmental Management System self-assessment has been documented and briefed to all Mission Commanders and signed by the Garrison Commander. Installation personnel have received awareness-level briefings on Army's Environmental Management System. A written plan with defined dates, identified resources, and organizational responsibilities for implementing a mission-advancing ISO 14001 Environmental Management System NLT FY09 has been approved by Mission Commanders and signed by the Garrison Commander. The Garrison Commander & all Mission Commanders conduct a documented annual review of progress on the implementation plan to assure mission focus and ISO 14001 conformance NLT FY09.
