Review Strawman Roadmaps and Potential Technology Projects for Sustainable Installations Initiative Sustainable Infrastructure Tom Broadwater National Defense Center for Environmental Excellence

A Sustainable Installation. . . • Optimizes military training • Provides for the well-being of soldiers and families – Great Facilities – Strong cultural/community services • Has a mutually-beneficial relationship with the local community • Is life-cycle cost-effective to operate • Systematically decreases its dependence: – on fossil fuels and mining; – on non-biodegradable and toxic compounds; • Does not use resources faster than nature can regenerate them; • Operates within its “fair share” of earth’s resources

Purpose of Sustainable Installations Initiative (SII) Technology Workshop Series The ultimate deliverables from a series of three workshops will be: § Technology roadmaps that demonstrate which existing technologies can be applied, in what order, and at what cost benefit to reach the 25 -year sustainability goals established by the installations, § Potential demonstration projects with partnering agencies; and § Identification of gaps in existing organizational framework and technologies (needs statements).

Sustainable Installations Initiative Workshop Series Outcome Workshop #1 • Army Research Office • April 28, 2005 • Who: Army “Pilot” Sustainability Planners, IMA, ACSIM, ODEP, ARO, Others • What: Use Findings of “Pilot” Assessment Database and Installation Data Calls as a Starting Point for Baseline (Recent ISP Data) Coordinated Approach -Matching Vetted Technology Needs with Solution Providers -Facilitating a Process Aligned with RDT&E • Technology Roadmap Hierarchy • Technology Needs Baseline Workshop #2 • Do. D/EPA Region 4 Conference You Are Here Outcome • Potential Demonstration Projects Installation Focus -Installations with Established/Mature Sustainability Programs -Potential Expansion to other Installations as Programs Mature • Near-, mid-, and longterm (R&D) Needs • Initial Technology Roadmap • June 29 -30, 2005 • What: Use Roadmap Hierarchy and Technology Needs Baseline to Align Potential Demonstration Opportunities with Installation Objectives • Who: Army “Pilot” Sustainability Planners and other interests, DOD, EPA, DOE, State, Industry Technology Providers Workshop #3 • Tentative Fort Bragg • Fall 2005 • Technology Starts • Technology Roadmap(s) • Demonstration Projects for NDCEE • Who: Federal Agency & Industry Technology Experts, Army “Pilot” Sustainability Planners Outcome & HQ Personnel • What: Use Initial Roadmap & Populate Requirements (near through long term)

Purpose of SII Technology Workshop #2 The deliverables that this workshop needs to develop are: (1) Next iteration of installation sustainability technology roadmaps, (2) High priority potential technology field demonstration projects, and (3) Identification of potential technology partners that support installation sustainability goals and strategies.
