Modify existing facilities at various Army Reserve locations to conserve energy. 11. REQUIREMENT: PROJECT: Provides mechanical and structural modifications to conserve energy. REQUIREMENT: Modification of existing facilities to comply with energy conservation reulations. CURRENT SITUATION: Existing structures require large quantities of energy to operate due to inadequate insulation. Existing low efficiency mechanical systems use much larger quantities of energy than modern systems. IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED: Failure to provide energy conservation modifications will preclude reduction of energy loss and consumption to a minimum. DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY JUSTIFICATION OF ESTIMATES FOR FISCAL YEAR 1980 APPROPRIATION LANGUAGE MILITARY CONSTRUCTION, NAVAL RESERVE For construction, acquisition, expansion, rehabilitation, and conversion of facilities for the training and administration of the reserve components of the Navy and Marine Corps as authorized by Chapter 133 of title 10, United States Code, as amended, and the Reserve Forces Facilities Acts, /$21,850,000 /$15,000,000, to remain available until expended. DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY MILITARY CONSTRUCTION!, NAVAL RESERVE FY 1980 Program Special Considerations Evaluation of Flood Hazards Proposed land acquisitions and installation construction work have been master planned to prevent the uneconomic use of flood plains and to reduce the risk of flood losses. Project planning is in accordance with requirements of Executive Order No. 11296. Fallout Protection In accordance with Section 610 of Public Law 89-569, as amended, the designs of military construction facilities in this program have been prepared to maximize fallout protection. Fallout shelters have been excluded from amenable structures only for the following reasons: (1) Adequate protection areas are available to fulfill the station's requirements; or (2) the presence of personnel during period of fallout radiation would impair facility operations; or (3) economic limitations necessitated either deferral or accomplishment by some other means. Pollution Abatement The design of proposed military construction projects includes, where appropriate, the provision of facilities for air and water pollution control in accordance with Executive Order 11572. Energy Conservation Proposed Military Construction Projects specifically for energy couservation at Naval installations have been developed, reviewed and selected for early economic payoff and maximum reduction of energy consumption. Projects include improvements to existing facilities and utilities systems to upgrade design, eliminate waste, and install energy saving devices. Criteria for all new facility construction in the Military Construction, Naval Reserve Program requires that the design, materials and operational facilities will provide for a maximum reduction of energy consumption. Environmental Impact Assessments In compliance with Section 102 (2) (c) of the National Environmental Policy Act, an environmental impact assesment has been made of each project in the Navy's Fiscal Year 1980 Military Construction Program. Based on these assessments, it has been determined that the proposed projects will have niether a significant impact on the environment nor are they highly controversial. Design for Accessibility of Physically Handicapped Personnel In accordance with Public Law 90-480, provisions for physically handicapped personnel will be made, where appropriate, in the design of facilities included in this program. |
