>>WELCOME TO THE
FEDERAL ENVIRONMENTAL SYMPOSIUM,
DAY 2, TRACK 5. THIS IS THE
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS TRACK.
I'M THE MODERATOR FOR TODAY'S
SESSION, CHRISTOPHER PANE FROM
LAWRENCE NATIONAL LABORATORY AND
PLEASED TO HAVE WITH US A NUMBER
OF SPAESHGERS TELLING US ABOUT
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND ROLE OF
IMPROVING ENERGY AND PERFORMANCE
AT OUR FACILITIES AND FOR THOSE
WATCHING ON THE VIDEO CAST, I
INVITE YOU TO PROFIEDE FEEDBACK.
YOU MIGHT HAVE TO SCROLL DOWN TO
SEE THAT. THAT WILL SEND LIVE
FEEDBACK BUTTON AND WILL SEND AN
E-MAIL THAT WILL GO TO AN
ACCOUNT THAT WE ARE MONITORING
AND THAT WILL ALLOW US TO READ
YOUR FEEDBACK AND RESPOND
ACCORDING
ACCORDINGLY.
WITH THAT I WILL GET STARTED AND
KEEP THINGS RUNNING ON TIME AND
DELIGHTED TO INVITE THE FIRST
PRESENTER TO COME TO THE STAGE,
IF IT WERE. DR. PETER PER/*
PERKEL SEN LIKE ISO50,001 AND
TODAY'S TALK WILL TELL US ABOUT
THE INNER WORKINGS OF ISO
MANAGEMENT STANDARDS.
PLEASE TAKE IT AWAY, PETER.
>> THANK YOU, CHRIS. GOOD
MORNING, EVERYONE. THANK YOU
FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK
WITH YOU TODAY ABOUT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS AND COMMON FRAMEWORKS
THAT CAN BE USE THE UNDERNEATH
THEM TO CREATE EFFICIENCIES AND
MAKE EVERYONE'S LIFE A LITTLE
EASIER THAT COMES INTO CONTACT
WITH THEM.
AS YOU SEE THE TALK TITLE
FOCUSES ON ISO, THE
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD
ORGANIZATIONS HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE, SOMETIMES CALLED
HARMONIZED APPROACH, THAT THEY
HAVE DEPLOYED AND ARE BUILDING
OUT INTO IT THEIR MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS STANDARDS.
I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT THE
FRAMEWORK OF THE HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE AND HOW IT UNITES
DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
TOGETHER AND HOW IT IS ADAPTABLE
FOR TOPIC AND OTHER SPECIFIC
NEEDS OF INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR
APPLICATIONS OF MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS TO DIFFERENT TOP PICKS
AND ALSO TO DISCUSS HAD HOW THIS
CONCEPT OF A HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE CAN BE USED BY THOSE
MANAGING DIFFERENT RESOURCES
ENVIRONMENTAL ENERGY, RESILIENCY
AND OTHER THINGS AT FEDERAL
SITES AND FACILITIES CAN USE
THIS CONCEPT OF UNITING NAIM
WORK EVEN WHEN NOT USING AN ISO
STANDARD ITSELF.
A LITTLE BACKGROUND ON MYSELF
AND WHY I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT
TALKING ABOUT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AND HOW I GOT TO THIS SEAT AND
WHERE I'M SEEING THIS GOING FOR
US COLLECTIVELY IN THE FUTURE.
I'M A RESEARCHER BY TRAINING AND
SPENT MY EARLY ACADEMICS AND
EARLY LIFE AT LBNL IN A
COMBUSTIAL LABORATORY SHOOTING
LASERS AT STARS FROM A FAR
DISTANT CRY SITTING IN A BIG
MEETING HALL IN VOOE ENA AUSTRIA
DISCUSSING INS AND OUTS OF ISO
STANDARDS AND THIS IS ME IN THE
LEFT HAND PICTURE AND ME IN
PLENARY ISO TECHNICAL COMMITTEE
301 THAT IS A BUNCH OF I689 SO
JARGON FOR THE GROUP RESPONSIBLE
FOR DEVELOPING ISO50,001. THERE
IS A GROUP OF STANDARDS OUT
THERE AND WHAT I FOUND THROUGH
MY OWN EXPERIENCE DOING
LABORATORY RESEARCH AND GETTING
ENGAGED IN MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY BROADLY
ACROSS FEDERAL AND MANUFACTURING
AND COMMERCIAL SPACE IS
TECHNOLOGIES DEVELOPED IN THE
LABORATORY ARE GREAT AND AWESOME
AND NEEDED AND CAN TAKE A LONG
TIME TO COME TO MARKET AND
CREATE IMPACT AND WHEREAS
ENGAGING WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE
OPERATING ENERGY-USING SYSTEMS
AND FACILITIES AND BRINGING THEM
TOGETHER IN A WAY TO UNDERSTAND
HOW TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE ENERGY
AND ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AND
OTHER RESOURCES CAN CREATE
CHANGE TODAY AND CAN CREATE
SYSTEMS AND STRUCTURES THAT
ENABLE PEOPLE TO OBTAIN
RESOURCES THAT THEY NEED TO
ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES THAT EITHER
THEY HAVE SET FORWARD OR HAVE
BEEN IMPOSED ON THEM AND WHEN AN
EXECUTIVE ORDER OR NEW
LEGISLATION OR NEW RULE COMES
OUT FROM AN AGENCY SAYING YOU
SHALL REDUCE X BY Y, HAVING A
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IN PLACE IS AN
EXTREMELY POWERFUL TOOL TO BRING
A WHOLE ORGANIZATION OR SUBSET
OF PEOPLE TOGETHER TO UNDERSTAND
HOW YOU ARE COLLECTIVELY GOING
TO MEET THOSE OBLIGATIONS.
SO, MY TRANSITION FROM
LABORATORY RESEARCHER SHOOTING
LASERS AT FLAMES TO HELPING
CRAFT EFFECTIVE AND ACCESSIBLE
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS HAS BEEN A
BIT OF A LONG JOURNEY AND ONE
I'M REALLY PROUD OF AND ONE I
THINK I HOPEFULLY WILL BE ABLE
TO SHARE WITH YOU WAYS OF DOING
YOUR WORK IN A WAY THAT IS MORE
EFFECTIVE AND BRINGS YOU
RESOURCES YOU NEED TO BE
SUCCESSFUL.
I WILL BACK UP A LITTLE BIT AND
TALK ABOUT WHAT A MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM AND BUSINESS PROCESSES
THAT WE TALK ABOUT AND WHAT IS
THE OBJECTIVE OF HAVING THEM.
LOTS OF TIMES IT SOUNDS LIKE
EYE-ROLLING BUREAUCRATIC
PAPERWORK AND BUNCH OF MEETINGS
SHOWING UP ON MY CALENDAR TO
SHOW A HEADACHE THAT DOESN'T DO
ANYTHING TANGIBLE AND DOESN'T
END UP SAVING ENERGY AND
REDUCING EMISSIONS IN THE
FACILITY ITSELF AND WHY WE HAVE
TO DO DOCUMENTATION AND WORK AND
GOAL IS NOT TO CREATE
BUREAUCRACY BUT GOAL IS TO
CREATE A CLEAR AND EFFECTIVE
PROCESS TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS
YOU WILL HEAR FRAMEWORK LICK --
AND YOU WILL HEAR THINGS ABOUT
DRINGING TEAMS TOGETHER AND WHAT
CONCEPTS ARE IS THAT YOU ARE
CREATING A MAP. YOU ARE
CREATING A MAP FOR YOUR
ORGANIZATION CREATING CLEAR
ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES AND
IDENTIFIES RESOURCES AND TOOLS
YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL AND
AVOID YOUR RISK YOUR
ORGANIZATION MAY FACE WHEN
TRYING TO ACHIEVE ITS OWN
OBJECTIVES OR OBJECTIVES THAT
HAVE BEEN PROVIDED TO IT AND ONE
BIG THING THAT IS REALLY
IMPORTANT WITH A MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM IS TO CREATE CLEAR
BOUNDARIES.
THAT IS TO AVOID SCOPE CREEP.
MORE SUCCESSFUL YOU ARE, PEOPLE
MIGHT START TO WANT TO ADD ON
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS OR
CONVERSATIONS OR MEET WITH X AND
Y AND Z GROUP ALSO AND POINT OF
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS TO CREATE A
STRUCTURE THAT IS STREAMLINED
AND EFFICIENT SAYING WE HAVE TO
GET TO THIS OBJECTIVE AND WHAT
ARE THINGS WE HAVE TO DO AND WHO
ARE PEOPLE WE HAVE TO TALK TO
AND WHAT IS THE SYSTEM WE WILL
FOLLOW TO MABLG SURE ACTIONS WE
ARE TAKING ARE SUCCESSFUL AND
RESULT IN IMPROVEMENT TO THOSE
OBJECTIVES.
SO, ALWAYS KEEPING IN MIND WHEN
PEOPLE TALK ABOUT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS AND KEEPING YOUR HEAD UP
AND THIS IS A TOOL TO KEEP US
MOVING FORWARD EFFICIENTLY AND
IF STARTING TO FEEL LIKE
ENORMOUS BUREAUCRATIC PROCESS
NOT DELIVERING RESULTS IT IS A
GOOD TIME TO PUT YOUR HAND UP
SAYING LET'S MAKE SURE WE ARE
USING THIS TO MEET OUR
OBJECTIVES NO THE JUST CREATING
A BUNCH OF PAPERWORK OR ANOTHER
CHECKLIST OF THINGS TO DO THAT
DON'T ULTIMATELY RESULT IN
SUCCESS FOR OUR ORGANIZATION.
AS A RESEARCHER AT A NATIONAL
LABORATORY THAT HAS GOTTEN TO
KNOW THOSE THAT WORK AT FEDERAL
FACILITIES, I'M AT AWE OF THE
NUMBER OF THINGS YOU ALL
COLLECTIVELY HAVE TO MANAGE AND
REPORT ON.
IT IS A LOT.
THERE IS WATER REQUIREMENTS AND
THERE IS ENERGY REQUIREMENTS AND
RESILIENCY REQUIREMENTS AND AIR
QUALITY EMISSION REQUIREMENTS
AND PROCUREMENT REQUIREMENTS AND
THERE IS A REQUIREMENT FOR
EVERYTHING.
THESE ALL HAVE TO BE MANAGED AT
FEDERAL FACILITIES AND SITES TO
BE SURE OF COMPLIANCE.
NOW, THAT COULD BE A REALLY
DAUNTING THING ON A SURFACE.
THAT IS SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO
BE LOOKED AT FROM AN
ORGANIZATIONAL POINT OF VIEW
THEORETICALLY AND OFTEN TIMES IS
HANTDED DOWN TO INDIVIDUALS
RESPONSIBLE FOR ACHIEVING
OUTCOMES BUT ARE NOT NECESSARILY
GIVEN TOOLS AND RESOURCES IN
PROCESSES TO ACHIEVE THOSE
OBJECTIVES.
WHAT DOES THAT LOOK LIKE THEN IN
PRACTICE?
LOOKS LIKE YOU HAVE A BUNCH OF
SILOS SOMETIMES IN ORGANIZATIONS
THAT DON'T NECESSARILY TALK TO
EACH OTHER.
BECAUSE THE RESPONSIBILITY FOR
ENERGY IS WITHIN THE PUBLIC
WORKS FACILITIES OR ENGINEERING
DEPARTMENT AND WHEREAS THEIR
RESPONSIBILITY -- MIGHT BE HOW
[AUDIO BREAKING UP CLOEBLTH
DEPARTMENT AND THERE ARE
INTERDEPENDENCIES BETWEEN THESE
REQUIREMENTS. ENVIRONMENTAL
REQUIREMENT MIGHT BE EFFECTED BY
ENERGY REQUIREMENTS WHICH WILL
CERTAINLY BE EFFECTED BY
RESILIENCY REQUIREMENTS AND
CREATES LOTS OF DIFFERENT
STAKEHOLDERS WHO MIGHT NOT HAVE
LOTS OF COHESION IN-BETWEEN ONE
ANOTHER WITH CONVERSATION WITH
ONE ANOTHER AND CREATES VARIOUS
EXPECTATIONS TO BE MET AND
MANAGED AND YOU CAN END UP WITH
A LOT OF PEOPLE ACROSS AN AGENCY
OR A FACILITY TRYING TO MOVE IN
MULTIPLE DIRECTIONIN
DEPENDIENTLY WITH AN IDEA WHAT
THEY ARE DOING IS EFFECTING
OTHER PEOPLE AND THEY DON'T HAVE
NECESSARILY AN INTEGRATED
COHESIVE APPROACH TO ACHIEVING
ENTIRE FACILITIES OR AGENCY'S
OBJECTIVES AND COME UP WITH A
SYSTEM NOT ENTIRELY IN LOCK-STEP
BUT IS AWARE AND COMMUNICATES
APPROPRIATELY ACROSS DIFFERENT
ACTIONS AND PROCESSES.
YOU CAN END UP WITH REALLY GOOD
INTENDING PEOPLE AT DIFFERENT
FACILITIES AND AGENCIES CREATING
MULTIPLE DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS THAT DON'T REALLY CLICK
TOGETHER AND DON'T REALLY SPEAK
AND ADD VALUE TO ONE ANOTHER AND
SOMETIMES THEY CAN COME INTO
CONFLICT.
ABOUT YOU IT THAT CAN BE A
MANAGED PROCESS.
SOMETIMES IT IS OKAY YOU HAVE
DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS.
THESE THINGS ARE MULTIPLYING
LIKE RABBITS AROUND AND MIGHT
LOOK AND FEEL KIND OF SIMILAR
BUT THERE WAS NEVER UNDERLYING
PURPOSE OR COMMON IALITY TO
DEVELOP TO SPEAK TO WHY
DIFFERENT PROCESSES AND
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS EXIST IN THE
SAME SPACE AND THEY MIGHT HAVE
DIFFERENT, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT
REQUIREMENTS THAT ACTUALLY ARE
VERY SIMILAR BUT CREATE TWO
DIFFERENT PROCESSES WITHIN THE
SAME ORGANIZATION.
THERE IS LOTS OF OBVIOUS
OPPORTUNITIES FOR COMING
TOGETHER TO DO THINGS IN A
LITTLE MORE OF A SIMPLE WAY.
ALSO, ONE OF THE HESITATIONS WE
FIND WITH PEOPLE WHO ARE
MANAGING DIFFERENT PARTS OF A
FACILITY IS THEY ARE VERY
RIGHTLY SO PROTECTIVE OF THE
IDEA THAT THEY HAVE THEIR TOPIC
AND THEIR ASPECT THAT THEY ARE
FOCUSING ON.
I'M FOCUSING ON AIR QUALITY
EMISSIONS AND YOU RESILIENCY
PEOPLE, I HAVE MY SPECIAL NEEDS.
YOUR SPECIAL NEEDS ARE DIFFERENT
THAN MINE, SO WE SHOULD JUST DO
OUR OWN DIFFERENT THINGS.
WHEN YOU THINK UNDER HOW A
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM COULD WORK
EFFECTIVELY, YOU WILL SEE LOTS
OF COMMONALITIES THAT COULD BE
LEVERAGED AND CREATE LOTS OF
EFFICIENCIES FOR NOT ONLY THE
AGENCY OR FACILITY AS A WHOLE
BUT INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE WHO ARE
WORKING ON DEVELOPING AND
IMPLEMENTING AND MAINTAINING
THOSE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS.
SO, AGAIN, GOING BACK TO THESE
MORE PRETTY HIGH-LEVEL
SIMPLISTIC CONCEPTS OF SOMETHING
LIKE A PLAN DUE CHECKED ACT
CYCLE. IF EVERYONE ATED A
FACILITY OR AGENCY ENGAGED AT A
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AGREES THIS IS
A STRONG FRAMEWORK MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS YOU AS AN AGENCY TAKES
THE STEP FORWARD HARMONIZING
SYSTEMS LEVERAGING MULTIPLE
REASONS FOR PEOPLE AND GENERIC
SPECIFIC OR BRAND LABEL IB
PROFIN YOU FIND AT THE GROCERY
STORE AND ACTIVE INGREDIENTS IT
THAT WORK EFFECTIVELY AND
SERVICE MIGHT BE DIFFERENT LIKE
A DIFFERENT CAPSULE OR FLAVORING
OR DIFFERENT BRANDING THAT IS
SPECIFIC FOR DIFFERENT NEEDS.
SO, WHERE DOES ISOPLUG INTO
THIS? INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
ORGANIZATION IS EFFECTIVE IN
MAKING LOTS OF DIFFERENT
STANDARDS.
IN FACT, THEY HAVE OVER 50
DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
STANDARDS ALONE PLUS THOUSANDS
OF SUPPORTING STAND YARDS,
GUIDANCE OR OTHER REQUIREMENT
STANDARDS AND TOPIC STAARDS
STANDARDS THAT CREATES PAPERWORK
AND THAT WAS DEVELOPED IN
ISOLATION BY ITS OWN TECHNICAL
COMMITTEE LIKE I SHOWED YOU AT
THE VERY TOP OF US SITTING
AROUND A ROOM NOT IN
CONVERSATION WITH OTHER
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM STANDARDS
DEVELOP HERS AND CERTAINLY
WITHOUT A CENTRAL GUIDING
FRAMEWORK AND INTERNATIONAL
STANDARD ORGANIZATION REALIZE
THE THIS IS NOT IDEAL AS A GROUP
PROMOTING CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT
AND STANDARDIZATION AND THEY
REALIZED IT PROBABLY NEEDS TO
HAVE A STANDARD OF ITS OWN
AROUND WHAT A MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
LOOKS LIKE AND BASIS ON WHICH IT
IS BUILT AND WENT THROUGH A LONG
PROCESS WORKING WITH
STAKEHOLDERS AND IDENTIFIED BY
DOING SO, FOR THE END USERS AND
FOR THE AGENCIES AND FACILITIES
THEY COULD OPTIMIZE A RESOURCE
USE AND REDUCE COST OF
IMPLEMENTING AND MAINTAINING
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND
STREAMLINE PROCESSES AND
PROCEDURES AND WHAT IT TAKES TO
EDUCATE PEOPLE HOW TO USE A
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND WHAT IT IS
INCREASE EFFICIENCY SYSTEM AND
ACHIEVEMENT OF OBJECTIVES AT
ORGANIZATIONS AND AVOID LOTS OF
DUPLICATIONS AND YOU DON'T NEED
FIVE CORRECTIVE ACTION SYSTEMS
NECESSARILY OR NECESSARILY NEED
FIVE DIFFERENT INTERFACES WITH
PROCUREMENT GROUP SAYING
DIFFERENT THINGS IF THERE IS
COMMONALITIES AND MINIMIZES
AMOUNT OF EXTERNAL AUDIT
DISRUPTION AND EXTERNAL AUDIT
MIGHT NOT BE AS IMPORTANT OR
REQUIRED FOR A FEDERAL AGENCY
DEPENDING ON THE TOPIC BUT FOR
PRIVATE COMPANIES AROUND THE
WORLD, EXTERNAL AUDITS ARE
REQUIRED BY LAW OR CORPORATE
REQUIREMENTS AND ARE EXTREMELY
DISRUPTIVE HAVING SOMEONE COME
IN AND KIND OF DISRUPTING
OPERATIONS FOR THREE TO 5 DAYS
POKING AROUND TO SEE IF YOU ARE
IN COMPLIANCE WITH VARIOUS
DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
STRUCTURES THAT RESULTED IN THE
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE.
AGAIN, NOWADAYS SOMETIMES
REFERRED TO AS HARMONIZED
APPROACH AND HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE IS DISCOVERED BY
TIP-TOP ISOMANAGEMENT BOARD THAT
IS IMPORTANT TO IS OWE. AND
COVERS ALL ISO ACTIVITIES FOUND
IN AN AR CANE DOCUMENT RS ANNEX
1 AND WHAT THIS DOCUMENT SAYS IS
SHARES CONCEPTS, TERMS, AND
STRUCTURES THAT ALL ISO
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS SHOULD FOLLOW
AND PROVIDES FRAMEWORK FOR
CHANGE THAT WE WILL GET INTO
LACER AND GOAL WAS TO GENERALIZE
FRAMEWORK WITH LIMITED ABILITY
AND TOPIC-SPECIFIC MODIFICATIONS
AND WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT
RESILIENCY TAKES DIFFERENT
MANAGEMENT AND ENERGY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS ABOUT YOU
DON'T WANT TO GIVE LITTLE
TECHNICAL COMMITTEES FRAMEWORK
THAT THEY GROW DIFVERGE ENTTHAT
INTENTIONALITY OF FRAMEWORK IS
LOST AND THIS WAS PUBLISHED IN
2012 A WHILE AGO NOW AND ROLLED
OUT IN WAVES AS EXISTING ISO
MANAGEMENT STANDARDS WERE
REVISED ON NORMAL REVISION
TIMELINE AND MOST ALL AND WE
WILL GET TO THE LIST LATER ISO
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS STANDARDS OF
NOTE HAVE BEEN PUSHED INTO
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE RECENTLY OR
IN THE PAST FEW YEARS AND THERE
IS A NUMBER STILL WORKING ON
MOVING IN THAT DIRECTION AND
WHAT HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE HAS
STRUCTURE TO IT? IT HAS 10
DECLARED SECTIONS OF IT AND
TOPICS THAT EVERY MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS STANDARD IN THIS FORMAT
WILL HAVE.
THE FIRST THREE SCOPE NORMATIVES
REFERENCES AND TERM DEFINITIONS
ARE GREYED OUT AND A LITTLE LESS
CUSTOMIZED IN A WAY THAT IS
REALLY MEANINGFUL AND TERMS AND
DEFINITIONS ARE PEDANTIC AND
BORING AND EXTREMELY DIFFERENT
TO THESE STANDARDS AND FOCUSSING
ON SECTIONS 4 THROUGH 10 AND GUT
THAT SPEAKS TO WHAT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM ACHIEVES AND COMMON
STRUCTURE IT PUTS FORWARD THAT
ORGANIZATIONS CAN MEET
OBJECTIVES IN DEVELOPING A
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AS WELL AS
OBJECTIVES OF THAT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM REDUCE ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACTS AND REDUCING CLIMATE
EMISSIONS AND IMPROVING
RESILIENCY AND CONTEXT OF THE
ORGANIZATION LEADERSHIP PLANNING
AND SUPPORT AND OPERATION AND
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION AND
IMPROVEMENT AND IF YOU STOPPED
RIGHT HERE AND TAKE THIS ONE
SCREEN AWAY AND SAY I DON'T WANT
TO DO ISO STANDARD BUT DEVELOP
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AT OUR
FACILITY OR AGENCY THAT AT LEAST
HAVE A COMMON UNDERSTANDING OF
STRUCTURE, THIS IS A GREAT PLACE
TO START.
IT SAYS WHO ARE WE?
WHAT IS -- WHAT IS OUR
LEADERSHIP HAVE TO DO?
WHAT IS OUR STRUCTURE FOR
PLANNING FOR SUCCESS AND WHAT
RESOURCES DO WE NEED AND HOW DO
WE PUT IT INTO A PLACE?
HOW DO WE CHECK TO SEE IF WE ARE
ACHIEVING RESULTS AND WHAT DO WE
IDENTIFY AS WHAT WE NEED TO DO
TO IMPROVE OVERALL MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM AND OUTCOMES WE WANT TO
ACHIEVE.
EVEN JUST WITHOUT AN ISO
STANDARD ITSELF AND HAVING A
COMMON FRAMEWORK ACROSS AN
ORGANIZATION WITHIN THIS
HIGH-LEVEL TABLE OF CONTENTS
LEVEL CAN BE VERY BENEFICIAL AND
DIVING IN A LITTLE BIT AND I
WON'T READ SLIDES IN DETAILS AND
GIVING A FLAVOR FOR WHAT ISO
INTENDS AND WHY THEY HAVE
DIFFERENT SECTIONS AND CONTEXTS
OF THE ORGANIZATION.
THIS IS THE BIG UP-FRONT SECTION
THAT SAYS STEP BACK AND SAY WE
ARE NOT HERE AS AN AGENCY OR
FACILITY JUST TO MANAGE
ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AND WE ARE
HERE TO DO WHAT?
WHY ARE WE HERE?
WHAT ARE THINGS WE DO THAT
EFFECT US THAT CAN EITHER
POSITIVELY OR NEGATIVELY
POTENTIALLY EFFECT OUR
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM THAT WE ARE
DEVELOPING FOR THIS TOPIC.
SO, THE WHOLE STRUCTURE IS
GROUNDED IN A WHO ARE WE?
NOT JUST DIVING IN NARROWLY INTO
THE NARROW LITTLE TOPIC AND
RECOGNIZES THAT YOUR ACTIVITIES
EXIST IN A LARGER CONTEXT.
LEADERSHIP, THIS IS IN ALL
RESEARCH STUDY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
IMPLEMENTATION THIS IS A BIG
STUMBLING BLOCK WE SEE
LEADERSHIP SEEING THIS IS
WONDERFUL AND GO DO THAT AND
TURN AROUND NOT PROVIDING
RESOURCES THAT ARE BOTH
FINANCIAL OR PERSONNEL OR OWN
SUPPORT AND COMMUNICATION TO
ENSURE SUCCESS.
AND SO THE LEADERSHIP SECTION
REALLY DEFINES TO THIS TOP
MANAGEMENT [AUDIO BREAKING UP].
YOUR AGENCY WHO THAT IS SAYS
NEED TO BE ENGAGED AND WHERE
THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE ENGAGED
AND THEY DON'T HAVE TO BE THERE
EVERY DAY NECESSARILY WORKING ON
THIS TOPIC AND THEY DELEGATE
LOTS OF RESPONSIBILITIES AND
EMPHASIZING THAT MANAGEMENT HAS
TO ENGAGED APPROPRIATELY AND
DOING RESOURCES AS THEY ARE
REQUIRED TO ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES
OF THE ORGANIZATION.
PLANNING, THIS IS THE BIG BEEFY
SECTION OF THE HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE THAT GETS DOWN TO
NITTY GRITTY DETAILS WHAT WE
WILL DO TO SET UP MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM AND WHAT ARE ACTIONS AND
PROCESS TO FOLLOW TO ACHIEVE
RESULTS TANGIBLY ON THE GROUND
THAT WE HOPE TO MEET OUR
OBJECTIVES AND WHAT ENERGY
SAVING OPPORTUNITIES AND WHAT
RESILIENCY ACTIVITIES AND WHAT
IMPROVEMENTS WE WILL MAKE TO
REDUCE WATER USE AT OUR FACILITY
AND WHAT IS THE PROCESS BY WHICH
THAT, THAT CYCLE OF IMPROVEMENT
WILL BE PUT IN PLACE.
AND WHO ARE THE PEOPLE THAT NEED
TO COME TO THE TABLE FROM WHAT
DIFFERENT PARTS OF OUR
ORGANIZATION TO SUPPORT THOSE
ACTIVITIES?
SUPPORT, ACTUALLY, I BLED INTO
SUPPORT A LITTLE HERE AND GOT
AHEAD OF MYSELF AND WHAT
RESOURCES AND PEOPLE ARE AND
FINANCIAL MEANS AND CONTRACTS
THAT ARE NEEDED TO ESTABLISH
IMPLEMENT AND MAINTAIN AND
IMPROVE THAT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
AND PURPOSE OF MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
IS ACHIEVING OUTCOMES AND NOT
JUST FOCUSES HOW WE MAKE SURE
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM LIVES BUT
IMPROVES AND SO WE ARE ABLE TO
ACHIEVE INTENDED OUTCOMES AND
OPERATION, THIS IS THAT
DEPLOYMENT MECHANISM. HOWEVER,
WAYS THAT WE WILL ACTUALLY GO
IMPLEMENT THINGS ON THE GROUND
THAT WE NEED TO DO BOTH AT THE
OPERATIONAL AND ORGANIZATIONAL
LEVEL, AGAIN, SPEAKS TO IF YOU
ARE FOCUSED ON ENERGY
MANAGEMENT, YOU MIGHT FEEL ALONE
OR IN YOUR FACILITIES GROUP OR
IN YOUR PUBLIC WORKS GROUP.
THAT IS WHERE OPERATIONAL CHANGE
MIGHT COME FROM AND NEEDS TO
EXPAND OUT TO THE WHOLE
ORGANIZATION IN TERMS OF
PROCUREMENT AND DESIGN AND TOP
MANAGEMENT AND OTHER TYPES OF
OPERATIONS.
PERFORMANCE EVALUATION, THIS IS
LOOKING YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR
AND HOW WILL YOU MONITOR AND
MEASURE AND ANALYZE TO MAKE SURE
YOU ARE ACHIEVING YOUR INTENDED
RESULTS AND IN REDUCING
EMISSIONS AND IMPROVING
RESILIENCY AND IMPROVEMENT AND
THIS IS A SECTION THAT COULD BE
A BIT NEBULOUS BUT AT END OF THE
DAY STRESSES WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT
VERSUS IMPROVEMENT AND THERE
MIGHT BE UPS AND DOWNS ALONG THE
WAYS BUT HAVE A LONGER VIEW OF
CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT VERSEOUS
CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT BRINGING
A GIGANTIC STRESS ON
ORGANIZATIONS TO SHOW YEAR AFTER
YEAR QUARTER AND QUARTER GOING
UP AND UP AND CONTINUAL
IMPROVEMENT ALLOWS TO TAKE A
BREATH AND WE HAVE A GOAL AND
OWE NTTIVE AND UNDERSTAND
SYSTEMS THAT ACHIEVE THAT GOAL
AND NOT GET HYPERFOCUSED ON DAY
IN AND DAY OUT AND ISO IS NOT
VERY KEEN ON CUSTOMIZING THIS
PROCESS AND STRONGLY DISCOURAGED
WAYS TO DO IT FOR ISO
COMMUNITIES AND THAT IS KEEPING
THINGS CONSISTENT AND PROVEN
HELPFUL AS MEMBER OF TECHNICAL
COMMITTEE IT IS SOMETIMES
FRUSTRATING BUT IS EFFECTIVE AND
20ISO MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS USING
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE NOW AND
IMPORTANT ONES AND 9 THOUSAND
FOR QUALITY AND 14 ON
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND 45
IS OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH AND
SAFETY AND 46 ON WATER
EFFICIENCY MANAGEMENT AND ALL
THESE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS FROM
ISO FOL OWE HE THAT SAME
10-POINT TABLE OF CONTENTS
STRUCTURE LANGUAGE TERMINOLOGY.
THERE IS FUN ONES I ADDED AT THE
BOTTOM. ISO HAS A STANDARD FOR
EVERYTHING INCLUDING ADVENTURE
TOURISM AND SUSTAINABLE
TRACEABILITY OF COCOA BEANS AND
POINTING OUT 50,001 NAVIGATOR
USES THIS HIGH-LEVEL 7 TECHNICAL
TOPICS STRUCTURE LISTED AT THE
TOP OF THE NAVIGATOR'S BAR AND
THAT AGAIN HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE
IN FEDERAL AGENCIES AND
FACILITIES THAT IF YOU USE ISO
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS STANDARDS
SHOULD FOLLOW HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE AND PROBABLY DO AND
CHANGES LANGUAGE AND STANDARD
ITSELF AND STRUCTURE OF IT AND
IMPLEMENTATION OF MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM WON'T CHANGE A LOT. IT
IS ABOUT A MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
MEETING OBJECTIVES AND
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE ADAPTED FOR
NON-ISO BASED MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
COMMON FRAMEWORK COMMON ELEMENTS
AND COMMON USE OF TOOLS AND
PROCESSES AND 50,001 NAVIGATOR
PROVIDES STARTING PLACE IF YOU
AND YOUR FACILITY ARE INTERESTED
IN USING COMMONLY-BASED
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS SEEING
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE PUT INTO
PRACTICE IN TANGIBLE WAYS IF YOU
USE IT COULD BE USED TO MANAGE
OTHER THINGS LIKE WATER USE OR
RESILIENCY OR AIR EMISSIONS.
WITH THAT, I THANK YOU FOR YOUR
TIME AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR
QUESTIO
QUESTIONS.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, PETER.
I APPRECIATE THE PRESENTATION
AND I -- THE HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE IS I THINK SOMETHING
THAT IS VERY POWERFUL FOR USE IN
THE SECTOR AND I APPRECIATE YOUR
REVIEW OF IT.
I HAVEN'T RECEIVED QUESTIONS IN
THE LIVE FEEDBACK AND WILL
REMIND FOLKS IN THE VIDEO CAST
TOOL YOU MIGHT SEE IN THE BOTTOM
LEFT CORNER THERE IS A SEND
LIVE. CLICK THAT BUTTON
[ECHOING FEEDBACK].
>> COULD YOU PLEASE MUTE
YOURSELF?
WE ARE GETTING FEEDBACK.
>> TO UNMUTE YOURSELF, PRESS
STAR 6.
>> OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
WE ACTUALLY GOT ONE QUESTION
FROM [INAUDIBLE]. CAN YOU SEE
IT IN THE CHART?
>> YES, I CAN. THERE IT IS.
>> A QUESTION IN THE CHAT.
THANKS FOR THE PRESENTATION.
SHOULD WE BE LOOKING TO MOVE
AWAY FROM CONTRACTUAL
OBLIGATIONS SO SYSTEMS R-
ORGANICALLY GROWN AND IMBEDDED
NATURALLY INTO THE CULTURE AND
PRACTICES?
>> NOT KNOWING SPECIFICALLY WHAT
IS REFERENCED ABOUT I
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS, I WILL
SAY THAT THE MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
STRUCTURE. THERE IS A LOT OF
ECHO FEEDBACK GOING ON IF
SOMEONE IS NOT MUTED AND
CREATING THAT LITTLE FEEDBACK
LOOP.
THERE. IT IS GONE.
NOT SURE WHAT CONTRACTUALS IS
INDICATING BUT MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS THEMSELVES COULD BE
INTERNALLY DEVELOPED WITHOUT
BEING A CONTRACT, NECESSARILY,
BUT HAVING A CLEARLY DEFINED
PROCESS TO MAYBE FEEL
CONTRACTUAL IS VERY USEFUL WHEN
DEALING WITH LET'S SAY EXTERNAL
STAKEHOLDERS OR CONTRACTED
PARTIES COMING TO MANAGE
DIFFERENT THINGS FOR A FACILITY
BE IT IN ENERGY REDUCTIONS OR
SAVINGS OR MAINTENANCE OF
DIFFERENT EQUIPMENT OR WHAT NOT
AND HAVING A SYSTEM LIKE THIS
THAT YOU PLUG INTO EXTERNAL
PARTIES INTO IS EXTREMELY
POWERFUL THAT WE HAVE SEEN IN
PRACTICE THAT THE HIGH-LEVEL
STRUCTURE SPEAKS SPECIFICALLY TO
OUTSOURCE ACTIVITIES AS A WAY TO
APPROPRIATELY ENGAGE CONTRACTORS
AND TO SHOW THEM THAT AS PART OF
THE CONTRACT THAT THEY WILL BE
SUPPORTING AN ORGANIZATION WITH
THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR BEING
RESPONSIVE TO THE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM PROCESS THAT IS IN PLACE
AS WELL AS IN -- NOT JUST IN
ACTING AS INDEPENDENT LOAN
ACTORS IN WHATEVER PORTION OF
THE FACILITY THAT THEY ARE
ACTING IN.
>> EXCELLENT. THANK YOU. NEXT
QUESTION IS FROM PAUL KELLIS.
DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO COMBINE
ISO14001 AND 50001 OR JUST HAVE
ONE?
>> FANTASTIC QUESTION. IT IS
ONE THAT WE HAVE SEEN LOTS OF
ORGANIZATIONS DO AND ANSWER
DIFFERENTLY FOR THEMSELVES
DEPENDING ON THEIR INTENDED
OUTCOMES.
IN THE CASE OF FEDERAL
MANAGEMENT OF ENERGY AND
ENVIRONMENT, I WOULD SAY THAT
YOU ARE PROBABLY LOOKING AT A
CASE WHERE YOU WANT TO BE
LOOKING AT BOTH.
ONE, BECAUSE OF THE -- WE ARE
GETTING THAT ECHO AGAIN.
>> [ECHO FEEDBACK].
>> THERE IT IS. BOTH BECAUSE OF
THE ENERGY ACT OF 2020
SPECIFICALLY CALLS OUT ISO50,001
AND 50,000 PROCESS FOR
ORGANIZATIONS TOOLS TO LOOK AT
AND SEE IF IT IS APPROPRIATE FOR
FEDERAL AGENCIES TO DO SO AND IS
A STRUCTURE THAT IS VERY -- IT
USES COMMON PLATFORM AND HAS
TOPIC-SPECIFIC DIFFERENCES THAT
ARE VERY POWERFUL AND IT KEEPS A
VERY KEEN FOCUS ON ENERGY-USING
SYSTEMS AND SPECIFIC ENERGY USES
AND MONITORING MEASUREMENT OF
THEM AND HAS A MUCH MORE
TANGIBLE RELATIONSHIP TO HOW
ENERGY IS CURRENT WILL I
MANAGED.
14,001 IS BROAD IN OPENING
ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS AT LARGE
AND IT HAS IMPROVED A LOT TO
FOCUS ON PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT
THAN JUST MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
ACTIONS THEMSELVES AND HAS BEEN
A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF MORE
MOVEMENT TOWARDS ONE ANOTHER
BECAUSE OF HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE
AND SUCCESS OF HAVING
PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT
REQUIREMENTS THAT ARE 50,001
ORIGINATIONS AND EACH AGENCY
NEEDS TO LOOK AT ITSELF SAYING
WHAT ARE MY OBJECTIVES AND IF
YOU HAVE A FIRM ENERGY AND
CARBON EMISSIONS REQUIREMENT
THAT WILL BE REALLY EFFECTED BY
ENERGY.
[AUDIO BREAKING UP].
IF YOU HAVE OTHER THINGS YOU ARE
TRYING TO MANAGE SUCH AS AIR
QUALITY, 14,001 HAS THAT AND
STRUCTURES AND THEY ARE A LITTLE
DUSTY AND PUT IN PLACE AND NO
THE USED EFFICIENTLY IN THE PAST
FEW YEARS IS GREAT IS WONDERFUL
STARTING BLOCKS TO HAVE 14,001
OR 50,001 SYSTEM ON.
>> GREAT. FOLLOWING UP WITH MR.
[INAUDIBLE] QUESTION. HE SAID
OR WANTED TO CLARIFY IN SOME
SYSTEMS ARE IMPLEMENTED BECAUSE
FEDERAL AGENCY PUTS THEM IN THE
CONTRACT AND WHAT HE MET BY
CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND WE
HAVE A QUESTION FROM MR. TRAVIS
GILES.
DO YOU SEE IT IN THE CHAT?
>> TAKE A LOOK.
>> THANK YOU FOR THE
PRESENTATION. CAN YOU TALK
ABOUT HOW YOU SEE NEPA FITTING
IN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM STRUCTURE
WE USE AS CORE COMPONENT OF
ISO14,001 STRUCTURE DO YOU SEE
NEPA FITTING INTO MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS STRUCTURE. THAT IS A
GOOD QUESTION. I WORK IN NEPA
AS WELL.
>> I WILL SAY ONE A GENERAL
COMMENT AND HOPE TO PHONE A
FRIEND AND GET AN NEPA EXPERT
THAT MIGHT WANT TO SPEAK A
LITTLE MORE AND A CONFUSING AND
POWERFUL PART OF THE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM STRUCTURES IS FLEXIBILITY
AND OPENNESS AND LOTS OF TIMES
WE WILL HAVE PEOPLE READ THEM
AND WHAT IS THE POINT OF THIS?
IT DOESN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO.
ANSWER IS I KNOW. IT IS HARD
AND YOU WANT A DEFINITIVE ANSWER
AND DEFINITIVE GO DO THIS TODAY
ANSWER.
POINT OF MANAGEMENT SYSTEM WHEN
WRITING MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
STANDARD FOREI ENTIRE WORLD IS
OPENNESS THAT ALLOWS YOU TO
INCORPORATE THINGS LIKE NEPA
APPROPRIATELY INTO THAT PROCESS.
IT IS NOT -- IT IS NOT THAT IT
IS EXCLUSIVE OR EXPLICITLY
INCLUSIVE OF ANY TYPE OF REVIEW
OR REQUIREMENT.
BUT THAT THE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
CREATES A STRUCTURE BY WHICH YOU
LOOK AT YOURSELF SAYING I HAVE
THESE REQUIREMENTS AND THIS IS
WHERE THEY CAN SLOT INTO
CONTINUAL IMPROVEMENT PLANNED
DUE CHECK PROCESS TO EMPLOY TO
ACHIEVE OBJECTIVES.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR
YOUR TIME.
>> WELL, THANKS.
>> OKAY.
>> I HAVE TO WRAP US UP.
WE ARE A LITTLE OVERTIME.
>> OKAY.
>> ENJOYED YOUR PRESENTATION,
PETER. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> THANKS, PETER.
>> VIRTUAL APPLAUSE.
>> ANOTHER QUESTION FROM MITCH
TAYLOR I WILL E-MAIL TO YOU?
>> YES.
>> THANK YOU, MARK, FOR YOUR
ASSISTANCE WITH THE CHAT AND
QUESTION FUNCTIONALITY.
NOW, WE WILL TURN TO THE NEXT
SPEAKER JIMMY PARISH FROM DOA TO
TELL US A LITTLE ABOUT HIS
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE WITH
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AT DLA.
PLEASE, TAKE IT AWAY.
>> HELLO. CAN YOU -- CAN YOU
HEAR ME?
>> WE CAN HEAR YOU. YOU MAY
WANT TO MOVE OR YOUR SPEAKER OR
MUTE YOUR SPEAKER AND YOU ARE
CREATING SOME FEEDBACK.
>> OKAY. LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN
DO.
DO YOU WANT TO ACTUALLY -- I AM
IN ANOTHER CONFERENCE ROOM. IS
THAT ANY BETTER?
>> I THINK THAT SHOULD BE.
>> HELLO?
>> THANK YOU.
>> WOW.
>> YES. PLEASE GO AHEAD. CAN
YOU HEAR ME?
WE CAN HEAR YOU. PLEASE GO
AHEAD WHEN YOU ARE READY.
>> ENTER CONFERENCE FOLLOWED BY
POUND. YOU ARE NOW JOINING.
>> CAN YOU HAD HEAR US NOW?
>> I'M BACK. CAN YOU HEAR ME?
I'M GETTING A TERRIBLE -- I'M IN
A -- IN ANOTHER CONFERENCE ROOM
AND GETTING A TERRIBLE ECHO
RIGHT NOW.
>> YES. YOU HAVE TWO MUTE MICS
LIVE. ONE ON YOUR COMPUTER AND
ONE ON YOUR PHONE.
>> LET ME TRY SOMETHING.
THANK YOU.
GO AHEAD WHEN YOU ARE READY.
>> AM I OFF THE COMPUTER?
>> WE CAN HEAR YOU, YES.
>> SCLEBT. SORRY ABOUT THAT.
GOOD MORNING. I'M JIMMY PERISH
AND WORK FOR DEFENSE SUPPLY
CENTER IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, A
FAIRLY LARGE DOD FACILITY THAT
I'M HERE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT
REMS AND HOW WE USED REMS TO
WORK THROUGHOUT ITS LAST 17
YEA
YEARS.
>> DID THE CHART JUST CHANGE?
>> IT DID. IF YOU CAN PUT IT IN
FULL SCREEN MODE, THAT WOULD BE
HELPF
HELPFUL.
>> IS THAT BETTER?
>> YES. THANK YOU.
>> I'M GETTING DANGEROUS. I'M
SORRY.
OKAY. THIS IS REALLY -- WE WENT
OVER SLIGHTLY AND DON'T KNOW IF
YOU CAN READ AS WELL AS I THINK
MOST OF US CAN.
WE WILL TALK ABOUT WHO DLA IS
AND WHO I AM AND TALK ABOUT OUR
EMS JOURNEY.
AND HOW IT WAS IN THE BEGINNING
AND HOW THE VARIOUS CHANGES IN
PRESIDENTIAL ADMINISTRATIONS
HAVE KEPT US BUSY AND ADDING VAL
THE INSTALLATION AND GETTING
THROUGH PRESIDENT OBAMA AND
PRESIDENT TRUMP TO WHERE WE ARE
TODAY.
I DID -- I'M ACTUALLY IN
LEXINGTON, VIRGINIA AND
APOLOGIZE FOR SOMEWHAT OF A
CONVENIENCE OR NEW USE OF
EQUIPMENT. I DIDN'T REALLY HEAR
ALL OF WHAT READING A HAIR LINE
AND I'M A BIG ADVOCATE OF
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AND ESPECIALLY LIKE CERTIFIED
SYSTEMS.
I LIKE IMPARTIAL EXTERNAL LOOK
AT HOW WE ARE DOING BUSINESS.
BUT, I THINK THAT MAYBE THAT YOU
HEARD THAT, YOU KNOW, PETER
WOULD SAY THAT AN EMS AND ONE
BIG BENEFIT WE FOUND OUT FROM AN
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
IS IT IS YOUR SYSTEM AND DESIGN
AND BUILDING IT AS YOU SEE BEST.
THEN THIS IS A LITTLE DISCLAIMER
AND ALL CHARTS THAT FOLLOW ARE
NOT THE ANSWER TO -- THE ANSWER,
YOU KNOW, THE ANSWER TO ALL OF
THE QUESTIONS AND THEY ARE
ANSWERS TO HOW AN EMS SHOULD
WORK.
IT IS REALLY AN EXPLANATION OF
HOW THINGS WORKED FOR US AND
MAYBE JUST TO GET YOUR THOUGHTS
GOING AS TO HOW THINGS MIGHT
WORK FOR YOU.
DEFENSE LOGISTICS AGENCY, WE
SUPPLY THEM EVERYTHING.
EVERYTHING TO ALL PARTS OF THE
SERVICES INCLUDING THE SPACE
FORCE AND COAST GUARD.
THE DEFENSE SUPPLY CENTER,
RICHMOND, THAT IS ABOUT 8 MILES
SOUTH OF RICHMOND IS HOME TO
WHAT IS KNOWN AS DLA AVIATION
MEANING IF IT FLIES OR IS IN
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE THAT PARTS
ARE MANAGED AND SOME PARTS AND
SOME -- SOME LOCATIONS ARE
STORED AT RICHMOND VIRGINIA AND
SEEING HOW MANY MAJOR WEAPON
SYSTEMS WE SUPPORT AS WELL AS
THE PLATFORMS THEMSELVES AND
INSTALLATION IS 600 ACRES AND
SLIGHTLY MORE THAN 3,000
EMPLOYEES AND 80 BUILDINGS THAT
YOU CAN SEE THE HARSH STORAGE OR
AVAILABLE STORAGE SPACE AND
INITIAL STORAGE BUILT IN 1941
WAS [INAUDIBLE] STORAGE GOTTEN
JUST ENOUGH TIME CONTRACTING OR
CONTRACTORI
CONTRACTOR STORING -- THAT IS ME
AND I'M THE ONE WITH THE
WHISKERS AND HAVE BEEN WORKING
FOR THE GOVERNMENT FOR A GOOD
AMOUNT OF YEARS NEARLY 40 YEARS
AND ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
INSTALLATION AND MAKING SURE
THAT EVERYTHING RUNS ON
INSTALLATION IS RUNNING ON FULL
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AND 19
DIFFERENT PROGRAMS WITH HE
MANAGE TO INCLUDE ENVIRONMENTAL
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM OF WHICH I
HAVE A STAFF OF 7 THAT HELPS US.
LET'S GO BACK A LONG, LONG TIME
AGO.
YOU KNOW, I AM BACK WHEN I WAS A
YOUNGER PERSON AND PRESIDENT
CLINTON BACK IN APRIL -- ALMOST
21438 CREATING GOVERNMENT
THROUGH LEADERSHIP AND
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PRETTY
MUCH SAYING ENVIRONMENTAL
MANAGEMENT NEEDS TO BECOME A
PART OF HOW THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT DOES BUSINESS THAT IS
NOT JUST OPERATIONS ABOUT YOU IN
THE PLANNING ASPECT OF IT AND IN
OVERALL MANAGEMENT OF IT AND
EXECUTIVE ORDER YOU SEE WHERE WE
HAVE EMPHASIS AND ENVIRONMENTAL
COMPLIANCE LETTING PUBLIC KNOW
WHAT WE HAVE ON INSTALLATION AND
TRYING TO PREVENT POLLUTION AND
REDUCE TOXIC CHEMICALS AND
REDUCING OZONE-DEPLETING
SUBSTANCES AND SOUND
LANDSKASCAPING AND DOING THINGS
SMART ENVIRONMENT AND BUILDINGS
AND HOW WE BUILD LANDSCAPE
AROUND ALL OF THE BUILDINGS AND
ALL THAT.
EXECUTIVE ORDER PRESIDENT
CLINTON'S ORDER SAID BY END OF
2005 WE WOULD HAVE APPROPRIATE
AGENCY FACILITIES.
WE CHOSE TO IMPLEMENT FORMAL
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
AND HAD THAT SYSTEM REGISTERED
TO ISO14,001 YOU CAN SEE IN
NOVEMBER OF 2005. WE HAVE BEEN
OR MAINTAINED THAT CERTIFICATION
FOR THE LAST 17 YEARS AND ARE
QUITE PROUD OF THAT.
WE CHOSE TO HAVE EXTERNAL
CERTIFICATION BECAUSE AT THE
TIME IN THE EARLY 2000S THAT THE
INSTALLATION WAS NOT IN GOOD
STANDING WITH OUR NEIGHBORS AND
WITH THE PUBLIC OF RICHMOND
PRETTY MUCH AND WE DIDN'T HAVE
AN ENVIRONMENTAL CHALLENGE AS
MUCH AS WE HAD A COMMUNICATION
CHALLENGE AND THOUGHT EXTERNAL
EMS WOULD BE A GOOD WAY TO GO TO
HAVE IMPARTIAL THIRD PARTY COME
IN SAYING WE ARE DOING OKAY OR
NOT DOING OKAY OR WE COULDN'T,
YOU KNOW, PROUDLY DISPLAY THAT
TO NEIGHBORS AND AT TIME BACK IN
2005 WE WERE ONLY DA SITE TO BE
CERTIFIED AND ONLY SINCE TO
MAINTAIN CERTIFICATION FOR AS
LONG AS WE HAVE AND TO REALLY
DATING MYSELF SOMEWHAT WE WERE A
MEMBER OR BECAME A MEMBER OF
PERFORMANCE TRACK.
ALL RIGHT. IN THE BEGINNING, I
THINK LIKE ANYONE OR ANY
INSTALLATION IMPLEMENTING EMS IS
RELATIVELY EASY AND THERE IS
LOTS OF SUCCESSES AND LOTS OF
FUN.
IN OUR CASE THERE WAS LOTS OF
WHAT I CALL LOW-HANGING FRUIT.
IF YOU DON'T HAVE SOMETHING AND
IMPLEMENT IT, LOTS OF THINGS
COULD BE IMPROVED. YOU KNOW
SOLVENT-FREE PARTS WASHERS AND
MANAGING STORMWATER AND DOING
LOTS OF TREE PLAN THING AND
BEAUTIFICATION AND THINGS LIKE
THAT.
WE DID A LOT OF OTHER THINGS,
BUT -- AND WE ALSO GOT NICE
RECOGNITION FOR IT.
CHESAPEAKE BAY RECOGNIZED US FOR
BUSINESS OF CHECKAPEEK BAY
ENVIRONMENTAL EXCELLENCE AWARD
AND WON WHAT IS WHITE HOUSE
CLOSING CIRCLE AWARD TWICE IN
2005 AND 2009 WHICH WE WERE VERY
PROUD OF AND 1911, 11 YEARS AGO
WE WON DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY AWARD.
I'M PROUD WITH EMS THAT WE HAVE
NOT HIM MREMENTATION OF EMS AND
ALL THAT IS REQUIRED WITH IT AND
EXTERNAL VERIFICATION OF IT, WE
HAVEN'T HAD A COMPLIANCE AND
HAVEN'T HAD A NOTICE OF
VIOLATION FROM ANY EXTERNAL
REGULATOR SINCE EMS WAS PUT IN
PLACE WHICH MAKES OUR --
OBVIOUSLY BOSSES ARE HAPPY AND
TOP MANAGEMENT IS HAPPY OUR TOP
MANAGEMENT CONTRARY TO WHAT
PETER MENTIONED IS ACTIVELY
INVOLVED IN OUR EMS. WE ARE NOT
JUST GIVING LIP SERVICE TO THAT
TYPE OF RESPONSIBILITY THERE.
SO, WE HAVE OUR MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM BUT WE WERE STILL AS IT
WAS MATURING, YOU KNOW, WE ARE
FACING THE -- THE CHALLENGES
THAT A SYSTEM NORMALLY DOES AND
HAD A GREAT MANY INTERNAL STOVE
PIPES AND VARIOUS OFFICES WANTED
TO DO IT THEIR WAY AND WEREN'T
SPEAKING TOGETHER OR WITH EACH
OTHER AND ALSO HAD CHALLENGES OF
JUST DIFFERING PRESIDENTIAL
ADMINISTRATIONS COMING INTO
PLACE AND DIFFERENT
ENVIRONMENTAL PRIORITIES THEY
BROUGHT WITH THEM.
NOW, WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY IS
WHAT I LIKE SO MUCH ABOUT AN EMS
AND WHY -- WHY I THOUGHT THAT 13
AND 423 WAS STILL NICE AND IT
REALLY MADE THE EMS EASY AND
WHAT WE DID FROM OUR EMS IN THE
VERY BEGINNING AND ALL ALONG WAS
WE TAKE OR TOOK THOSE VARIOUS
ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS THAT
WERE OUT THERE AND WE TURNED
THEM INTO ENVIRONMENTAL
OBJECTIVES.
SO, YOU KNOW, NOT ONLY WERE WE
SUPPORTING THE ENVIRONMENT AND
OUR COMPLIANCE WITH VARIOUS
REGULATIONS AND EXECUTIVE ORDERS
BUT DOING GOOD THINGS FOR THE
INSTALLATION AND ENVIRONMENT AND
WHEN WE KICKED IT OFF IS, AGAIN,
MORE OF EASY THINGS. YOU KNOW,
REPLACING FLOUR ESSIENT BULBS
WITH HIGH EFFICIENT LIGHTINGS
AND GOT INTO USE OF SOLAR PANELS
NOT ONLY FOR ELECTRICITY BUT FOR
HEATING WATER IN BUILDINGS AND
OVER IN OUR GYMS AND A BIG
INITIATIVE WE ARE STILL PURSUING
IS USE OF GROUND SOURCE HEAT
PUMPS AND RICHMOND HAS A VERY
CLAY HIGH CONCENTRATION OF CLAY
IN ITS SOIL AND MEANS THAT WATER
DOESN'T PERCOLATE VERY WELL AND
SORT OF SITS THERE AND
EVAPORATES OR RUNS OFF AND THE
CLAY CONTENT IN THE SOIL MAKES
IT VERY GOOD FOR GEOTHERMAL
WELLS AND VERY GOOD FOR THE
TRANSFERENCE OF COLDER -- YOU
KNOW, COOL AIR IN THE SUMMER
TIME WHEN WE NEED IT TO HEAT OR
COOL BUILDINGS AND THROUGH USE
OF A HEAT EXCHANGER IN THE
WINTER TIME, IT IS VERY GOOD TO
WARM THOSE BUILDINGS.
YOU CAN SEE MORE OF WHAT WE DID.
AGAIN, SOLVENT PARTS WASHERS I
MENTIONED THAT AND ROOTS ON
INSTALLATION THAT MADE IT NICE
AND PUT BIG EFFORT INTO
MANAGEMENT OF WILDLIFE AND WE
HAVE PART OF THE INSTALLATION
THAT IS PRIMARILY A WETLAND.
SO, THE ENGINEERS ARE VERY
HESITANT TO BUILD ANYTHING
THERE.
IT FLOODS A LOT AND IS ADJACENT
TO A CREEK. WE SORT OF TURNED
IT INTO THE WILDLIFE AREA AND
THROUGH EMS AIBLG TO IMPROVE
FLORA AND FAWNA IN THAT AREA AND
ADMINISTRATIVE AREA WITH LOTS OF
PARKING SPACES AND LOTS OF
IMPERVIOUS PARKING LOTS AND
INSTALLED BIOFILTRATION RAIN
GUARDENS AND BIOUNITS TO MANAGE
AND CAPTURE STORM SYSTEM TO
FILTER INTO THE GROUND AND HAD A
BIG INITIATIVE WE WEPT OUT THERE
LABELING STORM DRAINS WITH
EXACTLY WHERE THAT DRAIN WAS
LEADING TO AND THINK LOTS OF
PEOPLE OR LOTS INSTALLATIONS OR
ACTIVITIES HAVE DONE THIS.
BY DOING THIS, IT SORT OF MAKES
THE EMPLOYEES, YOU KNOW,
COGNIZANT OF HEY IF SOMETHING
GOES DOWN THE DRAIN, WHERE WILL
IT END UP?
I DON'T REALLY WANT THAT TO
HAPPEN.
SO, I WILL TAKE CARE OF -- BE
CAREFUL WITH WHAT I HAVE AND
MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T GO DOWN
THAT DRAIN.
PRESIDENT, YOU KNOW, THIS IS A
-- YOU GUYS KNOW THIS.
IT WAS MORE OF A REHASH AND HERE
IS THE VARIOUS EMPHASIS OF WHERE
PRESIDENT OBAMA WAS COMING FROM
IN HIS EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND
WORKED ON CHESAPEAKE BAY AND
INITIAL EFFORTS INTO
ENVIRONMENTAL ENERGY AND
ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE AND GETTING
INTO STEWARDSHIP OF OCEANS AND
JUST TALKING WAY BACK IN 2013
TALKING ABOUT GETTING READY FOR
MITIGATING IMPACTS OF CLIMATE
CHANGE.
THEN, YOU KNOW, ALSO, HE ISSUED
IN MARCH 25TH, 2015, YOU KNOW,
EXECUTIVE ORDER 13693.
IT DID GET RID OF THE PREVIOUS
EXECUTIVE ORDER ON EMS AND ALSO
DID REQUIRE THE FEDERAL
FACILITIES TO REDUCE GREENHOUSE
GAS.
YOU KNOW, TO BEGIN THE PURSUIT
OF SUSTAINABILITY GOALS AND TO
CONTINUE THE USE OF AN
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
AND WHERE THAT SYSTEM HAS PROVEN
EFFECTIVE.
THAT WAS US.
AGAIN, I'M A VERY BIG ADVOCATE
FOR EMSS BECAUSE IT IS THE WAY
THAT THE STRUCTURE. I'M SURE
PETER WENT OVER THIS AND WAY
THAT EMS IS STRUCTURED AND YOU
HAVE TO DO GOOD THINGS.
AND YOU LOOK AT YOUR
ENVIRONMENTAL OBJECTIVES AND BY
HAVING A THIRD PARTY REGISTRAR
AND HAVING INTERNAL AUDITS AND
EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL AUDITS
IN-BETWEEN THOSE, I HAVE TO
PROVE TO THOSE AUDITORS AND BE
IT INTERNAL AUDIT THAT WE
NORMALLY CONTRACTED OUT OR
EXTERNAL REGISTER THAT, HEY. MY
EMS IS ADDING VALUE TO
INSTALLATION.
WE DID THAT, LIKE I MENTIONED,
BY TAKING EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND
TURNING REQUIREMENTS INTO
ENVIRONMENTAL OBJECTIVES.
NOW, WHAT ELSE HAPPENED IN 2015
WAS THE STANDARD.
IT WAS REVISED.
IT BECAME A -- I DON'T WANT TO
SAY A LOT MORE COMPLICATED.
I KNOW PETER PROBABLY WENT OVER
THIS.
IT REALLY ASKED US TO FACTOR IN
THE EXTERNAL AND INTERNAL
ELEMENTS THAT INFLUENCED AN EMS.
AND WHAT I LIKED TO SAY IS -- OR
IN MY -- YOU KNOW, MY
EXPLANATION IS WE WERE DOG ALL
OF THESE BEFORE.
WE HAD A -- WE WERE CONSIDERING
EXTERNAL FACTORS NEXT MS AND HAD
GOOD LEADERSHIP INVOLVEMENT AND
KNEW WHERE WE WERE GOING WITH
EMS AND HOW IT LINKED TO
STRATEGIC DIRECTION OF MY
ORGANIZATION.
BUT WITH A NEW STANDARD AND 15
STANDARD, IT WAS A LOT MORE
REQUIREMENTS ON DOCUMENTATION
AND REALLY BEING ABLE TO PROVE
WHAT YOU HAVE DONE.
YOU KNOW, YOU ALL KNOW THIS.
IF IT IS NOT WRITTEN DOWN, YOU
KNOW, IT NEVER HAPPENED.
SO, THE NEW STANDARD REALLY
MANDATED THAT WE CONSIDER WHO
INTERESTED PARTIES WERE AND WHAT
INTEREST WAS ON EMS AND WHAT
THEIR COMPLIANCE OBLIGATIONS
MIGHT BE RELATED TO THE EMS.
THE -- WE HAD THE REQUIREMENT TO
-- WE HAD UNTIL SEPTEMBER 15TH
AT 18 TO PASS IT.
WE PASSED OUR RECERTIFICATION
AUDITS IN MAY OF '18 AND
RECENTLY A YEAR AGO, WE HAD
ANOTHER RECERTIFICATION AUDIT
THAT WE WERE SUCCESSFUL WITH
PASSING.
EXCUSE ME.
I WENT TOO FAST.
ALL RIGHT. NOW, PRESIDENT TRUMP
CAME IN. HE HAD SOME
INTERESTING EXECUTIVE ORDERS
AND, YOU KNOW, EXPEDITING REVIEW
OF FEDERAL PRODUCT AND MAJOR
INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS AND
PROMOTING GREEN INDEPENDENCE AND
ECONOMIC GROWTH THAT WAS ALWAYS
IMPORTANT TO US AND WHAT WE ARE
DOING WITH THE EMS AND YOU CAN
SEE WHAT IT REVOEKS AND GETTING
MORE INTO TRYING TO STREAMLINE
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW AND
PERMITTING PROCESS.
GETTING INTO HIS EXECUTIVE ORDER
IS A BIG ENVIRONMENTAL ONE.
IT REVOKES 13693.
YOU CAN SEE IT STILL HAS ALL OF
THE VERBIAGE IN THERE AND STILL
TALKED ABOUT REDUCING ENERGY
USES AND USING MORE RENEWABLE
ENERGY AND REDUCING POTABLE AND
NON-POTABLE WATER CONSUMPTION
MAKING SURE WE BUILD NEW
BUILDINGS THAT WERE ENERGY
EFFICIENT IN TRYING TO REDUCE
WASTE.
THEN WE HAVE A LOT INTO, YOU
KNOW, TRACKING OR MONITORING OR
REPORTING ON VARIOUS ENERGY
MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES AND COST
REDUCTIONS WE WERE PURSUING.
AND, YOU KNOW, WE ISSUED THE
EXECUTIVE ORDER IN MAY OF '18
AND DIDN'T GET IMPLEMENTING
STRUCTURES UNTIL SLIGHTLY OVER A
YEAR LATER OR ALMOST A YEAR
LATER AND GETTING INTO -- YOU
KNOW, USING WORDS AND I TOOK
WORDS OUT CONTINUING EFFECTIVE
MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES SUCH AS
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AND PRESIDENT TRUMP'S EXECUTIVE
ORDER MENTIONED USING EMS.
YOU KNOW, WE, OF COURSE, LOVED
THAT.
IT WAS WORKING FOR US AND,
AGAIN, TWEAKED EMS TO MEET THE
NEW STANDARD AND REQUIREMENTS OF
THE NEW PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE
ORDER.
PRESIDENT BIDEN COMES IN AND
CHALLENGES THAT GOVERNMENT FACES
IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR TOO, I'M
SORRY.
WITH ALL PRESIDENTIAL
ADMINISTRATIONS THAT SEEMS TO BE
A SOMEWHAT CHANGE IN DIRECTION
OR CHANGE IN EMPHASIS.
YOU HAVE USED -- I'M SURE YOU
FOLKS HAVE USED THIS BUT A
REMINDER, YOU KNOW, WE CAME IN
SAYING, OKAY. LET'S START
LOOKING AT CLIMATE CRISIS AS ONE
OF THE FIRST ONES HE SIGNED AND
LET'S LOOK AT CLIMATE CRISIS
HERE AND ABROAD AND TRY TO GET
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO GET
INTO MORE CLEAN INDUSTRIES AND
JOBS THROUGH FEDERAL
SUSTAINABILITY.
HIS ACTIONS AND VARIOUS
EXECUTIVE ORDERS REVOEKED THE
PREVIOUS EXECUTIVE ORDER.
WHAT I WANT TO MENTION HERE AND
FINALLY, YOU KNOW, IN MY
PERSONAL OPINION AND PERISH'S AS
AN INDIVIDUAL NOT GOVERNMENTAL
EMPLOYEE THERE IS NO -- TO ANY
OF HIS EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND I
GUESS THAT, YOU KNOW, MAYBE WE
ARE -- WE ARE, YOU KNOW, A
RARITY OR EXCEPTION AND I SAID
SO MANY TIMES BEFORE AND SORRY
FOR BEATING THAT DEAD HORSE BUT
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
COULD BE EFFECTIVE AND IS TRULY
A MANAGEMENT SYSTEM THAT TRULY
ALLOWS YOU AND GIVES YOU THE
FRAMEWORK AND OPPORTUNITY TO
ADDRESS EVER-CHANGING
REQUIREMENTS OR THE TOPIC OR
TITLE OF MY PRESENTATION IS THAT
REGARDLESS WHO IS IN CHARGE AND
WHAT REGARDLESS OF WHAT VARIOUS
EXECUTIVE ORDER OR SUBSEQUENT
REQUIRED REGULATION THAT CAME
OFF THAT, THE EMS GAVE YOU THE
FRAMEWORK TO MEET THOSE ORDERS
AND DO THAT SUCCESSFULLY.
GOING WAY BACK TO PRESIDENT
CLINTON HE SAID LET'S FOCUS ON
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AND
ENSURING NEIGHBORS HAVE ON THEIR
INSTALLATION AND RESTORING THERE
AND TRYING TO REDUCE POLLUTION
AND ALONG WITH THAT TRYING TO
REDUCE TOXIC CHEMICALS AND
REDUCE OZONE DEPLETING
SUBSTANCES IN THE DEPARTMENT OF
DEFENSE IS VERY BIG. WE
ACTUALLY DO USE A LOT OF THE
OZONE DEPLETING SYSTEMS IN
WEAPONS SYSTEMS AND HAVE
AGGRESSIVE PROGRAM TO CAPTURE
ODES AND CLEAN IT UP AND REUSE
IT SO NOT BUYING NEW CHEMICALS
AND WHAT NOT AND LETTING THEM GO
OWE OF INTO ENVIRONMENT AND MY
SUMMATION I SAID SO MANY TIMES
AND APOLOGIZE FOR REITERATING
MYSELF AND IEMS HAS BEEN IN
PLACE FOR 17 YEARS AND WE HAVE
BEEN, YOU KNOW, AUDITED AND, YOU
KNOW, SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR AND
EVERY THREE YEARS QUITE DETAILED
REREGISTRATION AUDITS THAT WE
PASS WITH FLYING COLORS AND WE
HAVE DONE CONSIDERABLY A GOOD
AMOUNT OF THINGS FOR
INSTALLATION AND FOR OUR
NEIGHBORHOOD AND ENVIRONMENT AND
I'M AN EXTREMELY BIG ADVOCATE
THAT IF YOU HAVE EMS THAT IS
WORKING FOR YOU, GREAT. IT CAN
CERTAINLY BE MODIFIED TO ADDRESS
CHANGES AND IMMEDIATE CHANGES
AND IF YOU DON'T HAVE ONE, I
WOULD CONSIDER LOOKING INTO
THAT.
THIS IS A SUMMARY CHART.
YOU KNOW, THE UNITED STATES HAS
BEEN TRYING AND GOVERNMENT HAS
BEEN TRYING TO PROTECT
ENVIRONMENT FOR DECADES.
AN EMS IS WHAT IT SAYS AND
ALLOWS YOU TO EFFECTIVELY MANAGE
AND ADDRESS ENVIRONMENTAL
CHALLENGE THAT MIGHT BE
PRESENTED TO YOU.
AS I MENTIONED EARLIER THAT OUR
STOVE PIPES WHERE WE HAD INITIAL
RESISTANCE BUILDING EMSS WHEN WE
HAD OFFICES THAT SAID WE HAVE
DONE IT THIS WAY AND WHY DO I
WANT TO CHANGE AND WHY DO I NEED
TO TALK TO YOU AND WHY DO I, MR.
ENGINEER, BUILDING CARE ABOUT
WHAT IT DOES TO THE ENVIRONMENT
OR HOW WATER RUNS OFF FROM THE
PARKING LOT AND THINGS LIKE THAT
HAVE GONE AWAY AND RICHMOND AT
DEFENSE SUPPLY CENTER RICHMOND
ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEM HAS BECOME
HOW WE DO BUSINESS AND HAS
BECOME HOW WE LOOK AT THINGS AND
ADDRESS THINGS AND ARE STILL
DOING GOOD THINGS AND ONE THING
THAT ACTUALLY I MENTIONED THAT
I'M ON USING NEW EQUIPMENT HERE
AND I'M IN LEXINGTON VIRGINIA
NOW AT VIRGINIA MILL INSTITUTE
AND OUR INSTALLATION WAS
RECOGNIZED FOR THIS YEAR'S
GOVERNOR'S ENVIRONMENTAL
EXCELLENCE AWARD.
AND THAT INITIATIVE HAD TO DO
WITH SWAPPING OUT OUR OLD FUEL
FIRE BOILERS FOR NATURAL GAS
BOILERS AND IN ADDITION TO THAT
PULLING UP ALL OUR UNDERGROUND
FUEL STORAGE TANKS AS WELL AS
MANY ABOVE GROUND FUEL STORAGE
TAFRPGS BECAUSE WE DIDN'T NEED
THEM ANYMORE.
AND IT WAS THAT INITIATIVE THAT
WAS PART OF OUR ENVIRONMENTAL
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM.
WE DID GREAT THINGS FOR THE
INSTALLATION AND DID GREAT
THINGS FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND
WERE VERY FORTUNATE TO BE
RECOGNIZED TO THE COMMON WEALTH
OF VIRGINIA FOR DOING THAT AND I
APOLOGIZE FOR IN MY INITIAL
CONFUSION WITH HAVING TO MAKE
THIS UNCOMFORTABLE EQUIPMENT
WORK AND APOLOGIZE FOR ANY
DISRUPTIONS AND I ALWAYS LIKE TO
LEAVE THIS WITH ANYONE IF THERE
IS -- IF YOU EVER HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS OR HAVE ANYTHING YOU
EVER NEED FROM SOMEONE FROM THE
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE PERTAINING
TO ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM HOW TO MAKE IT WORK OR
WORK BETTER, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO
GIVE ME A RING OR DROP ME AN
E-MAIL. I'M ALWAYS THERE FOR
YOU.
THAT CLOSES MY PRESENTATION AND
I APPRECIATE YOUR PATIENCE.
AND IF THERE IS NO QUESTIONS, I
C
CAN CERTAINLY TAKE THOSE.
>> THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE YOUR
APPRECIATETATIONS AND SHARING OF
YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE NEXT
MS.
YOU ARE A GREAT EXAMPLE HOW TO
USE EMS TO BE EFFECTIVE IN YOUR
IMPLEMENTATION ENVIRONMENTAL
MANAGEMENT IN YOUR FACILITY AND
WE HAD A QUESTION COME IN ABOUT
SPECIFIC TOOLS YOU MIGHT USE AND
HOW YOU IMPLEMENT YOUR EMS, DO
YOU USE A PARTICULAR TYPE OF
SOFTWARE OR OTHER THINGS TO HELP
YOU IN THE EMS MANAGEMENT
PROCESS?
>> YOU KNOW, WE -- WE -- WE
DON'T.
BACK IN 2005, AND I STILL AM,
OBVIOUSLY, AS HOW WELL I HAVE
OPERATED THIS SOUND SYSTEM AND
COMPUTER. I WAS GOING TO SAY
I'M SOMEWHAT COMPUTER ILLITERATE
OR TECHNOLOGY ILLITERATE. BACK
THEN IT WAS STUBBY PENCILS AND
SPREADSHEETS AND ALL THAT. WE
HAVE MAINTAINED THAT AND
UPGRADED THINGS WITH TECHNOLOGY.
BUT, THERE IS NO -- THERE WAS
NEVER -- THERE WAS A LOT OF
TRAINING THAT WENT ON WHEN WE
WERE BUILDING OUR EMS AND LOTS
OF LESSONS LEARNED AND LOTS OF
MISTAKES AND ASKING FOR HELP FOR
OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT HE HAD
EMSS IN THE RICHMOND AREA, BUT
NOTHING SPECIAL.
IT IS -- YOU KNOW, I JUST FOUND
OR FEEL THAT IT IS REALLY KIND
OF DIVING INTO AND TAKING
STANDARD AND NOT BEING
OVERWHELMED BY IT.
YOU KNOW, THERE IS A SIMPLE
LAYMAN'S EXPLANATION TO WHAT THE
STANDARD. YOU KNOW, WHAT THEY
MEAN WHEN THEY SAY VARIOUS WORDS
IN THE STANDARD AND TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT HOW YOU MAKE THAT FIT
IN YOUR ORGANIZATION.
AS I MENTIONED, YOU KNOW, AS I
SAID TO OUR AUDITORS SEVERAL
TIMES, YOU KNOW, WE DO IT THIS
WAY BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT WORKS
FOR RICHMOND.
USING, YOU KNOW, LEXINGTON MIGHT
HAVE ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM THAT MIGHT OPERATE
DIFFERENTLY THAN IN RICHMOND.
THAT IS FINE AND HOW IT SETS UP
AND TO ME IS A BIG ABOUT ENFIT.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.
>> YOU CAN MAKE IT WORK HOWEVER
YOU WANT IT TO. AGAIN, IF YOU
NEED HELP OR DROP ME A LINE, I
WILL TRY TO FIND WHATEVER
RESOURCE I HAVE AVAILABLE I CAN
SHARE WITH YOU.
>> I APPRECIATE THAT.
>> ANOTHER QUESTION THAT WE HAD
IS WITH REGARD TO THE UPCOMING
PHASE OUT OF HYDROFLUOROCARBONS
OR HFCS.
ARE YOU USING YOUR EMS TO HELP
WITH YOU THAT PHASE-OUT?
>> WE ARE. WE ARE TRYING TO GET
INTO PRODUCT SUBSTITUTION.
I -- I TRY TO -- YOU KNOW, I
DON'T WANT TO KEEP TALKING ON
THIS.
IT IS A VERY LONG TOPIC, BUT THE
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE DOES HAVE,
AS YOU CAN IMAGINE; RIGHT?
THE B52, LET'S USE THAT AS AN
EXAMPLE. IT HAS BEEN FLYING FOR
50 YEARS, YOU KNOW, AND IS
SLATED TO GO FOR ANOTHER 30.
WE HAVE WEAPON SYSTEMS OUT THERE
THAT USE HYDROCOLORINATED
FLUOROCARBONS IN IT AND ONES
PROHIBITED FROM BEING
MANUFACTURED AND THEY CAN REALLY
EASILY IF A SUB MARINE IS
DESIGNED AND COOLING SYSTEM IS
DESIGNED ON SUB MARINE TO HAVE
CFCS IT IS HARD TO REFUEL THAT
AND IN RICHMOND WE HAVE A
PROCESS WHERE THE DEPARTMENT OF
DEFENSE WERE THE HUB AND
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE WILL SEND
BACK DIRTY CFCS TO US IN THEIR
APPROPRIATE CYLINDERS.
WE WILL REMOVE CFCS FROM THE
CYLINDERS AND CLEAN THEM AND
CLEAN OUT IMPURITIYS AND MAKE
SURE THERE IS NO ACCIDENTAL
RELEASES AND TAKE THE CONTAINER
AND REDO THAT AND SAND BLAST IT
AND GET RID OF OLD PAINT AND DO
HYDROSTATIC TESTING TO MAKE SURE
IT IS GOOD AND IF NOT GET A NEW
CYLINDER. WE CAN REISSUE CFCS
BACK TO THE MILITARY.
WE ARE LOOKING FOR PRODUCT
SUBSTITUTIONS ALONG THE WAY
WHERE WE CAN.
IN THE INTERIM, WE ARE DOING
WHAT WE CAN TO KEEP THE PRODUCT
THAT IS OUT THERE STILL USABLE.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR LEADING US THROUGH
THAT.
WITH THAT, I BELIEVE THAT WE
WILL DROP INTO A BREAK. THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR OUR
100 + VIEWERS AND HOPE THAT OUR
FIRST TWO PRESENTATIONS HAVE
GONE WELL AND BEEN INFORMATIVE
TO YOU.
WE WILL BE RECONVENING IN ABOUT
10 MINUTES FOR THE NEXT SPEAKER
OF OUR SESSION.
I HOPE TO HAVE YOU JOIN US THEN.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
DAVID KUMAR IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL
ENGINEER WITH HEADQUARTERS US
CIVIL FORCE ENGINEER AT THE
PENTAGON AND 30 YEARS OF
EXPERIENCE IN THE AIRFORCE AND
[INAUDIBLE] MILLER IS
ENVIRONMENTAL EXPERT FOR
DEPARTMENT OF FORCES OF
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
AT SENIOR CENTER -- WITH THAT,
PLEASE TAKE IT AWAY.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU. GOOD
MORNING.
MIC CHECK. CAN YOU ALL HEAR ME
CLEAR?
>> YES. I CAN HEAR YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT. WE WILL DIVE INTO
THIS AND I WILL PROVIDE A BIT OF
AN INTRO AND KIND OF THE
BACKGROUND WHAT WE ARE DOING
WITH RISK-BASED ASPECT INVENTORY
AND GIVE IT TO OUR EXPERT TO
GIVE YOU GUYS WE ARE
CROSS-FITTING INFORMATION THAT
THE AIRFORCE IS USING AS A TOOL
MAYBE IT IS HELPFUL TO SOMEONE
ELSE TO GET GOOD IDEAS GOING AS
WE CROSS-FEED THIS INFORMATION.
SO, A FEW YEARS AGO WHEN WE WERE
HERE AT THE SYMPOSIUM, WE
PRESENTED KIND OF OUR VERSION OF
EMS EFFECTIVENESS.
IF YOU ALL RECALL, WE -- I THINK
MR. PERISH BROUGHT IT UP, YOU
KNOW, WE ALL HAD TO AS FEDERAL
AGENCIES ADOPT EMS FRAMEWORK AND
BASED ON, YOU KNOW, AN EXECUTIVE
ORDER DRIVER THAT ASKED US TO
USE THE EMS FRAMEWORK ISO14,001
ISO14,001-BASED AND RECENT EIOS
WAS ABOUT -- BY THE WAY I'M ON
THE SLIDE 2.
THE NEXT ONE. YEAH.
IT WAS REALLY ABOUT, YOU KNOW,
WHAT ARE WE DOING AS FAR AS
IMPLEMENTING EMS THAT WE THINK
IS EFFECTIVE.
WE PRESENTED WHAT WE THOUGHT WAS
EFFECTIVE EMS AND MAKING SURE WE
ARE OPERATIONALIZING
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT BEYOND
JUST THE ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNITY
ACROSS THE DEPARTMENT AND IN
OTHER WORDS THIS IS NOT JUST
ENVIRONMENTAL'S JOB AND NOT JUST
THE ENVIRONMENTAL FUNCTION AT
INSTALLATION AND APPROPRIATE
FACILITY TO MANAGE AND WE ARE
PROACTIVELY MANAGING
ENVIRONMENTAL ELEMENTS AND
NATURAL INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS
AND DON'T WANT TO FORGET NATURAL
INFRASTRUCTURE OR RESOURCES OR
CULTURAL RESOURCES.
WITH END GOAL OF ENABLING AND
SUPPORTING THE MISSION AND HAVE
TO FRAME THIS IN ACHIEVING
ENVIRONMENTAL GOOD AND
ENVIRONMENTAL PERFORMANCE AND
COMPLIANCE AND SUPPORTED MISSION
AND UNIMPEEDED MISSION ENSURING
AIR MEN WERE AWARE OF AND FULLY
UNDERSTOOD COMPLIANCE
REQUIREMENTS AND ENSURING
ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS
WERE INCLUDED IN THE PLANNING
AND DECISION MAKING.
WE FRAMED HOW DO WE MEASURE
THIS.
WE DON'T HAVE TO GET AUDITED
OFFICIALLY AND CERTIFIED UNDER
ISO14,001.
WE DO OWN EXTERNAL AUDITS AND
CENTRALIZED AIR FORCE OVER YEARS
RECENT GENERALIZED CENTRALIZED
ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENTS EVEN
THOUGH WE HAVE 90 APPROPRIATE
INSTALLATIONS AND FACILITIES AND
INSTALLATIONS ENVIRONMENTAL
SYSTEM OUT AT AIR FORCE CIVIL
ENGINEERING SYSTEM WHERE
MRS. MILLER WORKS AND HAVE TO
FRAME AND UNDERSTAND FOR OUR
SENIOR LEADERS WHAT IS AN
EFFECTIVE EMS IN THE FIELD AND
HOW DID THAT TRANSLATE TO OUR
LEVEL AND HIGH-LEVEL
ORGANIZATION AND EFFECTIVE EMS
FROM THE COMMAND LEVEL
PERSPECTIVE.
WE BUILT THAT CONCEPT.
NEXT SLIDE.
WE ALSO ISSUED POLICY THAT
BASICALLY DIRECTED THAT CONCEPT
AND POLICY AND NOT JUST TO THE
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNITY BUT TO
FIELD COMMANDERS GARISSON
COMMANDERS AND LITERALLY EVERY
LEADER ACROSS THE AIRFORCE
ENTERPRISE AND THIS POLICY WAS
ISSUED WITH THE AIR FORCE VISION
TO BE WORLD LEADER AND
MANAGEMENT AND INTEGRATED WITH
SAFETY AND HEALTH AND HOW
AIRFORCE TRIES TO EMULATE THE
PRIVATE SECTOR EVEN THOUGH
OFFICIALLY WE ARE NOT ORGANIZED
THIS WAY AND PROVIDING BETTER
CAREMAN FOR AIR MEN IS NO. 1 AND
HOW WE CARE FOR ENVIRONMENT AND
ALL ABOUT COMPLY WITH LEGAL
OBLIGATIONS AND REDUCE RISK AND
CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVED.
I THINK COMPLIANCE HAS BEEN
CLEAR WITH OUR EFFECTIVENESS AND
HOW WE ARE EFFECTIVE AND HOW WE
CAN REALLY CLEARLY GAUGE THAT
WITH COMPLIANCE AND HOW WELL WE
ARE DOING WITH COMPLIANCE AND WE
HAVE LOTS OF MEASURES TO
CONTINUOUSLY IMPROVE AND WE ARE
ALWAYS STRIVING TO IMPROVE AND
KNOW AT WHITNEY MILLER'S LEVEL
IT IS NON-STOP WORKING WITH THE
FIELD AND AIR MEN TO SEE HOW
BEST WE CAN SERVICE AND SUPPORT
THEM WITH THE BEST POLICY AND
BEST GUIDANCE AND BEST TOOLS AND
DO AN EFFECTIVE OVERSIGHT.
SO, THAT WAS GOOD. WHAT WE WERE
KIND OF MISSING MAYBE WAS THIS
REDUCED RISK.
HOW -- ARE WE EFFECTIVELY
COMMUNICATING THE RISK OF OUR
ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS?
WE DO INVENTORIES AND WE GET IT
APPROVED BY OUR SENIOR LEADERS
AND WE SPREAD IT AROUND AND WE
HAVE THESE LARGE LISTS OF ASPECT
INVENTORIES AND FROM THERE ARE
OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO GET
SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS.
WE KIND OF WERE NOT SURE WE WERE
MAKING IT UNDERSTAND
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMUNITY THAT WAS
OUR CONCERN. NEXT SLIDE.
THAT WAS OUR POLICY AND NEXT
SLIDE.
I WANTED TO SHOW A BIG PICTURE
AND WHAT WE ARE FACED WITH IS
THIS IS WHAT WE SUPPORT.
THE MYRIAD OF ENVIRONMENTAL
REGULATIONS AND MYRIAD OF TYPES
OF ACTIVITIES THAT DEPARTMENT OF
AIRFORCE HAS ENGAGED IN AND ALL
OF THE LAND THAT WE MANAGE AND
PERMITS WE OWN AND WATER SYSTEMS
THAT WE RUN.
THIS IS COMPLICATED AND IS HUGE
AND IS A HUGE EFFORT AND ON TOP
OF THAT, WE HAVE TO SUPPORT THE
MISSION AND THESE AREAS AND
ISSUES CANNOT IMPEDE OUR
MISSION.
WE ARE PUTTING IN NEW WEAPONS
SYSTEMS AND BETTING THEM DOWN
AND F35S WE HAVE HEARD THAT AND
MANY OTHER SYSTEMS AND LOTS OF
TRAINING AND TESTING GOING ON IN
OUR RANGES THAT WE HAVE TO KEEP
THAT IN MIND AS WE BUILT THIS
NEW TRANSFORMATION. NEXT SLIDE.
SO, WHAT WE WANTED TO DO IS KNOW
THE DEFINITION OF ENVIRONMENTAL
ASPECTS AND DEFINITIONS OF
ENVIRONMENTAL RISKS AND WANTED
TO MERGE RISK AND ASPECT
IDENTIFICATION AND WHERE YOU
TRULY WANT TO COMMUNICATE WHERE
ASPECTS WERE WAS REALLY
ENVIRONMENTAL RISK AND TRANSLATE
ENVIRONMENTAL RISK TO SOMETHING
THAT EVERYONE CAN UNDERSTAND AS
A RISK TO MISSION. NEXT SLIDE.
PREVIOUS TOOLS AND PROCESSES A*-
SPESHTH INVENTORY TOOL AND LIKE
I MENTIONED WE HAVE INVENTORY
AND WHAT WE CAN DO IS CLEARLY
ANSWER FROM A CORPORATE OR MY
LEVEL WHAT IS EATING AT LUNCH
AND WHAT ARE SIGNIFICANT ASPECTS
FROM AN ENTERPRISE LEVEL AND
WHAT WE TRULY NEED TO INVEST IN
AND BOIL THAT DOWN TO THE TOP
1015 TYPES OF THINGS THAT OUR
SENIOR LEADERSHIP REALLY NEEDS
TO BE AWARE OF AND MAYBE KIND OF
FOCUS ON OUR VERY LIMITED
RESOURCES TO INVEST IN.
WE NEEDED THAT FEEDBACK TOOL
FROM THE AIRFORCE CIVIL
ENGINEERING CENTER WHERE WHITNEY
MILLER WORKS WORKING WITH
INSTALLATIONS INSTEAD OF GETTING
THESE LISTS WE HAVE AIR AND
HAZARDOUS WASTE ASPECTS AND WHAT
IT CAN MEAN AND APPLYING RISK
IDENTIFICATION PROCESS.
NEXT SLIDE.
WHAT WE KIND OF NEW IS THAT WITH
THE ISSUANCE OF ISO14 THOUSAND,
2015, BIG FOCUS ON RISK AND
OPPORTUNITIES AND PUT HEADS
TOGETHER AND WE WON'T ADOPT IT
EXACTLY THE WAY IT IS DESCRIBED
AND HERE IS WHERE WE CAN TAKE
THIS FOCUS ON RECENT UPGRADE TO
ISO14,000.
WE CAN KIND OF SHIFT THAT FOCUS
FROM ASPECTS TO ENVIRONMENTAL
RISKS AND WHAT ELSE WE DID WAS
WE HAVE AN AIRFORCE INSTRUCTION
ON RISK MANAGEMENT, 90-802 THAT
WAS ALL ABOUT OPERATIONAL RISK
ASSESSMENTS.
WHY DON'T WE MERGE THE TWO AND
START TO SPEAK IN THE LANGUAGE
THAT ALL AIRFORCE CAN UNDERSTAND
NOT JUST ENVIRONMENTAL FOLKS?
SO, BASICALLY, WE STARTED TO
MAKE THAT TRANSITION.
NEXT SLIDE.
USING THIS KEY ENVIRONMENTAL --
EXCUSE ME. ISO ELEMENT THAT HAS
EXTRA RELIANCE ON MANAGING AND
ASSESSING RISKS AND WANTING TO
ASSURE EMS CAN ACHIEVE INTENDED
OUTCOMES AND PREVENT OR REDUCE
UNDESIRED EFFECTS OF OUR ASPECTS
AND FOCUSING ON THAT IMPROVEMENT
AND OPPORTUNITY FOR CONTINUAL
IMPROVEMENT THAT WAS KEY ONES
NOT WHOLE LIST BUT KEY ONES SO
ORGANIZATIONAL LEADERS ARE NOT
SETTLED WITH SCORES AND TOP
PRIORITIES AND ARE SPREAD ACROSS
A MYRIAD OF AREAS.
SO, WE ADOPTED -- NEXT SLIDE.
THIS WILL BE THE LAST ONE. JUST
ONE REAL QUICK ONE.
WE ADOPTED 90-802 TO REALLY KIND
OF GET INTO HOW DO WE WANT TO
EFFECT -- REALLY EFFECTIVELY USE
RISK MANAGEMENT METHODOLOGY AND
CATEGORIZE INSTALLATION RISK LOW
MEDIUM HIGH OR EXTREMELY HIGH
AND WHAT OUR LEADERS UNDERSTAND.
THEY USE A RISK-BASED MATRIX,
OPERATIONAL RISK-BASED MATRIX
AND USING THAT MATRIX TO
INCORPORATE AND BLEND IN OUR
RISK OR ASPECT INVENTORY NOW
THAT WHAT WE CALL A RISK-ASPECT
INVENTORY.
WE KIND OF ENSURE IT IS NOT JUST
ENVIRONMENTAL COORDINATOR AT THE
BASE LEVEL THAT IS TRYING TO
EXPLAIN RISK BY ADOPTING THIS
RISK-BASED APPROACH OF
OPERATIONAL RISK.
IT IS UNDERSTANDABLE TO OUR
OTHER CROSS-FUNCTIONAL TEAM
MEMBERS THAT WE WANT TEAM
MEMBERS AND LEADERS WHO ARE NOT
FROM THE ERN ENVIRONMENTAL WORLD
AND WE ARE SPEAKING A COMMON
LANGUAGE NOW AND THINK WE BUY IN
MORE PARTICIPATION FROM
COLLEAGUES ON CROSS-FUNCTIONAL
TEAM AT ALL LEVELS.
OC HEALTH AND SAFETY AND ACTUAL
OPERATORS AND WE ALL UNDERSTAND
RISK MANAGEMENT THAT IS BASED ON
METHODOLOGY AND INSTRUCTION AND
WHAT WHITNEY MILLER WILL EXPLAIN
IS A TOOL SHE REALLY HAS BUILT.
IT IS, YOU KNOW, IT TAKES
QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE
APPROACH TO DOCUMENTING OUR
PROCESSES AND RECORDING RESULTS
OF THIS RISK ASPECT INVENTORY
THAT WE USE OUR SUBJECT MATTER
EXPERTS TO BUILD AN INITIAL RISK
MATRIX AND BASED ON KNOWLEDGE
ACROSS ENTERPRISE AND SUBJECT
MATTER EXPERTS NOT AT BASE LEVEL
SITTING AT AIRFORCE CIVIL
ENGINEERING CENTER THAT IS VERY
FAMILIAR WITH THE AIR OR WATER
OR WASTE PROGRAM AND OPERATIONAL
TANK PROGRAM.
WE BRING THEIR EXPERTISE AND
KNOWLEDGE INTO EMS TO BUILD THIS
RISK ASPECT INVENTORY TOOL AND
WILL GIVE IT OVER TO WHITNEY TO
GET INTO IT STARTING IN THE NEXT
SLIDE TO GET INTO THAT
METHODOLOGY AND OVER TO YOU,
WHITNEY.
>> THANK YOU. THIS IS REALLY
BASIS FOR NEW RISK-BASED
IDENTIFICATION PROCESS AND WILL
BE WALKING YOU THROUGH THE NEW
PROCESS WE DEVELOPED IN THE LAST
FEW YEARS AND I WILL TAKE YOU
THROUGH A FEW SCREENSHOTS OF KEY
FEATURES OF SHAIR POINT TOOL WE
DEVELOPED TO MANAGE RISKS AND
ASPECTS WITHIN THE AIRFORCE.
WE HAVE OUTLINED RISK
IDENTIFICATION SUBS HERE FROM
PERSPECTIVE OF CROSS-FUNCTIONAL
TEAM WHICH IS TEAM THAT AT
INSTALLATION LEVEL DOES ACTIVE
WORK MANAGING BASIS OF EMS AND
FIRST STEP HERE IS IDENTIFYING
AND CATEGORIZIZING INSTALLATION
RISK AND THREE WAYS THAT CFT CAN
DO THAT.
FIRST, THEY CAN USE THE
ENTERPRISE RISK IDENTIFIED BY
THIS AS-IS.
WE WILL LOOK AT WHAT IT LOOKS
LIKE IN THE TOOL IN A LITTLE
BIT.
FOR EXAMPLE, IF THERE IS A RISK
THAT THE TAKE CAN BE DEVELOPED
FOR UST MANAGEMENT AND THE
INSTALLATION CAN USE THAT RISK
AND SAME SEVERITY AND
PROBABILITY AND SECOND OPTION
USING ENTERPRISE RISK
IDENTIFYING BY NEEDS AND
MODERATING SEVERITY AND
PROBABILITY AND AGREEING WITH
THE RISK OF UST MANAGEMENT AND
THEY WANT TO ADJUST SEVERITY
ABILITY THEY CAN DO IT AS WELL
AND THIRD OPTION HERE IS
CREATING COMPLETELY UNIQUE
INSTALLATION RISK NOD IDENTIFIED
BY THE NEEDS AND EACH SITUATION
HAS OWN UNIQUE SITUATIONS GOING
ON AND MAKING SURE INSTALLATIONS
HAVE FLEXIBILITY IDENTIFYING
RIFSHGS TO GO ON AT BASE THAT
MIGHT NOT HAPPEN AT AIRFORCE AS
A WHOLE.
AFTER THEY IDENTIFIED THE RISKS
AND SECOND STEP IS IDENTIFYING
ASPECTS DRIVING THE INSTALLATION
RISK AND WE TELL FOLKS YOU CAN'T
HAVE A RISK WITHOUT SOMETHING
THAT IS DRIVING THAT RISK AND
WHERE THAT KONLS INTO PLAY WHEN
IDENTIFYING ASPECTS DRIVING
THOSE RISKS AND WE HAVE A TABLE
IN THE TOOL THAT WE HAVE IN
SHAIR POINT THAT BRINGS IN
ASPECTS FROM AUTHORITATIVE DATA
AND ASPECTS FROM TOOL AND
ENCOURAGE DATABASES WITH FILTERS
AND SEARCHES IN ASPECT TABLE TO
FIENTD KEY ASPECTS THIS HE KNOW
ARE DRIVING RISKS TO HAVE THAT
ASSOCIATION WITHIN THE TOOL.
THE THIRD STEP HERE IS TO
DETERMINE WHICH INSTALLATION
RISKS REQUIRE AN ENVIRONMENTAL
ACTION PLAN AND ACCORDING TO OUR
DEPARTMENT OF THE AIRFORCE
INSTRUCTION, 32-7,001 EACH BASE
IS REQUIRED TO ESTABLISH AT
LEAST ONE ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION
PLAN AND INSTALLATION RISK
MARKED AS HIGH OR EXTREMELY HIGH
SHOULD EITHER HAVE AN ASSOCIATED
EAP OR DOCUMENT JUSTIFICATION
FOR NOT HAVING AN EAP.
SO, THAT IS BASICALLY THE BASIS
OF THIS PROCESS AND THEY SHOULD
LOOK AT EAPS FOR EXTREMELY HIGH
RISKS AND CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES
THEY BELIEVE IT SHOULDN'T BE
APPROPRIATE TO DEVELOP EAP THEY
CAN DOCUMENT THAT JUSTIFICATION.
FINAL STEP HERE IS TO PRESENT
THOSE INSTALLATION RISKS AND
ASSOCIATED ASPECTS IN PLANNED
EAPS TO ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY AND
OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH COUNCIL. I
WILL SHOW AN EXAMPLE HOW
INSTALLATIONS CAN BRIEF THAT A
LITTLE LATER ON AS WELL.
HERE WE HAVE A SCREENSHOT OF THE
HOME PAGE OF E DASH OUR SHAIR
POINT PLATFORM FOR DEPARTMENT OF
EMS'S FRAMEWORK AND MR. KUMAR
MENTIONED WE OPERATE OVERALL AS
CENTRALIZED EMS IN AIRFORCE AND
APPROPRIATE FACILITIES IN
INSTALLATION LEVEL ACROSS ACTIVE
DUTIES AND SPACE FORCE AND
RESERVES ROLLING UP INTO
DASHBOARDS AND TOOLS MANAGED IN
SHAIR POINT LEVEL AND WE HAVE A
MULTI-EMS FRAMEWORK AS WELL
MANAGED BY THE AIR NATIONAL
GUARD AT THE HEADQUARTERS LEVEL.
NOW, I WILL JUMP INTO THE HOME
PAGE OF THE RISK ASPECT
INVENTORY TOOL AND THIS HOMEPAGE
PROVIDES OVERVIEW OF THE TOOL
AND POC CONTACT INFORMATION.
THE ENTERPRISE RISK TAB ON
LEFT-HAND NAVIGATION SUMMARIZES
ENTERPRISE RISK IDENTIFIED BY
THESE ACROSS THE ENVIRONMENTAL
PROGRAM AREAS AND THIS PAGE
TELLS US WHAT IS EATING OUR
LUNCH CONCEPT MR. KUMAR
MENTIONED FOR ENVIRONMENTAL
ENTERPRISE RISK AND
UNDERSTANDING BIG ROCK
CHALLENGES AND MIGHT PROVIDE
INSIGHT TO THINGS TO FOCUS ON
EACH INSTALLATION AND EACH
ENTERPRISE RISKS INCLUDES
ASSESSMENT LEVEL LOW MEDIUM HIGH
OR EXTREMELY HIGH BASED ON RISK
ASSESSMENT MATRIX PROVIDED IN
90-802.
SO, TO ACCESS INSTALLATION
INFORMATION USERS CAN CLICK ON
INSTALLATION RISK/ASPECTS
NAVIGATION TAB AND THIS TO THEY
CAN SELECT INSTALLATION OF
INTEREST AND INSTALLATION CAN
USE FILTERS AND SORT ARROWS AT
THE TOP HERE TO SEARCH FOR
INSTALLATION OF INTEREST AS
WELL.
HERE WE HAVE A SCREENSHOT OF THE
INSTALLATION MAP FEATURE.
THIS DISPLAYS INSTALLATION THAT
YOU HAVE SELECTED ON A MAP USING
GOOGLE MAPS.
YOU CAN ZOOM IN AND OUT USING
PLUS AND MINUS ARROWS AS WELL
AND IS A GREAT WAY TO GET A
VISUAL WHERE THE SPACE IS
LOCATED IN THE TOOL.
OKAY. NOW, WE ARE LOOKING AT A
SPECIFIC INSTALLATIONS PAGE
WITHIN THE TOOL AS AN EXAMPLE
AND THERE IS SAMPLE DATA
INPUTTED IN HERE THAT IS FOR ALL
AIRFORCE BASE AND EACH PROGRAM
AREA HAS THE SAME LAYOUT WITH
FOUR TABS ACROSS THE TOP THERE
IS RISKS AND ASPECTS AND PROGRAM
DETAILS AND ENFORCEMENT/FINDINGS
AND THERE IS COMMENTS.
AND THIS SCREENSHOT SHOWS THE
RISKS AND ASPECTS TAB THAT
DISPLAYS ENTERPRISE RISKS THAT
IS BIG ROCK RISKS I HAVE
IDENTIFIED ACROSS INSTALLATIONS
AND SHOWS INSTALLATION APPROVAL
SECTION THAT COULD BE USED TO
DOCUMENT ACROSS FUNCTIONAL TEAM
AND EACH COUNCIL WILL REVIEW
APPROVAL OF RISKS AND ASZ
INSPECTS AND INSTALLATION RISK
SECTION THAT IS RISKS IDENTIFIED
BY BASE ITSELF AND THERE IS ALSO
INSTALLATION ASPECTS THAT WILL
SHOW ON THE NEXT SLIDE IN DETAIL
AND THAT INCLUDES DATA PULLED
FROM AUTHORITATIVE DATA SOURCES
OR ASPECTS THAT ARE MANUALLY
ENTERED BY THE BASE.
HERE IS A CLOSE-UP OF THE
INSTALLATION ASPECTS TABLE THAT
THIS TABLE CAN BE FILTERED DOWN
TO SHOW ONLY ASPECTS THAT HAVE
BEEN IDENTIFIED AS DRIVING
INSTALLATION RISKS THAT WE HAVE
DONE HERE AND WILL SEE THERE IS
A FILTER FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
INSTALLATION AS RELATED
INSTALLATION RISK AND THERE IS
OTHER FILTERS HERE AS WELL YOU
CAN SEARCH BY SHOP,
ORGANIZATION, SUBLOCATION AND
TYPE IN SPECIFIC WORDS AND DATA
POINTS AS WELL AND STRESSING TO
INSTALLATION IMPORTANCE OF
TAGGING INSTALLATION RISK TO
APPLICABLE ASPECTS BECAUSE
RELATED INFLATION RISKS WILL
ENABLE BASIS TO SHOW LEADERSHIP
DETAILS ABOUT WHAT IS EATING
THEIR LUNCH THAT COULD BE USED
TO SHOW WHAT DRIVES INSTALLATION
RISKS.
ONE OTHER HELPFUL FEATURE WE
HAVE IN THE TOOL IS ENTERPRISE
RISK ASSESSMENT MATRICES.
THESE ARE PROGRAMS THAT ARE
SPECIFIC RISK ASSESSMENT
MATRICES FOR DIFFERENT PROGRAM
AREAS WE HAVE HERE FOR EXAMPLE
FOR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS AND KNOW
THIS IS A BIT OF AN EYE CHART
AND ON MATRIX THIS HAS MAPPED
OUT VARIOUS HAZARDOUS MATERIAL
CONDITIONS TO CELLS WITHIN THE
MATRIX AND BASIS CAN USE THIS AS
A GUIDE WHEN PERFORMING
INSTALLATIONS RISK ASSESSMENTS
AND BASIS HAVE FLEXIBILITY TO
SELECT A FREQUENCY AND SEVERITY
THAT DIFFERS FROM WHAT IS
PROVIDED ON THE MATRIX TO
REFLECT UNIQUE INSTALLATION
CIRCUMSTANCES AND FOR EXAMPLE A
CONDITION MAPPED AS NEGLIGIBLE
AND LIKELY ON ENTERPRISE RISK
ASSESSMENT MATRIX MIGHT HAVE
FREQUENT PROBABILITY ON SPECIFIC
BASE AND BASE HAS FLEXIBILITY TO
CHOOSE AND ASSESS INSTALLATION
RISK AS NEGLIGIBLE AND FREQUENT
AND AGAIN MATRIX IS MEANT FOR
GUIDANCE ONLY AND INSTALLATIONS
HAVE DISCRETION TO IDENTIFY
BASED ON UNIQUE CONDITIONS.
LAST SCREENSHOT OF THE TOOL THAT
I WANT TO SHOW YOU IS THE
REFERENCES PAGE.
THIS PAGE PROVIDES ACCESS TO THE
USER GUIDE AND VARIOUS TRAINING
MATERIALS WE HAVE AND RELEVANT
AIRFORCE'S GUIDANCE THAT IS A
HELPFUL RESOURCE FOR
INSTALLATIONS TO USE TO GET
ACCUSTOMED TO THE NEW TOOL AND
PROCESS.
HERE IS AN EXAMPLE OF A WAY TO
BRIEF YOUR RISK AND ASPECTS TO
SENIOR LEADERSHIP AT THE BASE.
SO, HERE IS A SCREENSHOT OF A
TABLE THAT COULD BE EXPORTED
FROM THE RISK ASPECT INVENTORY
TOOL FROM EXCEL AND COPIED AND
PASTED HERE IN THE POWERPOINT
AND YOU CAN SEE HERE THERE IS
DIFFERENT COLUMNS FOR RISK THEY
IDENTIFIED AND ASSESSMENT LEVEL.
WE HAVE PROGRAM AREA AND THEN
WHETHER OR NOT THEY DEVELOP AN
ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION PLAN AND IN
MIDDLE IS JUSTIFICATION COLUMN
THEY CAN TALK ABOUT WHY THEY
GIVE CERTAIN ASSESSMENT LEVEL
FOR RISK AND WHY THEY ARE
DEVELOPING AND NOT DEVELOPING
ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION PLAN FOR
THE RISK AND IS A GREAT OVERVIEW
FOR SENIOR LEADERSHIP TO SEE
WHAT IS EATING LUNCH AT
INSTALLATION AND WHETHER OR NOT
THEY WILL BE DEVELOPING AN
ENVIRONMENTAL ACTION PLAN FOR
THAT RISK.
HERE IS FURTHER ALONG AN
IDENTIFICATION EXAMPLE FOR
SHOWING THE RISK OR ASPECTS
DRIVING RISKS AND HERE WE HAVE A
LIST OF ASPECTS AND MOST OF THEM
ARE AIR QUALITY THAT THEY CAN
SPAN ALL OF THE DIFFERENT
PROGRAM AREAS AS WELL AND WE
HAVE DATA POINTS AND WHAT
SPECIFIC ASPECTS WE ARE LOOKING
AT AND COULD BE, YOU KNOW, A
TANK OR BLAST BOOTH OR A
PHYSICAL THING THAT HAS IMPACT
ON THE ENVIRONMENT AND WE HAVE A
COLUMN FOR RELATED INSTALLATION
RISK AND DATA SOURCE AND DATE
AND SOMETHING THAT COULD BE
EXPORTED FROM RISK ASPECT
INVENTORY TOOL AS AN EXCEL
SPREADSHEET AND QUICK AND
HELPFUL WAY TO SHOW TOP-LEVEL
ISSUES ARE DRIVING RISKS AT THE
BASE.
OKAY. SO, TO SUMMARIZE THE NEW
RISK ASPECT IDENTIFICATION
PROCESS AND SHAIR POINT TOOL AND
RATE TOOL WAS THE RESULT OF A
YEAR AND A HALF OF WORK AND
STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT LEADING
TO CREATION OF ENTERPRISE DATA
DRIVEN ASPECT OF IDENTIFICATION
PROCESS AND THIS PROCESS
LEVERAGES EXISTING DATA SOURCES
THAT INCORPORATES RISK THAT IS A
CONCEPT THAT IS WELL-UNDERSTOOD
BY SENIOR LEADERSHIP IN AFI FOR
RISKS INCLUDING SUBJECT MATTER
EXPERT INPUT AND REDUCES ASPECT
IDENTIFICATION SCORING AND
REPORTING BURDEN ON INSTALLATION
THAT IS ONE OF OUR MAJOR GOALS
MANAGING EMS FRAMEWORK ACROSS
THE ENTERPRISE.
SO, THAT CONCLUDES OUR
PRESENTATION.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
WE ARE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THAT WE HAVE IN THE
LAST THREE MINUTES THAT WE HAVE.
>> THANK YOU, DAVID AND WHITNEY
FOR THE REVIEW.
WHITNEY, WE HAD A COUPLE
QUESTIONS ABOUT THE TOOLS
SPECIFICALLY AND HOW OTHER
AGENCIES MIGHT BE ABLE TO BUILD
ON YOUR ACTIVITIES HERE.
ARE THERE WAYS THAT PEOPLE CAN
GET ACCESS TO A TEST SITE OR
OTHERWISE GET FAMILIAR WITH YOUR
TOOLS AND THEY MIGHT BE ABLE TO
BUILD ONE AT THEIR FACILITY?
>> SO, TO ACCESS THE TOOL ITSELF
WITHIN OUR SHAIR POINT SIDE YOU
NEED A KAK CARD AND OFF-MED
ACCOUNT AND ONE OTHER THING AND
IS USUALLY IN THE AIRFORCE YOU
CAN ACCESS IT. WE HAVE A USER
GUIDE.
I PULLED SCREENSHOTS FOR THIS
PRESENTATION AND WE CAN SEND
SCREENSHOTS OF THAT SHOWING KEY
ASPECTS OF THE TOOL TO SHOW HOW
WE INCORPORATE THE PROCESS THAT
COULD BE A GOOD RESOURCE IF
PEOPLE WOULD LIKE TO TAKE A LOOK
AT IT TO IMPLEMENT THAT FOR OWN
EMS FRAMEWORKS AND WE CAN'T -- I
DON'T THINK ANYONE OUTSIDE OF
THE AIRFORCE COULD GET INTO THE
SYSTEM BUT WE HAVE A USER GUIDE
WE CAN SHARE.
>> UNDERSTANDABLE.
THANK YOU.
>> WE RECEIVED A QUESTION FROM
HEATHER RICHFORD AT THE NAVY.
I'M HOPING TO PASTE THAT INTO
THE CHAT THAT IS A LITTLE BIT OF
A LONG QUESTION.
THE GIST OF IT, I BELIEVE, IS
THAT WHAT YOU HAVE PRESENTED IS
VERY INSTALLATION-SPECIFIC AND
WAYS TO USE TOOL TO TRANSMIT
BEST PRACTICES AINSTALLATIONS
AND HOW INSTALLATIONS LEARN FROM
EACH OTHER'S SUCCESS.
>> GREAT QUESTION.
TOOL IS DESIGNED WITH OPEN
PERMISSION STRUCTURE AND ANYONE
WITH ACCESS TO OUR SITE CAN TAKE
A LOOK AT OWN INSTALLATIONS IN
THE TOOL AND SEE WHAT
INSTALLATIONS HAVE IDENTIFIED AS
THEIR RISKS AND ASPECTS THEY
TAGGED TO THE RISKS THAT IS
BUILT TO HELP WITH COLLABORATION
TO RISKS TO SEE WHAT OTHER
INSTALLATIONS ARE DOG AS FAR AS
IDENTIFYING THEIR RISKS THAT WE
HAVE VARIOUS REPORTING
FUNCTIONALITIES AND WILL DEVELOP
MORE IN THE NEXT FEW PHASE
IMPROVEMENTS HELPING TO GIVE A
NICE OVERVIEW WHAT TOP RISKS ARE
BEING IDENTIFIED ACROSS
INSTALLATIONS THAT IS ANOTHER
GOOD WAY TO SHOW WHAT IS DRIVING
MOST RISK ACROSS THE ENTERPRISE
TO SEE WHAT WAYS TO USE TO
IMPROVE RISKS ACROSS THE
AIRFORCE.
>> I MENTIONED WE ARE USING
SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTS TO BUILD
THAT RISK MATRIX FROM ENTERPRISE
PERSPECTIVE INSTALLATIONS TO USE
AND BUILD THEIR OWN RISK MATRIX.
DOES THAT CONTINUOUS FEEDBACK
BACK AND FORTH IS A LOOP.
EVERY TIME THIS NEEDS AN UPDATE
WHAT WE ARE SEEING IS AN
ENTERPRISE RISK MATRIX FROM THE
NEEDS PERSPECTIVE THAT IS
CROSS-FED ACROSS THE ENTERPRISE
AND INSTALLATION TO INSTALLATION
AND UP TO THE LEADERSHIP AT OUR
HALF LEVEL AS WELL.
OVER.
>> THANK YOU.
>> WE HAVE A COUPLE MORE
QUESTIONS THAT ARE COMING IN
ABOUT THE TOOL.
ONE, THE USER GUIDE THAT I THINK
WE HAVE FOLKS WHO WOULD BE
INTERESTED IN THAT AND PERHAPS
WE CAN REVIEW THAT CONTACT
INFORMATION AND YOU CAN PERHAPS
SHARE USER GUIDE THAT IS
AVAILABLE.
WITH REGARD TO THE SHAIR POINT
SITE THAT YOU DEVELOPED, DID YOU
TIE THAT TO OTHER IT SYSTEMS OR
IS THIS SYSTEM THAT YOU
DEVELOPED CONTAINED WITHIN ONE
TOOL?
>> SO, THE RISK ASPECT INVENTORY
TOOL IS A TOOL WITHIN EDASH,
WHICH IS ITS OWN SHAIR POINT
SITE THAT IS NOT DIRECTLY
CONNECTED TO ANY OTHER SHAIR
POINT SITES AND THERE ARE
INSTANCES WE CAN MAKE
CONNECTIONS TO THINGS THAT ARE
RELATED TO ENVIRONMENTAL.
AS IT STANDS, EDASH IS ITS OWN
SHAIR POINT SITE WITH VARIOUS
TOOLS AND DASHBOARDS WITHIN IT.
>> GOT IT. THANK YOU. ONE
SPECIFIC QUESTION WE HAD WAS
ABOUT YOUR PROPERTY INVENTORY.
DID -- WERE THERE OTHER DATA
SOURCES THAT YOU DREW UPON TO
TIE YOUR INSTALLATIONS TO OTHER
INVENTORIES?
DID YOU CREATE THAT INVENTORY
FROM SCRATCH IN THE TOOL?
>> SO, YEAH. THE BASIS OF THIS
TOOL WAS TO HELP PULL IN SOURCES
THAT WERE ALREADY CREATED FROM
OTHER DATA SOURCES, SUCH AS
ESOMIS FOR DATA CALLS AND EAS
PULLED FROM A TRACKER WE USE
WITHIN EDASH TO TRACK EAS AND IF
EXISTING SOMEWHERE ELSE, WE TRY
TO PULL IT IN AUTOMATICALLY SO
USERS DON'T HAVE TO ALREADY
RETYPE IN ASPECTS WHEN
IDENTIFYING RISKS AND LOTS OF
AUTHORITATIVE DATA SOURCES WE
PULL FROM TO ENTER DATA POINTS
INTO THE TOOL.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR THAT PRESENTATION.
AGAIN, I THINK THAT THIS TOOL IS
OBVIOUSLY OF INTEREST TO A
NUMBER OF PEOPLE.
HOPEFULLY WE CAN SPREAD YOUR
GOOD WORK ELSEWHERE WITHIN THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
WITH THAT, THAT WRAPS UP THIS
SECTION OF OUR TRACK ON
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND WE WILL
TAKE ABOUT A 15 MINUTE BREAK.
I ENCOURAGE PEOPLE TO COME BACK
AT THE BOTTOM OF THE HOUR TO
HEAR FROM OUR NEXT TWO
PRESENTERS, ONE FROM [INAUDIBLE]
AND THE OTHER FROM THE VA.
SO, I HOPE YOU WILL JOIN US
THEN. I LOOK FORWARD TO SHARING
MORE WITH YOU AS THE DAY GOES
ON.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO A RUNDOWN WHAT I WILL
COVER IS WE DECIDED ON 50,001
AND ABOUT OUR PROCESS AND
ALIGNING WITH 14,001 AND
BENEFITS WE HAVE SEEN WITH THE
PROGRAM AND WHAT WE SEE ON THE
HORIZON AND QUESTION AND ANSWER
AND WE CAN WAIT UNTIL THE END OF
THAT AND I TALK PRETTY QUICKLY
SO HOPEFULLY WE CAN MAKE UP TIME
AND WHY 50,001? STRATEGY TO
SUPPORT SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM
AND CLIMATE ACTION AND
CONTINUING IMPROVEMENT THEORY
AROUND FIST THOUSAND 1 AND
CONTINUING TO REDUCE
ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPRINTS AND
EFFICIENCY CONTRIBUTES TO
REDUCING GREENHOUSE GASES AND
SAW IT AS A ROBUST FRAMEWORK TO
HELP US ENGAGE LEADERSHIP
SUPPORT AND PROVIDE RIGOR AND
DOCUMENTATION AND ESTABLISH
PROCESSES TO IMPROVE OUR
PROGRAM. WE SAW IT AS A WAY TO
BE PERSISTENT TO ALLOW US TO
MONITOR AND MAINTAIN SAVINGS
OVER TIME AND IT ALLOWED US TO
FIND A WAY TO REALLY ALIGN WORK
THAT WE WERE DOING WITH THE
ORGANIZATION.
WE BEGAN IN 2017 AND WE
INCREMENTALLY IMPLEMENTED THE
PROGRAM.
ESTABLISHING PROCESSES ONE AT A
TIME OPPOSE THE TO FLIPPING A
SWITCH ON AND STARTING IT ONCE
AND ALLOWED US TO REALLY
INTEGRATE INTO THE ORGANIZATION
AND WE WILL RECOGNIZE AS 50,001
READY IN JUNE OF 2020 AND WERE
OFFICIALLY CERTIFIED. THERE IS
A CERTIFICATE THERE TO 50,001 IN
SEPTEMBER AND WE SINCE HAVE
RECEIVED A COUPLE OF AWARDS.
THE KEY COMPONENTS OF 50,001 IF
YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH IT, IT
REQUIRES AN ENENEARRGY TEAM OF
PEOPLE TO IMPLEMENT YOUR PROGRAM
FOCUSED ON EDGE EARTH JI
EFFICIENCY AND HAVING OBJECTIVES
AND TARGETS TO MEET AND
ESTABLISHING METRICS TO TRACK
IMPROVEMENTS FOR TARGETS AND
DRAWING A SCOPE AROUND WHAT YOU
WILL MANAGE AND SHOULD BE
SOMETHING YOU CAN MONITOR AND
YOU HAVE TO ENGAGE LEADERSHIP
SUPPORT AND ESTABLISH A POLICY
TO ENSURE THAT PROGRAMS WILL
CONTINUE OVER TIME AND YOU
ENGAGE THE ORGANIZATION.
YOU NEED A REGULAR COMMUNICATION
AND EVALUATION FRAMEWORK.
FINALLY, ALTHOUGH THIS IS NOT A
REQUIREMENT OF THE STANDARD, WE
SEE IT AS ONE THAT IS ABSOLUTELY
ESSENTIAL THAT IS HAVING AN
ONLINE MANUAL TO DOCUMENT YOUR
ENTIRE SYSTEM TO HELP GUIDE YOUR
PROGRAM. I WILL TALK MORE ABOUT
THAT.
THERE IS A NUMBER OF KEY
COMPONENTS TO 50,001.
THERE IS -- SORRY. UNIQUE
ASPECTS ON OUR PROGRAM WE
VOLUNTARILY SOUGHT CERTIFICATION
TO MEET THAT LAST 20% TO
ESTABLISH RIGOR OF THE PROGRAM
AND HAVE AN ONGOING COMMISSION
TEAM TO MONITOR BUILDINGS FOR
PROBLEMS AND IMPROVE THEM AND WE
USE A PROGRAM CALLED SKY SPARK
AN ANALYTICAL SOFTWARE THAT
VISUALIZES BUILDING SYSTEM
OPERATIONS TO HELP US TO
IDENTIFY AND CORRECT AND
MAINTAIN SAVINGS OVER TIME AND
MONITOR FOR ANY BUILDING ISSUES.
WE HAVE CHOSEN TO INCORPORATE
WATER INTO 50,001 PROGRAM AND
CALL IT THE ENERGY AND WATER
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AS OPPOSED TO
ENERGY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM YOU
MIGHT HEAR TYPICALLY FOR 50,001.
WE ALIGNED WITH 14,001 AS WELL
AS SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM WE
WILL TALK ABOUT TOO AND FINALLY
WE HAVE A WIDE ARRAY OF OUR
METRICS AVAILABLE ONLINE AND WE
ARE VERY TRANSPARENT ABOUT OUR
PERFORMANCE AND THERE IS A
SNAPSHOT OF OUR WEBSITE WHERE WE
POST THOSE.
I WILL SHOW YOU IT AT THE END.
I MENTIONED A MANUAL BEING A
CRITICAL PIECE OF OUR SYSTEM
THAT IS A CENTRAL AND ONLINE
REFERENCE GUIDING DAY-TO-DAY
OPERATIONS.
IT ALIGNS THROUGH EVERY ONE OF
THE 50,001 REQUIREMENTS AND WE
USE IT DAY-TO-DAY TO LINK OUT
ALL PROCESSES AND PROCEDURES AND
OUR DATA AND IT IS REALLY A
HEART OF OUR PROGRAM AND PLACE
WHERE EVERYTHING STARTS AND
HELPS TO ENSURE THAT THINGS
HAPPEN CONTINUALLY AND THERE IS
CONSISTENCY AND WE HAVE TEAM
MEMBERS JOIN AND READ THE MANUAL
AND WE JUST GOT IT. WE WERE
ABLE TO REALLY GET STARTED AND
WHAT WE WERE AIMING FOR.
50,001 REALLY WANTS TO BE A
PROGRAM THAT DOESN'T RELY ON ONE
OR TWO PEOPLE.
IF THOSE PEOPLE LEAVE YOUR
ORGANIZATION, THE SYSTEM LIVES
ON WHICH IS REALLY THE GOAL.
OF COURSE, WE KEEP THIS UPDATED
REGULARLY AND WE ARE USING IT
REGULARLY AND WE ARE CATCHING
THINGS AND IMPROVING IT AS WE GO
AND THINGS CHANGE AND WE
IMPROVE.
THIS IS THE SNAPSHOT OF OUR
COMMUNICATIONS.
IT IS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR
COMMUNICATIONS AND EVALUATION
AND EACH MONTH WE HAVE A SPRINT
REVIEW.
THIS IS A TACTICAL MEETING WHERE
WE LOOK AT ISSUES AND
IMPROVEMENTS WE WANT TO WORK ON
IN THE COMING MONTH.
WE REVIEW WHAT WE HAVE DONE LAST
MONTH.
WE HAVE A QUARTERLY TEAM REVIEW
THAT IS THE ENERGY AND WATER
TEAM AND WE CALL IT CORE TEAM
AND THEY ARE SUBJECT MATTER
EXPERTS FROM ACROSS THE
ORGANIZATION THAT REVIEW NOT
ONLY OUR SYSTEM AND HOW IT IS
FUNCTIONING BUT ALSO PERFORMANCE
FOR OUR TARGETS AND 50,001
REQUIRES A MANAGEMENT REVIEW
THAT WE DO ANNUALLY WHICH IS AN
OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW
PERFORMANCE WITH THEM AND GIVE
THEM AN OPPORTUNITY TO LOOK AT
RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES TO THE
SYSTEM AND TO GAIN LEADERSHIP
SUPPORT.
50,001 ALSO REQUIRES AN INTERNAL
AUDIT THAT WE DO ALSO ANNUALLY
AND WE CALL IT A FRIENDLY
REVIEW.
WE WANT PEOPLE TO REALLY SURFACE
ISSUES WE CAN ADDRESS BEFORE WE
HAVE OUR EXTERNAL AND FORMAL
THIRD-PARTY AUDIT.
SO, HERE IS THINGS I WANTED TO
HIGHLIGHT WE THINK ARE REALLY
IMPORTANT FOR A SUCCESSFUL
IMPLEMENTATION.
ESTABLISHING A REALISTIC
TIMEFRAME SO YOU CAN GET THINGS
DONE AND HAVE THEM BE WORKING
BEFORE YOU CALL IT DONE.
ALLOCATING RESOURCES IS ALSO
ESSENTIAL.
THIS IS A VERY FRONT-LOADED
PROCESS AND THERE IS WORK UP
FRONT TO GET THINGS ESTABLISH
THE AND WAUNT TO MAKE SURE YOU
HAVE PEOPLE DEDICATED AND FUNDS
AVAILABLE TO MAKE THAT HAPPEN.
AS I MENTIONED, THE MANUAL IS
CRITICAL.
ANOTHER PHILOSOPHY THAT WE
REALLY APPLIED TO OUR
IMPLEMENTATION WAS FOCUSING NOT
ONLY ON MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS
OF THE STANDARD AND MAKING SURE
THAT PROCEDURES WE PUT IN PLACE
PROVIDED INTRINSIC VALUE TO THE
ORGANIZATION AND IF PEOPLE SAW
VALUE IN THEM THEY WOULD DO THEM
AND IF THEY SAW VALUE, THEY
WOULD CONTINUE. WE DIDN'T WANT
ANYTHING WE WERE DOING TO JUST
CHECK THE BOX BUT WANTED
SOMETHING THAT PEOPLE WOULD FEEL
GOOD ABOUT DOING AND GETTING
TRAINING, I THINK, IS ESSENTIAL
AND EVERYONE ON THE TEAM WENT
THROUGH FORMAL 50,001 TRAINING
TO UNDERSTAND WHY WE ARE DOING
THIS AND WHAT REQUIREMENTS WERE
AND WE ALSO HAD COACHING TO GET
US THROUGH IMPLEMENTATION AND
REALLY TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE
UNDERSTANDING AND DOING THINGS
WELL.
WE ESTABLISHED LEADERSHIP
COMMITMENT EARLY IN THE PROCESS
THAT MADE SURE THAT WE COULD
KEEP THE MOMENTUM UP AND MAKE
SURE THAT WE HAD RESOURCES AND
ALSO THE ORGANIZATIONAL
ATTENTION SO THAT WE COULD ALIGN
OUR PROCESSES AND INTEGRATE INTO
THE ORGANIZATION.
I MENTIONED ALSO OUR STRUCTURED
REVIEWS AND COMMUNICATION.
SO, OUR ALIGNMENT BETWEEN 14
THOUSAND 1 AND 50 THOUSAND 1 HAS
A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT COMPONENTS
TO IT AND A KEY THING WE STARTED
IT DO BOTH STANDARDS REQUIRE A
MANAGEMENT REVIEW, WE DO IT
TOGETHER AND HAVE A REVIEW THAT
IS SAME PEOPLE AND RELATED
TOPICS AND JUST MAKES SENSE.
WE ALSO HAVE REGULAR MEETINGS OF
MYSELF AND 50,001 PROGRAM
MANAGER AND 14 THOUSAND,0014,001.
WE REVIEW EACH OTHER'S ANNUAL
REPORTS AND REVIEW TO THEM
BEFORE THEY ARE SUBMITTED AND
CORE TEAMS HAVE MEMBERS FROM THE
OTHER TEAM.
THIS IS A SNAPSHOT OF OUR
PRESENTATION MANAGEMENT REVIEW
THIS IS HOW WE LOOK AT
COORDINATION FOR THE TEAMS AND.
YOU CAN SEE COLUMNS FOR 14,001
AND 50,001 AND BOXED SQUARELY
PART OF SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAM
AND MATRIX SHOWS HOW THE
ORGANIZATION REALLY THINKS
ENVIRONMENTAL AND SUSTAINABILITY
ISSUES THAT WE MAKE SURE THEY
ARE ALL COVERED.
THEY ARE ALL COVERED IN THE
MANAGEMENT REVIEW.
SO, HOW ARE WE DOING?
THEY -- 50,001 HAS NO DOUBT MADE
US MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN MANY,
MANY WAYS AND AS FAR AS ACTUAL
ENERGY AND WATER PERFORMANCE AND
WE ARE USING LESS ENERGY AND OUR
ENERGY INTENSITY IS DOWN AND
GREENHOUSE GASES ARE WAY DOWN.
AND EACH YEAR WE SAVE OVER $1
MILLION IN UTILITY BILLS BECAUSE
WE ARE MAINTAINING SAVINGS.
WE HAVE A HIGH PERFORMANCE
COMPUTING FACILITY NARS AND
POWER USE EFFECTIVENESS THAT WE
ARE MAINTAINING AT .108 SO BELOW
.1 AND WE HAVE A NUMBER OF
OPERATIONAL BENEFITS.
WE HAVE BUILT MORE SUPPORT FOR
SUSTAINABILITY FOR 50,001.
REPUTATION OF ISOIS VERY
COMPELLING AND OUR CERTIFICATION
REALLY SHOWS WE ARE SERIOUS.
WE HAVE BEEN VERY TRANSPARENT IN
OUR APPROACH AND DEMONSTRATED
RESULTS AND THIS DEFINITELY HAS
GOTTEN PEOPLE'S ATTENTION.
WE ARE MORE PRODUCTIVE AND IT
TAKES TIME TO SET UP THE PROGRAM
AND BY GAINING BUY-IN, YOU GET
PEOPLE WORKING IN THE SAME
DIRECTION.
BY CONTINUALLY STREAMLINING,
EVERYONE IS MORE EFFICIENT.
WE ARE ALSO MORE EFFECTIVE AND
BECAUSE YOU HAVE THIS PROGRAM
THAT HAS ESTABLISHED ANALYTICAL
EVALUATIVE PROCESSES ON A
REGULAR BASIS, WE CATCH THINGS
EARLY AND HAVE A PROCESS IN
PLACE TO ADDRESS AND CORRECT
PROBLEMS WE FIND.
I KNOW THAT I'M STRESSING IT IS
A LOT BUT CENTRALIZED MANUAL
HELPS US TO BE MORE
COMPREHENSIVE AND CONSISTENT
OVER TIME AND THERE WERE OTHER
SPILLOVER BENEFITS TO OTHER
PARTS OF THE ORGANIZATION IN
RESILIENCE, FOR EXAMPLE. THE
EVALUATION PROCESSES WE PUT IN
PLACE ARE BEING USED TO OPTIMIZE
BUILDING VENTILATION AND FOR
EXAMPLE WITH COVID AND MORE
OUTSIDE AIR, WE ARE ABLE TO DO
THAT.
THERE IS TIMES IN CALIFORNIA
WHERE WE HAVE WILDFIRE SMOKE YOU
DON'T WANT SO MUCH OUTSIDE AIR.
ALSO IN CALIFORNIA, WE OFTEN
HAVE SHUTDOWNS IN THE STATE AND
SOMETIMES THEY EFFECT THE LAB.
BEING ABLE TO RESTART SYSTEMS
AFTER THAT QUICKLY BY BEING ABLE
TO EVALUATE HOW THEY ARE DOING
MAKES A LOT OF SENSE AND IS
SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN A
BENEFIT OF OUR PROGRAM.
WE ARE ALSO ABLE TO MANAGE AND
MONITOR OUR NEW BUILDINGS AND
TUNE IN TO THE EXPECTED
PERFORMANCE AND ACTUALLY EXCEED
OUR EXPECTED PERFORMANCE AND
ABLE TO REALLY PROVE THAT
BUILDINGS THAT ARE MORE
EFFICIENT ARE MORE EFFECTIVE AND
MORE COMFORTABLE.
SO, S AS FAR AS WHAT IS NEXT WE
ARE LOOKING TO APPLY OUR
FRAMEWORK NOW THAT WE ARE
APPLYING TO ENERGY AND WATER AND
LOOKING TO APPLY TO GREENHOUSE
GASES AND WE KNOW THAT CLIMATE
ACTION IS HUGE AND SOMETHING WE
HAVE TO BE FOCUSED ON THAT IS
ENERGY AND GREENHOUSE GASES THAT
ARE RELATED AND WE HAVE SUCCESS
WITH 50,001.
WE HAVE VALUE HERE AND EXPLORE
FURTHER INTEGRATION OF 4
THOUSAND 1 AND 50 THOUSAND 1
PROGRAMS FOR TRYING TO FIND WAYS
TO JOIN OUR INTERNAL AUDIT
PROGRAMS TOGETHER AND SEE WHERE
WE CAN GET BENEFIT AND COMBINING
FORCES THERE.
AS FAR AS CLIMATE ACTION WE FEEL
LIKE THE 50,001 PROGRAM
IMPLEMENTING IT HAS POSITIONED
US TO BE READY TO ATTACK THE
EXECUTIVE ORDER AND REALLY TO GO
FOR THOSE TARGETS AND WE HAVE
SUCH STRONG PROCESSES IN PLACE
FOR MONITORING OUR PERFORMANCE
AND MEASURING IT AND IMPROVING
IT THAT WE FEEL VERY EXCITED TO
GET STARTED ON THAT.
FOR OUR PERFORMANCE AND
SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM AND AWARENESS
WE HAVE RAISE THE WE HAVE GOTTEN
SUPPORT FOR CLIMATE ACTION SUCH
AS ELECTRIFICATION NOT JUST
FLEET BUT BUILDING AND THAT IS
ON THE HORIZON.
THAT IS MY PRESENTATION.
THIS IS A QR CODE TO GET TO
IS-O50 THOUSAND WEBSITE AND
FINDING THE MANUAL THAT IS
PUBLIC AND IF INTERESTED IT IS
INTERESTED TO SEE HOW OTHERS
HAVE DONE IT AND IS USEFUL TO
YOU AND CONTACT INFORMATION IS
THERE AND HAVE A COUPLE LINKS.
ONE IS DATA AND GRAPHS WEBSITE I
MENTIONED AS WELL AS WHERE WE
POST OUR ANNUAL REPORTS TO
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY AS WELL AS
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA.
AND WITH THAT, I WILL TAKE
QUESTIONS.
>> THANKS VERY MUCH, KAREN.
I APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION
AND THINK THAT YOUR
FACILITY-LEVEL EXAMPLE OF 50,001
AND 14,001 WORKING TOGETHER AND
EFFECTIVENESS YOU HAVE SEEN IN
USING 50,001, TO ME, IS A REAL
BEST PRACTICE THAT OTHERS IN THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE
ABLE TO EMULATE IN GREAT SUCCESS
AND APPRECIATE INFORMATION THAT
YOU HAVE WROTE.
JUST AS A REMINDER, THE LINK TO
SEND E-MAIL THAT ALLOWS US TO
REVIEW QUESTIONS SHOULD BE IN
YOUR WEB VIEWER.
YOU MIGHT NEED TO SCROLL DOWN A
LITTLE BIT ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE
TOWARDS THE BOTTOM AND WE
CURRENTLY HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED
QUESTIONS ABOUT YOU KNOW THERE
IS A BUFFER BETWEEN THE TIME
THAT THE QUESTIONS ARE SENT AND
TIME THAT WE RECEIVED THEM AND
CAN HAVE THEM PROCESSED.
WHILE WE WAIT FOR ANY QUESTIONS
TO COME IN, KAREN, I'M STRUCK BY
THE DEGREE TO WHICH LVL SEEMS TO
HAVE MADE AN EFFORT TO MAKE ALL
THIS DATA SO PUBLIC.
WAS THAT -- CAN YOU TELL US A
LITTLE MORE ABOUT THAT?
WHY POST ALL OF THESE THINGS SO
PUBLICLY?
>> YEAH. I THINK THAT AS A
NATIONAL LAB, WE HAVE A
RESPONSIBILITY TO SHARE WHAT WE
LEARNED AND AS BROADLY AS
POSSIBLE AND THINK THAT, THAT
PHILOSOPHY REALLY FED OUR
INTEREST IN MAKING SURE THAT WE
COULD PROVIDE BENEFIT OUTSIDE OF
THE LAB AND TO REALLY SHARE OUR
EXPERIENCE AND TO BE TRANSPARENT
AND I THINK THAT, THAT
TRANSPARENCY ALSO MAKES US
BETTER.
WE KNOW THAT PEOPLE ARE
WATCHING.
I THINK BOTH OF THEM MADE A BIG
DIFFERENCE IN THAT CHOICE.
SORRY. YOU WOULD THINK I WOULD
BE GOOD WITH MUTING.
WE HAVE RECEIVED A NUMBER OF
QUESTIONS DURING OUR PANEL TODAY
ABOUT THE PRESENTATIONS AND
WHETHER THEY WILL BE MADE
AVAILABLE TO PARTICIPANTS AND
FOR THE MOST PART, THE
PRESENTATIONS WILL BE MADE
PUBLICLY AVAILABLE ON THE FED
CENTER WEBSITE AND ARE AVAILABLE
FOR DOWNLOAD THAT IS, HOWEVER,
AT THE INDIVIDUAL PRESENTER'S
DISCRETION.
THERE WILL BE A FEW
PRESENTATIONS THAT ARE NOT
AVAILABLE BUT BELIEVE THAT THE
BULK OF THEM SHOULD BE AND YOU
CAN CHECK THINGS OUT THAT WAY
AND FIND THOSE PRESENTATIONS ON
THE FED CENTER WHEN YOU ARE
DONE.
>> I HAVE SUBMITTED MINE.
IT SHOULD BE AVAILABLE.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU.
>> WE HAVE A QUESTION ABOUT AN
ISO50,001 MANUAL.
IT IS NOT CLEAR TO ME IF THE
QUESTIONER IS REFERRING TO THE
LBL MANNUL OR MANUAL ABOUT
50,001 MORE BROADLY AND FIRST,
AM I CORRECT, KAREN, THAT THE
MANUAL YOU REFERENCED IS
AVAILABLE PUBLICLY?
>> YES. YES, IT IS.
>> ALL RIGHT. SECOND, TO
GUIDING PEOPLE THROUGH 50,001
AND ITS VARIOUS COMPONENTS, I
WOULD REFERENCE THE DOE
SPONSORED PROGRAM 50,001 READY
AND WEB-BASED TOOL NAVIGATOR TO
HELP PEOPLE UNDERSTAND AND WORK
THROUGH WHAT IS ALL INVOLVED IN
IMPLEMENTING ENERGY MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM LIKE 50 THOUSAND 1.
LINK FOR THAT IS NAVIGATOR
LBL.GOV AND ISO ITSELF SELLS
THAT STANDARD AVAILABLE FROM THE
ISO WEBSITE. SO --
I BELIEVE.
>> UNLESS YOU HAVE ANOTHER
QUESTION I DID WANT TO TALK
ABOUT THE MANUAL FOR A MOMENT
AND WE MAKE IT AVAILABLE.
IT IS A LABOR OF LOVE AND WORK
IN PROGRESS THAT WE ARE
CONSTANTLY IMPROVING AND IS HARD
TO GET STARTED AND WE ARE HOPING
THAT BY LOOKING AT THE MANUAL
THAT WE HAVE, IT WILL HELP
PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHAT IT MEANS
TO IMPLEMENT 50,001 AND USING
AND ADAPTING TO YOUR OWN
ORGANIZATION OF COURSE AND
50,001 COULD BE DAUNTING FROM
YOUR EXPERIENCE AND SEEING HOW
OTHER PEOPLE HAVE IMPLEMENTED WE
HOPE IT WILL ENCOURAGE MORE
PEOPLE TO DO IT AND WE THINK IT
IS A GREAT WAY TO GET TO YOUR
ENERGY TARGETS AND IN OUR CASE
WATER TARGETS AND HOPEFULLY
GREENHOUSE GAS TARGETS THAT WE
LOVE TALKING ABOUT IT AND WE
REALLY LIKE SHARING IT.
WE REALLY WANT THIS TO BE
SOMETHING THAT INSPIRES OTHER
PEOPLE TO DO 50,001 AS WELL.
>> THANK YOU, KAREN.
GREAT POINT.
YOU KNOW, I HAD A QUESTION THAT
WAS ABOUT THE LABORATORIES
ENERGY CONSUMING FACILITIES.
IT IS AT THE LBL AND THERE ARE
PARTICLE ACCELERATORS AND
NATIONAL ENERGY RESEARCH
SUPER-COMPUTING CENTERS IT THAT
IS VERY ESOTERIC AND
IDIOSYNCRATIC ENERGY LOADS.
HAVE YOU FOUND IT PROBLEMATIC TO
IDENTIFY ENERGY AND WATER SAVING
OPPORTUNITIES IN THE CONTEXT OF
VERY UNUSUAL SYSTEMS?
>> THAT IS A GREAT QUESTION AND
ONE THING THAT 50,001 REQUIRES
IS YOU IDENTIFY YOUR SIGNIFICANT
ENERGY USE OR USES.
THAT COULD BE EITHER A PROCESS
OR FACILITY.
IN OUR CASE, OUR LARGEST ENERGY
USE AND WATER USE IS OUR
HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING
CENTER THAT IS AT LEAST 1/3 OF
OUR ENERGIES RIGHT NOW.
AND BECAUSE IT IS
HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING AND
IS SUCH AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THE
LAB RATTORY AND RESEARCH
WORLDWIDE, IT WILL CONTINUE TO
GROW IN TERMS OF THE
CAPABILITIES.
SO, WE ARE FOCUSED VERY HEAVILY
ON IT.
WE ARE PARTNERED VERY CLOSELY
WITH THE LEADERSHIP AND IN THE
HIGH-PERFORMANCE COMPUTING
CENTER.
THROUGH OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH
THEM, WE HAVE FOUND SO MANY
GREAT WAYS TO MONITOR AND MANAGE
AND IMPROVE BOTH THE COMPUTE AND
NON-COMPUTE LOAD.
SO, YEAH. IT IS ACTUALLY THAT
WE FOUND 50,001 IS A GREAT
ENTRAY TO GET US TO LOOK AT AND
FIND CREATIVE WAYS TO IMPROVE
ENERGIES OF OUR HIGH-ENERGY
USING FACILITIES.
>> THANK YOU.
>> ONE FINAL QUESTION THAT WE
HAVE HAD COME IN.
WE HAVE SOMEBODY WHO IS
INTERESTED IN THE SKY SPARK
TOOL.
COULD YOU ELABORATE MORE ON THAT
TOOL AND HOW IT IS USED?
>> ABSOLUTELY.
SO, SKY SPARK, I WILL TRY NOT TO
BE TOO TECHNICAL ABOUT THIS, BUT
IT IS A SOFTWARE PLAT FORTH
ALLOWING YOU TO PULL IN BUILDING
SSH SYSTEMS DATA AND VISUALIZE
THAT DATA IN A VARIETY OF
DIFFERENT WAYS.
THAT MEANS YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO
INTO EVERY BUILDING SYSTEM TO
SEE WHAT IS GOING ON AND YOU CAN
PULL DISPARATE SYSTEMS IN SKY
SPARK AND SEEING AIR HANDLERS
DOESN'T MATTER WHAT SYSTEM THEY
ARE MANAGED IN AND THAT ALLOWS
YOU TO SET UP NOT ONLY
VISUALIZATIONS WHAT IS GOING ON
WHERE YOU SEE A LOT OF ACTIVITY
WHERE THERE SHOULDN'T BE
OVERNIGHT OR WHAT HAVE YOU.
YOU GET VERY COLORFUL GRAPHICS
DEMONSTRATING WHERE YOU HAVE
HOTSPOTS AND THINGS ARE NOT
GOING WELL AND ALLOWS YOU TO SET
UP VERY STRATEGIC MONITORING
THAT IS CALLED SPARKS THAT THESE
ARE ALARMS AND IF FAMILIAR WITH
BUILDING SYSTEMS YOU KNOW THERE
IS SO MANY ALARMS HAPPENING IT
IS IMPOSSIBLE TO PULL OUT ONES
THAT ARE IMPORTANT AND SKY SPARK
ALLOWS YOU TO ESTABLISH VERY
CRITICAL THINGS YOU WANT TO
MONITOR.
IF YOU HAVE IMPROVED SOMETHING,
IMPROVED AND TUNED A BUILDING,
MONITOR IT AND MAKE SURE IT
DOESN'T GET OUTSIDE OF THE
PARAMETERS THAT YOU HAVE SAID
AND YOU GET ALERTS IF IT
DOESN'T.
IT IS FABULOUS FOR BOTH
IDENTIFYING PROBLEMS BY
VISUALIZING WHAT IS GOING ON IN
YOUR BUILDING SYSTEMS ACROSS
YOUR WHOLE PORTFOLIO.
IT ALSO ALLOWS YOU TO MAINTAIN
CONTROL OVER THAT OVER TIME BY
HAVING IT MONITOR WHAT IS
HAPPENING AFTER YOU HAVE FIXED
IT AND WELCOME ANYONE INTERESTED
TO REACH OUT TO ME AND I CAN
CONNECT YOU WITH SOMEONE WHO CAN
TALK A LITTLE MORE ABOUT IT AND
DON'T WORK IN DAY-TO-DAY MYSELF
AND IT IS A CRITICAL TOOL THAT
IS VERY, VERY POPULAR.
IT IS PUBLICLY AVAILABLE AND
PURCHASABLE.
YEAH. I NOTICED THERE IS A
QUESTION ABOUT THAT. YEAH. WE
ARE AT TIME, I THINK, BUT YEAH.
REACH OUT AND I AM HAPPY TO
CONNECT YOU TO LEARN MORE ABOUT
IT.
OTHER MEMBERS OF MY TEAM DO
PRESENTATIONS ON IT, SO THAT
MIGHT BE A GOOD WAY TO LEARN AS
WELL.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH, KAREN.
I APPRECIATE YOUR PRESENTATION
>> WELCOME BACK. I'M THE TRACK
LEAD HOST FOR THE DAY DR. CHRIS
PAYNE AND IN THE WORKSHOP
TO DISCUSS NEXUS APPROACH TO
FACILITY MANAGEMENT THAT HAS
BEEN DEVELOPED AT DHS AND
PRESENTING TODAY IS FOUR FOLKS
THAT WILL WORK US THROUGH THE
WOK SHOP MATERIAL AND FIRST FROM
DHS DR. PAT HERINGTON WITH OVER
30 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN ENERGY
MANAGEMENT RESILIENCE AND
ENVIRONMENTAL RESTORATION AND
WASTE MANAGEMENT AND
ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING THAT SHE
HAS DONE AT FEDERAL AND STATE
GOVERNMENT LEVEL THAT MANAGES
DEVELOPMENT OF DHS BUILDING
ASSESSMENT TOOL FOR INTEGRATING
ASSESSMENTS AND DEVELOPING
POLICY GUIDANCE AND TRAINING FOR
DHS ENJIRJ RESILIENCE AND
SUSTAINABILITY PROGRAMS AND IN
ADDITION TO PHD SHE IS A
RESIDENTIAL MANAGER AND LEAD AP
AND JOINING TODAY IS THREE
MEMBERS OF TERRY'S GROUP
[INAUDIBLE] LINDSEY AND AL I ALI
SCHMIDT PRACHLT I BLANKED ON
YOUR NAME. THEY HAVE GREAT
DEALS IN SUPPORTING
ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY AND
IMPLEMENTATION IN THE FEDERAL
SECTOR AND WITH THAT I WILL TURN
IT TO THE TEAM AND LOOK FORWARD
TO HEARING FROM YOU ABOUT YOUR
WORKSHOP AND ONE NOTE BEFORE WE
GET STARTED FOR THOSE VIEWING
PLEASE DO USE BUTTON IN LOWER
LEFT CORNER OF VIEWING WINDOW TO
PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO PRESENTERS
TO ASK QUESTIONS AS WE GO THAT
WILL BE E-MAILED TO A DROP BOX
I'M MONITORING AND WE WILL GET
THOSE QUESTIONS ANSWERED
ACCORDINGLY AND PLEASE USE THAT
FEEDBACK TOOL EARLY AND OFTEN
AND KNOW YOU MIGHT NEED TO
SCROLL DOWN A BIT TO ACCESS IT
AND WITH THAT, PLEASE, DR.
HARINGTON, TAKE IT AWAY.
>> THANK YOU, CHRIS AND
EVERYBODY JOINING US THIS
AFTERNOON AND REALIZE THIS TIME
AFTER LUNCH FOR MANY PEOPLE
GOING INTO THE SLEEP ZONE AND
WANT TO TAKE A NAP AND
APPRECIATE YOU COMING TO THE
WORKSHOP THIS AFTERNOON AND
HOPEFULLY CAN KEEP IT LIVELY
ENOUGH TO KEEP EVERYONE ENGAGED
AND WELCOME TO DHS NEXUS
APPROACH AND BREAKING DOWN STOVE
PIPES AND CHRIS, NEXT SLIDE.
THE -- AGAIN, I'M PAT HARINGTON
AND KEVIN AND LINDSEY FROM
TERRY'S GROUP HAS BEEN MY
COLLABORATORS IN THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS DEVELOPING A NEXUS
APPROACH AND TRAINING WORKSHOP
AND NOTE UP FRONT WE ORIGINALLY
DEVELOPED IS A TWO-HOUR WORKSHOP
WE ARE TRYING TO COMPRESS DOWN
TO 90 MINUTES TODAY AND
APOLOGIZE IF I MIGHT GO FAST OR
SKIP THROUGH SOME SLIDES IN THE
INTEREST OF TIME TO TRY TO KEEP
THIS ON TRACK AND ANOTHER NOTE
IS THAT SLIDES THAT YOU WILL SEE
HERE ARE A LITTLE EDITED FROM
ONES THAT WERE UPLOADED TO THE
FED CENTER AND WEBSITE IN CASE
YOU DOWNLOADED THEM BUT THEY
WON'T DIFVERGE TOO FAR OFF.
NEXT SLIDE, CHRIS.
OBJECTIVES OF OUR WORKSHOP IS
DISCUSSING VALUE AND POTENTIAL
FOR SUSTAINABILITY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE
CONSIDERATIONS INTO EXISTING
FACILITY ASSESSMENTS AND PROJECT
MANAGEMENT AND WE WANT TO
PROVIDE A CONTEXT TO DHS
RESILIENCE FRAMEWORK LEGAL
REQUIREMENTS AND AGENCY GUIDANCE
AND WILL REVIEW ENERGY WATER
EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION
MEASURES OR ECMS AS WE CALL THEM
WITH RESILIENCE AND POTENTIAL
CONDITION DRIVERS AND DESCRIBING
CONCEPTS AND MECHANISMS FOR
FUNDING FACILITY PROJECTS AND
PRESENTING A FEW CASE STUDIES
NEAR THE END TO TIE THIS
TOGETHER AND IN ADDITION FOR
THOSE NOT ALREADY FAMILIAR, WE
WILL INTRODUCE DHS BUILDING
ASSESSMENT TOOL WE DEVELOPED AT
DHS TO DO INTEGRATED FACILITY
ASSESSMENTS AND NEXT SLIDE IS
SLIDE 4 AND WORKSHOP SECTIONS WE
WILL HAVE TODAY AND GOING
THROUGH AN INTRODUCTION OVERVIEW
TO TAKE A DEEPER DIVE INTO
BUILDING ASSESSMENT PROCESSES
AND TOOLS AND FOLLOW IT BY
FACILITY PROJECTS AND FINANCING
AND CASE STUDIES TO PULL IT ALL
TOGETHER INTO THE NEXUS APPROACH
AND AS TIME ALLOWS WE WOULD WANT
TO GET TO QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
IN THE AUDIENCE AND PLEASE THERE
IS A DELAY IN GETTING QUESTIONS
THROUGH TO US AND THEY INPUT
QUESTIONS THROUGHOUT THE
PRESENTATION AS YOU GO ALONG AND
CHRIS PANE WILL COMPILE THEM FOR
US AND NEXT SLIDE IS LINE UP
FRONT AND TAKE-HOME MESSAGE IS
FOR THE WORKSHOP AND
IMPLEMENTING NEXUS APPROACH
REQUIRES A CULTURE CHANGE IN
THINKING AND VIEWING MANAGING
FACILITIES IN HOLISTIC WAY AND
INTEGRATE AD CROSS TRADITIONAL
LINES OF BUSINESS AND BUDGETING
PROCESS IS CONSIDERING
ALTERNATIVE FINANCE PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTS AND FINALLY INHERENT
COST OF CYBER SECURITY NEEDS TO
BE BUDGETED AS REGULAR OWN COSTS
UPGRADING FACILITY PORTFOLIOS TO
21ST CENTURY INFRASTRUCTURE THAT
IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT MEETING
NEW REQUIREMENTS FOR RESILIENCE
AND CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION
AND NEXT SLIDE, SLIDE 6.
JUST A LITTLE REVIEW TO SEND THE
REST OF TODAY EARLIER TODAY
GOING OVER A NUMBER OF
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS IN ISO
ISOMANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND PETER
GAVE AN EXCELLENT PRESENTATION
THE FIRST OFF THERE AND
EXPLAINING IT THAT ISOHAS 50
DIFFERENT STANDARDS FOR
DIFFERENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND
TO THE POINT WHERE ISOCREATED A
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE FOR
STANDARD TO STANDARDS TO TRY TO
ORGANIZE THEM AND ALL SYSTEMS
HAVE CONSISTENT COMMONALITIES
SUCH AS HAVING POLICIES OR SOPS
OR ORGANIZATIONAL
RESPONSIBILITIES AND
DOCUMENTATION QUALITY CHECKS AND
PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT THAT
MOST OF YOU ARE KIND OF FAMILIAR
WITH THOSE.
EACH OF THE STANDARDS RELATE TO
SPECIFIC ASPECTS OF FACILITY
MANAGEMENT AND FOR EXAMPLE IS A
COUPLE I PUT UP HERE.
ENVIRONMENTAL ENERGY, RISK
ASSESSMENT AND WATER THAT WE
WOULD TRADITIONALLY CALL STOVE
PIPES AND FOR THE NEXUS
APPROACH, WE TREAT ASPECTS AS
PART OF A LARGER SYSTEMATIC
MANAGEMENT OF A FACILITY TAKING
ADVANTAGE OF INTERRELATIONSHIPS
IN IDENTIFYING AND PRIORITIZING
CROSS-CUTTING FACILITY PROJECTS.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 7 AND
TYPICAL FACILITIES ASSESSMENTS
ARE OUR DONE NA STOVE PIPE
TODAY. WHAT DO I MEAN BY THAT?
OFTEN WE HAVE IN-HOUSE FACILITY
ASSESSORS OR HIRE CONTRACT
AUDITORS AND SOMETIMES SEPARATE
CONTRACTS GOING OUT TO SAME
FACILITIES AT DIFFERENT TIMES TO
DO CONDITION ASSESSMENT ENERGY
AND WATER AUDIT AND RESILIENCE
ASSESSMENT AND DOING SUSTAINABLE
BUILDING ASSESSMENT AND
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AUDIT
AND DOG IT THIS WAY CREATES
MULTIPLE SITE VISITS COLLECTING
MUCH OF THE SAME FACILITY DATA
AND DUPLICATING DATA COLLECTION
OFTEN AND RESULTS IN COSTING US
MORE MONEY, TIME, AND RESOURCES
TO BE CONDUCTING FACILITY
ASSESSMENTS IN A STOVE-PIPE
WORLD AND SECTION 8 STOVE-PIPE
ASSESSMENT INTEGRATED PROJECTS
STAYING IN STOVE-PIPE WORLD
ENERGY AND WATER COMING OUT WITH
ENERGY AND WATER AND EFFICIENCY
CONSERVATION MEASURES ECMS
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSOR
LOOKING FOR REPAIRS
ANDALITITRATIONS IN CAPITAL 1
IMPROVEMENTS WHERE EQUIPMENT AND
SYSTEMS ARE IN POOR CONDITION
AND RESILIENCE LOOKING FOR
INFRASTRUCTURE AND OPERATIONAL
INVESTMENTS PROTECTING MISSION
FUNCTION ASSESSMENTS
SUSTAINABILITY MANAGER I'M
LOOKING TO SEE IF BUILDINGS WILL
MEET SUSTAINABLE BUILDING
GUIDING PRINCIPLES AS
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE MANAGER
LOOKING FOR MITIGATION MEASURES
AND CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TO COMPLY
WITH ENVIRONMENTAL REGULATIONS
WHERE MY FACILITIES ARE OUT OF
COMPLIANCE AND NEXT SLIDE IS
SLIDE 9.
THEN IN HAND UNINTEG GREATED
PROJECTS LEAD TO STOVE-PIPE
FUNDING CONSIDERATIONS AND DON'T
HAVE TO READ THE ICHART BUT IDEA
ON THE LEFT-HAND SIDE WHAT LOOKS
LIKE AN ORGANIZATIONAL CHART WE
CAPTURE OMB BUDGET OBJECT CODES
THAT ARE USED BY REAL PROPERTY
FOLKS IN CLASSIFYING THE KINDS
OF PROJECTS THAT THEY PUT IN
CAPITAL PLAN BUDGET REQUESTS AND
YOU HAVE CAPITAL PROJECTS
OPERATIONS MAINTENANCE REPAIRS
AND SO FORTH.
THESE BUDGET OBJECT CODES DON'T
CAPTURE SEPARATELY OR EXPLICITLY
IDENTIFY IF PROJECTS ARE
RESILIENT ENERGY ENVIRONMENT AND
PROPERTY PEOPLE ARE OFTEN
LOOKING AT FACILITY CONDITION
AND AT DHS WE HAVE SOMETHING
CALLED PROJECT OBJECTIVE CODES
THAT ARE SUBCATEGORY WHERE WE
CAN TRACK THESE OTHER PARAMETERS
ABOUT PROJECTS OR ON THE BOX ON
THE RIGHT-HAND SIDE AND THESE
CATEGORIES ARE FOR ENERGY WATER
AND ECM FUNDING IN DEPARTMENT OF
ENERGY COMPLIANCE TRACKING
SYSTEM AND ENERGY MANAGERS
FAMILIAR WITH CTS THAT IS SYSTEM
WE ARE FEDERALLY REQUIRED TO
REPORT FACILITY ENERGY AUDITS
AND ECMS EVALUATED FROM THOSE
AND TAKE-HOME MESSAGE FROM THIS
IS BUDGET AAND FUNDING
CATEGORIES ARE A METHOD TO SORT
AND NOT PRIORITIZE YOUR PROJECTS
AND TRYING TO PIGEON HOLE
EVERYTHING INTO CATEGORIES MIGHT
OBSCURE OVERLAPPING BENEFITS
AMONG ENERGY, WATER RESILIENCE
CONDITION TO SUSTAINABILITY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL AND PUTTING
PROJECTS IN JUST ONE
CLASSIFICATION AND NEXT SLIDE IS
SLIDE 10 AND STOVE PIPES PROMOTE
STATUS QUO THINKING WITH
FACILITIES LASTING 40 + YEARS
AND ASSUMING TODAY STATUS QUO
FACILITIES OPERATION AND
MANAGEMENT JEOPARDIZES THAT
ASSETS BECOME UNEXPECTEDLY
OBSOLETE AND GIVING SHORT
EXAMPLES AND WE HAVE STATUS QUO
THAT WE FIGURE WE WILL HAVE SAME
CLIMATE WE ALWAYS HAVE AND
LOOKING FROM ENVIRONMENTAL
SUSTAINABILITY PERSPECTIVE AND
RECOGNIZE NOW THAT NEED FOR
CLIMATE CHANGE ADAPTATION AND
MITIGATION IS EVER MORE URGENT
AND CLIMATE CHANGE IS BACK UNDER
A FEDERAL PRIORITY UNDER THE
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION AND MIGHT
LOOK AT BUILDING OPERATIONS AND
CONSIDER THAT WE HAVE THE SAME
OLD INDOOR AIR POLLUTANTS
VIRUSES AND MICROBES FRAND
HEALTH AND SAFETY WE ALL KNOW
FROM THE LAST TWO YEARS THAT
COVID-19 PANDEMIC NEW NORMAL
REQUIRES AIR QUALITY BUILDING
OPERATIONS AND STANDARDS TO BE
REVISED.
WE CAN NO LONGER GO WITH OLD
FILTRATION SYSTEMS OR AIR
EXCHANGES TO DEAL WITH THESE NEW
VIRUSES OUT THERE AND NEXT SLIDE
IS SLIDE 11 AND NEW REQUIREMENTS
AND POLICIES ALSO ARE OVERRIDING
STATUS QUO THINKING AND COUPLE
EXAMPLES AND ENERGY ACT OF 2020
FAIR WILL I RECENTLY CHANGE THE
WHAT WE USE THE TO CONSIDER
DISCRETIONARY ABILITY TO
IMPLEMENT ACMS RETURNED A
REQUIREMENT AND MANDATE THAT
AGENCIES WILL INITIATE LIFE
CYCLE COST EFFECTIVE ECMS IN TWO
YEARS OF FACILITY AUDITS AND
APPLIES TO THOSE IN DECEMBER
2020 WHEN ACT WAS ENACTED AND IN
ADDITION TO THAT WE ARE REQUIRED
TO IMPLEMENT AT LEAST 50% OF
ECMS USING PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTING LIKEN EARTH JI
SAVINGS PERFORMANCE CONTRACTS
AND UTILITY ENERGY SERVICES
CONTRACTS IN ADDITION TO THAT IN
BIDEN ADMINISTRATION AND IN LAST
YEAR SEVERAL EXECUTIVE ORDERS
HAVE COME OUT AND GIVING US
DRIVING VERY FAR REACHING
FEDERAL REQUIREMENTS TO ADDRESS
CLIMATE CHANGE INCLUDING CARBON
FREE ELECTRICITY VEHICLE AND
CHARGING INFRASTRUCTURE AND NEW
WAYS TO LOOK AT ENERGY USE
INTENSITY AND WATER INTENSITY
SETTING TARGETS FOR PORTFOLIO
BENCHMARKS INSTEAD OF
TRADITIONAL CERTAIN REDUCTION
EACH YEAR AND GREENHOUSE GAS
REDUCTION TARGETS AND TAKE-HOME
ON THIS IS THAT FOR AGENCIES IN
YOUR BUDGETING PROCESSES, YOU
ARE REAL PROPERTY CAPITAL BUDGET
REQUESTS NEED TO INTEGRATE ECMS
INTO THOSE REQUESTS AND ECMS ARE
NOT JUST PREMIUM ADD-ONS TO
FACILITY CONDITIONED PROJECTS
TYPICALLY PRIORITIZED IN MANY
PROPERTY CAPITAL PLANS AND WHERE
THE ENERGY MANAGERS AND REAL
PROPERTY MANAGERS HAVE TO REALLY
BE COMMUNICATING WITH ONE
ANOTHER.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 12.
SO, THE DHS NEXUS APPROACH TO
FACILITY MANAGEMENT INTEGRATES
CROSS RESILIENCE ENERGY WATER
FACILITY CONDITION
SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
COMPLIANCE FOR FACILITY
ASSESSMENTS AND IDENTIFYING
FACILITY PROJECTS PRIORITIZING
PROJECTS FOR IMPLEMENTATION AND
THEN CONSIDERING THE FINANCING
OPTIONS TO IMPLEMENT THOSE
FACILITY PROJECTS AND NEXT SLIDE
IS SLIDE 13 AND WE HAVE
OPERATIONALIZED THE NEXUS
APPROACH TO FACILITY ASSESSMENT
AND PROJECT DEVELOPMENT IF INTO
BASICALLY FOUR MAJOR STEPS AND
THE FIRST IS BEING INTEGRATED
FACILITY ASSESSMENT AND FOLLOWED
BY INTEGRATED PROJECT EVALUATION
AND MULTIFACTOR PROJECT
PRIORITIZATION OF THE PROJECTS
AND FOR THE PROJECTS THAT GET
PRIORITIZED, FUNDING DECISIONS
AND OPTIONS THAT WE WILL WANT TO
USE IN ORDER TO IMPLEMENT THOSE
PROJECTS.
FOR THOSE PROJECTS THAT ARE --
THAT DO MAKE THE CUT AND GET
IMPLEMENTED, WE WILL ADD THEM
BACK TO THE BASELINE FOR THE
NEXT ROUND OF FACILITY
ASSESSMENTS SO WE CAN SEE WHAT
KIND OF IMPROVEMENTS HOPEFULLY
IN THE PERFORMANCE OF THE
BUILDING THAT THE PROJECTS HAVE
REALIZED AND FOR THOSE PROJECTS
THAT DON'T MAKE THE FUNDING CUT
BECAUSE WE NEVER HAVE ENOUGH
MONEY FOR ALL OF THE BACKLOG OF
PROJECTS WE USUALLY HAVE AT MOST
AGENCIES AND UNDERFUNDED
PROJECTS WILL GET REATTAINED FOR
FUTURE ASSESSMENTS AND SEE IF
THEY ARE STILL APPLICABLE OR NO
LONGER APPLICABLE IN THE NEXT
ROUND AND INTEGRATING ACROSS ALL
DIFFERENT ASPECTS OF THE
FACILITIES AND LOOKING AT
PROJECTS VERY IMPORTANTLY AS
HOLISTIC FACILITY PROJECTS
INSTEAD OF THE USUAL WHERE WE
STOVE-PIPE INTO ECMS OR CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENTS OR REPAIRS OR
ALTERATIONS OR RESILIENCE
PROJECTS OR SUSTAINABILITY
PROJECTS AND CORRECTIVE ACTION
AND PERSPECTIVE HERE IS JUST TO
LOOK AT IT IN FACILITY PROJECTS
TO TRY TO INTEGRATE THEM
TOGETHER.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 13.
WE HAVE ALSO DEVELOPED AND
IDENTIFIED A TOOL KIT AND WHAT
WE CALL NEXUS TOOL KIT FOR DOIN'
TEG GREATED APPROACH TO FACILITY
MANAGEMENT AND TOOLS WE BUILT AT
DHS IS BUILDING ASSESSMENT TOOL
FOR INTEGRATED FACILITY
ASSESSMENT THAT WE WILL TALK A
LITTLE MORE AND GET MORE
IN-DEPTH PRESENTATION ON THE
BACK AND NEXT SET OF TOOLS IS
ENTERPRISE DATA ANALYSIS TOOLS
THAT THERE IS A WEALTH OF THOSE
OUT IN THE COMMERCIAL WORLD AND
TWO EXAMPLES HERE IS US ARMY
CORPSE HAS BILTDER CONDITION
ASSESSMENT TOOL THAT IS AN
EXCELLENT TOOLELE THAT AGENCIES
USE FOR FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS TO CALCULATE
EQUIPMENT SYSTEMSIN DISSIES
INDEX AND RS MEANS HAS BEEN
AROUND FOR A LONG TIME TO HELP
US COME UP WITH THE CAPITAL COST
OF PROJECTS AND ONCE YOU HAVE
ALL YOUR PROJECTS AGAIN BECAUSE
WE NEVER HAVE ENOUGH MONEY AND
WE NEED TO PRIORITIZE THOSE
PROJECTS AND PRIORITIZATION
TOOLS OWE TLUT AND THERE ARE
SOME VERY COMPLEX AND
SOPHISTICATED PRIOR
PRIORITIZATION TOOLS IN THE
WORLD AND SEVERAL AGENCIES USE
THEM AND DHS BUILT IN HOUSE AND
SIMPLIFIED VERSION OF TABLEAU
PROJECT PRIORITIZATION TOOL THAT
SERVED US VERY WELL RECENTLY FOR
RESILIENCE ENERGY AND
SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS WE HAVE
GOTTEN FUNDING FOR AND MENTIONED
IN THE PRIOR PRESENTATION CAN'T
STRESS HOW IMPORTANT UTILITY
DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND
ADVANCED NEIGHBORING
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR REAL-TIME
DATA AS WELL ARE TO COLLECTING
YOUR ENERGY PERFORMANCE AND
WATER PERFORMANCE AT YOUR
FACILITIES AND, OF COURSE, THESE
FEED INTO YOUR ENJIERGY AND WATER
FACILITY ASSESSMENTS AND A
STORAGE SYSTEM TO HOLD ALL OF
THE DATA TRIREGA BY IBM USED
PROPERTY DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
AND DHS COMPONENTS USE IT AND
OTHER AGENCIES TO AND DHS
HEADQUARTER LEVEL WE BUILD A
SYSTEM CALLED CAPSIS LOOKING AT
ROLLED UP DATA PROPERTY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM AND ASSET TO
PERSONAL PROPERTY AND MOBILE
ASSETS DATABASE AND NEXT SLIDE
IS SLIDE 15 AND I WILL BREAK
DOWN IN THE NEXT FEW SLIDES
THOSE FOUR STEPS OF THE NEXUS
APPROACH AND FIRST IS INTEGRATED
ASSESSMENTS AND, AGAIN, THIS IS
SOME OF THE TOOLS THAT I HAVE
MENTIONED SOME THAT YOU WOULD
USE FOR YOUR ASSESSMENT PHASE
FOR DATA COLLECTION AND ANALYSIS
AND UDMS, AGAIN, AND ENERGY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM ADVANCED
METERING INFRASTRUCTURE AND
BUILDING ASSESSMENT TOOL AND
DIFFERENT KINDS OF CALCULATORS
FOR LIFE CYCLE COSTS AND ENERGY
ANALYSIS TOOLS AND ARMY CORPSE
BUILDER AND COMMERCIAL
PROPRIETARY FCA TOOLS AS WELL
AND IN ADDITION AT DHS WE
DEVELOPED WHAT WE CALL
RESILIENCE BASELINE ASSESSMENT
SCORING TOOL OR RBASS TOOL AND
STOOD UP RESILIENCE PROGRAM IN
LAST SEVERAL YEARS AND USE THAT
TOOL TO GO OUT TO SITES TO DO
ASSESSMENT FOR RESILIENCE OF
SITES AND GIVE THEM A RESILIENCE
SCORE AND TO HELP IDENTIFY WHERE
WE MIGHT HAVE VULNERABILITIES OR
RESILIENCE AT OUR SITES AND IN
ADDITION AT DHS TAKING ADVANTAGE
OF OOID HOE NATIONAL LABORATORY
HAVING INTERDEPENDENCY MODEL
THAT IS REALLY GREAT THAT LOOKS
AT CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE ON
AND OFF YOUR SITE TO LOOK AT THE
INTERDEPENDENCIES OF CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE IN OPERATIONS AT
YOUR SITE AND IMPACTING SITE
OPERATIONS IN TERMS OF
RESILIENCE AND I MENTIONED
DHSCAPSIS SYSTEM DATA WAREHOUSE
TO STORE COMPILED DATA YOU FOR
US.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 16 AND NEXT
STEP IS INTEGRATED PROJECT
EVALUATION AND WHEN YOU HAVE
DONE ASSESSMENTS YOU HAVE COME
UP WITH LIST OF PROJECTS FROM
ACROSS DIFFERENT TYPES OF
FACILITY ASSESSMENTS YOU ARE OUT
THERE DOING AND WE HAVE GIVEN A
SIMPLISTIC EXAMPLE HERE WE CAME
UP WITH A FEW EXAMPLES AND WE
WANT TO DEVELOP A KIND OF MATRIX
AND COULD USE A SPREADSHEET
MATRIX OR WHATEVER TO THEN DO A
CROSSWALK OF WHEN YOU LOOK AT
YOUR PROJECTS IRRESPECTIVE OF
WHAT KIND OF ASSESSMENT THEY
CAME UP FROM AND YOU KNOW YOU
MIGHT HAVE COME UP WITH FOR
INSTANCE IN PROJECT 3 A ROOF
REPAIR AND CAME OUT OF YOUR
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENT
AND TAKING A LOOK ACROSS OTHER
ASPECTS AND PROJECTS MIGHT HAVE
OTHER ASPECTS AND IN THIS CASE
MAYBE SUSTAINABILITY AND ENERGY
WATER AS WELL AS A RESILIENCE
ASPECT AND DO TAKE UP MATRIX AND
LOOK AT YOUR PROJECTS AND NEXT
SLIDE IS SLIDE 17.
NOW, ONCE WE HAVE ALL OUR
PROJECTS, AGAIN, BECAUSE WE HAVE
LIMITED FUNDING, ALWAYS, WE HAVE
TO BE ABLE TO RACK AND STACK
PROJECTS TO FIGURE OUT WHICH ARE
THE MOST IMPORTANT AND EVEN HOW
TO MAYBE SCHEDULE THEM AND WE
HAVE TO COME UP WITH A
MULTIFACTOR PROJECT
PRIORITIZATION TOOL TO TALK A
LITTLE MORE ABOUT THIS SORT OF
THING LATER ON AND ONCE YOU HAVE
COME UP WITH YOUR PROJECTS THAT
HAVE MADE YOUR CUT, YOU WANT TO
FIGURE OUT WHAT IS THE BEST WAY
TO FUND THE IMPLEMENTATION OF
THOSE PROJECTS AND, AGAIN, AS I
SHOWED YOU IN THE FINANCING
SLIDE EARLIER, YOU COULD BE
USING APPROPRIATIONS AND CAPITAL
PLAN TYPE OF APROPRIATION
BUDGETS AND THERE IS ENERGY
PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING FOR
ANYTHING WITH HCM ASPECT TO IT
IS ANOTHER GREAT WAY TO LEVERAGE
THIRD-PARTY FINANCING FOR
IMPLEMENTING YOUR PROJECTS AND
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 18 AND THIS
IS JUST TAKING ALL THE STEPS
PUTTING TOGETHER IN A SINGLE
FLOW CHART WE DIDN'T WANT TO
SHOW YOU FIRST.
IT WOULD BOGGLE YOUR MIND AND
AFTER SEEING STEPS THIS IS HOW
FLOW GOES ALL TOGETHER IN THE
END.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 19.
I WANTED TO PAUSE A LITTLE BIT
AND TALK ABOUT THE DHS
RESILIENCE FRAMEWORK AND THAT WE
STARTED AROUND 2018 AT DHS THAT
APPLIES TO COMMON PRINCIPLES
ACROSS DHS OPERATIONS TO
IDENTIFY AND ASSESS AND
PRIORITIZE AND PROTECT CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE THAT AT DHS WE
HAVE DEVELOPED -- WE HAVE
IDENTIFIED FOUR CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE AND RESILIENCE
FOCUS AREAS AS WE CALL THEM THAT
ARE ENERGY AND WATER AND
FACILI
FACILITY INFORMATION AND
COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGY AND
TRANSPORTATION AND MENTIONING
PART OF FEDERAL ENVIRONMENTAL
SYMPOSIUM TOMORROW THERE IS A
TRACK 8 ON RESILIENCE AND DHS
WILL PRESENT AS PART OF THAT
TRACK AND WILL BE TALKING ABOUT
RESILIENCE FRAMEWORK AND
BASICALLY IS A SERIES OF STEPS
WHERE YOU IDENTIFY WHAT ARE YOUR
MISSION-CRITICAL FUNCTIONS AND
ASSETS AND WHAT ARE
VULNERABILITIES OF THOSE.
AND THEN DOING AN ASSESSMENT TO
COME UP WITH AND IDENTIFY
RESILIENCE AND GAPS AND
SOLUTIONS AND INTEGRATIVE
RESILIENCE READINESS THAT YOU
HAVE TO DO TO MAKE YOUR SITE
RESILIENT AND GOING TO THE NEXT
SLIDE, PLEASE.
SLIDE 20 AND FOR THIS PARTICULAR
WORKSHOP TODAY IN TERMS OF
RESILIENCE ASPECT WE WILL FOCUS
ON LAST TWO STEPS IDENTIFYING
GAPS AND SOLUTIONS AND READINESS
SOLUTIONS AND PRIMARILY WILL
FOCUS ON USING ENERGY AND AUDITS
AND FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS AS TOOLS FOR
CHARACTERIZING PROJECTS WITH
BENEFITS AND RESILIENCE BENEFITS
AND MENTIONED WE HAVE RESILIENCE
BASELINE ASSESSMENT SCORING TOOL
YOU WOULD CERTAINLY USE OUT
THERE AND AS WELL AS
ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE AUDITS
SUSTAINABLE BUILDING ASSESSMENTS
AS WELL AND FOR SAKE OF FOCUSING
WORKSHOP WE WILL NARROW FOCUS
AND GIVEN THAT ALL KINDS OF
ASSESSMENTS SHOULD BE GOING ON
TO IDENTIFY WEALTH AND BREADTH
OF PROJECTS ACROSS THE FACILITY
AND NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 21 AND
DHS REDISTILLIENCE PROJECTS AND
KIND OF THE DEFINITION OF
RESILIENCE IS THAT THEY ARE
TUNED TO INCREASE THE ABILITY OF
A FACILITY TO ADAPT TO CHANGING
CONDITIONS AND WITHSTAND AND
RAPIDLY RECOVER FROM A
DISRUPTION AND KINDS OF
DISRUPTIONS FROM CLIMATE CHANGE
IS HURRICANES FLOODING AND
COVID-19 PANDEMIC HAD DISRUPTION
ON MANY OPERATIONS AND MAN-MADE
DISRUPTIONS LIKE CYBER ATTACKS
AND FOR THOSE FAMILIAR WITH THE
COLONIAL OR GAS PIPELINE A FEW
MONTHS AGO THEY HAD A CYBER
ATTACK IN THE ENTIRE EASTERN
SEABOARD THAT THEY SERVICE FOR
GAS.
GAS WAS SHUT DOWN FOR SEVERAL
DAYS DUE TO A RANSOMWARE ATTACK
AND WANT THESE PROJECTS TO BE
FACILITY ROBUST REDUNDANT AND
RAPID AND WITHOUT GOING INTO
DETAILS THERE IS TYPES OF
FACILITY ASSESSMENTS AND WORKING
AT FOCUS AREAS OF CRITICAL
INFRASTRUCTURE TO MAKE SURE
WHOLE SITE IS RESILIENT AND NEXT
SLIDE IS LOOKING AT FOCUS AREAS
AT A MOCK-UP SITE TO SEE HOW
DIFFERENT KINDS OF ASPECTS OF
RESILIENCE INFRASTRUCTURE
INTERACT AND SLIDE 23.
NOW, WE WILL JUMP INTO GOING A
LITTLE DEEPER DIVE INTO BUILDING
ASSESSMENT PROCESSES AND TOOLS
AND NEXT SLIDE.
JUST A LITTLE OF BACKGROUND FOR
THOSE THAT MAY IN THIS WORKSHOP
WHO MIGHT NOT BE ENERGY MANAGERS
AND MOST ENERGY MANAGERS ARE
FAMILIAR WITH ENERGY
INDEPENDENCE SECURITY ACT OF
2007 THAT REQUIRED THAT FEDERAL
AGENCIES PERFORM ENERGY AND
WATER AUDITS OF COVERED
FACILITIES WHERE COVERED
FACILITIES MUST CONSTITUTE AT
LEAST 75% OF THE AGENCIES
FACILITY ENERGY USE IN THE
PORTFOLIO.
EACH COVERED FACILITY MUST BE
EVALUATED EVERY FOUR YEARS AT A
MINIMUM.
CURRENT EMPHASIS IS ON ENERGY
AND WATER SAVINGS.
JUST A NOTE HERE THAT WITH
MODEST SCOPE CHANGE TO FACILITY
AUDIT CONTRACTS THAW COULD
INCORPORATE A PLUS R RESILIENCE
CONSIDERATIONS TO HAVE AUDITORS
LOOK AT WHILE OUT THERE IN THE
FIELD THAT WOULD BE A
SIGNIFICANT OPPORTUNITY TO
LEVERAGE THAT EXPERT LABOR TO
REVIEW ENERGY AND WATER
INFRASTRUCTURE AND CRITICALNESS
TO RESILIENCE WHILE THEY ARE
THERE.
NEXT SLIDE, SLIDE 25 LOOKING AT
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENT
THAT I MENTIONED EARLIER ON WITH
STOVE-PIPE ASSESSMENTS THERE IS
A GREAT DEAL OF OVERLAP BETWEEN
SYSTEMS FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENT ENERGY AND WATER
AUDIT LOOK AT AND SCA LOOKS AT
OTHER SYSTEMS LIKE SUBSTRUCTURE
AND SHELL ELEMENTS INTERIORS
EQUIPMENT AND FURNISHINGS AND
SERVICES AND SPECIAL
CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION
LOOKING AT OVERALL CONDITION OF
THE FACILITIES AND IT MIGHT NEED
A PAINT JOB AND ENERGY AND WATER
AUDIT FOCUS ON WHERE CAN ACCRUE
ENERGY AND WATER SAVINGS AND
SLIDE 26 AND GOING INTO DEEPER
DEPTH WITH THAT CROSSWALK IS
FACILITY CONDITION PROJECTS
NEEDING TO COORDINATE WITH ECMS
EFFICIENCY AND CONSERVATION
MEASURES AND RESILIENCE PROJECTS
AND FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS HAVE DIFFERENT
PERSPECTIVE THAN ENERGY AND
WATER AUDIT. FCA FAEKUSES ON
REPAIR COSTS AND LIFE
PROJECTIONS AND ENERGY AUDITS
FOCUS ON UTILITY SAVINGS AND
MOST AGENCIES IF THEY ARE AT DHS
AND FCA PROJECTS BACKLOG OF
THOSE RUN INTO BILLIONS OF
DOLLARS AROUND ECMS TEND TO RUN
INTO MILLIONS OR HUNDREDS OF
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF PROJECTS
ACROSS THE AGENCY AND FACILITY
CONDITION ASSESSMENT PROJECTS
GENERALLY DRAW ON APPROPRIATIONS
WHILE ENERGY AND WATER ECMS CAN
LEVERAGE ENERGY PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTS WHERE THERE IS
THIRD-PARTY FINANCING TO
IMPLEMENT PROJECTS.
HOWEVER, THERE IS POTENTIAL FOR
COMPLEMENT INVESTMENTS MAKING
BEST USE OF FUNDING OPTIONS AND
WILL SHOW YOU EXAMPLES OF THAT
IN CASE STUDIES HAVING A LITTLE
LATER ON IN WORKSHOP AND
PROJECTS CAN IMPACT AND INTERACT
WITH BOTH RESILIENCE AND ENERGY
AND WATER AND FCA EQUIPMENT
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT AND
POTENTIAL FOR EQUIPMENT FAILURE
IS A RESILIENCE ISSUE IF IMPACTS
MISSION ESSENTIAL FUNCTION AND
RESILIENCE IS ABOUT PROTECTING
MISSION ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS FROM
BEING INTERRUPTED AND WHERE YOU
CAN IDENTIFY PROJECTS THAT
ADDRESS COMBINED FACILITY
CONDITION ENERGY WATER
OPPORTUNITIES AND IMPROVE
RESILIENCE IS THE TRY FEKTA OF
PROJECTS IF YOU CAN YOU WANT TO
TRY TO FIND TO GET BIGGEST BANG
FOR YOUR BUCK ACROSS FACILITIES.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 27 AT DHS TO
PROMOTE NEXUS APPROACH FACILITY
ASSESSMENT AND LAST YEAR WHILE
WE WERE REVISING FACILITY
CONDITION ASSESSMENT DIRECTIVE
WE ADDED A SECTION IN THERE THAT
IS STATING THAT TO THE MAXIMUM
EXTENT PRACTICABLE INTEGRATION
OF FACILITY AND ENERGY AND WATER
AUDITS SHOULD BE DONE CONCURRENT
WITH FACILITY ASSESSMENTS AT
SAME FACILITIES AND COMPONENTS
INTEGRATING TO EXTENT
PRACTICABLE HIGH PERFORMANCE
SUSTAINABLE EVALUATIONS AT SAME
FACILITIES AND GOOD NOTE AND
PRACTICE IF YOU TRY TO DO
INTEGRATED ASSESSMENTS AT SAME
TIME OF FACILITIES TO EXTENT
FEASIBLE YOU HAVE TO START TO
SYNCHRONIZE SCHEDULES FOR
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSLETS
AND ENERGY AND WATER AUDITS AT
DHS HISTORICALLY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS USUALLY DONE ON A
3-YEAR CYCLE ENERGY WATER AND
WATER AUDITS DONE ON A 4 YEAR
CYCLE AND TO DO INTEGRATED
ASSESSMENTS AT SAME SITE AND
TIME YOU HAVE TO START TO
SYNCHRONIZE THESE SCHEDULES AND
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 28 AND A
QUICK NOTE IN THE INTEREST OF
TIME THAT I WON'T GO THROUGH IN
DETAIL AND THOUGHTS ON HANDLING
SENSITIVE DATA IF YOU HAVE
CONTRACTOR AUDITORS WHO MAY OR
MAY NOT HAVE SECURITY CLEARANCE
GOING OUT LOOKING AT RESILIENCE
FACTORS SOME THINGS ABOUT
RESILIENCE CLASSIFIED
INFORMATION AT DHS CRITICALITY
LEVEL ASSIGNED TO ASSETS IS NOT
SHARED WITH PUBLIC FOR OBVIOUS
REASONS AND YOU STILL CAN BE
LOOKING AT AUDITS EVEN IF THEY
ARE NOT CLEARED CONTRACTORS
LOOKING AT CRITICAL LOADS AND
SPECIAL OPERATIONAL CONSTRAINTS
AND SYSTEMS THAT HAVE TO KEEP
OPERATE FORGE REASONS OTHER THAN
ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND GETTING
MORE DESCRIPTIVE LOOKING AT
ELEVATION OF EQUIPMENT ABOVE
FLOOD LEVELS TO HELP YOU GAUGE
FLOOD VULNERABILITY OR NUMBER OF
SUBSTATIONS OR LINES SERVING
FACILITY TO DO AN ASSESSMENT OF
SINGLE POINTS OF FAILURE FROM A
RESILIENCE PERSPECTIVE THAT IS
IMPORTANT FROM AGENCY TO HAVE
WELL DEFINED EXCLUSION OF SCOPE
FROM SENSITIVE AREAS OR
EQUIPMENT KEEPING CONTRACTORS
WAITING TIME COLLECTING DATA
THEY SHOULDN'T BE AND SIDE NOTE
MOST KNOW WITH DATA IS SOMETIMES
NON-AGGREGATED NON-SENSITIVE
DATA COULD BE SENSITIVE OR
CLASSIFIED WHEN YOU START TO
COMBINE AND AGGREGATE DATA SETS
TOGETHER.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 29.
AND, OF COURSE, DON'T FORGET
WATER AND MOST ENERGY MANAGERS
HAVE ALWAYS KNOWN WITHOUT SAYING
WHEN WE TALK ABOUT ENERGY AUDITS
OR CONSERVATION MEASURES THAT WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT WATER HOWEVER
THE ENERGY ACT OF 2020 MADE IT
VERY EXPLICIT NOW THAT IT
REQUIRES WATER ECMS IN AUDITS
AND IMPLEMENTATION AND OF COURSE
WATER YOU CAN LOOK ACROSS
POTABLE WATER FOR DRINKING AND
SANITATION AND LOOKING AT
IRRIGATION WATER AT A SITE AND
OF COURSE DON'T FORGET ABOUT
PROCESS WATER FOR COOLING AND
MAKE UP WATER FOR ENERGY SYSTEMS
FOR INSTANCE FOR COMBINED HEAT
AND POWER PLANTS DISTRICT
HEATING SYSTEMS AND COOLING
TOWERS FINDING IF YOU DON'T HAVE
MAKEUP IN PROCESS WATER AND IF
HAVING A LACK OF WATER TO THEN
SHUT DOWN ENERGY SYSTEMS TOO.
NEXT SLIDE, SLIDE 30.
OF COURSE FROM A RESILIENCE
PERSPECTIVE WE ARE AWARE WITH
CLIMATE CHANGE ESPECIALLY IN THE
WESTERN PART OF THE UNITED
STATES ABOUT HOW WATER STRESSED
THE COUNTRY IS AND DROUGHT AND
WILDFIRES IT IS CAUSING IF YOU
HAVE FACILITIES OPERATING THOSE
AREAS WATER HAS TO BECOME AN
IMPORTANT ASPECT TO LOOK AT AND
COME UP WITH PROJECTS TO MAKE
YOUR FACILITIES MORE WATER
EFFICIENT.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 31.
NOW, I MENTIONED BUILDING
ASSESSMENT TOOL BEFORE THIS AND
WHAT IS DHS BUILDING ASSESSMENT
TOOL? STRUCTURED MICROSOFT
ACCESS DATABASE WE HAVE
DEVELOPED THAT HAS A BACKEND
DATABASE AND FRONT-END USER
INTERFACE WITH SCREEN MENUS
ENABLING AN AUDITOR TO INPUT
LIVE DATA USING A TABLET OR
LAPTOP DURING BUILDING
WALK-THROUGHS AND STORES AND
COLLECTS CONSISTENT DATA
COMPATIBLE WITH DATABASES AND
STANDARDS AND CONTINUING DATA
OVER SUCCESSIVE TIME AND DATA IS
BASED ON CHECKLIST AND FORMAT 2
CODE THAT IS USED FOR SYSTEMS
AND EQUIPMENT OFTEN IN FACILITY
CONDITION ASSESSMENTS AS WELL AS
DOE COMPLIANCE TRACKING SYSTEM
DATA FIELDS INCLUDING BUILDING
SYNC DATA SCHEMA FOR REQUIRED
ACM REPORTING AND REASON FOR THE
STANDARDIZATION OF DATA IS SO
THAT YOU CAN USE THAT TO DO
DIFFERENT TYPES OF FACILITY
ASSESSMENTS AND USABLE ACROSS
DIFFERENT ASSESSMENTS AND
ANALYSIS THAT ARE IN A
STANDARDIZE THE STRUCTURED
FORMAT FOR DATA AND SIDENOTE TOO
MENTIONED ABOUT PEOPLE ENTERING
DATA TO DOE COMPLIANCE TRACKING
SYSTEM DOING AUDITS AND HAVE
AUDITOR INPUT ECM DATA AFTER
ANALYSIS AND THAT GENERATES
POPULATED DATA TEMPLATES FOR CTS
REPORTING AT ECM EVALUATION
STAGE AND IMPLEMENTATION STAGE
AND MEASUREMENT AND VERIFICATION
STAGES AND A REALLY IMPORTANT
NOTE HERE IS BACK BY DESIGN IS
NOT A DATA ANALYSIS TOOL THAT WE
FELT THERE IS PLENTY COMMERCIAL
DATA ANALYSIS TOOLS OWE TLUT WE
DIDN'T HAVE TO REINVENT THE NEED
FOR AND HAVING A NEED FOR
STRUCTURED DATABASE TO HAVE
FACILITY DATA IN ONE PLACE TO
USE ACROSS YOUR ASSESSMENTS AND
SLIDE 32 SO FAR WE HAVE
DEVELOPED IT TO BE ABLE TO USE
IT FOR ENERGY AND WATER AUDITS
AND FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS AND MAKING A NOTE
WORKING WITH ARMY CORE OF
ENGINEERS WITH BUILDER FCA TOOL
THAT IS AN EXCELLENT TOOLELE
THAT COVERS FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENT AND BUILT IT BACK TO
IMPORT AND EXPORT BETWEEN BACK
AND BUILDER AND AUDITOR CAN USE
BAT TO COLLECT FIELD FCA DATA
INSTEAD OF THE DRE BREAD TOOL
THAT YOU COLLECT DATA TO UPLOAD
TO BUILDER FCA TOOL AND YOU CAN
USE THE BAT TO DO THAT NOW. IT
TALKS. THE TWO SYSTEMS TALK TO
EACH OTHER AND BAT INCLUDES
RESILIENCE CHARACTERISTICS AND
OPPORTUNITIES DOESN'T DUPLICATE
RBASS TOOL I MENTIONED EARLIER
AND ALLOWS AUDITOR WHEN OUT
THERE IN THE FIELD TO NOTE
THINGS THAT ORIGINALLY HAVE AN
ASPECT TO THEM IN THE TOOL.
WE HAVE NOT YET BUILT THE BAH
THE FOR SUSTAINABLE BUILDING
ASSESSMENTS PER GUIDING
PRINCIPLES NOR FOR ENVIRONMENTAL
COMPLIANCE THAT WE HOPE TO GET
SOMETIME IN THE NOT TOO DISTANT
FUTURE FUNDING WILLING.
AS I MENTIONED, THAT WITH
STANDARDIZED AND REUSABLE DATA
THAT ALLOWS YOU TO PREPOPULATE
PRIOR AUDIT DATA FROM ENERGY
AUDIT OR FCA TO USE FOR NEXT
AUDIT THAT IS GOING TO SAVE TIME
AND RESOURCES ON SUBSEQUENT
AUDITS BECAUSE AUDITOR THEN ONLY
HAS TO CONFIRM OR UPDATE CHANGES
SINCE LAST AUDIT RATHER THAN
GOING OUT CLEKING ALL NEW DATA
WITH EACH SUBSEQUENT AUDIT THAT
HISTORICALLY HAS BEEN DONE EVERY
FOUR YEARS GO OUT AND HIRE AUDIT
CONTRACTOR USUALLY A COMPANY
THAT GOES OUT AND COLLECTS DATA
FRESH AND LAST AUDITORS GAVE YOU
A PDF REPORT WITH RECOMMENDED
ECMS AND MAYBE YOU HAVE A LITTLE
DATA AND SPREADSHEETS BUT DIDN'T
HAVE FULL-STRUCTURED DATABASE
WITH ALL YOUR DATA AND NOW THAT
YOU HAVE THAT THIS WILL MAKE
YOUR SUBSEQUENT AUDITS MUCH
EASIER THAT CREATES LOTS OF
POWER FOR THAT ADDITIONALLY
ONSITE FACILITY MANAGERS CAN USE
THE BAT FOR CONTINUAL
IMPROVEMENT BY UPDATING NEW
EQUIPMENT AND BUILDING
CONDITIONS AS THEY CHANGE IN
REAL-TIME BETWEEN YOUR MAJOR
AUDITS EVERY THREE OR FOUR YEARS
AND THEY CAN ALSO USE IT TO
PERFORM REMOTE AUDITS IN THERE
BY FILLING OUT DATA FIELDS IN
THERE IF YOU HAVE A FAIRLY
DECENT ON SITE FACILITY MANAGER
THAT THERE IS LOTS OF DATA THEY
CAN POPULATE THEMSELVES AND NEXT
SLIDE IS SLIDE 33 THAT WITH THAT
CHRIS WILL WE WILL SWITCH OVER
AND RUN A SHORT VIDEO TO GIVE AN
OVERVIEW WHAT THE BAH THE IS
ABOUT THAT IS A LITTLE UNDER
SEVEN MINUTES.
TAKE IT AWAY, CHRIS.
>> THE BAT IS CURRENTLY DESIGN
THE TO CLEK AND STORE FACILITY
ENERGY AUDIT AND FACILITY
CONDITION AND RESILIENCE DATA IT
THAT IS AN IMPORTANT TOOL IN THE
PROJECT DEVELOPMENT NEXUS.
BUILT IS A MICROSOFT ACCESS
APPLICATION AND BAT CAN BE USE
THE BY MOST MICROSOFT USERS TOOL
IS GOOD AT CAPTURING DATA AT
BUILDING AND FACILITY LEVEL AND
IS DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY AS A
WALK-AROUND DATA COLLECTION
SYSTEM ELIMINATING THE NEED FOR
PAPER CHECKLISTS REQUIRING HAND
TRANSCRIPTION OR SCANNING TO BE
USEFUL AND ALL DATA COLLECTED
ARE FORMATTED AND STRUCTURED FOR
USE WITHIN THE BAT OR COULD BE
EXPORTED TO USE IN OTHER SYSTEMS
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY AFTER THE
INITIAL AUDIT, THESE DATA ARE
STORED AND CAN SIMPLY BE UPDATED
IN FUTURE AUDITS AND WILL BE NO
NEED TO KEEP COUNTING SAME LIGHT
BULBS OR INVENTORIYING WITH SAME
AUDIT TO SAVE TIME MONEY AND
ALLOW RESOURCES TO BE FOCUSED ON
SITUATIONAL OR OPERATIONAL
CHANGES OFFERING REAL ENERGY
SAVINGS OPPORTUNITIES OR NEEDED
CONDITION IMPROVEMENT.
WHILE THE BAT IS NOT A DATA
ANALYSIS TOOL, PLENTY OTHER
SYSTEMS PROVIDE SPECIALTY
ANALYSIS.
IT WILL STORE ANALYSIS RESULTS
AGAIN IN STANDARDIZED FORMATS
USEFUL FOR DIRECT -- THIS
INCLUDES DOE COMPLIANCE TRACKING
SYSTEM FOR REQUIRED FEDERAL
REPORTING ENERGY AND WATER
EVALUATIONS AND RESULTING ECMS
FOR ESUB COVERED FACILITIES FOR
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENTS
INCLUDES STANDARDIZED IDENTIFY
HES UNIFIED FORMAT CODES AND
CUSTOMIZABLE CONDITION CODES.
GETTING STARTED WITH THE BAT IS
SIMPLE AND USERS MUST USE
WINDOWS 10 HAVING A COPY OF MS
ACCESS 2013 OR NEWER INSTALLED
ON MACHINE ASSUMING CRITERIA ARE
MET BAT INSTALLATION FILES KWIK
START GUIDE VIDEO TUTORIALS AND
FULL USER MANUAL ARE AVAILABLE
ON BAT SHAREPOINT SITE FOR
DOWNLOAD.
ONCE INSTALLED LOGGING INTO BAT
FOR INITIAL USE IS
STRAIGHTFORWARD AND SIMILAR TO
SOFT WOIRS THAT MOST SHOULD BE
ACCUSTOMED WITH UPON FIRST YEWS
BAT DATABASE WILL BE EMPTY AND
INITIAL CONTACT INFORMATION AND
POPULATING REAL PROPERTY DATA
TABLES NEW BUILDINGS COULD BE
ADDED USING MANUAL INPUT FORM OR
BATCH UPLOAD TEMPLATE.
ONCE BUILDINGS ARE ADDED THEY
CAN BE ASSIGNED TO SPECIFIC
FIELD AUDITORS FOR EDITING AND
BECOME AVAILABLE FOR DATA ENTRY
THAT IN THE BAH THE WILL BE
FAMILIAR TO EXPERIENCE AUDITORS
AND ASSESSORS AND FORMS IN THE
BAH BAT ARE SIMILAR TO TYPES OF
PAPER CHECKLIST USED IN AUDITS
AND WORKFLOW IS CONSISTENT WITH
TYPICAL FEATURES FOR EXAMPLE
PRIOR TO FIELD VISIT IT IS
TYPICAL TO COLLECT KATE AH ABOUT
FACILITY AND INDIVIDUAL
BUILDINGS FOR PAST REPORTS AND
PHONE INTERVIEWS WITH FACILITY
STAFF. IN THE BAT THIS DATA
COLLECTION PROCESS IS
PREFLIGHTING AND DEDICATED MENU
FOR ENTERING DATA AND BAT
INCLUDES SIMPLE FLOORPLAN TOOL
ALLOWING FOR CONSISTIENT NAMING
CONVENTIONS FOR SPACES AND HANDY
PHOTOPROCESSING TOOL TO ALLOW
MANAGERS TO AUDIT PROFILES.
SUDDEN USE TO HELP AUDITORS
AROUND ASSESSORS COLLECTING DATA
REAL-TIME AND BAH THE IS
INSTALLED LOCALLY ON EACH USER'S
MACHINE NO INTERNET ACCESS IS
REQUIRED.
EASY DROPDOWN MENUS CHECKLISTS
AND POP UP TOUCH-FRIENDLY
KEYPADS ARE AVAILABLE ON MUNUS
AND FEATURES OVERCOME DATA ENTRY
PITFALLS ASSOCIATED WITH
SPREADSHEET SYSTEMS FLOORPLAN
INFORMATION IF PROVIDED IN
PREFLIGHT MENU IS ALSO
AVAILABLE.
THE MOST RECENT ADDITION IN THE
BAD INCLUDES MENUS FORMS AND
DATA FIELDS DEDICATED TO
COLLECTION OF FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENT INFORMATION.
WHILE ENERGY AUDITS FACILITY
CONDITION ASSESSMENTS ARE
UNDERPINNED BY MUCH OF THE SAME
DATA SUCH AS BUILDING LOCATION
AND CHARACTERISTICS FCAS HAVE
DIFFERENT SCOPES AND REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS AND BAT NOW
INCLUDES DEDICATED NAVIGATION
MENUS SHOWN IN RED AND INPUT
FIELDS TAILORED FOR FCA DATA
COLLECTI
COLLECTION.
THERE ARE ALSO REPORTS AND DATA
EXPORT TOOLS SPECIFICALLY
DESIGNED FOR FCAS.
DATA COLLECTED WITHIN THE BAT IS
DESIGNED TO BE EASILY EXTRACTED
FOR USE AND ANALYSIS AND
REPORTING.
AND EXTRACT TRANSFORM LOAD OR
ETL TOOL IS BUILT INTO THE BAT
TO MAP BAT DATA FIELD NAMES TO
CORRESPONDING DATA FIELD NAMES
OF THE RECEIVING SYSTEM THAT
WILL BE ESPECIALLY USEFUL FOR
EXPORTING BAT DATA TO
THIRD-PARTY DATABASES SUCH AS
BUILDER SUSTAINABLE MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM AND ENERGY CONSERVATION
MEASURE OR ECM RESULTS CAN ALSO
BE STORED AND MANAGED FROM
WITHIN THE BAT AND ECM PROJECT
IMPLEMENTATION AND MEASURING AND
VERIFICATION ARE TRACKED AND
MANAGED BY BUILDING AND ECM AND
OUTPUT REPORTING IS EXTENSIVE
WITH VARIETY OF CANNED REPORTS
TO BE FILTERED PRINTED OR SAVE
THE AS EXCEL FILES AND IN FACT
ANY REPORTS BUILT INTO THE BAT
CAN BE SAVED IN EXCEL OR CSC
FORMAT NOTED PREVIOUSLY EXPORT
TEMPLATE FILES ARE AVAILABLE FOR
UPLOADING INFORMATION TO
COMPLIANCE TRACKING SYSTEM IN
SUMMARY THE BAH THE IS A
STRAIGHTFORWARD SIMPLE TO
UNDERSTAND TOOL THAT WILL HELP
USERS COLLECT AND MANAGE
BUILDING ENERGY AND FACILITY
ASSETS WHETHER YOU NEED A
DIGITAL DATA COLLECTION TOOL TO
POPULATE EXISTING ENTERPRISE
DATABASE SYSTEM OR STANDALONE
ALL IN ONE SOLUTION TO CAPTURE
AND STORE BUILDING FACILITY DATA
THE BAT IS DESIGNED TO OFFER YOU
FLEXIBILITY YOU NEED.
>> OKAY. THANK YOU.
AM I OFF MUTE? I WANTED TO
CHECK.
CAN I BE HEARD?
>> YEAH. WE CAN HEAR YOU.
>> YEAH.
>> OKAY. WANTED TO CHECK AND
MAKE SURE IT WORKED.
CAN YOU GO TO THE NEXT SLIDE,
CHRIS, PLEASE?
SLIDE 34.
AGAIN, AS WE MENTIONED IF YOU
DOWNLOAD, THE BAH THE IS
AVAILABLE ON THE WHOLE BUILDING
DESIGN GUIDE WEB SITE AVAILABLE
TO ANY AGENCY OR PUBLIC TO
DOWNLOAD AND WANT TO GIVE YOU A
NOTE THAT VERSION THAT IS THERE
NOW IS A MUCH, MUCH OLDER
VERSION OF ORIGINAL FISCAL 20
VERSION WE INITIALLY DESIGNED
FOR ENERGY AND RESILIENCE AND WE
ARE WORKING WITH DESIGN GUIDE
WEBSITE ADMINISTRATOR RIGHT NOW
TO POST OUR LATEST VERSION WHICH
HAS A LOT OF UPGRADES TO ENERGY
AND AUDITING AS WELL AS
INCORPORATING FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENT AND ONE WAY TO BE --
THAT SHOULD BE COMING SOON AND
DOE WEBSITE ALSO PROVIDES LINK
TO DESIGN GUIDE WEBSITE WHERE
BAT IS LOCATED AND NOTE IS THAT
IT DOES COME IN A 64 BIT OR 32
BIT VERSION ACCORDING TO VERSION
OF MS ACCESS YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE
ON YOUR COMPUTER AND NEXT SLIDE,
SLIDE 35. BIG QUICK SHOUTOUT I
MENTIONED BEFORE ARMY CORPSE OF
ENGINEERS HAS BUILDER ASSESSMENT
TOOL AND EXCELLENT TOOL FOR
FACILITY CONDITION ASSESSMENT
AND NOTE THAT THE BAT IS
DESIGNED TO IMPORT AND EXPORT
DATA BETWEEN BUILDER AND BAT AND
YOU CAN USE BAH THE TO COLLECT
SAME DATA AS BREAD TOOL TO
UPLOAD TO BUILDER AS WELL.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 36.
AND NOW, WE ARE GOING TO GO INTO
THE NEXT SECTION WHICH IS
TALKING ABOUT FACILITY PROJECTS
AND FINANCING OF THE PROJECTS
THAT WE CALL ACM + R + CS.
NEXT SLIDE.
SLIDE 37, SO, WHAT IS AN
ACM + R + C. ENERGY EFFICIENCY
WATER CONSERVATION MEASURE OR
ACM DEFINITION OF THAT IS
INSTALLATION OR MODIFICATION OF
INSTALLATION IN A BUILDING
PRIMARILY INTENDED TO MAINTAIN
IN CASE OF WORLD MANAGEMENT
SYSTEMS OR REDUCE ENERGY AND
WATER CONSUMPTION OR ENERGY AND
WATER COST OR ALTERNATIVE ENERGY
SOURCES LIKE RENEWABLE ENERGY
AND CONDITION PROJECTS ARE
GENERALLY REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
BASED ON FACILITY CONDITION
MEASURED BY CONDITION INDEX
PRESENT REPLACEMENT VALUE AND
COMPONENT REPLACEMENT VALUE AND
RESILIENCE IS ABILITY TO ADAPT
TO CHANGING CONDITIONS AND
RECOVER FROM DISRUPTION AND
ECM + R IS ECM BY VIRTUE OF
IMPLEMENTATION INCREASES ABILITY
OF ENERGY OR WATER SYSTEM TO BE
MORE RESILIENT.
ECM + R + C IS ECM THAT WHEN
IMPLEMENTED ENHANCES NOT ONLY
ENERGY AND WATER EFFICIENCY BUT
FACILITY RESILIENCE AND PENDING
REPAIRS OR UPGRADES CONSTRUCTION
TO IMPROVING CONDITION.
THOSE PROJECTS THAT HAVE
ECM + R + C ARE TRY FEKTA
PROJECTS LIKELY TO GET BIGGEST
BANG FOR BUCK IF YOU CAN FINANCE
THEM AND NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 38
AND EXAMPLES OF ECM + R + C AND
LOOKING AT LEFT FROM EITHER A
FACILITY CONDITION OR ENERGY
PROJECT CONSIDERATION, I MIGHT
LOOK AT A HIGH EFFICIENCY FEED
WATER PUMP TO REPLACE THAT
MOVING OVER ACROSS THE ROAD AND
TYPICAL ECM IS TO ADD VARIABLE
FREQUENCY DRIVE ON THERE TO GET
ME MORE ENERGY SAVINGS AND
PERHAPS A RESILIENCE ASPECT
MIGHT BE TO IF IT IS IN THE
EQUIPMENT IS IN A FLOOD ZONE AND
RELOCATING IT ABOVE THE FLOOD
ZONE AND COOLING SYSTEM
CONDITION PROJECT TYPICALLY I
MIGHT WANT TO REPLACE A CHILLER
FOR IN-KIND CHILLER AND ENERGY
MANAGER AND WANTING TO INSTALL
MORE EFFICIENT CHILLER AND
RESILIENCE I MIGHT INSTALL THAT
MORE EFFICIENT CHILLER AND SIZE
FOR TERMINAL STORAGE.
RESILIENCE IF IT IS NECESSARY
YOU MIGHT HAVE TO MAKE WINDOWS
GLASS RESISTENT GLAZING AND PUT
SHUTTERS ON THEM IF BUILDINGS
ARE SUBJECT TO VANDALISM AND
ATTA
ATTACK.
SLIDE 39 DO IT WITHOUT
MENTIONING RESILIENCE AND MICRO
GRADES WE ARE FAMILIAR WITH AS
ENERGY MANAGERS THAT IS
BASICALLY A MECHANISM. IT IS A
GROUP OF INTERCONNECTED LOADS
AND DISTRIBUTIVE ENERGY
RESOURCES CAN YOU DEFINE
ELECTRICAL BOUNDARIES AT A SITE
THAT LET'S YOU TO CONNECT OR
DISCONNECT FROM THE ELECTRIC
GRID TO ENABLE SITES TO OPERATE
BOTH IN GRID CONNECTED MODE OR
IN ISLAND MODE FOR INSTANCE IF
YOU ARE DURING A HURRICANE IF
GRID GOES DOWN USE MICRO GRID TO
USE YOUR SITE AND BACKUP
GENERATIONS AND HELPS YOU
SPECIFICALLY ALLOCATE THAT POWER
TO YOUR MOST IMPORTANT MISSION
ESSENTIAL ASSETS.
QUICK LOOK AT ENERGY SOURCES TO
PAIR WITH MICRO COMBRIDS
COMBINED HEAT AND POWER SYSTEMS
SOLAR PV SYSTEMS AND OTHER
RENEWABLES AND STORAGE SYSTEMS
LIKE BATTERIES AND FOSSIL BASED
SYSTEMS ALSO LIKE BACKUP
GENERATORS AND BOILERS NEXT
SLIDE 40 I WON'T GO THROUGH THIS
LIST AND WE WERE TALKING ABOUT
ECM + R PROJECTS AND THEY ARE
LIS
LISTS.
SLIDE 41, NEXT. THIS IS ANOTHER
WAY TO VISUALIZE THAT AS A
MATRIX VIEW AS I MENTIONED EARLY
UP FRONT YOU MIGHT WANT TO SET
UP A SPREADSHEET OR MATRIX IN
FIRST COLUMNS THERE LOOKING AT
BUILDING CODES FOR ENERGY AND
MORE CONSERVATION MEASURES YOU
HAVE IN CTS ACROSS ROWS ARE
RESILIENCE CONSIDERATIONS CAN
YOU PUT HIGH, MEDIUM AND LOW
CROSSWALK IN THERE TO SEE IF
WHERE YOUR PROJECTS HAVE
OVERLAPPING BENEFITS HERE
INSTEAD OF LOOKING AT IT AS AN
ENERGY PROJECT OR RESILIENCE
PROJECT.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 42.
THIS JUST QUICKLY GOING THERE
YOU THIS, YOU KNOW, THIS IS AN
EVALUATION PROCESS WHERE YOU
WILL CONDUCT ENERGY AUDIT
CONDITION ASSESSMENT TO COME UP
AND HAVE YOUR SCOPE INCLUDE
LOOKING AT ELEMENTS NECESSARY TO
EVALUATE RESILIENCE WHILE
AUDITORS ARE OUT THERE AND
TRYING TO DEFINE IT UP FRONT AND
AUDITORS WILL PREPARE A LIST OF
ALL ECMS AND MAKE SURE THEY
INCLUDE THOSE THAT THE AUDITOR
MIGHT TYPICALLY ASSOCIATE WITH
POOR PAYBACK AND RETURN ON
INVESTMENT AS FAR AS ENERGY
PAYBACK OR WATER PAYBACK EVEN IF
IT HAS LOW PAYBACK VALUE IT MAY
IN FACT HAVE CRITICAL RESILIENCE
VALUE TO THOSE.
DON'T EXCLUDE ECMS IF THEY DON'T
GIVE GREAT ENERGY FEEDBACK AND
IDENTIFY ECMS + RS AND DO A
COMPLETE LIFE CYCLE COST
ANALYSIS WITH OR WITHOUT THAT R
AND RESILIENCE VALUE ON THERE
AND FINALLY AUDITORS WILL
PREPARE A SET OF RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR ECMS AND ECM + R PROJECTS
HERE THAT IS COMING WITH AN
ENERGY AUDIT.
NEXT SLIDE, SLIDE 43.
NEXT STEP NOW I HAVE ALL MY
PROJECTS IN HAND AND NOW I HAVE
TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO
PRIORITIZE THOSE PROJECTS AND
THAT IS WHERE A PROJECT
PRIORITIZATION MULTIFACTOR
PROJECT PRIORITIZATION TOOL TO
COME IN VERY HANDY TO HAVE THAT
AND BUILD ONE AND ON -- PROJECTS
AGAIN ACROSS THE SPECTRUM OF
ASPECTS TO COME UP WITH AN
AGREED LIST OF PRIORITIZATION
CRITERIA WHOEVER THE KEY
STAKEHOLDERS INVOLVED HERE THAT
YOU COME UP WITH CRITERIA YOU
CAN AGREE ON AND COME UP WITH
SCORING SCHEMA FOR EACH OF THE
CRITERIA AND HOW YOU WILL SCORE
THEM AND IF YOU HAVE A MULTIPLE
PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA TO COME
UP WITH A SET OF AGREED UPON
RELATIVE WEIGHTS AMONG CRITERIA
AND NO THE ALL CRITERIA YOU
MIGHT NOT WANT TO EQUALLY WEIGHT
THEM ALL AND GIVE THEM
DIFFERENTIAL WAITING AND
EXAMPLES OF KEY PROJECT
PARAMETERS AND DATA THAT YOU CAN
USE ON PROJECTS TO MEASURE
AGAINST CRITERIA INCLUDING
THINGS LIKE DOLLAR CAP OF COST
AND NET SAVINGS AND QUANTITIES
OF ENERGY AND WATER REDUCTIONS
OR GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTIONS AND
RESILIENT FACTORS IF YOU HAVE
RESILIENCE SCORE AND WHAT IS
ACCEPTABLE DOWNTIME OF FACILITY
OR FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENTS AND CONDITION
INDEXES IS OFTEN USED AND
WHETHER PROJECT WILL MEET
SUSTAINABLE BUILDING GUIDING
PRINCIPLES THERE IS SAFETY AND
HEALTH ASPECTS USUALLY AND WITH
CLIMATE CHANGE NOW AND EMPHASIS
ON ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE TOO AND
ERN ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE ARE
THERE ASPECTS TO THESE TOO AND
COMPLUNTIES AND HAVING IMPACTS
ON COMMUNITIES FOR INSTANCE.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 44 AND
QUICKLY IS AN EXAMPLE OF AUDITS
TO GET ECONOMIC DATA SOURCES.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 45.
AND YOUR CRITERIA DON'T HAVE TO
DO QUANTITATIVE SCORING OF
EVERYTHING YOU CAN DO
QUALITATIVE SCORING AND CRITERIA
WE HAVE USE TODAY TRY TO HELP
PRIORITIZE SOME -- A HOST SET OF
RESILIENCY AND SUSTAINABILITY
PROJECTS AND IN THIS CASE SCALE
OF 1 TO 5 AND LOW TO HIGH HOW
IMPORTANT IS THIS PROJECT IN
TERMS OF IN THIS CASE AS WE
LOOKED AT MISSION OPERATIONS AND
SUPPORTING MISSION CRITICAL
FUNCTION RS AND IMPROVING
REDISTILL YENGS OF FACILITIES
AND HOW WELL THEY CONTRIBUTED TO
ENERGY WATER AND GREENHOUSE GAS
AND COST IN VOLUME SAVINGS AND
RETURN ON INVESTMENT AND HOW
WELL DOES IT CONTRIBUTE TO
PORTFOLIO SUSTAINABLE GUIDINGS
AND PRINCIPLES AND HEALTH
DEFICIENCIES AND CONCERNS AND
DOES IT HAVE IMPACT ON
ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE AND FOR
SCORING PROJECTS YOU WANT
SOMEBODY REALLY FAMILIAR WITH
THE PROJECTS THAT HAS GOOD
ENGINEERING JUDGMENT.
THIS IS A QUALITATIVE JUDGMENT
HERE.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 46.
THEN WE HAVE A SET OF PROJECTS
AND HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO
FINANCE THEM TO IMPLEMENT THEM
AND GENERALLY SPEAKING I POINTED
OUT EARLIER TWO BROAD CATEGORIES
TO DIRECT FUND USING
APROPRIATIONS FROM CAPITAL
PROJECTS BUDGET AND MOST
AGENCIES LIKE DHS WE HAVE
LIMITED AVAILABLE APPROPRIATIONS
FUNDING FOR PROJECTS WE HAVE
THAT COULD BE A CONSTRAINT.
IN CASE OF ENERGY AND WATER
PROJECTS WITH THAT KIND OF
PAYBACK YOU CAN LEVERAGE IN
ADDITION ALTERNATIVE FINANCE AND
ENERGY PERFORMANCE CONTRACTS
LIKE ESPCS AND UESPS AND
CONTRACTS FINANCING IS PROVIDED
UP FRONT BY PRIVATE SECTOR
COMPANIES AND COULD BE UTILITY
COMPANY.
CUSTOMER AGENCY PAYS BACK THAT
UP FRONT COST AND INTEREST
ANNUALLY THAT COMES OUT OF THEIR
ENJIRJ AND WATER UTILITY SAVINGS
OVER THE LIFE OF THE CONTRACT
INSTEAD OF PAYING YOUR UTILITY
COMPANY FOR ENERGY AND WATER
BILL AND IF YOU MAKE YOUR
FACILITY MORE EFFICIENT PUTTING
UP FRONT INVESTMENT AND SAVINGS
AND AVOIDED COST IN UTILITY
BILLS IN FUTURE USING THOSE
SAVINGS TO PAY BACK PERFORMANCE
CONTRACT OVER THE LONG TERM AND
LIKE TAKING OUT A MORTGAGE ON
YOUR HOUSE GOING TO BANK AND
GETTING FINANCING AND LIVING IN
HOUSE NOW AND PAYING BANK BACK
OVER THE LONG TERM WITH INTEREST
AND ECMS OVER THESE CONTRACTS
AND ECMS MUST SAVE ENERGY AND
WATER TO BE FINANCIALLY VIABLE
UNDER PERFORMANCE CONTRACT AND
IF NO NET POSITIVE PAYBACK,
CONTRACT WILL BE UNDER WATER
THAT YOU CAN DO BUY-DOWN OF THAT
WITH APPROPRIATIONS THAT WE WILL
TALK ABOUT MORE LATER AND IN
CASE OF ENERGY SAVINGS
PERFORMANCE CONTRACT, THE
PREDICTED UTILITY AND FUTURE
SAVINGS HAS TO BE GUARANTEED.
IF YOU ARE -- IF THOSE PROJECTS
DON'T MEET SAVINGS YOU DON'T
HAVE TO PAY BACK ESCROW AND IN
CASE OF UTILITY ENERGY SERVICE
KONZ TRACT SAVINGS DON'T HAVE TO
BE GUARANTEED WITH YOUR UTILITY
COMPANY AND AGAIN BOTTOM LINE
HERE IMPLEMENTING ECMS AND
PERFORMANCE CONTRACTING ARE MORE
DRIVEN BY ENERGY ACT OF 2020 AND
NEW GOAL AND TARGETS UNDER NEW
EXECUTIVE ORDERS AND WRU CAN AND
SHOULD NOT MISS YOUR
OPPORTUNITIES TO CLAIM AND
REPORT AND TAKE CREDIT FINANCING
ECMS BECAUSE WE HAVE TO ALL DO
DATA ACCOUNTING ON ECM PROJECT
IMPLEMENTING AND PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTS WE ARE DOING AND NEXT
SLIDE IS SLIDE 47.
HOW DO WE GO ABOUT PAYING PLUS
SIGNS FOR RESILIENCE AND COST
EFFECTIVE ECM IMPLEMENTED ON
PERFORMANCE CONTRACTS I
MENTIONED AND TACK INCENTIVE
PROGRAMS STATES HAVE TO ADD TO
COST FOR MAKING THEM ECONOMIC
AND ECM + R + C UPGRADES MIGHT
HAVE POTENTIAL TO PAY FOR
THEMSELVES ALL OR IN PART AND
NOTE FORGE MARGINAL ECMS + R + C
YOU HAVE TO DO CASH BUY-DOWN
USING APPROPRIATIONS TO ALLOW
ALTERNATIVE FINANCE WITH
SUFFICIENT PAYBACK TO MAKE
CONTRACT VIABLE AND YOU DO
COMBINATIONS THERE WITH
THIRD-PARTY FINANCING AND
APPROPRIATIONS AND SOME CASES
DOING WHAT WE CALL COST BUNDLING
AND YOU MIGHT IMPLEMENT A
PACKAGE OF ECMS WITH VARYING
LEVELS OF COST AND PAYBACK SO
YOU GAIN OVERALL POSITIVE
PAYBACK FOR CONTRACT AND THEY
USUALLY HAVE QUICK AND EASY
RETURN ON INVESTMENT AND SOME
BIG PROJECTS REPLACING HVAC
SYSTEM HAVE LONGER PAYBACK
PERIOD AND IF BUNDLING THEM
TOGETHER YOU CAN MAKE
PERFORMANCE CONTRACT MORE VIABLE
AS A WHOLE AND IF ECM IS ALSO A
FACILITY CONDITION PROJECT LIKE
END OF LIFE EQUIPMENT
REPLACEMENT, YOU SHOULD CONSIDER
IT IS ALREADY A MUST INVEST SOME
COSTS.
IF HVAC SYSTEM IS AT END OF THE
LIFE YOU HAVE TO USE
APPROPRIATIONS TO REPLACE HVAC
SYSTEM ANYWAY AND IN CASES WE
SHOULD ONLY EVALUATE ECM + R ON
INCREMENTAL COST BASIS NOT
CONSIDERING REPLACEMENT OF HVAC
SYSTEM IN CASES AS ECM WHEN
FIGURING OUT ANALYSIS THAT WE
WILL SHOW YOU WITH CASE STUDIES
AND A NOTE HERE THAT IN SOME
CASES PAYING FOR WATER
CONSERVATION CAN BE A CHALLENGE.
GENERALLY LOWER RETURN ON
INVESTMENT FOR A WATER
CONSERVATION PROJECT COMPARED TO
ENERGY AND PART IS DUE TO THE
FACT THAT VERY OFTEN MUNICIPAL
WATER COSTS LESS THAN ENERGY
DOES IN MANY AREAS SO YOU DON'T
GET THAT RETURN ON INVESTMENT
FOR PERFORMANCE CONTRACT AND
THAT MAY REQUIRE LARGE-SCALE
AGGREGATION AND BUNDLING FOR
WATER PROJECTS AND NEXT SLIDE IS
SLIDE 48 AND WE WILL JUMP INTO
CASE STUDIES WHERE WE WILL TRY
TO PUT CONCEPTS TOGETHER.
NOTING THEY ARE CASE STUDIES
THAT TERRY'S AUDITORS HAVE DONE
NOT IDENTIFYING SITES OR
ANYTHING BUT COST DATA FROM
THOSE AND IS TAKEN FROM THE
REAL-LIFE SITUATIONS.
NEXT SLIDE.
FIRST CASE STUDY CONDITIONED
SCENARIO CHILLED WATERPIPES ARE
POOR CONDITION READY FOR
REPLACEMENT AND NO YEARS OF LIFE
REMAINING ON PUMPS FIRST LOOKING
AT THIS AS A CONDITION ASSESSOR
LOOKING AT IT AS CONDITION ONLY
PROJECT REPLACING EXISTING PUMPS
WITH CAPITAL COST OF 2200 AND
REPLACING WITH SAME PUMPS WON'T
GET NEW ENERGY COST SAVINGS IN
THE FUTURE AND 10-YEAR PRESENT
VALUE LIFE CYCLE ENERGY COST
SAVINGS IS -22400 THAT IS COST
OF THE PROJECT AND ASSUMING A
10-YEAR LIFE ON NEW PUMPS AND
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 49 OR 50 I
MEAN.
CONTINUING ON AT THIS
SI
SITE.
THIS FACILITY IS LOCATED IN A
FLOOD ZONE WITH MULTIPLE
FLOODING ISSUES IN LAST 10 YEARS
FACILITY DISTRICT COOLING PLANT
TO ACTUALLY SHUT DOWN FOR A FEW
DAYS IT CAUSED.
LOOKING AT PROJECT FROM
RESILIENCE PERSPECTIVE, I WANT
TO RELOCATE PUMPS AND IF TAKING
EXISTING PUMPS DISCONNECTING AND
REMOVING UP HAS CAPITAL COST OF
$12,300 AND NOT GETTING ME
ENERGY COST SAVINGS END OF 10
YEARS LIFE CYCLE COST ENERGY
SAVINGS IS -12,300 WITH CAPITAL
COST AND WENT OUT AS ENERGY
AUDITOR AND LOOKED AT PUMPS
ADDING VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE
WILL GET ME ENERGY SAVINGS AND
IN THIS CASE AGAIN BECAUSE THIS
IS A CONDITION PROJECT LOOKING
AT INCREMENTAL COSTS ITSELF AND
CAPITAL COST OF $18,600 AND
ANNUAL COST SAVINGS OF $4,500 A
YEAR AND + $28,444 HERE. YOU
WOULD PUT DFDS ON
OLD PUMP SYSTEM ABOUT READY TO
DIE AND FOR ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
HOOER WE WAY
SLIDE 51 LOOKING AT NEXUS
APPROACH FOR APPROPRIATIONS
REPLACING EXISTING PUMPS AT
$2,200,400 AND END OF YEAR
-2,200,400 AND REPLACING PUMPS
AND RELOCATING TO HIGHER FLOOR
AND IN THIS SITUATION IF I
REPLACE PUMPS RELOCATING IN
HIGHER FLOOR GOT LESS COST THAN
$12,000 AND NOT IN ISOLATION AND
DISCONNECTING OLD PUMPS MOVING
THEM AND RESILIENCE COST GOES
FROM -- TO 9275 ACCUMULATED
C + R PROJECT IS $-31,675 AND
END OF 10 YEARS DOESN'T GET ME
ENJIRJ SAVINGS OF --
THIS IN TOTAL WILL COAST ME 50
$50,275 AND GETTING ANNUAL COST
SAVINGS OF $4500 END OF 10 YEARS
NET COU
COST IS $3,256 ANGRANTED UP FRONT
$50 THOUSAND IS A LOT TO PUT UP
THINKING OVER LIFETIME OF
PROJECT IS NET INVESTMENT OF --
WHERE IF I ONLY DO MY PUMP
PROJECT AND ONLY SPEND
$2,200,400 REPLACING THE SAME
PUMPS AT END OF 10 YEARS I'M
$22,400 OVER LIFE OF PROJECT IS
EXAMPLE WRU CAN START TO
CAPITALIZE ON BUNDLING KINDS OF
PROJECTS YOU PUT TOGETHER.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 52.
NOW, WE WILL LOOK AT THE SAME
PROJECT AND FROM THE
PERSPESHGTIVE OF LEVERAGING ALTH
TERNTIVE FNLSING AND I HAVE ECM
PROJECT THERE AND PERFORMANCE
CONTRACT I START WITH ECM AND
SEE WHAT I CAN BUILD ON THAT AND
CAPITAL COST FOR VFDS WAS 18,600
IF ADDING REDISTILL YEN TO 39
THOUSAND 900.
COST IS 39,900 REPLACING PUMPS
MOVING TO HIGHER FLOOR AND INPUT
OF VFDS AND INPUT IS -- LIKE
PREVIOUS SLIDE AND ANNUAL ENERGY
SAVINGS IN THE CASE IS $4500 A
YEAR AND NOW I WILL DO
ALTERNATIVE FINANCING THAT I
MENTIONED EARLIER THAT YOU DON'T
GET MONEY UP FRONT FROM ANYBODY
FOR FREE THERE WILL BE INTEREST
CHARGE ON PAY BACK LIKE YOUR
MORTGAGE AND WE CALL IT THE
HURDLE RATE THAT IS ALSO
SOMETIMES CALLED REQUIRED RATE
OF RETURN OR TARGET RATE THIS IS
MINIMUM AMOUNT ENERGY SERVES AS
COMPANY AND ESSKROE EXPECTS TO
EARN ON INVESTMENT AND 12%
HURDLE RATE AND DOING
CALCULATIONS WITH THAT ALSO
FACTORED IN AT END OF 10 YEARS
LIFE CYCLE COST SAVINGS WITH ECM
ALONE YOU HAVE POSITIVE SAVINGS
OF $15,000 WITH ECM + R AND
NEGATIVE $6,000 AROUND
ECM + R + C IS 39,200 INVESTMENT
REPLACING WHOLE PUMP IS
2,200,400.
SO, IN ORDER TO MAKE THAT IF I
WANT TO DO ECM + R + C I HAVE TO
MAKE THIS CONTRACT ECONOMICS OF
THE ESCROW AND HAVE TO PUT
UP-FRONT APPROPRIATIONS TO DO
BUY-DOWN AND CASE OF ECM + R AND
PUTTING UP FRONT $22,900 I CAN
MAKE THIS BREAK EVEN FOR ESCROW
AND MAKE PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
VIABLE. LOOKING AT NET HERE I
WAS GOING TO REPLACE PUMP AT
COST OF 22,400.
THAT WOULD BE PUMP APROPRIATION
AND $22,900 I HAVE $400 MORALITY
TERNTIVE PERFORMANCE CONTRACT
AND 2200 FOR BUY DOWN I GET --
THAT IS ALSO GOING TO BE MORE
ENERGY EFFICIENT AND MORE
RESILIENT THAT IS BEAUTY OF
LEVERAGING PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTING BUYING PERFORMANCE
LOOKING AT THEM FROM NEXUS
APPROACH AND NEXT SLIDE I WANT
TO DO A CHECK ON TIME.
SO, LET'S LOOK AT THE
CONSIDERATIONS THAT ARE ADDING
RESILIENCE IN ALTERNATIVE
FINANCING AND QUESTIONS YOU WANT
TO ASK YOURSELF CAN WE LEVERAGE
ALTERNATIVE FINANCE FOR
RESILIENCE OR FACILITY CONDITION
PROJECTS IN OTHER WORDS BUILDING
ECMS TO GET PLUS R AND PLUS C
THERE AND WHAT IS IMPACT OF
PERFORMANCE CONTRACT HURDLE RATE
FINANCING COST ON LIFE CYCLE
COST ON SAVINGS ONCE YOU HAVE
INTEREST ON THERE NET AT PRESENT
VALUE SAVINGS AT END OF 10 OR 20
YEARS WILL BE LESS YOU ARE
PAYING INTEREST THROUGHOUT THAT
PERIOD.
WHAT IS THE IMPACT OF RESILIENCE
ADDITIONS ON ECONOMIC VIABILITY
OF PERFORMANCE CONTRACT AND
MAKING IT GO FROM POSITIVE TO
NEGATIVE AND DOING IN PREVIOUS
EXAMPLE AND ONE OPTION IS TO
PARTIALLY BUY DOWN PROJECT WITH
APPROPRIATED FUNDS AND PORTION
OF ESPC MUST BE ALTERNATIVELY
FINANCED.
HOWEVER, UESC CAN BE FULLY PAID
WITH APPROPRIATIONS AND CALLING
UTILITY SERVICES CONTRACK THAT
IS AN EXAMPLE EVEN THERE WHERE
YOU MIGHT WANT TO DO PROJECTS
USING UTILITY COMPANY AND JUST
LOSING YOUR APPROPRIATIONS AND
USING UTILITY COMPANY BASICALLY
AS YOUR CONTRACTOR TO IMPLEMENT
PROJECTS USING APPROPRIATIONS
YOU CAN DO COMPLETE PAY DOWN
WITH UESC.
WITH THIS, I'M GOING TO HAVE
PEOPLE FOR A THOUGHT QUESTION
WITH REGARDS TO RESILIENCE THAT
IS ASKING YOURSELF WHEN YOU WILL
SAY, YOU KNOW, WHAT IS THE
IMPACT OF THIS RESILIENCE AND
WILL IT MAKE THINGS ON ECONOMIC
AND ASK YOURSELF IF THERE IS
OVERWHELM MING RISK NOT FUNDING
SOMETHING ELSE WITH LIMITED
APPROPRIATIONS THAT INSTEAD YOU
WILL USE TO FUND RESILIENCE
IMPROVEMENT TO IMPROVE YOUR
MISSION ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS
RESILIENCE.
AND IN THIS CASE, YOU KNOW,
EVERYBODY TRIES TO MONETIZE
EVERYTHING AND COME UP WITH A
COST ESTIMATE.
YOU MIGHT WANT TO TELL YOURSELF
TO STOP BEING PARALYZED BY
TRYING TO DOLLAR MONETIZE
RESILIENCE CALCULATIONS AND JUST
DO IT.
WHAT IS THE VALUE OF RESILIENCE
IF YOU HAVE A HURRICANE AND THAT
SITE IS GOING TO GO DOWN?
YOU KNOW?
YOU PUT A DOLLAR VALUE ON THIS.
NOW WHAT IS YOUR VALUE OF
MISSION ESSENTIAL OPERATIONS ARE
DOWN FOR A WHILE AND IS VERY
HARD TO PUT A VALUE ON THAT SORT
OF THING AS A GOVERNMENT AGENCY.
WE HAVE CRITICAL MISSION
ESSENTIAL OPERATIONS THAT IS NOT
LIKE A FACTORY AND YOUR
MANUFACTURING WIDGETS FACTORY
GOES DOWN A FEW HOURS FACTORING
COST DON'T HAVE MUCH PRODUCT
GOVERNMENT AGENCIES PROVIDING TO
PUBLIC MISSION ESSENTIAL
FUNCTIONS HAVING SITES GO DOWN
AND NOT BEING RESILIENT MIGHT BE
WORTH AN AWFUL LOT YOU CAN'T PUT
A DOLLAR VALUE ON.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 54.
I WILL GO THERE YOU THIS CASE
STUDY TOO.
IT IS JUST REALLY, REALLY
QUICKLY IN THE INTEREST OF TIME
SO WE HAVE TIME LEFT OVER HERE.
THIS IS, YOU KNOW, SIMILAR WHERE
THERE IS A MORE COMPLEX PROJECT
THAT IS A NATURAL GAS FILED
BOILER SYSTEM THAT IS STILL
OPERATIONAL AND HAS FIVE YEARS
OF SERVICE LIFE REMAINING AS
RESULT OF FACILITY CONDITION
ASSESSMENT AND AS AN ASSESSOR
COSTING 2.7 MILLION TO REPLACE
BOILER HAS 5 YEARS OF LIFE I MAY
OR MAY NOT WANT REPLACE BOILER
AND MIGHT NOT WANT TO INVEST IN
IT. NEXT SLIDE WE WILL USE
APPROPRIATIONS HERE NOT GOING
THROUGH COMPLEXITY OF
PERFORMANCE CONTRACT WITH THIS.
IF I REPLACE JUST THE BOILERS,
IT WILL COST ME 2.7 MILLION AND
END OF 20 YEARS BOILERS HAVE A
20-YEAR LIFE AND ENERGY COST
SAVINGS REPLACING LIKE WITH LIKE
NO SAVINGS DOING NOW AND -2.7
MILLION AND REPLACING BOILERS
WITH BIOMASS COMBINED HEAT AND
POWER PLANT AND CAPITAL
INVESTMENT WILL BE BIG FOR THAT.
MY CUMULATIVE INVESTMENT IS 25.5
MILLION AND I WILL GET A 2.51
MILLION ANNUAL COST SAVINGS
USING BIOMASS STAGE P. END OF
20 YEARS I WILL COME OUT WITH
POSITIVE 2.31 MILLION IN NET
ENERGY SAVINGS.
NOW, SUPPOSE I WANT TO ADD
RESILIENCE ON THAT REPLACING
EXISTING BOILERS WITH BIOMASS
COMBINED HEAT AND POWER SYSTEM
AND PUTTING [INAUDIBLE] ON THERE
TO DO ISLANDING FOR RESILIENCE
INCREASING PROJECT COST FROM 24
TO .67 MILLION AND AFTER 20
YEARS FIGURING ALL THAT OUT
GIVES ME $900,000 NET COST
SAVINGS IT IS POSITIVE A LITTLE
LESS BUT POSITIVE.
ACM + CONDITION HAS SUBSTANTIAL
SAVINGS OVER PROJECT LICE AND
BASE REPLACEMENT UNDER OPTION C
AND ECM + C + R HAS LOWER
LIFE-TIME COST SAVINGS THAN JUST
ECM + C AND PROVIDES ADDITIONAL
RESILIENCE BENEFIT YOU CAN DO
ISLANDING AT THAT SITE OF YOUR
POWER.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 56 AND I
WON'T GO OVER THIS FOR THOSE
THAT DOWNLOAD SLIDES AND KNOWING
WHERE WE CAME UP WITH ALL OF THE
NUMBERS THAT IS A LITTLE COMPLEX
OF TRADEOFF OF COSTS THAT WE ARE
REPLACING WITH BIOMASS CHP PLANT
AND NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 57.
I WANT TO PIVOT A LITTLE BIT
TALKING ABOUT FACILITY
OPERATIONAL INFORMATION AND
TECHNOLOGY AND INDIVIDUAL
BUILDING COMPONENTS THAT CAN
OPERATE MANY WITHOUT BUILDING
SYSTEMS INTEGRATION OR
COMMUNICATION AND LIMITS
OPERATIONAL SAVINGS AND
RESILIENCE FLEXIBLE AND MODERN
FACILITY ENERGY AND WATER
INFRASTRUCTURE INCLUDES
ECOSYSTEM OF WEB AND
COMMUNICATION ENABLED
TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS ENERGY
INFORMATION SYSTEMS FOR ADVANCED
METERING AND FALT DETECTION AND
DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEMS PUTTING
CENSORS ON EQUIPMENT TO DETECT
IF PERFORMING PROPERLY OR
BREAKING DOWN AND BREAKING DOWN
AUTOMATION SYSTEMS THAT WE ARE
FAMILIAR WITH AND FAMOUS MICRO
GRIDS AND OT AND IT COST SAVINGS
IT THAT MAKE EQUIPMENT UPGRADES
INVESTMENTS EFFICIENT AND
RESILIENT AND NEXT SLIDE IS
SLIDE 58.
WE WANT TO LOOK AT OUR LAST CASE
STUDY HERE THAT WE WILL -- OUR
SAMPLE PROJECT BUILDING
ANALYTICAL SYSTEMS WITH SOFTWARE
AND HARDWARE AND COMMUNICATIONS
FOR ENERGY INFORMATION SYSTEM
AND FDD SYSTEM.
WE TOOK SOME COST DATA FROM LAUR
INGRESSEN LAWRENCE BERKELEY LAB
FOR ANALYTICS AND ADDING COST OF
CYBER SECURITY ON TO THIS AND
WHERE WE TOOK COSTS THAT IS
BASED ON DHS PROJECT WE HAD FOR
NEW DMS WHICH WAS A FLAT AND
FIXED RATE COST PER OBTAINING
AUTHORITY TO OPERATE FOR SULFUR
APPLICATION IN THE CLOUD TO GET
THAT APPROVAL THAT WAS GOING TO
COST $230,000 INITIALLY TO GET
AUTHORITY TO OPERATE AND AROUND
150,000 A YEAR TO DO MAINTENANCE
CYBER SECURITY VULNERABILITY
TESTING AND NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE
59 AND PUTTING THEM TOGETHER AS
EIS AND FDD SYSTEM + CYBER
SECURITY AND WE CAME UP WITH
FOUR DIFFERENT SCENARIOS HERE
WHERE YOU HAVE GOT LARGER AND
LARGER YOU KNOW MORE BUILDINGS
AND LARGER CAMPUSES WHERE YOU
PUT EIS FDD SYSTEMS AND
GENERALLY COST GOES THROUGH WITH
NUMBER OF BUILDINGS AND SQUARE
FOOTAGE YOU WILL DO OVER AND 10
YEAR PRESENT VALUE LIFE CYCLE
ENERGY COST SAVINGS SMALL CAMPUS
WITH 25 BUILDINGS WITH PROJECT
ONLY THAT IS 7 THOUSAN$7,137,13$-7,135 AND
OPERATING COST OF 1.5 MILLION
OVER THE 10 YEARS THAT NET OF
THE PROJECT WITH ATL IS MINUS
1.5 MILLION AND IF SCENARIO B
SMALL AGENCY SAY 50 BUILDINGS
HERE AND PROJECT-ONLY I HAVE A
NET POSITIVE $900,000 SAVINGS
FOR THE PROJECT THAT I ADD 1.5
MILLION OVER 10 YEARS FOR THE
AUTHORITY TO OPERATE CYBER
SECURITY AND I HAVE NEGATIVE
$600,000 AFTER 10 YEARS AS MY
NET SAVINGS.
IF I GO TO LARGER PROJECTS LAST
TWO SCENARIOS C AND D WITH 100
BUILDINGS AND 200 BUILDINGS AND
2 MILLION SQUARE FEET YOU SEE
PROJECT ALONE HAS 3.36 MILLION
SAVINGS AND BIG PROJECT 12.7
MILLION WHICH IS GREAT HOW MUCH
SYSTEMS CAN SAVE YOU ENERGY OVER
THE LONG TERM AND SECURITY COSTS
1.5 MILLION DOESN'T HAVE NEARLY
THE IMPACT ON BIGGER PROJECTS
AND BOTTOM LINE HERE WHEN YOU
LOOK AT SCENARIO C AND D WHERE
BIG PROJECTS CYBER SECURITY MAY
NOT IMPACT OUTCOME OF THE
PROJECTS SO MUCH AND IF YOU HAVE
REALLY SMALL PROJECTS AND
SYSTEMS OR REAL SMALL UTILITY
INVOICE DATA MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
THAT CYBER SECURITY COST CAN
TURN WHAT WOULD BE GOOD SMALLER
PROJECTS AND MAKE THEM NOT
VIABLE.
THEY TURN YOU SO FAR UPSIDE DOWN
NO ONE WANTS TO INVEST SO MUCH
IN CYBER SECURITY BECAUSE IT
COSTS MORE THAN THE SYSTEM
ITSELF AND WHAT WE HAVE RUN INTO
HERE AT DHS AND SUSPECT OTHER
AGENCIES ARE SEEING IT ALSO.
NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE 60.
TAKING AWAY FOR CYBER SECURITY
AND HOWEVER CYBER SECURITY IS A
COST OF DOING BUSINESS IN THE
MODERN WORLD AND MODERN FACILITY
ENERGY AND WATER INFRASTRUCTURE
AND OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS REQUIRE
MODERN CYBER SECURITY AND CAN'T
GO WITHOUT AND REFERRING BACK TO
COLONIAL PIPELINE ASKING THEM
HOW IMPORTANT CYBER SECURITY WAS
ON THEIR SYSTEMS WHEN THEY WERE
SHUT DOWN BY A CYBER ATTACK.
CYBER SECURITY SHOULD BE THOUGHT
OF AS INHERENT OPERATIONS AND
MAINTENANCE COST NOT ADD-ON
ADDITIONAL COST BUT O & M COST
FOR WEB SYSTEM COMMUNICATION AND
WEB ENABLED TECHNOLOGIES AND
TOTAL COST OF CYBER SECURITY
SHOULD BE BUDGETING TO ALL
FACILITY PROJECTS AND CAPITAL
BUDGET PLANS FOR SYSTEMS WHERE
THEY MIGHT POTENTIALLY BE
IMPACTED BY CYBER SECURITY AND
WE WILL GET CYBER SECURITY AND
HAVING TO DEAL WITH THOSE AND
COST GOES I POINTED OUT COST OF
CYBER SECURITY WITH A FIXED
PRICE COULD TURN OTHERWISE
VIABLE OT PROJECT UPSIDE DOWN
AND THIS IN PARTICULAR IMPACTS
THESE SMALLER PROJECTS AND THEY
ARE MORE THAN A LARGER PROJECT
AND JUST AN EDITORIAL NOTE FROM
ME I DON'T HAVE AN ANSWER TO
THIS BUT MY FEELING IS WE NEED
TO FIND A BETTER AND MORE
BALANCED SOLUTION.
CYBER SECURITY SHOULDN'T BE AN
OVERWHELMING BURDEN OR COST
HURDLE FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL ITEM
OF OT SYSTEM NEVER GETTING 21ST
CENTURY SYSTEMS AND ALL OF THE
OTHER GREAT STUFF WE WANT ON THE
SYSTEMS AND NEXT SLIDE IS SLIDE
61.
THIS IS MY CLOSING SLIDE.
AGAIN, NOW THE BOTTOM LINE AT
THE BACK END JUST TO REITERATE
AND IMPLEMENTING NEXUS APPROACH
REQUIRES CULTURE CHANGE IN OUR
THINKING AND VIEWING AND
MANAGING FACILITIES IN HOLISTIC
WAY AND INTEGRATED ACROSS
TRADITIONAL LINES OF BUSINESS
AND BREAKING DOWN STOVE PIPES
AND BUDGET AND FINANCING
PROCESSES CONSIDER LEVERAGING
ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE
CONTRACTS TO STRETCH LIMITED
APROPRIATION DOLLARS AND PUTTING
PROJECTS TOGETHER IN THE RIGHT
WAY YOU CAN GET A BIG BANG FOR
YOUR BUCK AND FINALLY INHERENT
COST OF CYBER SECURITY BUDGETED
AS REGULAR O & M COST AND
UPGRADING PORTFOLIOS TO 21ST
CENTURY AND MEETING REQUIREMENTS
FOR RESILIENCE AND CLIMATE
CHANGE AND ADAPTATION AND WITH
THAT THANK YOU. OPEN FOR
QUESTIONS IF WE SAVED QUESTIONS
FROM THE AUDIENCE.
>> THANK YOU DR. HERINGTON.
WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED QUESTIONS
SO FAR.
WE HAVE --
>> ACTUALLY, WE HAVE ONE
QUESTION.
SORRY. IT IS FROM CONNOR. SHE
IS ASKING DOES THE BAT TOOL MEET
REQUIREMENTS OF EISA COMPLIANCE
AUDIT?
>> YES. YES. IT IS DESIGNED TO
DO LEVEL 2ASHRAY AUDITS.
YES. IT WILL DO AND WE WANT TO
DESIGN IT FOR THAT AND ACTUALLY
SEVERAL COMPONENTS HAVE BEEN
USING IT ALREADY FOR AUDITING
AND ACTUALLY FEMA IS GOING ON
SECOND ROUND OF 4-YEAR AUDITS
THEY COMPLETED THIS YEAR USING
THE BAT.
>> >> GREAT. THANK YOU.
>> I NOTE MY E-MAIL IS LOADING
AND HADN'T RECEIVED THAT
QUESTION. BUT WHILE WE WAIT FOR
SOME OTHER QUESTIONS TO COME ANY
THINK ONE THING I'M STRUCK BY
DR. HERINGTON IS COMPREHENSIVE
NATURE YOU PRESENTED AND SUSPECT
MANY FOLKS ARE ON THE LINE THAT
ARE INTERESTED IN DELVING INTO
THIS AGAIN OR IN GREATER DETAIL
IN PART. I'M WONDERING IF YOU
OFFER TRAINING ON THIS
REGULARLY? PLACES PEOPLE CAN GO
TO RECEIVE MORE TRAINING ON WHAT
YOU PROVIDED?
>> HAVEN'T GOTTEN THAT YET.
MATTER OF FACT WE HAVE DEVELOPED
IT OVER TIME AND AS REALLY WE
FELT AS A TWO-HOUR TRAINING. I
WENT AT LIGHTNING SPEED. WE CUT
BACK ON SLIDES AND THERE IS MORE
DETAILED INFORMATION WHEN YOU DO
A REAL LONG TRAINING AND WHAT WE
HOPE TO DO IN NOT TOO DISTANT
FUTURE IS FINALLY GET THE
TWO-HOUR TRAINING UP AND
COMPILED AND TWO WAYS WE WANT TO
DO LIVE WEB TRAINING AND WILL
INVITE OTHER AGENCIES AROUND DHS
COMPONENTS AND WANT TO TRY TO
RECORD THE LONGER VERSION OF THE
TRAINING THAT IS WHY WE ARE
INTERESTED IN THE TRAINING TODAY
AND IT BEING RECORDED AND POSTED
AND PEOPLE CAN DO IT AS A
WEBINAR ON DEMAND TO DO AT OWN
LEISURE AND WHEN WE HAVE THE
TWO-HOUR CLASS REALLY SET UP,
YOU KNOW, MAYBE 2 OR 3 TIMES A
YEAR OFFERING THEM LIVE TRAINING
SESSIONS THAT PART OF THE VALUE
IS HAVING THAT Q & A IF IN THE
LIVE SESSIONS THAT YOU DON'T GET
WITH A RECORDED WEBINAR.
>> INDEED. ALL RIGHT. THANK
YOU. IF WE HAVE OTHER FOLKS WHO
HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE DO USE
THE LIVE FEEDBACK BUTTON AT
BOTTOM LEFT OF YOUR WEB VIEWER
TO SEND THEM IN. HOPEFULLY WE
WILL RECEIVE THEM IN OUR INBOX
QUICKLY.
YOU MENTIONED THE IDEA THAT WE
NEED TO THINK ABOUT MANAGING
FACILITIES AND TYING BACK TO
EARLIER TODAY HOW DO YOU SEE
SYSTEMS PLAYING A ROLE IN
HELPING THAT FACILITIES
MANAGEMENT OR ARE THEY SEPARATE
ENTITIES?
>> NO. I THINK THAT -- NO. IT
IS DEFINITELY, AGAIN, WE WANT TO
TAKE A HOLISTIC APPROACH TO
EVERYTHING AND WHY PARTICULARLY
IN INTEREST ABOUT PETER'S
PRESENTATION KICKING OFF OUR
SESSION ABOUT ISO DOING
HIGH-LEVEL STRUCTURE.
THERE IS COMMONALITIES ON ALL
THESE THINGS AND ONE THING WE
WANT TO GET AWAY FROM IS LOOKING
AT THINGS FROM ONLY ENERGY OR
ENVIRONMENTAL PERSPECTIVE AND WE
IOS PERSPECTIVE AND LOOKING AT
FACILITIES FROM HOLISTIC
PERSPECTIVE AND RESILIENCE AT
DHS DRIVES US TO FORCE TO
INTEGRATE ACROSS BUSINESSES AS
WELL AND THOSE KINDS OF ISO
SYSTEMS WORK AND LIKE THE IDEA
OF A PRIOR PRESENTATION THAT
SAID THEY COMBINED ENERGY AND
ENVIRONMENTAL ISO MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM TO A SINGLE ENTITY THAT
IS THE WAY TO START TO GO INTO
THE FUTURE INSTEAD OF KEEPING
SILOS AND STOVE PIPES AND
PROBABLY BIGGEST PROBLEM WE HAVE
OUT THERE MANAGING FACILITIES IS
REAL PROPERTY PEOPLE ARE NOT
TALKING TO ENERGY PEOPLE AND NOT
TALKING TO SUSTAINABILITY PEOPLE
AND TRYING AND DEFINITELY NOT
TALKING TO ENVIRONMENTAL
COMPLIANCE PEOPLE AND AT OUR
AGENCY IT HAS TAKEN A WHILE AND
WE ARE STARTING TO GET PEOPLE TO
COME ALONG TO PROPERTY MANAGERS
AND COMMUNICATING WITH ENERGY
MANAGERS AND STARTING TO LOOK AT
THIS FROM THAT REALLY INTEGRATED
APPROACH AND THERE WAS PUSHBACK
INITIALLY FROM PROPERTY MANAGERS
THAT ALREADY HAD OWN TOOLS AND
HAD FCAS FOR YEARS AND THEY HAD
BUILDER AND COMING ALONG WITH
NEW TOOL AND WIDGET AND CHANGING
WHAT WE DO NOW AND WHAT DO WE
CARE ABOUT ENERGY OR FACILITY
CONDITION?
A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE REALLY
SEEING VALUES OF TAKING THIS
NEXUS APPROACH TO OUR FACILITIES
FACILITIES.
>> EARLIER A COUPLE TIMES IN
YOUR PRESENTATION I NOTED IDEA
OF BUDGETING AND BUDGET PLANNING
AS A KEY ELEMENT OF WHAT YOU ARE
DESCRIBING I UNDERSTAND IT MIGHT
BE A SLIGHTLY SENSITIVE QUESTION
AND WONDERING AT BUDGETING AT
OMB LEVEL AND HOW COMFORTABLE
YOU FEEL WITH THIS INCORPORATING
THIS THINKING INTO THE BUDGET
PLANNING PROCESS.
>> WE ARE JUST GETTING INTO THAT
NOW MUCH MORE RECENTLY JUST IN
THE PAST YEAR.
ACTUALLY, DHS, WE PUT IN A BIG
BUDGET REQUEST TO DO WHAT WE
CALL RESILIENCE ENERGY AND
SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS AS A
SEPARATE REQUEST FROM THE REAL
PROPERTY CAPITAL PLANS AND OF
COURSE WHEN YOU GET HUNDREDS OF
MILLIONS WE ASK FOR AND WE HAVE
SOME AMOUNT FROM OMB IN PASS
BACK STARTING IN FISCAL YEAR 23
AND HAVE GONE THROUGH IN GREAT
COORDINATION WITH REAL PROPERTY
PROGRAM AND WE HAVE GOTTEN FROM
DHS COMPONENTS THEIR LIST OF
RESILIENCE ENERGY AND
SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS AND
CROSSWALKED THEM TO REAL
PROPERTY CAPITAL PLAN PROJECTS
TO MAKE SURE AND SEE WHERE SOME
PROJECTS DID OVERLAP AND YOU ARE
ASKING FOR APPROPRIATIONS
THROUGH YOUR CAPITAL PLAN
BUDGETING AND ONE THING YOU
DEFINITELY DON'T WANT TO DO IS
ASK FOR MONEY THROUGH TWO
DIFFERENT VENUES FOR THE SAME
PROJECT AND WE DID CROSSWALKING
AND MAKING SURE THAT WE DON'T
HAVE OVERLAP ON THOSE PROJECTS.
WE ACTUALLY ARE GETTING FUNDING
TO TRY TO FOCUS ON RESILIENCE
AND ENERGY AND SUSTAINABILITY
AND IS PART OF CLIMATE CHANGE
INITIATIVES WE ARE TRYING TO DO
AT DHS AND THINK MORE AND MORE
AS TIME GOES ON THAT I THINK THE
TWO THINGS HAVE TO BE ROLLED
TOGETHER AND CAPITAL PLAN
TRADITIONALLY IS MOSTLY
CONDITIONED PROJECTS DOING ACMS
AND OTHER THINGS AND MOSTLY
FACILITY CONDITIONED PROJECTS
AND WHERE MORE PEOPLE TEND TO
FOCUS AND MOVING INTO THE FUTURE
WE REALLY HAVE TO START WITH BIG
NUT TO CRACK IS LOOKING AT YOUR
BUDGETING PROCESS AND YOUR
APPROPRIATIONS PROCESS.
BEING ABLE TO MARRY
APPROPRIATIONS WITH CONTRACTING
AND WHERE YOU CAN LEVERAGE THAT
TO DO MORE WORK.
>> INDEED. SIMILAR QUESTION IF
I MAY WITH REGARD TO ALT
FINANCE. TO WHAT DEGREE HAVE
YOU FOUND THE S GOES AND
UTILITIES SERVICE CONTRACT
PROVIDERS TO BE WILLING TO WORK
WITH YOU ON RESILIENCE AND CYBER
SECURITY ISSUES AND YOU HAVE
FOUND THEM TO BE HELPFUL?
>> WE HAVE NOT TACKLED THAT TO A
GREAT DEAL YET AND WOULD HAVE TO
LET SOME COMPONENTS TALK AND
THINK COAST GUARD IS DOING A BIG
MICRO GRID ISBCD NOW AND WOULD
HAVE TO DEFER TO THEM I DON'T
KNOW DETAILS OF THAT BUT CYBER
SECURITY WILL BE A BIG COMPONENT
OF THAT AND I BRING UP EVERY
PAST FEW YEARS AND PEOPLE TALK
ABOUT CYBER SECURITY I BRING UP
QUESTION HAVE YOU INCLUDED COSTS
OF CYBER SECURITY IN THERE?
PEOPLE ARE LIKE WE KNOW IT IS
IMPORTANT AND IT IS KIND OF
ALMOST AN AFTERTHOUGHT. I AM
SAYING WE CAN GO OUT THERE
GETTING ADVANCED METERING AND
BUILDING AUTOMATION SYSTEMS AND
MICRO GRIDS IF YOU DON'T HAVE
CURRENT CYBER SECURITY WITH IT
YOU WON'T OPERATE THEM.
WE HAVE TO REALLY BE TACKLING
THIS WHOLE CYBER SECURITY PART
OF IT.
AND WE CAN THINK OF IT LIKE I
SAID THINK OF IT AS AN INHERENT
O & M COST NOT ADDITIVE BUT O &
M COUGH THE LIKE PAYING UTILITY
BILL AND IF WE CHANGE MINDSET
MOVING INTO THE FUTURE AND
WORKING MORE WITH IT AND CIO
SHOPS SO THAT THEY BETTER
UNDERSTAND WHAT OPERATIONAL
TECHNOLOGY IS AND BETTER
UNDERSTANDING WHAT IT IS THEY
ARE ASKING US TO DO TO GET
AUTHORITIES TO OPERATE AND
ENERGY MANAGERS DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHAT IT PEOPLE ARE ASKING FOR
AND IT PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND
WHAT OPERATIONAL TECHNOLOGY IS
ALL ABOUT.
THAT IS ANOTHER AREA WHERE WE
HAVE TO REALLY HAVE SOME
INTEGRATED IPTS AND WE WILL TRY
TO STAND UP AT IPT AT DHS TO DO
THAT VERY THING IF IN THE NEXT
YEAR.
>> SPEAKING TO THE ISSUE OF
VARIETY OF STAKEHOLDERS ENGAGED,
RACHEL JOHNSON FROM NIH ASKS:
DO YOU SEE POTENTIAL FOR
INTEGRATING OTHER STAKEHOLDER
INPUTS SUCH AS SAFETY MANAGERS
AS WELL?
>> YEAH. THAT IS ALL PART OF
FACILITIES.
CERTAINLY SAFETY AND HEALTH, YOU
KNOW, THOSE ARE MUST. THERE IS
A REAL DETRIMENT TO SAFETY AND
HEALTH, THOSE ARE MUST-DO
PROJECTS SAFETY AND HEALTH IS
PROBABLY NO. 1 PRIORITY AND HAVE
TO LOOK AT THAT AND WHERE
PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA COUPLE
IN AND RESILIENCE AND
SUSTAINABILITY PROJECTS WE
LOOKED AT IT AS MULTDI FACTOR
CRITERIA WAS THERE SAFETY AND
HEALTH ASPECT TO THIS KIND OF
PROJECT AND WHERE MULTIFACTOR
PRIORITIZATION TOOL COMES IN AND
DOING THAT MITT TRIX LOOK AT
PROJECTS AND SCORING THEM BASED
ON CRITERIA AND WHAT IS WEIGHT
AND SAFETY AND HEALTH AGAINST
RESILIENCE AND ENERGY SAVINGS
AND THINKING SAFETY AND HEALTH
IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ENERGY
SAVINGS IF A REAL SEVERE HEALTH
HAZARD AND COVID GOING BACK TO
BUILDINGS I WANT AIR EXCHANGES
AND FILTRATION SYSTEMS IN
BUILDINGS WITH NEW VIER
YOU'LLIENT VIRUSES NOW HERE TO
STAY.
>> AND.
>> I WANT TO ADD A NOTE BEFORE
THE END HERE TOO IS JUST FOR
ANYBODY THAT IS INTERESTED IN
LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE BUILDING
ASSESSMENT TOOL OR GETTING A
COPY OF THAT, REACH OUT TO ME
DIRECTLY AND MINE AND TERRY'S
TEAM AND I AND TERRY HAS WORKED
WITH ME FOR SEVERAL YEARS
DEVELOPING THAT. CHRIS IS
ACTUALLY THE PROJECT MANAGER ON
THAT AND WE ARE DEPLOYING IT TO
OTHER AGENCIES AND CAN GIVE YOU
A LITTLE SUPPORT ON DOING THAT
AND RIGHT NOW FEW DOE NATIONAL
LABORATORIES AND FACILITY
MANAGERS ARE LOOKING AT USING
BAT TO DO AUDITING AT THEIR OWN
FACILITIES AND WE ARE HAPPY TO
SHARE THIS AND WOULD LOVE TO
SHARE IT ACROSS OTHER AGENCIES.
>> ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU FOR
THOSE THOUGHTS.
AND I APPRECIATE THE
PRESENTATION AND IT WAS A
WHIRLWIND TOUR. WE GOT LOTS OF
USEFUL INFORMATION PROVIDED AND
APPRECIATE YOUR TAKING TIME
TODAY TO SHARE WITH US.
THAT DOES CONCLUDE TODAY'S
MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS TRACK.
FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN ONLINE
ALL DAY TODAY, I APPRECIATE YOUR
ATTENTION AND HOPE THAT YOU
FOUND THE PRESENTATIONS USEFUL
AND PLEASE DO MAKE SURE TO COME
BACK TO FES TOMORROW.
WE WILL BE FEATURING TRACKS IN
SUSTAINABILITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
JUSTICE AND RESILIENCY AND HOPE
YOU WILL FIND THOSE
PRESENTATIONS INFORMATIVE AND
USEFUL.
I SEE SEVERAL THAT I HAVE MY EYE
ON TO ATTEND MYSELF.
AND WITH THAT, I WILL THANK OUR
ENTIRE PANEL AND WISH EVERYBODY
A GOOD DAY!
