§ 650.231 Purpose.
top
(a) This chapter provides reporting procedures to be followed within the Department of the Army to control environmental pollution from existing facilities as contained in section 3(a) (3) Executive Order 11752 of December 17, 1973, entitled, “Prevention, Control and Abatement of Environmental Pollution at Federal Facilities.” This section of the Executive Order provides that “Heads of Federal agencies shall, with regard to all facilities under their jurisdiction in the United States: * * *. (3) Present to the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), annually, a plan to provide for such improvement in the design, construction, management, operation, and maintenance of existing facilities as may be necessary to meet applicable standards specified * * *”
(b) The report described herein will be the principal mechanism for identifying pollution control projects and those resources needed to effectively execute installation and major command Environmental Programs. Properly defined information presented in this report can be used as a basis for necessary programing and budget actions by DA and major commands.
(c) These instruction implement OMB Circular A-106, dated 31 Dec 74, which supersedes OMB Circular A-78 and A-81, dated 18 May 70.
§ 650.232 Explanation of terms.
top
(a) The terms used herein will be the same as those defined in chapter 1.
(b) The term “project” will mean an action to achieve needed corrective measures relative to identified environmental pollution sources.
(c) The term “cost” will mean the amount of funds required to install the necessary environmental protection measures. These funds include the capital costs of structures and equipment, irrespective of the appropriation chargeable, but not the annual maintenance and operating costs.
§ 650.233 Applicability.
top
Each active, semiactive and Army Reserve installation operated by or for the Department of the Army, and National Guard facilities/sites supported by Federally appropriated funds in the Continental United States; Alaska and Hawaii, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, the Panama Canal Zone, and the Trust Territories of the Pacific, whether Army-controlled or under jurisdiction of the Army by lease or similar instrument, where environmental protection measures do not meet the current requirements and/or standards established by appropriated Federal, State or local regulatory agencies are to be listed in the Environmental Pollution Control Report. Each installation identifying a new pollution source or environmental protection requirement will report through command channels in accordance with these instructions. Negative report will be rendered by responsible commands in the form of a listing of those installations where remedial measures are not needed to correct a source of pollution or where no additional resources are needed to meet the provisions of this regulation.
§ 650.234 Scope.
top
(a) The report described herein consists of one exhibit to be prepared at the installation or activity level and two exhibits to be prepared at the major command level. Reports are to be forwarded through channels to HQDA (DAEN-FEU) WASH, DC 20314, by November 15, and May 15, of each year. The exhibits will reflect information as of October 20, and April 20.

Instructions for the Preparation and Submission of Exhibits
top
§ 650.236 Exhibit 1—Proposed Project.
top
(a) An Exhibit 1 will be prepared and maintained current for all known pollution control projects using the format in Figure 10–1 and for valid environmental protection resource requirements using the format in Figure 10–2. Exhibit 1's previously submitted on air and water pollution control projects which are still valid, but not yet completed, do not have to be resubmitted in the new format except when a significant change takes place to make the earlier Exhibit 1 obsolete. Exhibit 1's are not required for completed projects.
(b) Exhibit 1's for new or revised projects or requirements will be submitted semi-annually by November 15, and May 15, of each year to DAEN-FEU based on the latest information as of 30 days prior to the above reporting dates.
(c) Each project will be identified as to the category of pollution control needed (i.e., air, water, solid waste, radiation, noise, pesticides, and environmental management). Projects within a category will be assigned consecutive numbers by DAEN-FEU beginning with “1.” Project numbers are for permanent identification and may not be reassigned to new projects. Existing air and water pollution control projects previously numbered under RCS DD-I&L(SA) 1383 are to be continued under their originally assigned numbers. These project numbers apply strictly to this report and are not to be confused with or to replace programing line-item numbers.
(d) Each project at the same installation required for a distinct and separate purpose is to be considered a separate project. Separate projects will be reported individually using the project number assigned by DAEN-FEU.
(e) Every item in Figures 10–1 or 10–2 is to be completed for each project. Where no entry is appropriate, enter NA (Not applicable). A specific effort must be made by the installation to obtain any information not immediately on hand.
(f) The following will be reported as other relevant information:
(1) Item 10 of Exhibit 1 will include information not shown elsewhere on the exhibit which is necessary for the evaluation of the project.

§ 650.237 Exhibit 2—Status Report.
top
(a) Exhibit 2 is a command report which provides a financial summary of the projects in the program and their status. A separate Exhibit 2 is required for each media or category of projects (i.e., air, water, noise, solid waste, etc.) and will be submitted semi-annually along with Exhibit 1's on November 15, and May 15 of each year.
(b) Exhibit 2 will include all active projects plus those completed or discontinued subsequent to the submission of the previous report. Once a project is reported as completed or discontinued, it will be dropped from the report. The May 15 report will contain all projects which the command will submit in the next fiscal year budget. In addition, the November 15 report will reflect congressional appropriation action taken on the prior fiscal year budget.
(c) The initial Exhibit 2's for each media will be prepared by the reporting command using the format in Figure 10–10. Subsequent reports will be only an update of the previous command report. As each Exhibit 2 is received from a command, it will be converted to an ADP printout and returned to the reporting command by DAEN-FEU in 45–60 days for use in the next report update. The following updating procedures will be observed:
(1) One copy of a marked-up printout of the previous Exhibit 2 will accompany the semi-annual report.
(2) Corrections, changes and additions will be made neatly with a RED marking pen.
(3) An asterisk in the left margin will be used to identify projects which have been completed, discontinued or changed.
(4) New projects will be added to the bottom of the appropriate media printout.
(5) Exhibit 2's submitted on May 15 will contain the amount included or proposed to be included in the President's budget for each project, or the amount actually appropriated or funded.
(6) Major Command updating will be done only for non-MCA funded projects. MCA funded project status will be updated by DAEN-FEU.
(7) Each revision of Exhibit 2 will reflect the information as of October 20 and April 20, as appropriate.
(8) Funding totals by appropriation type for each fiscal year and for each media reported will be provided at the bottom of the last page.
(9) Current and relevant information will be presented in the “Status” column using the following format:
(i) Indicate “PP—” if the project is in the preliminary planning stage. The blank provided should contain the estimated completion date for construction.
(ii) Indicate “DES—” if the project is under design or has been designed, but is not under construction. The blank provided should contain the estimated completion date for construction and not the completion date of design.
(iii) Indicate “CON—” if the project is under construction. The blank provided should contain the estimated completion date.
(iv) Indicate “CPL—” if the project has been completed. The blank provided should contain the actual completion date.
(v) Indicate “DIS” if the project has been discontinued or dropped. Reasons should be given.
(vi) Indicate “DEF” if the project has been deferred or significantly delayed. Reasons for and what corrective actions taken, if any, should be given.
(vii) Indicate “OTH” if other than the above circumstances apply. An explanation should be given.
§ 650.238 Exhibit 3—Narrative Report.
top
(a) The narrative report will be a brief summary of the command environmental program. No specific format is prescribed; however, it will contain the following:
(1) Financial displays for the current FYDP period by appropriation account (MCA, PA, OMA, etc.) and by program media (air, water, noise, etc.). The elements of the program presented in the Exhibit 1–EM are to be aggregated by management activity to identify funding requirements for training, preparation of EIA/EIS, environmental surveys and studies, personnel costs, etc.
(2) An explanation of the environmental objectives to be achieved by completing the projects reported or funding those activities contained in Exhibit 1's. For any specific portion of the program that requires more than 12 months to complete, identify the major milestones for accomplishing the actions.
(3) Elements of the command program that will be given particular emphasis over the short term.
(4) Projection of when statutory pollution control requirements, Federal or state, will be satisfied by the various elements of a command.
(5) Summary of potential or pending environmental litigation involving installations within the command.
(6) Explanation of anticipated problem areas requiring DA assistance.
(b) The content of the narrative report is basically a forecast of how the major command intends to accomplish its environmental program during the succeeding 12 months. This requirement should not be confused with the requirement for the annual status report (RCS DD-I&L(A) 1269), specified in §650.9 of subpart A of this part of this regulation, which is an annual summary of environmental protection accomplishments for the specified preceding calendar year.
