1.7. Environmental Management System, Executive Summary For Contractors:

1.7.1. Introduction. In accordance with Air Force Instruction 32-7001, Environmental Management, Shaw Air Force Base (SAFB) has implemented an ISO 14001 based Environmental Management System (EMS). The goal of the EMS is to improve the core business processes of SAFB, as they relate to the environment, seeking to improve and enhance performance in support of the overall mission. The EMS supports a transition from a compliance driven program to one that focuses pollution prevention efforts on managing both environmental and mission risks.

1.7.2. Environmental Policy. Central to the SAFB EMS is the base environmental policy set by Wing Leadership.

The policy establishes fence-to-fence applicability to include all 20th Fighter Wing organizations, all tenants, and contractors conducting business on SAFB property. It further extends applicability to the areas under SAFB control at Wateree Recreational Area and the Poinsett Electronic Combat Range. As indicated in the policy, SAFB leadership is committed to continual improvement, pollution prevention, regulatory compliance, the conservation of natural resources, and the integration of environmental awareness into day-to-day operations.

Through such commitments, SAFB is able to set environmental objectives and targets with focus on enhancing the mission through environmental management.

1.7.3. What is EMS? An EMS is that part of an overall management system that includes organizational structure, planning activities, responsibilities, practices, procedures, processes, and resources for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing, and maintaining the environmental program and achieving environmental goals based on continual-improvement. The EMS is intended to help SAFB balance its mission with maintaining regulatory compliance and developing sustainability strategies to secure this base’s ability to support current and future mission requirements.

1.7.4. Significant Aspects. An aspect is any interaction with the environment caused by activities on SAFB.

Through the EMS, these aspects have been systematically inventoried and evaluated based on the following ranking criteria.

• Relative financial cost

• Risk to the environment

• Risk of regulatory non-compliance

• Potential mission degradation

• Community Concerns

These criteria are scored and weighted for each aspect as recommended by Wing Leadership to establish those environmental aspects deemed most critical to address.

1.7.5. What is My Role? As a contractor performing work on SAFB property you must understand that any activities that directly or indirectly impact the environment, especially the significant aspects listed above, must be communicated with the 20th Civil Engineer Squadron, and the greatest precaution should be taken to avoid negative impacts in these areas. Think of EMS the same way you think about safety. Just as you are aware of all safety hazards associated with your job, you must also be aware of all environmental impacts associated with your job and mitigate those to the extent possible.

To find out more about the SAFB EMS or to discuss potential impacts of contracted activities, contact the 20th Civil Engineer Squadron at 803.895.9987.
