JULY 2013

Executive Summary

The Base Cape Cod (BCC) and tenant commands’ Environmental Management System (EMS) Manual is the primary guidance document and tool for managing the station’s EMS.

BCC is located within the Massachusetts Military Reservation (MMR) and consists of 17 non-contiguous parcels of federal and state-owned land comprising 3,586 acres. BCC’s airfield has two runways used for military purposes only.

The management of BCC is conducted in a way that ensures aviation safety, provides for sustainable land use, complies with applicable environmental laws and regulations, and provides for no net loss in the capability to support the United States (US) Coast Guard (USCG) and ASCC missions over the long term.

This EMS manual has been developed as the central document describing the key EMS components and work products that are used to maintain the station’s EMS.

Key elements of an EMS include:

Policy

Appointment Letters

Gap Analysis

Implementation Plan

EMS Management Procedures

EMS Registers

EMS Sustainment Planner

This manual outlines how the EMS should be managed on an annual basis.

If appropriately managed, an EMS adds value to the Base in the following three ways:

Enhancing environmental compliance by identifying, prioritizing and managing environmental compliance requirements related to base operations.

Minimizing environmental risk by focusing on areas that could involve elevated levels of environmental risk and reducing the risk.

Improving environmental performance by continually trying to improve performance on an annual basis.

1.0 EMS OVERVIEW AND POLICY

1.1 Purpose

The Environmental Management System (EMS) Manual is the primary working document and tool for managing the United States Coast Guard (USCG) Base Cape Cod (BCC’s) and tenant commands’ EMS.

Located in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, BCC lies completely within Joint Base Cape Cod (JBCC) and consists of 17 non-contiguous parcels of federal and state-owned land encompassing 3,586 acres.

BCC’s airfield has two runways used for military purposes only.

The management of BCC must be conducted in a way that provides for sustainable land use, complies with applicable environmental laws and regulations, ensures aviation safety, and provides for no net loss in the capability to support the USCG and BCC missions over the long term.

The goals of the EMS are three fold:

Enhance environmental compliance

Minimize environmental risk

Improve environmental performance

Implementation of this manual is anticipated to meet the following objectives:

Provide a working guide for the ongoing management of the developed EMS.

Provide a central location to list key management procedures and the station’s Environmental

Policy.

Provide a central location to list and maintain key EMS data registers.

Provide a central location to track and manage current annual EMS Objectives and Targets.

1.2 Requirement to have an EMS

This EMS Manual was developed to meet the requirements of Executive Order (EO) 13514—Greening the Government through Leadership in Environmental Management, signed by President William J.

Clinton on April 21, 2000.

EO 13514 was superseded by EO 13423—Strengthening Federal Environmental, Energy, and

Transportation Management, which was signed by signed by President George W. Bush on January 24, 2007.

EO 13423 required federal agencies to conduct their environmental, transportation, and energy-related activities under the law in support of their respective missions in an environmentally, economically, and fiscally sound, integrated, continuously improving, efficient, and sustainable manner. The order set a

UNITED STATES COAST GUARD ASCC EMS OVERVIEW

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PAGE – 2

variety of goals for federal agencies to reduce energy consumption, increase the use of renewable energy, reduce water consumption, use sustainable environmental practices, reduce the purchase and use of toxic and hazardous materials, follow sustainable practices in building construction, reduce fleet consumption of petroleum-based fuel, and purchase electronically efficient equipment.

Agencies were directed to use EMSs to manage their environmental operations and activities and to ensure implementation of this EO. The USCG requires all large Coast Guard operations to have a functioning EMS to meet the requirements of the EO.

In 2002, an initial EMS was implemented at ASCC. A review of the EMS in 2011 determined that key

EMS work products and processes needed to be updated resulting in the publication of this EMS Manual.

1.3 Responsibilities

Various organizations and management roles at ASCC are responsible for effective implementation of the

EMS and are described below.

The Commanding Officer (CO) of ASCC is responsible for ensuring that this manual is implemented to the fullest extent practicable based on accomplishment of the station’s assigned missions and within the availability of funding and manpower resources provided by the federal government. Furthermore, the

CO, or designated representative, is responsible for approving or signing ASCC’s Environmental Policy

Statement. The CO or his designee is also responsible for chairing the annual management review meeting.

The Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) Office is responsible for directing the day-to-day management of ASCC’s EMS. The office is also responsible for identifying and managing applicable environmental compliance requirements on an ongoing basis and for providing environmental compliance and EMS conformance guidance to ASCC personnel.

1.4 Environmental Management System

The EMS is part of the overall ASCC management system and includes organizational structure, planning, responsibilities, practices, procedures and processes, and resource allocation for developing, implementing, achieving, reviewing, and maintaining environmental commitments.

The International Standards Organization (ISO) 14001 EMS model is used by ASCC. ISO 14001 focuses on a continual improvement-based methodology that prescribes a “Plan, Do, Check, Act” loop process.

The ISO 14001 EMS standard focuses implementation and sustainment in the following four areas:

Planning: Includes identifying environmental aspects and establishing goals [Plan Step].

Implementing: Includes training and operational controls [Do Step].

Developing and implementing an EMS is required at all federal installations.

In 2000, EO 13148, Greening the Government through Leadership in Environmental Management, required EMS implementation at federal facilities.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PAGE – 3

JULY 2013

Checking – Includes monitoring and corrective action [Check Step].

Reviewing – Includes progress reviews and implementation of follow-on actions to make needed changes to continually improve the EMS [Act Step].

Figure 1 shows the process steps used to implement and manage an ISO 14001-conformant EMS.

Figure 1. ISO 14001-based EMS Process used by ASCC

The EMS for ASCC is updated through the continual improvement cycle illustrated in Figure 1 above by working through the various process steps on an annual basis. Continual improvement cycle is a fundamental attribute of the EMS that allows the management system to adapt to the dynamic and changing nature of ASCC’s operations and mission requirements.

1.4.1 Current EMS Objectives and Targets

EMS Objectives and Targets provide the performance framework for ASCC’s EMS to continually add value to the organization.

The objectives drive the development of activities and projects to achieve the EMS’s goals.

Current Objectives and Targets of the EMS for ASCC are as follows:

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM PAGE – 4

JULY 2013

1. Objective: Conserve our natural resources.

Target: Develop a Natural Resource Management Plan (NRMP) with Massachusetts and US

Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) endorsement.

2. Objective: Reduce Hazardous Waste.

Target: Reduce generation of hazardous waste at ASCC by 5 percent by 2017.

3. Objective: Reduce Energy Usage.

Target: Construct Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design LEED Silver facilities;

make housing units more energy efficient; assess the feasibility of a 6-to-8 megawatt (MW) solar array installation.

4. Objective: Manage the Asbestos Program.

Targets: Control self-help and O&M projects; provide Annual Asbestos Awareness training.

1.4.2 EMS Integration within the Organization

For an EMS to be effective, its processes must be integrated into the organization’s decision making. The

EMS is integrated into the following ASCC management plans:

Master Plan for ASCC – Identifies future needs and requirements of the installation related to the use and/or designation of lands, facilities, and resources and establishes a guide for installation growth and development.

Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP) for ASCC – Provides for the management of storm water and water-borne pollution (USCG, 2012b).

Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan for ASCC – Provides for the management of oil spill prevention, preparedness, and response to prevent oil discharges to surface and sub-surface waters (USCG, 2011).

2.0 INSTALLATION INFORMATION

2.1 General Description

The 3,586-acre ASCC is located at the base of Cape Cod in Barnstable County, Massachusetts, approximately 50 miles southeast of Boston, Massachusetts, and east of Providence, Rhode Island (see

Figure 2).

ASCC lies completely within the approximately 21,600-acre MMR fence line and consists of 17 non-contiguous parcels of land ranging from approximately 2 to 861 acres in size. The majority of ASCC land is located within the southern portion of MMR, with the exception of the Communication Station

(COMMSTA) area.

Figure 2. Location of MMR and ASCC

In addition to the USCG, MMR is home to several military and non-military tenants, with Massachusetts

Army National Guard (MAARNG) using the largest amount of land (approximately 14,700 acres).

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM MANUAL PAGE – 6

JULY 2013

Other tenants include the US Air Force (USAF), Massachusetts Air National Guard (MAANG) 102 nd

Intelligence Wing (102 IW), US Department of Veterans Affairs, US Department of Agriculture, US

Department of Transportation, and several state, local, and private entities.

ASCC includes both federal and state-owned land. ASCC’s airfield is also known by the Federal Aviation

Administration (FAA) airport code KFMH (Cape Cod Coast Guard Air Station)

2.1.1 Installation History

ASCC is located on MMR, which has been used for military purposes since 1911. Since 1935, MMR has been used for training and maneuvers, military aircraft operations, maintenance, and support.

Prior to and during World War II, buildings, roads, utilities, and ranges were constructed at MMR, and the airfield was expanded. After the war, the USAF took over control of the airfield, some of the Army facilities, and site utilities to create Otis Air Force Base at the southern portion of the original Camp

Edwards. The Cold War led to further runway expansion, airfield improvements, and construction of family housing.

In 1968, the Department of Defense (DoD) allowed the USCG to use a portion of MMR for a new air station. On 29 August 1970, ASCC was officially established when Air Station Salem, Massachusetts, and Air Detachment Quonset Point, Rhode Island, were consolidated into one command called Air

Station Cape Cod.

The MAANG managed all aspects of the airfield from 1970 to 2005. In 2008, the USCG assumed all responsibilities for airfield operations including maintenance, runway lighting, tower operations, weather forecasting, navigational aid systems, and snow removal.

2.1.2 Military Mission

The USCG’s mission is to protect the public, the environment, and US economic interests – in the nation's ports and waterways, along the coast, on international waters, or in any maritime region – as required to support national security.

The USCG is a maritime, military, multi-mission service unique among the US military branches for having a maritime law enforcement mission (with jurisdiction in both domestic and international waters) and a federal regulatory agency mission as part of its mission set.

The Coast Guard operates under the US Department of Homeland Security (USDHS) during peacetime and can be transferred to the Department of the Navy by the President or Congress during times of war.

The USCG carries out three basic roles: maritime safety, security, and stewardship, which are further subdivided into 11 statutory missions that are further divided into homeland security and non-homeland security missions.

JULY 2013

Non-homeland security missions include marine safety, search and rescue (SAR), aids to navigation, living marine resources (i.e., fisheries law enforcement), marine environmental protection, and ice operations.

Homeland security missions include ports, waterways and coastal security, drug interdiction, migrant interdiction, defense readiness, and other maritime law enforcement.

The primary mission of ASCC is SAR, which involves the protection of life and property in the offshore areas covering a large territory that extends from the Canadian border to central New Jersey.

The ASCC’s mission statement is to:

“Protect life, property and the marine environment in service to the public and our country. We pledge to optimize the use of personnel, resources and technology in support of the Coast Guard's five fundamental roles: Maritime Safety, Maritime Security, Maritime Mobility, National Defense and Protection of Natural

Resources. We strive for excellence in serving New England military personnel with the finest in community service and quality of life support.”

3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

3.1.1 Environmental Policy

As defined in the ISO 14001 EMS standard, an organization’s environmental policy sets the overall intention and direction or its operational activities, related to its environmental performance and is formally endorsed by top management.

The ASCC Environmental Policy Statement, signed by the Commanding Officer, is inserted in the next page.

4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

4.1 General Requirements

ASCC has established, documented, implemented, maintained, and is continuing to improve an EMS in accordance with the requirements of ISO 14001, EOs 13423, 13514, and USCG Commandant

Instructions.

4.2 Environmental Policy

The ASCC Environmental Policy Statement is the cornerstone of the installation’s EMS and is endorsed by the CO. The policy defines the environmental vision of the installation and includes a commitment to continual environmental performance improvement, pollution prevention, and the ongoing requirement to meet relevant environmental regulations, and other requirements. The policy is reviewed annually by the

CO and EHS Director during Environmental Management reviews (and updated where necessary). The policy is also re-signed following a CO change of command.

This Environmental Policy Statement is communicated to personnel during EMS awareness training, which is typically incorporated into the initial indoctrination process when personnel are assigned to

ASCC. The policy is also available on the ASCC intranet and is made available to the public on ASCC’s public website.

4.3 Environmental Aspects

A critical element of a properly implemented EMS is understanding how an organization’s operations impact…
