SPAIN – 1 Overview
FGS Spain 6 November 2002 1-1
1. CONCEPT & BACKGROUND
These standards were developed by comparing and adopting the more protective requirements of the U.S. DoD Overseas Environmental Baseline Guidance Document (OEBGD) and Spanish national, regional and local environmental laws and regulations, and applicable international agreements. These standards are the single definitive source of environmental compliance criteria applicable to DoD Components at installations in Spain. These are minimum requirements – component policy may impose additional requirements.
2. SCOPE
This document provides environmental standards for actions for DoD Components at installations in Spain. An installation is a base, camp, post, station, yard, center, or activity under the operational control of the Secretary of a Military Department or the Secretary of Defense.
Owned, leased, and joint use facilities that are operated or maintained by DoD Components must comply with these standards when, and to the extent that, the component controls the operation or maintenance activity (ies). At leased facilities operated and maintained by others, DoD Components may opt to require compliance with these standards by the lessor or contractor. In any case lessors and contractors must fully comply with Spanish legal requirements.
This document does not apply to:
1. Installations that do not have more than de minimis potential to affect the natural environment (e.g., offices whose operations are primarily administrative, including defense attaché offices, security assistance offices, foreign buying offices and other similar organizations), or activities which DoD Components exercise control over only on a temporary or intermittent basis;
2. Operations of U.S. military vessels or the operations of U.S. military aircraft, or off-installation operational and training deployments. Off-installation operational deployments include cases of hostilities, contingency operations in hazardous areas, and when United States forces are operating as part of a multi-national force not under full control of the United States. Such excepted operations and deployments shall be conducted in accordance with applicable international agreements, other DoD Directives and Instructions, and environmental annexes incorporated into operation plans or operation orders. However, this document does apply to support functions for U.S. military vessels and U.S. military aircraft provided by the DoD Components, including management or disposal of off-loaded waste or material;
3. Facilities and activities associated with the Naval Nuclear Propulsion Program, which are covered under E.O. 12344 and conducted pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 7158;
FGS Spain 6 November 2002 1-2
4. The determination or conduct of remediation to correct environmental problems caused by DoD's past activities, conducted in accordance with DoDI 4715.8 (Environmental Remediation Overseas); and,
5. Environmental analyses conducted under E.O. 12114.
This document does not create any rights or obligations enforceable against the United States, DoD, or any of its components, nor does it create any standard of care or practice for individuals.
Although the document references other DoD directives and instructions, it is intended only to coordinate the requirements of those directives as required. This document does not change other DoD or service directives or alter DoD or service policies.
3. RESPONSIBILITIES
It is DoD policy under the DoDI 4715.5 (Management of Environmental Compliance at Overseas Installations) that:
HQ USEUCOM will:
1. Coordinate and approve implementation of the FGS by the Environmental Executive Agent.
2. Resolve any disputes between other DoD Components and the Environmental Executive Agent regarding the FGS.
The DoD Environmental Executive Agent for Spain, CINCUSNAVEUR, will:
1. Develop and maintain the FGS in accordance with DoDI 4715.5.
2. Distribute the FGS and any subsequent amendments or guidance to the service components and DoD agencies with installations or facilities in Spain. Forward a copy of revised FGS via USEUCOM to the Military Departments and DUSD(ES) for information.
3. Revalidate and update the FGS at least every two years.
4. Consult with Host Nation authorities on environmental issues, as required, to maintain effective cooperation on environmental matters.
5. Resolve requests for waivers from the DoD Components.
6. Keep DoD Components informed of current environmental developments and trends.
DoD Components will:
1. Ensure that actions by DoD Components at installations in Spain, as well as planning, budgeting, programming, and execution, comply with these standards.
FGS Spain 6 November 2002 1-3
2. Designate Component Commanders or other officials who are authorized to apply for waivers or initiate appeals.
3. Attain compliance with the FGS using pollution prevention as the preferred means where economically advantageous and consistent with mission requirements.
4. WAIVERS
If compliance with the FGS at particular installations or facilities would seriously impair operations, adversely affect relations with Spanish authorities, or require substantial expenditure of funds at an installation that has been identified for closure or at an installation that has been identified for a realignment that would remove the requirement, a DoD Component may ask the Environmental Executive Agent to waive the particular standard. Waivers are not required if compliance projects have been programmed by the service components but remain unfunded.
See DoDI 4715.5 (Management of Environmental Compliance at Overseas Installations) and EUCOM Directive 80-1 (Environmental Security) for complete waiver procedures.
The installation commander will forward waiver requests to the Environmental Executive Agent via the Component chain of command. Waiver requests should specify, at a minimum:
1. The particular standard for which a waiver is requested;
2. The extent of the relief requested and the period that the waiver will be in effect;
3. The anticipated impact of the waiver, if any, on human health and the environment or relations with Spain authorities over the period of the waiver; and,
4. The justification for the waiver and if a complete waiver of the standard is requested, why a partial and/or temporary deviation would not be sufficient.
The Environmental Executive Agent will consult with the other DoD Components and USEUCOM and grant or deny the request for waiver in whole, in part, or conditionally. Waivers may require periodic reviews and reporting.
In the event that the Environmental Executive Agent denies a waiver, the DoD Component may appeal to HQ USEUCOM for reconsideration.
5. PERMITS & REPORTING
The Spanish Base Commander is the formal representative of the installation pursuant to bilateral agreement and serves as the liaison with national authorities and the contact with local authorities and local external military and civil entities. Therefore, any formal interaction or interaction of common (U.S. and Spanish) interest with Spanish authorities will be conducted under the cognizance, approval, or involvement of the Spanish Base Commander. DoD Components will assist the Spanish Base Commander with applying for permits and providing
FGS Spain 6 November 2002 1-4 reports and records or otherwise helping him with his liaison duties. DoD Components shall not obtain permits directly from the Host Nation. Matters for which the Spanish Base Commander may be expected to require assistance are listed in the Administrative Items at the end of each chapter.
If the Spanish Base Commander obtains a permit on behalf of a DoD Component and the permit requires a more protective standard than prescribed in the FGS, the standard in the permit shall be the compliance standard. However, if a permit allows a less protective standard, then the FGS will be the compliance standard unless a waiver is obtained.
If the installation at issue does not fall under the responsibility of a Spanish Base Commander, the DoD installation may request clarification from the Environmental Executive Agent via the chain of command. The Environmental Executive Agent may pursue having higher Spanish military headquarters resolve representational responsibility.
Contractors performing work for DoD must comply with all Spanish laws and regulations including obtaining all necessary licenses and permits.
6. ACCESS TO INSTALLATIONS & INFORMATION BY SPANISH AUTHORITIES
Inspections and non-routine requests for information by Spanish authorities shall be coordinated with the Spanish Base Commander and reported to the Environmental Executive Agent via the Component chain-of-command. To the maximum extent possible, U.S. military personnel shall lead the review of DoD Component activities by Spanish authorities during the inspection.
7. LEGAL PROTECTIONS FOR U.S. FORCES EMPLOYEES
Legal protections afforded DoD personnel investigated or charged by a Host Nation with alleged offenses arising out of any act or omission done in the performance of official duty vary depending upon the status of the individual under the NATO Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA) and other applicable international agreements. In general, there is a greater ability for the U.S. to assert a primary right to exercise criminal jurisdiction over a member of the force as opposed to a member of the civilian component. There is no such right with respect to local national employees. Accordingly, due consideration should be given to a military service member assuming responsibility, in coordination with the Spanish BaseCommander, for issues of alleged U.S. noncompliance raised by Host Nation authorities.
Installations, activities, and personnel should immediately contact their servicing legal office when faced with possible or actual Host Nation enforcement actions in order to maximize protections afforded to DoD personnel under the NATO SOFA, bilateral agreements, and U.S.
and DoD regulations, and to secure legal representation for the subjects of the enforcement action (including local national employees). Installations will report possible or actual Spanish enforcement actions to the Environmental Executive Agent via their chain-of-command.
FGS Spain 6 November 2002 1-5
If the authorities seek to question a DoD employee regarding his or her official duties, a representative from installation legal should accompany the employee. The installation legal representative should clarify with the authorities whether the employee is questioned as a suspect or a witness, and the employee advised accordingly. It may not be readily apparent whether the Host Nation legal proceeding is criminal or administrative in nature. This point should be clarified as soon as possible since different procedures may apply depending on the answer.
Installations will report interview by Spanish authorities to the Environmental Executive Agent via their chain-of-command.
1.7.1 COUNSEL FEES & RELATED ASSISTANCE
AR 27-50/SECNAVINST 5820.4G (Status of Forces Policies, Procedures, and Information) establishes criteria and assigns responsibility for the provision of counsel and bail, the payment of court costs, and other necessary and reasonable expenses incident to representation in foreign criminal and civil proceedings. It includes appellate proceedings before foreign courts and foreign administrative agencies that involve military and civilian personnel (including local nationals). The payment of fines is not authorized by the reference. Approval authorities and additional procedures for requests for counsel fees and related assistance are listed in USAREUR Regulation 550-50/USAFE Instruction 51-706 (Exercise of Foreign Criminal Jurisdiction Over United States Personnel). Approval authority is assigned according to geographic area rather than chain of command.
1.7.2 CRIMINAL JURISDICTION
DoD policy is to maximize U.S. criminal jurisdiction to the extent permitted by applicable agreements. EUCOM Directive 45-3 and service instructions define policy, responsibilities, and procedures for the exercise of U.S. jurisdiction. Certain countries have tri-service regulations that address country specific policy, responsibilities and procedures. The primary right to exercise jurisdiction under the NATO SOFA may be more difficult for DoD to claim in official duty cases involving civilian employees because the extraterritorial application of U.S. law to civilians is limited. U.S. jurisdiction is not available for local national employees. In view of these limitations, a military member should be identified, where possible, as the responsible DoD party in an enforcement action. If an assertion of the primary right to exercise jurisdiction is not appropriate or is denied in a case, consideration should be given to requesting a waiver of Host Hation jurisdiction.
1.7.3 DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE (DOJ) INVOLVEMENT
The 28 C.F.R. Section 50.15 provides procedures for representation of Federal employees by DOJ attorneys. A Federal employee may be provided representation in civil and criminal proceedings in which he or she is sued, subpoenaed, or charged in his individual capacity, where the actions of the employee reasonably appear to have been performed within the scope of the employee's employment and representation is in the interest of the U.S. In civil/administrative cases, DOJ may request substitution of the United States for the employee. The installation legal representative should coordinate requests for DOJ representation through Component command channels and the Environmental Executive Agent.

SPAIN - 3 Drinking Water
FGS Spain July 2008 3-1
SCOPE & DEFINITIONS
This chapter contains criteria for providing potable water.
Action Level – The concentration of a substance in water that establishes appropriate treatment for a water system.
Appropriate DoD Medical Authority – The medical professional designated by the in-theater component commander to be responsible for resolving medical issues necessary to provide safe drinking water at the Component’s installations.
Community Water System (CWS) – A public water system having at least 15 service connections used by year-round residents, or which regularly serves at least 25 year-round residents.
Competent Sanitary Authority –The competent regional sanitary administration or other competent regional bodies.
Concentration/Time (CT) – The product of residual disinfectant concentration, C, in mg/L determined before or at the first customer, and the corresponding disinfectant contact time, T, in minutes. CT values appear in Tables 3.11 through 3.24.
Conventional Treatment – Water treatment including chemical coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, and filtration.
Diatomaceous Earth Filtration – A water treatment process of passing water through a precoat of diatomaceous earth deposited on a support membrane while additional diatomaceous earth is continuously added to the feed water to maintain the permeability of the precoat, resulting in substantial particulate removal from the water.
Direct Filtration – Water treatment including chemical coagulation, possibly flocculation, and filtration, but not sedimentation.
Disinfectant – Any oxidant (including, but not limited to, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, chloramines, and ozone) intended to kill or inactivate pathogenic microorganisms in water.
DoD-Produced Water – Any water used for drinking water where the raw water is extracted by DoD. If DoD blends raw water with purchased water, the drinking water is considered DoD-produced water. Any drinking water that does not meet the definition of purchased water must be considered DoD-produced water.
DoD Water System – A public water system or non-public water system.
Emergency Assessment – An evaluation of the susceptibility of the water source, treatment, storage, and distribution system(s) to disruption of service from natural disasters, accidents, and sabotage.
FGS Spain July 2008 3-2
First Draw Sample – A 1-liter sample of tap water that has been standing in plumbing at least 6 hours and is collected without flushing the tap.
Groundwater Under the Direct Influence of Surface Water (GWUDISW) – Any water below the surface of the ground with significant occurrence of insects or other microorganisms, algae, or large diameter pathogens such as Giardia lamblia; or significant and relatively rapid shifts in water characteristics (such as turbidity, temperature, conductivity, or pH) which closely correlate to climatological or surface water conditions.
Lead-Free – A maximum lead content of 0.2% for solder and flux, and 8.0% for pipes and fittings.
Lead Service Line – A service line made of lead that connects the water main to the building inlet, and any lead pigtail, gooseneck, or other fitting which is connected to such line.
Local National – An employee hired under Spanish employment conditions.
Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) – The maximum permissible level of a contaminant in water that is delivered to the free-flowing outlet of the ultimate user of a public water system except for turbidity for which the maximum permissible level is measured after filtration.
Contaminants added to the water under circumstances controlled by the user (except those resulting from the corrosion of piping and plumbing caused by water quality) are excluded.
Non-Public Water System (NPWS) – A system that does not meet the definition of a public water system (for example, a well serving a building with less than 25 people).
Point-of-Entry (POE) Treatment Device – A treatment device applied to the drinking water entering a facility to reduce contaminants in drinking water throughout the facility.
Point-of-Use (POU) Treatment Device – A treatment device applied to a tap to reduce contaminants in drinking water at that tap.
Potable Water – Water that has been examined and treated to meet the standards in this chapter, and has been approved as potable by the appropriate DoD medical authority. It includes water used for drinking, cooking, food preparation, and other domestic uses, regardless of its origin or the manner in which it is distributed to the consumer.
Public Water System (PWS) – A system for providing piped water to the public for human consumption, if such system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves at least 25 year round residents. This term includes both "community water systems" which serve year-round residents and "non-community systems" along with any collection, treatment, storage, and distribution facilities under control of the operator of such systems, and any collection or pretreatment storage facilities not under such control that are used primarily in connection with such systems. A non-community system is used by intermittent users or travelers and is sub-classified into a non-transient, non-community or NTNC system and a transient, non-community
FGS Spain July 2008 3-3 or TNC system. A NTNC system could be a school or factory with its own water supply where the same people drink the water throughout the year, but not 24-hours a day. A TNC system example is a motel with its own well.
Purchased Water – Any drinking water acquired from an entity authorized by the competent local authorities to produce and distribute drinking water. Note: All facilities (including leased facilities) should ensure that their water supplier is authorized by the competent local authorities.
River Basin Authority – The institution in charge of the management of a river and its…
