SECTION 3: GENERAL OEBGD GUIDANCE 6

SECTION 3: GENERAL OEBGD GUIDANCE

3.1. USE OF THIS VOLUME AND FGSS.

DoD LECs use this volume to conduct the comparative analysis of conservation required to develop each country-specific FGS. The comparative analysis considers HN environmental standards, international agreements, and the standards found in this volume, with the more protective standard being used to establish the FGS. The FGSs ensure consistent application of environmental standards for all installations operated by DoD Components within an HN.

Compliance with the standards of this volume is achieved by complying with the current FGSs, since the standards of this volume are reflected in the FGSs. In cases where updates or revisions to this volume have not yet been considered and incorporated into an FGS, installations must comply with the more protective standard, whether it is found in this volume or the FGS.

a. For DoD Components on DoD installations in foreign countries for which FGSs are not required, or have yet to be established, installations must comply with applicable international agreements, applicable HN environmental standards pursuant to Section 1-801 of E.O. 12088, and this volume. In cases of conflicting requirements, the DoD Components will normally comply with the standard that is more protective of human health and the environment.

b. DoD Components will consult with the DoD LEC or, if no DoD LEC is designated, with the applicable Combatant Commander on actions that could seriously affect mission, involve a substantial commitment of funds, or set a precedent.

3.2. CONSERVATION MANAGEMENT.

This volume contains standards for the management of historic and cultural resources, natural resources, and species at risk. These standards apply to all facilities, tenants, operations, and activities under DoD control on the installation.

3.3. EFFECTIVE DATES.

Standards identified in this manual are effective immediately upon publication. Installations and

DoD Components must plan, program, and budget in accordance with Section 6 of Enclosure 3 of DoDI 4715.05.

3.4. NONCOMPLIANCE TERMINOLOGY.

Terms such as “noncompliance,” “out of compliance,” “violation,” “exceedance,”

“nonconformity,” and “nonconformance” are used synonymously to describe the condition of failing to meet a standard or a specific limit or value within a standard in this manual.

SECTION 3: GENERAL OEBGD GUIDANCE 7
