GEPC Charter
The purpose of the Green Engineering Program Committee
(GEPC) is to promote a holistic, systems approach to improved
energy efficiency, sustainability, renewable energy and ‘cradle-tocradle’ design. GEPC serves as the AIAA focal point for all “green”
aerospace-related programs and technologies, and works
synergistically with the appropriate technical committees to assure
that the AIAA membership is adequately informed about all aspects
of this critical aerospace activity.

“Supercritical Transformational Energy Production” – Roger Herdy looking to
submit or find a home for his paper
“I just have the session slots reserved. Right now, I only have ERA and the papers
that came in through the GE call. I have not heard from Transformational Flight yet,
and you are still thinking about one for AATT. I have one oral presentation on
Hybrid Electric from Armstrong proposed for GE. I don’t have any other information
yet.” – Chris

Aviation 2015 Report – Andy Gibson
Number of papers (submitted / accepted)
4 Technical Papers submitted, 2 accepted.
6 Oral Presentations Invited, 6 accepted and sessioned.
Number of sessions (regular and invited)
One; GEPC-01 Overview of NASA Advanced Air Vehicles Program.
Two accepted Papers passed off to other sessions.
"Selected Array of Technology and Systems Options for Ecologically Responsible Aviation“
moved to ATIO-07 Systems Engineering and Analysis.
"Landscape Analysis Framework for Low Carbon Energy" moved to ATIO-06 Fleet and Route Planning.
Duration and schedule of sessions
GEPC-01, Thursday June 25th, 2 - 5pm.
Highlights / topical areas of your sessions
Decided upon single technical session; focus to introduce the projects in the Advanced Air Vehicles Program.
Any other pertinent information
Not at this time; it seems that SciTech might be GEPC's focus, but P&E received good returns as well, which
could be because it's P&E, or because Valerie wanted to re-write the CfP. We decided not to re-write the CfP
for AVIATION specifically to see how it would compare to SciTech, and that question was answered.

Must Read--Important hotel information for P&E
Good morning,
We look forward to your participation in the Propulsion and Energy Forum next
month. We were recently informed that the hotel is sold out, other than the AIAA
block, so we encourage you to make your reservations this week or as soon as
possible to ensure you have a place to stay. We expect the AIAA hotel block to sell
out shortly. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
Pamela Bertelson

What is a Policy Position Paper?
• A policy position paper is the form in which a
policy issue is presented to Congress.
• It is a brief, 1-page paper summarizing a key
issue and what Congress should do to fix the
problem.
20
Existing Environment Position Statements
• February 2009
Aviation’s Role in Minimizing Environmental Impacts
• January 2010
Essential Capabilities for Operational Climate Change Monitoring
• May 2010
 Energy and the “Greening” of Aviation
• May 2010
 Understanding, Mitigating, and Adapting to Climate Change
• February 2011
A National Strategy is Required to Address Obstacles to
Sustainable Alternative Aviation Fuels
21
How to get a Policy Position Paper Developed
• AIAA Public Policy is picking a few (3-5) broad,
key policy issues to promote to Congress.
• The other issues will be referred to local Public
Policy representatives who will try to fix the
issues on the local level.
• The goal: Identify green engineering policy
issues both large-scale and local to promote to
AIAA Public Policy.
22
Potential Green Engineering Related Policy Issues
1. EPA and airplane emissions
2. Funding cuts for AFRL fuels lab that was
providing significant help for biofuel certification
activities
3. Your ideas

EPA Takes Step Toward Regulating Airplane Emissions
The New York Times (6/11, Mouawad, Davenport, Subscription Publication) reports that in “the latest” of President Obama’s “major initiatives to combat
global warming,” the EPA said yesterday that “it would take the first step toward regulating greenhouse gas emissions from airplanes.” The
Washington Post (6/11, Mooney) indicates, however, that “rather than moving ahead on its own, the agency plans to continue to work on with the
United Nations’ International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).” Christopher Grundler, who heads the EPA’s Office of Transportation and Air
Quality, “defended the international approach,” observing that “an international standard would cover far more aircraft than simply a domestic
standard, and would cover far more greenhouse gas reduction.”
The Huffington Post (6/10, Sheppard) reports that the EPA “did not announce actual regulations at this point,” but “rather...its intent to reach an
endangerment finding, which would trigger regulations under the Clean Air Act.” On its website, US News & World Report (6/11, Neuhauser) notes
that the EPA, under the current administration, “made a similar finding in 2009 that led to new emissions standards for motor vehicles, and has
pushed to harness the Clean Air Act to reduce carbon emissions from power plants.” US News added that “such moves have been vigorously
opposed and portrayed as federal overreach by industry and conservative lawmakers, but have been upheld in court.”
The AP (6/10, Lowy) notes that the ICAO “has been working for five years on developing global aircraft emissions standards for the first time. Final
agreement on those standards is expected in February of next year.” However, “a final US decision on adoption of international standards is likely to
be left to the next presidential administration,” as “EPA officials said the earliest the agency is likely to propose adoption of ICAO standards would be
in 2017.”
Bloomberg News (6/11, Snyder) says that “environmental groups welcomed the EPA action they have sought since 2007, though some cautioned
about the tie to the ICAO.” Vera Pardee, “a senior attorney at the Center for Biological Diversity,” said yesterday, “It’s an important first step, but too
little too late. ... EPA is punting responsibility.” In fact, “Pardee said the ICAO may delay significant reductions until 2030 or later.”
Reuters (6/10, Volcovici) reports that Paul Steele, senior vice president at the International Air Transport Association, said, “If you’re a big airline and
you’re flying to 100 countries a day, then complying with all those different regimes is an administrative nightmare.”
The Wall Street Journal (6/10, Ostrower, Harder, Subscription Publication) reports that Nancy Young, vice president for Environmental Affairs at
Airlines for America, a trade association representing U.S. airlines and air cargo carriers, similarly said, “Aviation is a global industry, making it
critical that aircraft emission standards continue to be agreed upon at the international level.”

• Process for identifying chair candidates solicits feedback from
stakeholder groups
 Board of Directors, Corporate Member Committee
• Not receiving enough suggestions to build a large pool of
candidates
• Suggestions we receive are usually limited to AIAA members,
volunteers from TAC structure
 Need to broaden the net to provide new ideas, fresh approaches
 Individuals outside of our community help us expand programmatically
and increase relevance
 Opportunity to engage potential individuals who should be AIAA
members but are not
