Combining Sustainability & EMS
• EMS provides structure for the sustainability
program
• ISO 14001 framework is very generic and
easily applied
• PLAN, DO, CHECK, ACT – provides for
continual improvement
• Prioritizes environmental aspects and
impacts
• Measures progress towards goals
• Allows for review of goals

standard
% of facilities programmed to be renovated to the LEED certified
standard
Lagging: % of square footage of facilities in the inventory meeting
LEED platinum standard

1.2: To become the model sustainable military community of
the world by using sustainable principles throughout the life
cycle of all facilities and supporting infrastructure (FSI)
Initiative: To use LEED as the framework for sustainable design,
construction, operation and maintenance of Fort Bragg’s facilities. To
accomplish this, LEED rating systems will be applied to facilities as
follows:
• Base sustainable design and development in new
construction on a LEED Platinum standard. Target: Meet
minimum LEED Platinum standard for all new construction by
2020.
• Base sustainable design and development for existing
buildings on a LEED Certified standard. Target: Meet
minimum LEED Certified standard for 25% of the total square
footage of all existing structures by 2020.
