LEED PILOT for NEIGHBORHOOD DESIGN
• LEED for neighborhood development is a rating
system that ingrates the principles of smart growth,
new urbanism and green building into the first
National standard for neighborhood design.
• Up to 120 projects across the United States will
be selected and named by the end of May 2007.
The pilot program will run for a period of 9-15
months, after which a detailed assessment of each
project occurs, and the lessons learnt are used
inform the development of a National framework
for LEED Neighborhood Design.
 The opportunity to demonstrate leadership in
the design of neighborhoods which encompass
smart growth, new urbanism and green building
design
 The ability to help shape the LEED for
Neighborhood Development rating system
 The recognition of being an early adopter
through case study and other promotional efforts
 The opportunity to be one of the first LEED
certified development projects for neighborhood
design in the United States

DECONSTRUCTION AND RECYCLING
• AHFH has recycled more than 80,000 tons of material at Schofield Barracks
• on-site rock crusher produces three types of material for structural fill
• AHFH recycles concrete, asphalt, metal and vegetation
• AHFH has preserved hundreds of trees. Arborists and
urban planners determined which trees to preserve.
Designers laid out sidewalks and aligned buildings
to avoid trees. Shrubs and plants not relocated were
mulched and reused.
• To date, AHFH has donated hundreds of appliances
(washers, dryers, ranges and ovens, refrigerators
and freezers) to the Nanakuli Housing Corporation,
Waimanalo Neighborhood Board, and Victory Ohana
• All military construction, renovation, and demolition
projects shall include contract performance requirements
for a 50% minimum diversion of construction and
demolition waste by weight, from landfill disposal

Army Metering Implementation Plan
The Office of the Deputy Undersecretary of Defense (Installations
and Environment) issued the Army Metering Implementation Plan
on 6 September 2006. The Energy Policy Act of 2005 requires all
federal facilities to be metered with advanced meters by 2012
where practicable. Based on OSD guidance, and in coordination
with U.S. Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville, an
implementation plan for the Army metering effort has been
developed. The Army plan assumes availability of $8 M per year in
POM 08-13. The plan lays out a methodology to determine costeffective metering and a process for prioritizing installations.
All new MILCON is metered IAW Energy Conservation UFC3-400-01
This Fall all AHFH homes will be modified with Advanced Metering
Infrastructure (AMI). AMI employs digital meters with “two-way”
communications capability enabling the utility or billing service to
not only receive data from the meters, but also to transmit requests
and commands to the meter and devices connected to the meter
(appliance sensors, home displays, etc.).
HB266 Some Ideas
Natural carbon sequestration.
Forested lands capture carbon dioxide (CO2). Utility companies
may need to offset their CO2 emissions. An installation could
quantify its forested areas on base and sell the associatedCO2
sequestration credits to a utility. As an example of the potential
value, greenhouse gas storage in forests can be as high $2,200
per hectare.
Habitat banking.
Habitat for endangered and threatened species extends beyond
the fence line. Quantifying its value allows installations to
purchase or trade credits from other habitat banks in the same
region. This could increase training capacity by reducing on-post
endangered species restrictions. It would also allow regulators to
manage species and habitats across regions.
Ecosystem markets can
increase the value of land
in a natural state, making
open space or natural
habitat management
economically competitive
with land development.
They also can help
control sprawl, potentially
reducing encroachment.
Natural filtration.
Wetlands act as a natural filtration system. Installations could
identify their ecosystem service value and use filtration credits or
trade them for another environmental service needed to comply
with requirements.
Pollutant cap and trade.
Regulatory bodies set overall caps on pollutants such as SO2
and allocate pollutant baseline quantities to the producers.
Producers could reduce their own emissions and sell the resulting
credits, or they could purchase credits from others to avoid
treatment or noncompliance costs.

Hawaii State Sustainability Task Force
•
The Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Task Force was established in 2005 to address
and guide Hawaii’s long-term sustainable future. The process seeks input from
businesses, government, and private citizens—from our keiki to our kupuna.
In 2005, the Hawaii State Legislature, through Act 8 (SB1592 CD1):
•
Created the Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Task Force to review the Hawaii State
Plan and the state’s planning process, and
•
Required the Office of the Auditor to prepare a Hawaii 2050 Sustainability Plan.
The Task Force consists of 25 members appointed by the Governor; Speaker of
the House; Senate President; and Mayors of the counties of Hawaii, Kauai, Maui,
and Honolulu; and the President of the University of Hawaii. The Director of the
State Office of Planning and the Auditor serve as members of the Task Force.
USAG-HI Participating with the TF
and 2007 legislation will add military membership to the TF membership
What does the military get from ACUB?
Protected boundaries
•
•
•
Reduces potential
conflict over dust and noise
Protects the safety of
civilians
Provides security
Enhancement of resource
protection
• Protects installations from
being only remaining refuge
for biodiversity
• Enables Army to meet
endangered species
requirements of promoting
recovery
• Protects species from
endangerment
What is an Army Compatible Use Buffer
(ACUB)
•
Involves an agreement between an Army installation and another party
(NGO, state or local government) that enables the other party to
acquire land or interest in land from a willing private land owner. Army
does not own the land.
•
Army gets reduced encroachment and greater training flexibility.
Partner get enhanced mission capability (T&E, Hunting, Agricultural)
•
Costs are typically shared as multiple purposes are served (buffering
mission, endangered species, hunting etc).
•
Often involves stakeholder partnerships for decision making.
•
