1 - 8 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 2. Energy and Water Program Planning 1. Introduction . This chapter establishes planning requirements for the FAA Energy and Water Management Program . Program plannin g is an important step to ensuring com pliance with Federal legislation, EOs, and DOT policy . LOBs and SOs are responsible for achieving annual energy and water requirements, developing EMP s, and conducting budget planning .
2. Energy and Water Reductions . F AA energy and water reduction requirement s ar e based on mandates established by Federal legislation, EOs , and DOT policy . The primary program drivers are the energy and water requirements summarized below . Specific requirement s and associated FAA policy and roles and responsi bilities are discussed in the appropriate chapters of this Order .
a. Energy Intensity . FAA must reduce building energy intensity in goal subject buildings by 25 percent through the end of FY 2025 (i.e., 2.5 percent per year) , relative to a FY 2015 baseline ( EO 13693 §3(a)(i) ) . Annual e nergy intensity reductions , relative to a FY 2015 baseline, must be achieved in accordance with the percentage s specified in Table 2 - 1 . Each LOB and SO responsible for the O&M of buildings (FAA - owned bui ldings or leased buildings for which FAA pays the utility bill separately from the lease payment) is responsible for achieving the annual energy intensity reductions specified in T able 2 - 1 , and working with AEE to cla rify and refine the FY 2015 baseline in accordance with DOE guidance, as necessary.
Table 2 - 1 . Annual Energy Intensity Reduction Requirements F iscal Y ear % Reduction 2016 2.5 2017 5 2018 7.5 2019 10 2020 12.5 2021 15 2022 17.5 2023 20 2 024 22.5 2025 25 b. Greenh ouse Gas ( GHG ) Emissions . FAA must meet the FY 2025 GHG emission s reduction requirement s established by DOT , relative to a FY 2008 baseline ( EO 13 693 §2 ) . Reducing energy intensity in buildings and increasing use of renewable en ergy ( both of which are covered in this Order) will help FAA meet this requirement . AEE is responsible for coordinating the development of the GHG reduction requirements across FAA LOB s and SO s , and with DOT . In June 2015 , DOT established the Scope 1 & 2 GHG reduction requirement as 35 percent reduction by FY 2 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C 2025 , relative to a FY 2008 baseline , and the Scope 3 GHG emissions reduction requirement as 35 percent by FY 2025 , relative to a FY 2008 baseline . FAA must also reduce fugitive emissions from build ings and equipment by at least 50 percent by FY 2020; and reduce emissions from industrial processes by at least 50 percent by FY 2020 (DOT Order 4352).
c. Potable Water Intensity . FAA must reduce potable water intensity 36 percent by FY 2025 (i.e., 2 perce nt per year) , relative to a FY 2007 baseline ( EO 13693 §3(f)(i) ) . I n order to be considered on track with this requirement, annual potable water intensity reductions, relative to a FY 200 7 baseline, must be achieved in accordance with the percentages spec ified in Table 2 - 2 . FAA must also seek to identify, promote , and implement water reuse strategies that reduce potable water consumption . Each LOB and SO responsible for the O&M of facilities (FAA - owned facilities or leased facilities for which FAA pays t he utility bill separately from the lease payment ) is responsible for achieving the annual potable water intensity reductions specified in Table 2 - 2, and working with AEE to clarify and refine the baseline in accordance with DOE guidance, as necessary.

Industrial , Landscaping, and Agricultural (ILA) Water . FAA must reduce ILA water consumption by 30 percent (i.e., 2 percent per year) by FY 2025 , relative to a FY 2010 baseline ( EO 13693 §3(f)(iii) ) . In order to be consi dered on track with this requirement, annual ILA water consumption reductions, relative to a FY 2010 baseline, must be achieved in accordance with the percentages specified in Table 2 - 3 . Each LOB and SO responsible for the O&M of facilities (FAA - owned facilities or leased facilities for which FAA p ays the utility bill separately from the lease payment ) will establish, validate , and maintain its ILA water consumption baseline ; and is responsible for achieving the annual ILA water consumption reductio ns specified in Table 2 - 3 . To eliminate overlap an d preclude the need to change FY 2007 potable water use baselines, LOBs/SOs that included ILA water consumption in their 2007 potable water baseline should continue to measure and track progress against the overall water intensity measure (EO 13693 Impleme nting Instructions Sec.
2 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C III(B) citing Federal Agency Implementation of Water Efficiency and Management Provisions of EO 13514 Sec. 4.3). AEE and LOB and SO energy managers will work together to clarify and refine the baseline in accordance with DOE guidan ce, as necessary .

Annual E nvironmental M anagement P rogram s (EMP ) . In accordance with EMS procedures, AEE will develop and annually update the higher - tier energy an d water EMPs . LOBs and SOs will develop and annually upd ate energy and water EMPs for their respective organizations . Th e programs will detail how each organization’s portion of FAA’s overall energy and water management requirement s will be met . The programs should include and address the following points: a. M anagement and program strategies and timelines for achieving the stated objectives and targets; b. Organizational roles and responsibili ties for program implementation; c. Methods to evaluate progress (progress indicators), consistent with the overall program metrics establishe d by AEE; d. Facilities that will be audited; e. Energy and water conservation measures th at will be implemented; and f. Planned outreach campaigns/themes and activities planned for the year.
2 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C 4. Budget Planning . AEE , LOB and SO energy manag ers, p rogram office project managers, and energy POCs will develop and submit budget requests for their respective organizations , consistent with processes established by DOT and FAA . In support of the National Energy Conservation Policy Act (NECPA) §8255, LOB s and SOs will identify funds requested for compliance with this Order, and all applicable legal and regulatory requirements, and submit to Financial Services (ABA) as requested to support the annual budget process . This identification of funds will be do ne in accordance with Office of Management and Budget ( OMB ) and DOT guidance . Additionally, LOB and SO budgets for proposed construction of Federal facilities are required to comply with EO 13693 and the EO 13693 Implementing Instructions to ensure adhere nce to Federal sustainable green building requirements .
2 - 4 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 3. Energy and Water Conservation and Efficiency Projects 1. Introduction . This chapter establishes requirements for identify ing and implementing energy and water efficiency and conservation projects a t FAA facilities . The primary method for identifying and assessing these projects is through facility evaluations, which are to be completed in accordance with Federal requirements . All projects, including those being pursued for reasons other than impro ving energy and water performance, should support the Agency’s overarching program goals identified within this Order . LOBs and SOs should implement these projects using direct appropriations, as well as alternative funding methods to mee t energy and wate r requirement s.
2. Facility Energy and Water Consumption Baseline . F acility managers or local energy managers must e stablish energy and water baselines for each of their facilities to assist in identifying and prioritizing projects during the planning proce ss and evaluating the impact of implemented projects . To meet FAA energy, water, and facility requirement s, LOBs and SOs must appropriately baseline energy and water usage , and identify and plan projects that align with the requirement s set forth in this Order.
3. Energy - Efficient Building Equipment . Any FAA large cap ital energy or water investment in an existing building that is not a major renovation but involves replacement of installed equipment ( e.g., heating and cooling systems), or involves renovatio n, rehabilitation, expansion, or remodeling of existing space, must employ the most energy - and wat er - efficient designs, systems, equipm ent, and controls that are life cycle cost - effective (EISA §434 ( a ) , amending 42 USC 8253 (f) ) .
4. Covered Facilities and En ergy and Water Evaluations . FAA will use energy and water evaluations to help identify potential projects . FAA must conduct energy and water evaluations of facilities that meet DOE’s most recent criteria for “covered facilities , ” as required by EISA or o ther prevailing legislation . Covered facilities include those that constitute at least 75 percent of an agency’s facility energy use (EISA §432 , amending 42 USC §8253 (f)(3) ) . For the purposes of defining FAA ’s covered facilities, LOBs and SOs that are re sponsible for facilities (e.g., ANG - E , AMC, ATO , AVS, and AFN ) must each identify facilities in their organization that account for 75 percent of their energy use and conduct evaluations of those facilities . Evaluations must be conducted by qualified pers onnel and include specific activities in accordance with DOE guidance.
a. Evaluation Details. FAA requires LOBs and SOs responsible for facilities to conduct energy and water evaluations of approximately 25 percent of their covered facilities annually in a manner that ensures an evaluation of each facility is performed every four years. Evaluations must be completed consistent with the requirements of EISA §43 2(f)(3), which includes identifying and assessing recommissioning measures (or, if the facility has never been commissioned, retro - commissioning m easures) for each facility (EISA §432, amending 42 USC §8253(f)(3)). These evaluations enable effective project planning by identifying opportunities to improve energy and water performance through retrofits, O&M activities, and/or outreach/training to bu ilding occupants. Facility evaluations may be accomplished using a variety of mechanisms, such as, but not limited to: (1) In conjunction with environmental assessments and other regularly scheduled plant or saf ety inspections, if conducted by qualified FAA personnel or contractors; 3 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C (2) Independently by qualified FAA personnel or contractors; (3) Through an e nergy s avings p erformance c ontract (ESPC) or a u tility e nergy s ervice c ontract (UESC); or (4) Through participatio n in utility energy efficiency programs.
b. Energy and Water Conservation Measure Implementation. Following the evaluation, each energy manager may implement any identified energy or water conservation measure that is life cycle cost - effective (EISA §432, a mending 42 USC §8253(f)( 4)( A )). If a life cycle cost - effective energy conservation measure (ECM) has a payback period of less than 10 years, it must be implemented ( DOT Order 4353, 42 USC 8253(b)). In accordance with EISA requirements, energy managers mu st ensure the following for each implemented measure: (1) Equipment, including building and equipment controls, is fully commissioned at acceptance to be operating at design specifications ; (2) A plan for appropriate O&M and repair of the equipment is in place a t acceptance and is followed ; (3) Equipment and system performance is measured during its entire life to ensure proper O&M and repair ; and (4) Energy and water savings are measured and verified.
c. Compliance Tracking System (CTS). Federal agencies are required t o use DOE’s EISA 432 CTS to track and report EISA 432 compliance. LOB and SO energy managers must document their covered facilities in CTS, and ensure that these records are kept up - to - date. Updates should include, but are not be limited to: (1) The annual footprint, including energy consumption and gross square footage; (2) Completion of energy and water evaluations; (3) Implementation of identified energy and water conservation measures; and (4) Follow - up on implemented measures (EISA §432 , amending 42 USC §8253(f) (7)( A )).
5. Historic Properties . When a project could affect a historic property (i.e., a building , structure, object or site included in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places) , FAA has responsibilities under Section 106 of the National H istoric Preservation Act (NHPA) to consider the effect of its actions on those historic resources (NHPA §106 ( 54 USC 306108 ). FAA review follows Regulations implementing Section 106 of the NHPA define “ effect” as “alteration to the characteristics of a historic property qualifying it for inclusion in or eligibility for the National Register.” 36 C.F.R. 800.16 (i).
3 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C the process, as outlin ed in the implementing regulations at 36 CFR Part 800, and described in the Section 10 6 Handbook: How to Assess the Effects of FAA Actions on Historic Properties under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (June 2015), FAA Order 1050.1, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures , and the 1050.1F Desk Reference (July 2015 ) . Because it is not always obvious whether a property meets the National Register criteria, the first step in this process is to initiate consultation with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) and/or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO) who can help to identify historic properties as well as other individuals or organizations who may have an interest in the affected property . In addition, FAA must ensure that any activity affecting a Fed erally - owned historic property is carried out in ac cordance with Section 110 of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306101) which requires Federal agencies to manage and maintain these properties in a way that considers the preservation of their historic, archeological, architectural and cultural values, and should utili ze best practices and technologies in retrofitting to promote long - term viability of the buildings ( EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(D)(3) ). The Federal Preservation Officer in AEE - 400 can provide additional guidance on this process.
6. Project Scopi ng and Combining Energy and Water Conservation Measures into Projects .
FAA LOBs and SOs may combine multiple energy and water conservation measures into one project at one or more facilities, as appropriate, to maximize overall project energy and water ef ficiency and economic savings . When bundling ECMs (e.g., in a n ESPC or UESC ), the entire bundle must be life - cycle cost - effective .
a. Life Cycle Cost Analysis ( LCCA ) . The application of ECMs to existing Federal buildings must be made using life cycle cos t methods and procedures ( Federal Energy Management Improvement Act of 1988 , (42 USC 8254) ) . LCCA must be conducted using the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Life Cycle Costing Manual for Federal Energy Management Program ( FEMP ) . FA A should consider energy cost savings and benefits while evaluating project options and opportunities . Potential saving s categories to consider when conducting LCCA includ e , but are not limited to: (1) Reduced e nergy (in Btu) usage ; (2) Reduced water (in thousa nds of gallons [ kgal ] ) usage ; (3) Avoided utility demand charges ; and (4) Reduced O&M activities .
b. Payback Period and Bundling . Most facilities have the potential for energy and water conservation measures . Some of these opportunities may have payback periods of fewer than two years (e.g., lighting upgrades), while larger projects (e.g., chiller replacements) may have paybac k periods well over 10 years . If a life cycle cost - effective ECMs in a covered facility has a payback of less than 10 years, it must be im plemented ( DOT Order 4353, 42 USC 8253(b) ) .
LOB and SO energy managers or l ocal e nergy managers may bundle energy and water conservation measures of varying paybacks into one project . More ECMs and greater facility improvements can be included when ECMs with longer term payback periods are bundled with and offset by ECMs with 3 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C shorter payoff terms. Energy managers should recognize that combining multiple measures into one project will minimize the disturbance time at the facility , may result in economies of scale , and may reduce contract and administrative burdens .
7. Financing Options . Projects can be financed through direct appropriations, alternative financing , or a combination of the two types .
a. Budget Justification . Funding and other resource requir ements associated with the implementation of this Order must be justified and requested in accordance with existing FAA budgetary and fiscal processes .
b. Alternative Financing . LOB and SO energy managers may pursue the following alternative funding methods to meet energy and water requirements wherever such methods provide an appropriate financing mechanism. FAA must set annual targets for ESPC and UESC contracts to be implemented in FY 2017 and annually thereafter (EO 13693 §3(k)(iii)).
(1) An ESPC is a cont racting vehicle that allows agencies to accomplish energy projects for their facilities with little or no upfront capital costs . Under an ESPC, a contractor finances the up - front cost of the project , guarantees that the project improvements will generate enough energy and water cost savings to pay for the project over the contract period , and is paid back from the resultant energy and water savings over the contract period.
ESPC ENABLE offers the same benefits as a conventional ESPC, but provides a standa rdized streamlined process for small, Federal facilities (less than approximately 200,000 gsf) to install targeted ECMs in six months or less. The program currently allows sites an opportunity to implement specific ECMs including lighting, water, simple h eating, ventilation, and air conditioning ( HVAC ) controls, HVAC system replacement, and solar photovoltaic . Pricing is pre - negotiated, which allows for a faster selection process so that a project can be designed and installed quickly.
(2) Under a UESC, an a gency contracts with a local servicing utility for technical services and/or upfront project financing f or energy efficiency, water conservation, and renewable energy investments . The utility is repaid over the contract term from the cost savings generate d by the energy and water efficiency measures . B ecause the UESC provides service through the local utility, different contracting regulations apply . Unlike an ESPC, these contracts are not required to include performance guarantees; however, it is highly recommended that performance guarantees or assurances of the savings to be generated by improvements be incorporated into these contracts , which cover the full cost of the Federal investment for the improvements, to reduce Agency risk.
Performance assura nces do not guarantee energy savings; however, they provide assurance that equipment installed will perform a s expected. A UESC should include measurement and verification of savings through equipment commissioning, recommissioning or retro - commissioning.
Competition or alternatives analysis should be considered as part of the selection process prior t o entering into a UESC (DOT Order 4353).
(3) A power purchase agreement (PPA) enables an agency to fund on - site renewable energy projects with no up - front capi tal costs incurred . With a PPA, a developer install s a renewable energy system on a gency property under an agreement that the agency will purchase the power generated by 3 - 4 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C the system . The a gency pays for the system through these power payments over the lif e of the contract . After installation, the developer owns, operates, and maintains the system for the life of the contract.
c. Incentive Programs . Whenever possible, FAA should participate in incentive programs offered by states, utilities, or other organi zations ( e.g., regional energy and water efficiency programs) .
These incentive programs include rebates or grants given for installing energy - or water - saving equipment or systems . FAA may retain the full amount of energy and water incentives obtained fr om utility programs (EISA §516, amending 42 USC §8256(c)). Local energy managers, facility managers, and energy coordinators are responsible for tracking these programs and identifying FAA pro jects that may qualify for incentives . In cases where FAA does not directly receive the incentive, the service provider may receive it, resulting in reduced cost to FAA .
d. Tax Credits . FAA should work with vendors and contractors to capitalize on tax incentives , where appropriate . The applicability of the tax credi ts to specific FAA projects will require analysis by tax law experts .
8. Retained Savings . Cost savings generated by alternative financin g (including incentives) should be reinvested back into the FAA Energy and Water Management Program as allowed by prevai ling legislation . LOBs and SOs are responsible for controlling and tracking the use of retained savings and working with FAA financial services to ensure that savings are tracked in compliance with FAA financial requirements . FAA may retain the savings g enerated from alternative financing provided that such funds may be used only for energy efficiency, water conservation, or unconventional and renewable energy resources projects ( EPAct 2005 §102(f ) , amending 42 USC § 8256 (e) ) . In addition, FAA may retain the full amount of energy and water incentives obtained from utility programs (EISA §516 , amending 42 USC §8256(c)).
3 - 5 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 4. Energy and Water Aspects of Operations & Maintenance ( O&M ) and Energy Information 1. Introduction . FAA must use available energy and wat er management tools, information , and procedures to operate and maintain FAA facilities and equipment in a manner that enhances relia bility and extends useful life . These activities are the responsibility of LOBs and SOs responsible for operating and main taining facilities . This chapter establishes policy for preventive maintenance and the use of energy information to support O&M and achieve the 2016 Guiding Principles .
2. Performance - Based Maintenance . Proper O&M goes beyo nd repairing equipment after it b reaks . Performance - based maintenance seeks to detect equipment degradation and address problems to prevent failure, optimize efficiency , and ensure the life of the system .
a. Activities . Management equipment, information, and pr ocedures can be used to su pport performance - based maintenance activities to increase energy and water efficiency . Performance - based maintenance activities include: (1) Reviewing and updating, as needed, mainte nance procedures, equipment and system maintenance schedules, and building c ontrol set points and schedules; (2) Working with maintenance managers and key stakeholders to update and , if necessary, redefine specific maintenance procedures aim ed at improvi ng the efficiency of operations; (3) Developing training for the operations staff i n the principles and technologies applicable to their buildings or systems , and integrating that t raining into existing courses; (4) Requiring vendors to pro vide training for new equipment; (5) Providing regular technical assistance to the operations staff by co mpleting periodic reviews of th e facility’s energy performance; (6) Keeping staff informed of new energy and wat er maintenance technologies and practices; (7) Monitoring energy and water consumption costs regularly (usually month ly) and comparing them to a base period, the prior period, o r with other similar facilities; and (8) Installing advanced metering systems t h at pr ovide local energy managers and facility managers and other stakeholders wi th data and decision - making tools to support energy and water mana gement and facility operations.
b. Sustainable Practices . FAA must implement sustainable prac tices, including the reduction of electric ity consumption, for the O&M of its buildings (EPAct 2005 §104( a ), amending 42 USC §8259(b) ) . This includes ensuring equipment is replaced with the most energy - and water - efficient option that is life cycle cost - effective .
4 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C 3. Commissioning . Commission ing , recommissioning, and retro - commissionin g ensure that buildi ngs are operated and maintained optimally , and are an important aspec t of energy - efficient O&M . Recommissioning refers to commissioning a building that was previously commissioned, while retro - commissioning means commissioning an existing building that has never been commissioned . Energy and water evaluations must identif y and assess re/retro - commissioning measures (EISA §432 , amending 42 USC § 8253 (f)(3) ) . I n addition, c ommissioning reports for certification purposes must be completed within two years prior to the certification date, and re/retro - commissioning should be c ompleted at least every four years thereafter to be in compliance with the 2016 Guiding Principles (refer to the Sustainable Federal Buildings Guiding Principles in Existing Buildings section below) .
4. Metering . M etering is essential to an effective FAA E n ergy and Water Management Program .
When properly deployed, metering provides building specific data that enables building staff to make informed decisions on how to efficiently operate building systems and equipment . Metering data will enable a local ene rgy manager or facility manager to verify utility bills, optimize equipment performance, diagnose equipment and systems operations, and manage energy use . Thus, metering should improve O&M activities and reduce costs (EPAct 2005 §103 , amending 42 USC §825 3 (e)(2)(B) ) through energy and water savings . The extent to which these savings are realized is highly dependent on t he attention paid by building staff to metering data . E very effort should be made to ensure that staff receive training specific to their metering system.
a. Installation . FAA must install advanced electric metering , to the maximum extent practicable, or standard electric metering, in Agency buildings by October 1, 2012 (EPAct 2005 §103 , amending 42 USC §8253(e)) . By October 1, 2016, FAA mu st install equivalent metering of natural gas and steam (EISA §434(b )( 42 USC §8253(e)(1))) . A dvanced meters or standard meters must be installed , where life - cycle cost - effective, to collect potable and ILA water balance data to improve water conservatio n and management (EO 13693 §3(f)(ii)) . Electric, natural gas, steam, and water metering must be installed at the building or sub - metering level in accordance with the current DOE metering guidance. LOB s and SO s must assess their inventory of facilities f or meter installation, and must deploy advanced metering systems , in accordance with the current DOE metering guidance .
ATO, AMC, ANG - E , and other LOB s and SOs responsible for meter installation must report on metering progress as part of annual energy re porting.
b. Metering Plan . FAA developed and submitted to D OT a metering plan ( 2015 Metering and Benchmarking Plan ) in accordance with EPAct 2005 §103 , amending 42 USC §8253(e) requirements and DOE guidance . Each LOB and SO responsible for facilities is re sponsible for implementing and providing input to update the plan , as needed .
5. Building Temperature Set p oints and Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning ( HVAC ) Schedules . F acility managers should operate occupied and unoccupied buildings in a manner that optimizes energy efficiency , while maintaining occupant comfort and meeting equipment specifications . This should include defining parameters , such as temperature ranges and equipment schedules (e.g., turning off o r reducing ventilation after hours) . Facility managers should operate buildings in accordance with temperature and humidity ranges and ventilation rates established by appl icable LOB and SO guidance, building codes , or industry standards as appropriate for the specific building location an d function . Facility managers should periodically assess temperature setpoints and 4 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C HVAC schedules using the most relevant LOB and SO guidance, b uilding codes , and industry standards . Facility managers should provide established setpoints and HVAC schedul es to LOB and SO energy managers , upon request .
a. Temperature Setpoints . The temperature at which a build ing is maintained affect s how much energy it uses . For cooling, the goal is to keep the temperature setpoint as high as possible , while providing a re asonable comfort level for occupants . For heating, the goal is to keep the setpoint as low as possible , while providing a reasonable comfort level for occupants . Unless applicable LOB and SO guidance states otherwise: (1) F acility managers are responsible f or defining appropriate heating and cooling seasons and temperature and humidity setpoints for occupied spaces , based on local conditions . These setpoints should be consistent with the most recent publication of American Society for Heating, Refrigeration , and Air - Conditioning Engineers ( ASHRAE ) Standard 55 , Thermal Environmental Conditions for Human Occupancy , unless another building code or industry standard applies to a building (e.g., laboratory, data center) . F acility manager s may authorize exception s on a case - by - case basis , based on mission needs, climate , or other local circumstances .
(2) Setpoints should be no higher than 55° F during the heating season f or warehouses and similar unoccupied spaces . F acility manager s may authorize exceptions to thi s temperature requirement on a case - by - case basis , based on mission needs, climate , or other local circumstances.
(3) Cooling systems that support data centers, flight simulators, and other critical equipment (in both occupied and unoccupied buildings) should be operated in the highest third of the temperature range prescribed by the equipment manufacturer . Equipment rooms with particular temperature and/or humidity requirements should be se parately - controlled HVAC zones or served by dedicated equipment that can be operated independently from the rest of the building.
b. Building Schedules . Developing strategies to minimize hours of equipment operation, while maintaining comfort levels , can reduce energy consumption . If a building is not occupied at night or o n weekends, the HVAC system operating temperature should be turned down during the heating season and turned up during the cooling season, or completely turned off during these periods . L ocal circumstances, such as building pressurization requirements or the need for humidity control or freeze protection, may affect appropriate setbacks . Facility managers are responsible for establishing and implementing appropriate building schedules . When HVAC schedules are utilized, it is important to ensure proper st art - up time is provided so that indoor environmental conditions can return to satisfact ory levels by the desired time.
6. Sustainable Federal Building s Guiding Principles in Existing Buildings . At least 15 perc ent (measured by gsf or number of existing buil dings) of FAA’s existing owned buildings that are great er than 5,000 gsf must meet the 2016 Guiding Principles by FY 2025 . FAA must make annual progress toward 100 percent conformance with the 2016 Guiding Principles for its building inventory (EO 13693 § 3(h)(i i )). Buildings that have a status of Report of Excess (ROE) submitted, ROE accepted, Determination to Dispose, or Surplus; or are rarely occupied and use de minimus energy and water are not considered part of the sustainable federal buildings baseli ne and cannot be in compliance with the 2016 Guiding Principles (EO 13693 Implementing Instru ctions §III(D)(3)) .
4 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C a. FAA - Owned Buildings . Existing FAA - owned buildings are considered compliant with the Guiding Principles and can be counted towards the FY 202 5 goal if: (1) They meet the 2016 Guiding Principles for Existing Bui ldings ; or (2) They meet the Guiding Principles for Federal Leadership with High Performance and Sustainable Buildings ( 2008 Guiding Principles ) if they had completed project design and/or the issuance of contracts that will result in meeting at least half of the required guiding principles, elements and sub - elements before the issuance of the 2016 Guiding Principles and are certified as meeting the 2008 Guiding Principles by September 30, 2017.
Buildings that were determined to have met the 2008 Guiding Pri nciples are considered to meet the Guiding Principles through FY 2025 as long as they continue to meet ongoing requirements such as EISA 432 requirements including quadrennial evaluations, on going commissioning, benchmarking, and operating and maintenance requirements. Also, for these buildings, FAA should add the sixth Guiding Principle on Resilience as the ongoing requirements for a four - year evaluation are implemented .
b. FAA - Leased Buildings . FAA - leased buildings are encouraged to be compliant with the 2016 Guiding Principles .
4 - 4 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 5. Energy and Water Aspects of New Construction, Major Renovations , and Leases 1. Introduction . FAA must implement life cycle cost - effective sustai nable practices for the design, construction, lease, and O&M of FAA buildings and spaces . This chapter covers energy and water efficiency and conservation in new construction, major renovation, and leased buildings . The new construction and major renovation requirements app ly to FAA - owned buildings and built to suit ( lease construction ) leases . The p rogram o ffice responsible for construction or major renovation is responsible for meeting these requirements . The CO/ RECO is responsible for making sure appropriate requirement s are included in owned and leased buildin g documentation (e.g., lease) .
While construction and renovation requirements, policies, and procedures are included in the FAA AMS, this chapter focuses on the energy aspects of FAA’s new construction and renovat ion policy , and is intended to clarify roles and responsibilities in the context of FAA’s Energy and Water Management Program . For any conflicts with AMS, the AMS will govern .
2. Life Cycle Cost Analysis ( LCCA ) . The design of new buildings must be made usi ng life cycle cost methods and procedures ( Federal Energy Management Improvement Act of 1988 (42 USC §8254 ) ) . FAA LOBs and SOs must utilize LCCA that appropriately values the operational, energy, and water efficiency gains and cost savings of high - perform ance facility design to evaluate options during the planning and development of major ren ovation and alteration projects . LCCA is the responsibility of the organization developing the requirements and preparing the budget justification for the asset . LCC A must be conducted using the most recent version of the NIST Life Cycle Costing Manual for the Federal Energy Management Program .
3. Federal Performance Standards . All new FAA constructio n and major renovation projects must be completed in accordance with the most recent Federal sustainability/energy efficiency requirements . These standards have been promulgated by various legislation and E O s (e.g., EISA, EPAct 2005 and EO 13693) , and address multiple aspects of sustainability, including energy and water m anagement . In the Annual GHG and Sustainability Data Report , LOBs and SOs must identify new buildings and specify tho se that will meet or exceed Federal building performance standards.
a . Sustainable Federal Buildings Guiding Principles for New Construc tion and Modernization . FAA must construct high p erformance, efficient buildings . All new major construction , renovation , or repair and alteration of existing owned buildings above 5,000 gsf must comply with the 2016 Guiding Principles where cost effecti ve ( EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(D)(3) ) . The new construction and modernization criteria (as referred to in the 2016 Guiding Principles ) should be applied for all new construction and when the project that FAA is undertaking in an existing buil ding is essentially a comprehensive replacement or restoration of virtually all major systems, interior work (such as ceilings, partitions, doors, floor finishes, etc.), and building elements and features ( 2016 Guiding Principles and Associated Instruction s ) . It is the responsibility of the p rogram o ffice that is planning, designing, and constructing the building to ensure implementation of the Guiding Principles . New buildings or modernization projects are considered compliant with the Guiding Principles and can be counted towards the FY 2025 goal if: (1) They meet the 2016 Guiding Principles for New Construction and Modernization ; or 5 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C (2) They meet the 2008 Guiding Principles if project design had been completed before the issu ance of the 2016 Guiding Principle s.
b. Energy Efficiency . All FAA new construction projects must be completed in accordance with the Federal building design standards most recently published by DOE (10 CFR Part 433) . New and replacement FAA buildings must be designed to achieve energ y consumption levels that are at least 30 percent below the levels established in the version of ASHRAE Standard 90.1 or International Energy Code required in the most recently published 10 CFR 433 , if life cycle cost - effective (EPAct 2005 §109(2) , amendin g 42 USC §6834(a)) . FAA must incorporate these requirements into standard design criteria, statements of work, and construction documents , and consider them when defining siting requirements . If a 3 0 percent reduction is not life cycle cost - effective, th e design of the proposed building must achieve the maximum level of energy efficiency that is life cycle cost - effective .
c. Fossil Fuel Reduction . New construction and major renovation projects must be designed so that the fossil fuel - generated energy consu mption of the buildings is reduced, as compared with such energy consumption by a similar building in FY 2003 (as measured by Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey or Residential Energy Consumption Survey data from the Energy Information Agency), by the percent age specified in T able 5 - 1 (EISA §433(a) , amending 42 USC §6834 (a)(3) (D) (i) ) . If an LOB or SO determines that the mandated level of energy reduction is technically impracticable for a building to achieve , the LOB and SO energy manager is re sponsible for developing an exemption request and coordinating it with AEE. AEE will coordinate with the Office of the Secretary of Transportation (OST) to request the exemption from the Secr etary of Energy.
Table 5 - 1 . Fossil Fuel Reduction Requirement s Fiscal Year % Reduction 2010 55 2015 65 2020 80 2025 90 2030 100 d. Net - Zero . All new FAA buildings greater than 5,000 gsf that enter the planning process starting in FY 2020 must be designed to achieve energy net - zero and, where feasible, water or waste net - zero by FY 2030 (EO 13693 §3(h)(i)) . This will assist in achieving the EISA §433 mandate to eliminate fossil fuel - generate energy use by FY 2030. A n energy net - zero building is designed, constructed or renovated and operated such that the actua l annual source energy consumption is balanced by on - s ite renewable energy. FAA must also identify a percentage of the Agency’s existing owned buildings over 5,000 gsf intended to be energy , water or waste net - zero by FY 2025 and implement actions that wi ll allow those building to meet that target (EO 13693 §3(h)(iii)).
5 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C e. Solar Hot Water Heaters . FAA must meet 30 percent of hot water demand in new construction and major renovations through installation and use of solar hot water heaters, where life cycle c ost - effective (EISA §523 , amending 42 USC §6834(a)(3 ) (A)) .
4. Energy Modeling . To measure the energy performance of propos ed new facilities or facilities undergoing renovation, LOBs and SOs should use energy modeling to evaluate technology opportunities a nd trade - offs among options . The modeling should be completed and evaluated by in - house or contract personnel with appropriate experience and qualifications , such as an ASHRAE Building Energy Modeling Professional certification or equivalent. The analysi s should consider each building’s function, major systems and component s, thermal characteristics, materials of the building envelope, the size and orientation of the building, how the building is occupied and operated, and the local climate . The level of detail included in the model should be appropriate for the building’s size and function .
5. Energy and Water Meters . All new construction and m ajor renovation projects at FAA buildings must include installation of advanced meters for electricity to the m aximum extent practicable or standard electric metering (EPAct 2005 §103, amending 42 USC §8253(e)) . Equivalent gas and steam meters are required by October 1, 2016 ( EISA §434(b) , amending 42 USC §8253(e)(1)) . Advanced meters or standard meters must be in stalled to collect potable and ILA water balance data to improve water conservation and management , where life - cycle cost effective (EO 13693 §3(f)(ii)). Electric, natural gas, steam, and water metering must be installed at the building or sub - metering le vel in accordance with the current DOE metering guidance. For new construction and major renovations, or new acquisitions of FAA owned space, FAA must connect all energy and water meters to management systems in order to streamline and optimize measuremen t, management, and reporting of consumption, to the maximum extent possible, where cost effective (DOT Order 4353 and 4355). FAA facilities that produce their own water from local wells or surface water, such as lakes or streams, must quantify water use o f these sources by having production meters installed at the source, to the maximum extent possible (DOT Order 4355).
6. Stormwater Management . Any development or redevelopment p roject involving a FAA facility with a footprint that exceeds 5,000 sf must use site planning, design, construction, and maintenance strategies to maintain or restore, to the maximum extent technically feasible, the pre - development hydrology of the property with regard to the temperature, rate, volume, and duration of flow (EISA § 438 (42 USC 17094)) . FAA must install appropriate green infrastructure features on Federally owned property under its jurisdiction to help with stormwate r and wastewater management (EO 13693 §3(f)(iv)). Stormwater management activities should be performed i n accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency’s ( EPA ) stormwater gui dance, Technical Guidance on Implementing the Stormwater Runoff Requirements for Federal Projects under Section 438 of the Energy Independence and Security Act . As defined within EPA’s guidance, the term “footprint” includes all land areas that are disturbed as part of the project. When pursuing stormwater management projects, FAA must give high er priority for retrofits to existing sites without stormwater management plans where c ost effective (DOT Order 4355). State and local stormwater best management practices may be more stringent than federal requirements. FAA must follow the requirements that are most stringent.
5 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C 7. Historic Properties . When construction or renovation could affect a historic property (i.e., a building , structure, object or site included in or eligible for the Nation al Register of Historic Places [National Register] ) , FAA has responsibilities under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) t o consider the effect of its actions on those historic resources (NHPA §106 ( 54 USC 30610 8 ). FAA review follows the process outlined in the implementing regulations at 36 CFR Part 800, and described in the Section 106 Handbook: How to Assess the Effect s of FAA Actions on Historic Properties under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (June 2015), FAA Order 1050.1, Environmental Impacts: Policies and Procedures and the 1050.1F Desk Reference (July 2015 ) . Since it is not always obvious wh ether a property meets the National Register criteria, the first step in this process is to initiate consultation with the SHPO and/or THPO who can help to identify historic properties as well as other individuals or organizations who may have an interest in the affected property . In addition, FAA must ensure that any activity affecting a Federally - owned historic property is carried out in accordance with Section 110 of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306101) , which requires Federal agencies to manage and maintain the se properties in a way that considers the preservation of their historic, archeological, architectural and cultural values, and should utilize best practices and technologies in retrofitting to promote long - term viability of the buildings (EO 13693 Impleme nting Instructions §III(D)(3)) . The Federal Preservation Officer in AEE - 400 can provide additional guidance on this process.
8 . Fleet Charging Infrastructure. All new construction, major renovation, repair, and alteration of FAA buildings must include ap propriate design and deployment of fleet charging infrastructure (EO 13693 §3(h)(vii )) . LOBs/SOs should consult with the FAA Fleet Manager before beginning design and deployment charging stations. New leases should consider including charging stations for fleet use in consultation with FAA Fleet M anager.
9. Leases . The RECO is responsible for ensuring AMS required provisions pertaining to ENERGY ® STAR , energy efficiency, energy consumption are included in all solicitations and lease contracts .
Refer to AMS policy and guidance for more information on entering into contracts and leases.
® a. ENERGY STAR Buildings . FAA must lease space that complies with current AMS ® provisions on the ENERGY STAR requirements.
b. Sustainable Federal Buildings Guiding Principl es in Leases . For FAA leased buildings, FAA should strive to incorporate as many of the 2016 Guiding Principles as possible in new lease actions , where life - cycle cost - effective . A RECO may pay a premium for sustainable leased spaces to the extent that f unds are available in collaboration with an LOB or SO . The space acquisition will be considered financially feasible if the rental offer for space in a conforming buil ding is no more than 10 percent greater than the market rate for a comparable convention al buildi ng in the same rental market .
Regulations implementing Section 106 of the NHPA define “ effect” as “alteration to the characteristics of a historic property qualifying it for inclusion in or eligibility for the National Register.” 36 C.F.R. 800.16(i).
5 - 4 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C c. Energy and Emissions Reporting for Lease Solicitations. In accordance with AMS policy and guidance, FAA should ensure , to the maximum extent practicable, that all new lease solicitations for fully serviced leases g reater than 10,000 rentable square feet (RSF) will: (1) Include criteria for energy efficiency either as a required performance specification or as a source selection evaluation factor in best - value tradeoff procurements (EO 13693 §3(h)(iv)) ; (2) Require lessors to disclose energy consumption data for that portion of the building occupied by FAA through sub - metering or estimation from pro - rated occupancy data, whichever is more cost effective (EO 13693 §3(h)(iv)); and (3) Require energy data reporting and carbon emi ssions reporting beginning in FY 2016, as part of the FAA’s scope 3 GHG emissions (EO 13693 §3(h)(v)) .
d. Built - to - Suit ( Lease Construction ) Leasing . Built - to - suit lease solicitations must incorporate criteria for sustainable design and development, energy efficiency, and verification of building performance .
5 - 5 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 6. Clean Energy 1. Introduction . This chapter establishes requirements for FAA clean energy use . LOB and SO energy managers, p rogram o ffice project managers, local energy managers, and facility manage rs are responsible for identifying opportunities to increase clean energy consumption . Clean energy is energy generated from either renewable electric energy sources or alternative energy sources , and defined as: (1) Renewable electric energy is renewable energy produced by solar, wind, biomass, landfill gas, ocean (including tidal, wave, current, and thermal), geothermal, geothermal heat pumps, microturbines, municipal solid waste, or new hydroelectric generation capacity achieved from increased efficienc y or additions of new capacity at an existing hydroelectric project (EO 13693 § 19(v)).
(2) Alternative energy is energy generated from technologies and approaches that advance renewable heat sources, including biomass, solar thermal, geothermal, waste heat, a nd renewable combined heat and power processes; combined heat and power; small modular nuclear reactor technologies; fuel cell energy systems; and energy generation, where active capture and storage of carbon dioxide emissions associated with that energy g eneration is verified (EO 13693 § 19(c)).
2. Clean E nergy Consumption . Each LOB and SO responsible f or the O&M of buildings ( i.e., FAA - owned buildings or leased buildings for which FAA pays the utility bill separately from the lease payment) , including goal subject and excluded buildings, is responsible for achieving the clean e nergy requirements specified in T able 6 - 1 ( EO 13693 §3(b)) .
Table 6 - 1 . Clean Energy Consumption Requirements Fiscal Year Percentage of Clean Energy 2016 and 2017 10 2018 and 2019 13 2020 and 2021 16 2022 and 2023 20 2025 and Thereafter 25 a. Identifying Clean Energy Projects. LOB and SO energy managers and program office project managers are responsible for identifying opportunities for increasing clean energy projects , working with appropriate internal and external stakeholders to develop and submit budget requests, and assisting in coordinating projects within their organizations as funding allows. The local energy manager and fac ility manager are responsible for identifying potential projects and facilitating completion of appropriate technical and economic feasibility studies.
6 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C b. Financing Clean Energy Projects. LOB and SO energy managers, program office project managers, local en ergy managers, and facility managers are all responsible for identifying and arranging appropriate financing, and serving as members of the procurement team. LOB and SO energy managers are encouraged to leverage available resources, which may include, but are not necessarily limited to: (1) Appropriations; (2) State and utility grants, rebates, and other incentives; (3) Third - party arrangements, such as PPAs; and (4) Performance contracts, including ESPCs and UESCs.
3. Renewable Electric Energy Supply . Each LOB and SO responsible for the O&M of buildings (i.e., FAA - owned buildings or leased buildings for which FAA pays the utility bill separately from the lease payment), including goal subject and excluded buildings, is responsible for achieving the renewable energy req uirements specified in Table 6 - 2 (EO 13693 §3(c)) . Renewable electric energy consumed in excess of the renewable electric target is counted toward the clean energy target and reduces the amount of alternative energy needed.
Table 6 - 2. Renewable Electric Energy Consumption Requirements Percentage of Renewable Electric Fiscal Year Energy 2016 and 2017 10 2018 and 2019 15 2020 and 2021 20 2022 and 2023 25 2025 and Thereafter 30 4. On - Site Renewable Electric Energy . FAA must impleme nt renewabl e electric energy generation projects on FAA property for FAA use to the extent feasible . Specifically, FAA should seek to obtain renewable electric energy through the following actions, which are listed in order of priority: 1) Installing FAA - funded renewable energy on site at FAA facilities and retaining corresponding renewable energy certificates (REC) or obtaining equal value replacement; 2) contracting for the purchase of energy that includes the installation of renewable energy on site at a FAA facility or off site and the retention of corresponding RECs or obtaining equal value replacement RECs for the term of the contract; 3) purchasing electricity and corresponding RECs ; or 4) obtaining equal value replacement RECs; and purchasing RECs ( EO 13693 §3(d) . FAA should give preference to renewable energy investments that enhance or improve the operation of the NAS, for example, by im proving reliability .
6 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C a. On - site Bonus . The amount of renewable electric energy can be doubled for Federal co unting and reporting purposes if the renewable electric energy is (EPAct §203(c )( 42 USC §15852) ): (1) Produced and used on - site at a Federal facility, (2) Produced on Federal lands and used at a Federal facility, or (3) Produced on Indian land , as defined by Federa l law.
To ensure that projects qualify for the bonus, they should be implemented in a manner consistent with the most recent DOE guidance .
5. Renewable Electric Energy Purchases from a Utility . Renewable electric energy can be purchased from a utility th at provides a product that includes some percentage of renewable power .
This purchase includes both the electricity and the environmental attributes associated with that power; whereas RECs (as described in the RECs section below) represent only the envir onmental attributes of power produced and used elsewhere . DOE provides guidance t h at addresses considerations and specifications that must be included in purchase contracts to ensure these purchases meet Federal renewable energy requirement s and can be co unted toward FAA’s goals .
6. Renewable Energy Certificates (REC ) . FAA has the option of purchasing RECs to help meet renewable energy requirement s . FAA should give preference to on - site energy project investments that improve FAA facilities and infrastru cture over REC purchases. Purchase and application of these credits toward meeting requirement s will be consistent with the most recent guidance from DOE and DOT . In accordance with Federal legislation, REC purchases are the equivalent of renewable elect ricity purchases in meeting the require ments of EPAct 2005 and EO 13693 . Each REC represents the envir onmental and other non - power at tributes from one megawatt hour of electricity from an eligible source . Each REC purchase should identify the underlying generation energy source, location of the generation, date the generation facility was placed in service, quantity of megawatt hour purchased, date of generation (i.e., vintage), environmenta l emissions, and other characteristics associated with the genera tor . This information is necessary for Federal reporting and accounting .
Purchase contracts should be explicit about which attributes are conveyed . Certifi cate tracking systems in states a nd regions issue and record RECs . In order to count a REC toward the renewable electric target in EO 13693, the electricity must have been generated by a renewable generator that was placed into service within 10 years prior to the start of the fiscal year in which FAA intends to count the REC toward the renewable elec tric target. The date of generation of a REC for a given fiscal year must be within a time window that starts six months before the start of the fiscal year and ends three months after the end of the fiscal year (e.g., the vintage of RECs intended to coun t in FY 20 17 should specify a period of generation anywhere between April 1, 2016 to December 31, 2017) or consistent with the most current DOE guidance. REC purchases made to meet the renewable electric energy requirement can be applied to FAA’s clean en ergy goal.
6 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 7. Energy and Water Aspects of Product Procurement and Operations 1. Introduction . This chapter addresses the procurement and operation of products affecting FAA energy and water consumption . P roduct purch ases (e.g., HVAC systems, light fixtures , water fixtures, personal computers) and the operation o f these products have important direct and indirect impacts on the energy and water consumption of FAA facilities . Without compromising safety and operations of the NAS, it is the responsibility of LOBs and SOs , and the appropriate p r ocurement t eams , to ensure that products purchased are energy - and wa ter - efficient, environmentally preferable, and life cycle cost - effective .
2. Federal Product Procurement Standards . FAA must purchase the most energy - a nd water - efficient products available, where life cycle cost - effective and consistent with the mission need .
P rocurement t eams must incorporate the appropriate language into equipment specifications in solicitations and evaluations . This language should reflect updated energy - and water - efficiency standards , and use of available guidance and LCCA tools to suppor t product procurement decisions.
a. Contracts . FAA must promote sustainable acquisition and procurement by ensuring that the environmental perfor mance and sust ainability factors are included to the maximum extent practicable for all applicable procurements in the planning, award, and execution phases of the acquisition (EO 13693 §3(i)) . An allowable exception is available if any of the following c onditions exist: (1) Product or service cannot be acquired competitively within a reasonable performance schedule.
(2) Product or service cannot be acquired that meets reasonable performance requirements.
(3) Product or service cannot be acquired at a reasonable price.
(4) An exception is provided by statute, such as the exception to procuring ENERGY STAR or FEMP - designated products under 42 U.S.C. § 8259b(b)(2).
If a product meets any of these exceptions, FAA should strive to purchase a comparable product that i s ® still environmentally sustainable (e.g., if a WaterSense product is not available at a reasonable price, FAA should purchase a similar product that is water efficient and available at a reasonable price).
b. Environmentally Sustainable Electronic Produc ts . FAA must promote electronics stewardship throughout the acquisition life cycle and ensure a procurement preference for environmentally sustainable electronic products, such as the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT) (EO 13693 §3(l )). EPEAT is a procurement tool designed to help purchasers evaluate, compare, and select products (e.g. , computer desktops, laptops, and monitors ) on the bas is of their environmental attributes . FAA must purchase electronic products or services that mee t or exceed specifications, standards, or la b els recommended by EPA (e.g., EPEAT certified products are the only electronic products in FY 20 16 that meet the requirements ) and follow the latest 7 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C version of EPA’s Recommendation of Specifications, Standards a nd Ecolabels for electronics . Note ® that all EPEAT - r egi stered products are ENERGY STAR - labeled.
® c. ENERGY STAR - Labeled/ Federal Energy Management Program ( FEMP ) - Designated ® Products . FAA mus t purchase or lease ENERGY STAR - lab eled products or products desig nated by DOE as being among the top 25 percent of their class in energy efficiency . This requirement ® applies to all product categories in which ENERGY STAR - labeled or FEMP - designated products ® are available, unless LOBs and SOs document that an ENERGY STA R - labeled or FEMP - designated product was not reasonably available, or the product would not have been cost effective over its lifetime, taking energy cost savings into account (EPAct 2005 §104( a ) , amending 42 USC §8259b . In making a determination that a product would not be lifecycle cost - effective, FAA should rely on the lifecycle cost analysis method in part 436, subpart A, of title 10 of the CFR (10 CFR Part 436.42).
d. Low Standby Power Products . FAA must purchase products that use no more than one wa tt of standby power . If suitable products are not available, FAA should purchase products with the lowest wattage available (EISA §524 , amending 42 USC §8259b) . This requirement applies only to commercially available, off - the - shelf pr oducts, where life c ycle cost - effective and practicable.
® ® e. WaterSense - Labeled Products and Services . FAA must purchase WaterSense - l abeled ® products . FAA should choose irrigation contractors that are certified through a WaterSense - labeled program.
3. Product Operations . T he organizations responsible for informa tion technology (IT) are responsible for ensuring that the equipment is oper ated in a manner that is energy - efficient and environmentally preferable , as described herein . The requirements contained within this secti on apply to FAA - owned equipment that i s non - NAS an d/or non - mission critical . These requirements pertain primarily to administrative desktops, laptops, and monitors; however, environmentally sound practices should be used whe n operating other A gency comput er systems . Any references to “eligible” IT equipment refer to non - NAS and/or non - mission critical IT equipment .
a. Enabling Environmentally Preferable Features on Products . FAA must establish and implement policies to enable power management, duplex pri nting, and other energy - efficient or environmentally sustainable features on all eligible FAA electronic products (EO 13693 § 3 ( l )( ii) ).
b. Extending Useful Life of Products . FAA must extend the useful life of electronic equipment through reuse, donation, an d sales ( GSA Bulletin FMR B - 34 §6(A)(1) ) .
c. Properly Disposing of Products . FAA must implement environmentally sound practices, such as recycling, with respect to the disposition of electronic equipment that has reached the end of its useful life ( EO 136 93 § 3 ( l )( iii)) . This also appli es to other products, such as applianc es.
d. Operation of Servers and Data Centers . FAA must improve data center efficiency by promoting data center energy optimization, efficiency and performance; installing and promoting ad vanced energy meters; and meeting power usage effectiveness targets (EO 13693 §3(a)(ii)). All core data centers must have at least one certified Data Center Energy Practitioner (DCEP), either on - 7 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C site or centralized, assigned to manage data center perform ance and continued optimization. A single DCEP can manage multiple data centers (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(2)).
(1) LOBs and SOs must install and promote advanced energy meters on all data centers by FY 2018 (EO 13693 §3(a)(ii)). New data c enters must be designed and built with advanced energy and water meters, as applicable. Meters must enable the active trac king of power usage effectiveness for the data center, as well as promote implementation of Data Center Infrastructure Management. I n order to maintain consistency with the policies of the Energy Star program for data centers, to the maximum extent practicable, meters to measure the IT energy use of the data center should be installed at the output of the Uninterruptible Power Supply. For data centers undergoing or planned for consolidation prior to FY 2018, LOBs and SOs may defer installation of advanced energy meters until consolidation activities are complete, but no later than the end of FY 2018. For data centers undergoing or plan ned for closure prior to FY 2018, installation of advanced energy meters is not required (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(2)) .
(2) New data centers must meet a PUE target of 1.2 to 1.4 and existing data centers must have a PUE target of less than 1.5 (EO 13693 §3(a)(ii). For existing data centers that are unable to cost effectively achieve a power usage effectiveness of less than 1.5, LOBs and SOs must evaluate alternatives that will allow consolidation and/or closure of these data centers (EO 136 93 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(2)).
(3) To increase the speed of cloud adoption, LOBs and SOs must adop t a cloud - first or cloud - by - default policy when developing or purchasing new systems. When contracting for a data center, LOBs and SOs must demonstr ate procurement preference for data centers with the lowest demonstrated power usage effectiveness to the extent prac ticable and in accordance with applicable acquisition laws and policies. In addition, any new data center contract must require the contra ctor to regularly report power usage effectiveness data to FAA. LOBs and SOs may also include procurement preference for data centers and cloud service providers that use green power (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(2)).
e. Equipment Power Managem ent . FAA must ensure that all co mputer central processing units, monitors, dedicated printers, copiers , and other peripheral equipment in dedicated FAA workspace have power management settings enabled to reduce electricity consumption , especially during n on - working hours , except in instances where it cou ld have a negative impact on mission objectives or bears associated risks . Fax mac hines may be left on 24 hours a day, but users should determine whether continuous operation is cost effective . If leaving a fax machine on is not mission essential and adds little v alue, it should be turned off.
7 - 3 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 8. Energy and Water Awareness and Training 1. Introduction . Energy and water awareness programs i nform and motivate employees to understand and consider the energy and water impacts of their daily activities , and how they can reduce those impacts . These programs also help establish energy and water conservation as a core value in FAA culture . Raising awareness and encouraging employees to reduce their energy and water use is a key component of a s uccessful energy and water program, and is a low/no - cost conservation measure . Training is closely related to awareness, and ensures that appropriate FAA employees have the skills needed to successfully implement FAA’s Energy and Water Management Program (as established by this Order) . This chapter includes training requirements for specific positions , as appropriate (e.g., for energy managers) . This chapter also provides guidance on a ward programs , which recognize successfu l energy and water projects, help raise awareness, and encourage replication and institutionalization of successful best practices . FAA will take advantage of existing internal and external awards program to recognize energy and water achievements.
2. Energ y and Water Awareness Programs . FAA energy and water awareness programs should be designed to engage and educate personnel at all levels of the Agency . They should communicate FAA’s goals for reduci ng energy and water consumption, as well as daily opport unities for employees to reduce energy and water use, and the associated environmental, economic, and social benefits .
Awareness programs should also enlist top management support for the Energy and Water Management Program, and foster a culture of con tin uous improvement . LOB and SO energy managers are responsible for planning and coordinating organization al - wide energy and water awareness activities . AEE should coordinate with LOB and SO energy managers to document awareness activities in annual reports , and should optimize use of internal FAA employee communication channels to communicate energy and water awareness tips and activities.
3. Energy Training . FAA requires energy training for LOB and SO energy managers, local energy managers , and C O s /RECOs re sponsible for nego tiating energy contracts . LOBs and SOs may elect to have additional personnel with energy - and water - related duties participate in appropriate training .
LOB and SO energy managers must ensure that appropriate FAA employees are familiar with the trainings, workshops, and other services offered by DOE . It is the responsibility of LOB and SO energy managers to develop training plan s that will anticipate the training needs for FAA employees, identify the training that will occur over the ne xt year, and encompass both internal and external training . The plan should identify the types of employees to be trained and the training subject areas; plans do not need to specify individuals and courses . LOB and SO energy managers should include the training plan in their organization’s annual energy and water EMPs .
a. Energy Manager Training . FAA must establish and ma intain programs to train energy managers, and encourage the appropriate employees to participate in energy manager training courses (EPA ct 1992 § 157 (a )( 42 USC §8262c)) . These training programs ensure that LOB and SO energy managers and local energy managers are “trained energy managers” as defined in EPAct 1992 § 151(3 )( 42 USC §8262) . In addition, personnel performing building O&M , energy management, safety, and design functions must demonstrate core competencies and pursue continuing education as defined by GSA (Federal Buildings Personnel Training Act of 2010 ( 40 USC § 581 )) . T raining programs can be executed through internal courses, ex ternal resources, or a combination, as appropriate for the implementing LOB or SO . Each LOB and SO is responsible for ensuring that 8 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C energy managers are trained; energy managers are encouraged to take at least one relevant training each year.
b. Contract ing Officer (CO) Training . All COs responsible for negotiat ing energy efficiency contracts (e.g., ESPC s ) must participate in FEMP - sponsored contract negotiation and contract management training ( EISA §517(c )( 42 USC § 17131 ) ) . FEMP offers the required training , ESPC Contracting and Negotiations Webinar, for Federal employees and contractors located at Federal sites .
FAA employees for whom this training is required are responsible for scheduling their own participation . The purpose of this training is to prepa re COs to: (1) Negotiate ESPC s , (2) Conclude effective and timely contracts for energy efficiency services with all companies offe ring energy efficiency services, and (3) Review Federal contracts for all products and services for the potential energy efficiency op portunities and implications of the contracts.
c. Energy Managers ’ Certifications . Energy managers may see k professional certification to enhance their expertise . There are a variety of licenses and certifications that may be appropriate ; ® ® some options incl ude becoming a Certified Energy Manager (CEM ), LEED Associate or Accredited Professional, and Professional Engineer . Each of these licenses and certifications has eligibility and examination requirements.
4. Employee Recognition . FAA should recognize emp loyees for their contributions to reducing energy and water use through internal and external programs.
a. Internal Recognition Programs . FAA should annually re cognize individual employees or teams for superior energy and water management, outreach and awar eness, or energy and water performance . LOBs and SOs are encouraged to review employee incentive programs to ensure that these programs appropriately recognize exceptional performance in implementing this Order .
b. External Awards . DOT annually recogniz es OA employees and teams who have significantly contributed to DOT's mission through energy conservation, transportation management, and environmental stewardship through the DOT Sustainability Achievement Awards Program . This program is managed by DOT’s Office of the Secretary of Transportation ( OST ) , and the Office of Human Resource Management (AHR) coordinates FAA nominations . In addition, DOE annually assists agencies in recognizing employees and teams for their outstanding contributions to saving en ergy at Federal facilities . The call for nominations is directed by OST in coordination with AHR and AEE . These award programs include, but are not limited to, annual FEMP Federal Energy and Water Management Awards an d White House “GreenGov” awards.
8 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C Chapter 9. En ergy and Water Tracking and Reporting 1. Introduction . Timely energy and water performance tracking an d reporting is essential to the FAA Energy and Water Management Program . Each LOB and SO responsible for operating and maintaining buildings and facilitie s must track and report energy and water performance data in accordance with guidance from AEE and spec ifications in the higher - tier EMS energy and water EMPs . Based on this information, AEE must annually report Agency - wide energy and water performance da ta to DOT . This chapter outlines the requirements for tracking, benchmarking , and reporting energy and wa ter consumption; it also addresses requirements and procedures for excluding appropriate facilities from Federal requirement s.
2. Tracking and Performan ce Measures . FAA must track and measure its facility energy and water performance and GHG emission s to comply with applicable legal and EO reporting requirements (e.g., EPAct 200 5, EISA, and EO 13693 ) and meet internal Energy and Water Management Program goals . In addition to measures required for Federal reporting, LOB and SO energy managers or local energy managers should develop measures customized to their organization s to better support program implementation . For example, it may be helpful for LOB and SO energy managers to categorize the different types of facilities by use for internal measurement and benchmarking purposes . Facility categorization will allow energy managers to compare the performance of similar structures, especially for NAS facil ities with energy - intensive equipment.
3. Benchmarking . LOB and SO energy managers are responsible for benchmarkin g metered facilities that meet DOE’s covered facilities criteria and for publicly disclosing this information as required by EISA, other prevai ling legislation, and DOE guidance . See Chapter 3 for details on designating covered facilities. Some state and local governments have benchmarking and reporting requirements for buildings in their jurisdictions. FAA is expected to conform to benchmarkin g and reporting requirements, where feasible (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(1)).
a. Data Entry . LOB and SO energy managers must enter energy use data for each metered building that is (or is a part of) a facility that meets DOE’s covered facili ty criteria into a building energy use benchmarking system (EISA §432, amending 42 USC §8253 (f)(8)(A) ). ENERGY ® STAR Portfolio Manager is the designated building energy use benchmarking system for use in fulfilling Federal benchmarking requirements (Feder al Building Energy Use Benchmarking Guidance §I(C)).
b. Benchmarking Plan. FAA developed and submitted to DOT a metering and benchmarking plan ( 2015 Metering and Benchmarking Plan ). Each LOB and SO responsible for facilities is responsible for implementing and providing input to update the plan, as needed.
c. Data Disclosure . EISA requires public disclosure of the information entered into or generated by the benchmarking system through DOE’s Compliance Tracking System ( CTS ) (EISA §432 , amending 42 USC §8253 (f)(8)(C) ) . For covered facilities, CTS tracks implementation of energy requirements , such as benchmarking, audits, identification of opportunities , a nd implementation of energy and water conservation measures . LOB and SO energy manager s must update such information each year, in accordance with DOE’s most recent guidance, and include in such reporting previous years’ information to allow changes in building performance to be tracked 9 - 1 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C over time . AEE will coordinate and provide guida nce for annual updates to CTS. Buildings in CTS can be normalized for weather if the weather - adjusted Btu consumption is lower than unadjusted consumption when tracking progress toward the energy intensity requirement (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §(III)(A)(1)).
4. Reportin g . AEE is responsible for annually reporting overall progress on energy and water management activities and requirement s to DOT and DOE, in accordance with DOT and DOE guidance . LOB and SO energy managers should document objectives and goal s for obtainin g, using, and reporting baselines and progress in the ir EMS energy and water EMPs .
a. Annual Energy Management Report Summary . Federal agencies must annually submit a report to DOE on their activities to meet energy and water management requirements, includ ing renewable energy . DOE compiles an annual government - wide report for the U.S. Congress . This report describes energy management activities and operations , and progress in implementing the requirements of NECPA, EPAct 2005, EISA, and EO 13693 (42 USC § 8258(b)) . For t he purpose of these reporting activities, b uildings that do not consume energy or water are not reported . To streamline reporting requirements, FEMP incorporated the Annual Energy and Water Management Data Report data collection spreadshee t (last used in FY 2009) into the Annual GHG and Sustainability Data Report . However, there is still additional narrative information required from agencies for their annual energy manage ment that is not captured in this data report . Each LOB and SO must track and report progress to AEE in support of creating the Annual Energy Management Report Summary .
b. Annual Greenhouse Gas ( GHG ) and Sustainability Data Report . This report includes annual energy and water management data (e.g., facility energy consumpt ion, aircraft fuel consumption, renewable energy pu rchase s ) , as well as additional activity data (e.g., refrigerant use, municipal solid waste disposal) needed to calculate the GHG inventory for Scope 1 & 2 and specified Scope 3 emissions . DOT is required to continue annually report to the Council on Environmental Quality ( CEQ ) and OMB a comprehensive inventory of absol ute GHG emissions (EO 13693 § 9 (c)) .
This report is usually due to DOT in December (for the previous FY) . In accordance with guidance prov ided by CEQ, DOE, and DOT, AEE will coordinate and develop FAA input for this annual report , based on data provided by LOBs and SOs.
c. S trategic S ustainability P erformance P lan (SSPP) . FAA must provide input to the DOT SSPP , and submit an annual FAA SSPP a s requested by DOT.
5. Exclusions from Federal Performance Requirements . An important consideration for LOB and SO energy managers or local energy managers tracking and reporting facility energy and water consumption is noting which buildings are excluded f rom the requirement for Federal buildings to reduce energy intensity 2.5 percent annually through the end of FY 2025 . The annual energy and water management report must designate buildings as “ goal subject ” or “ excluded .” Buildings that are granted exclu sion from the energy performance requirements are referred to as “ excluded ,” rather than “ goal subject .” Energy and water use at these buildings is still tracked and reported annually, and FAA is allowed to credit verified energy efficiency improvements i n these excluded buildings toward the 2.5 percent annual reduction goal. Therefore, measured and verified annual Btus savings from an efficiency improvement in an excluded building are deducted from the total Btus consumed by the 9 - 2 10/26 / 17 1053.1 C A gency's goal subject bui ldings while holding gross square feet constant (EO 13693 Implementing Instructions §III(A)(1)) . Each organization responsible for the operation and maintenance of facilities is responsible for designating and justifying excluded buildings .
a. Four Findin gs for Exclusion . FAA may exclude any building from the energy intensity reduction requirement by demonstrating all of the following four findings (EPAct 2005 §102( c ) , amending 42 USC §8253(c)(1) (A) ): (1) Energy requirements are impracticable (see subsection (b) below) ; (2) All Federal ly - required energy management reports ha ve been completed and submitted; (3) The Agency has achieved compliance with all energy efficiency req uirements; and (4) Implementation of all practicable, life cycle cost - effective projects has be en achieved at the excluded building(s).
b. Impracticability . For the purpose of excluding facilities from the energy intensity reduction requirement, a finding of impracticability must b e based on one of two criteria: (1) The Federal building ( or collection o f Federal buildings ) ha s energy intensive functions .
This criterion applies to facilities with energy - intensive processes for which FAA can clearly demonstrate that process - dedicated energy overwhelms other building energy consumption, and the fluctuation in the operation of the process would significantly affect meeting the energy performance requirements . For example, with 35 percent or more of building energy dedicated to process equipment, only 65 percent of total building energy is left to be reduced . At this level of process energy , it is impracticable to achie ve an overall 30 percent reduction.
(2) The Federal building ( or collection of Federal buildings ) is used in the performance of a national security function . This criterion applies to facilities in which national security is overwhelmingly the primary function and this either prevents the implementation of energy efficiency measures or prohibits the reporting of energy consumption data because it would pose a demonstrated security risk.
c. Justific ation and Approval of E xclusions . These exclusions must be completed in accordance with the most recent DOT/DOE guidance . AEE will review and consolidate exclusion requests proposed by the LOB s and SO s , and submit them to DOT, which in turn will submit t hem to DOE .
