3. Call for Action “It is time for Air Force leaders to actively engage communities, state and regional governments, and stakeholders. Engagement at all levels of the Air Force is essential to supporting an enduring mission and promoting sustainable communities. To successfully engage, the Air Force must build a cross-functional encroachment management framework that integrates existing Air Force programs into a comprehensive strategy. Without this framework, our response to encroachment will be disjointed and our installations, and the missions they support, could be compromised.”  TIMOTHY A. BYERS Maj Gen, USAF The Civil Engineer 3
4. Background DOD Directive 3200.15, January 2003 AF Program established November 2008 Steering Committee SAF/IEI, AF/A7C, AF/A3O AFI Under development Encroachment Management Flight Plan signed Nov 2010 FY10 – AFSPC prototype studies: Buckley AFB & Patrick AFB FY 11 – AF Reserve Command began Encroachment Management Initiative Themes and Concepts: Encroachment Management, Conservation Partnership, Mission Sustainment, Compatible Development, Stakeholder Engagement 4 4 4
5. Background continued… The Air Force has developed the following definition of encroachment: Encroachment is defined as any human activities or decisions that impair or may potentially impair the current or future operational capability of an installation complex or may have an adverse effect on nearby communities. Encroachment and Sustainment Challenges (Impacts Across All Functional Areas) Air and Land Space Restrictions Airborne Noise Urban Growth Spectrum Energy Endangered Species/Critical Habitat Air Water Natural Factors/Climate Effects Cultural Resources Security Unexploded Ordnance/Munitions Maritime Sustainability Installation Complex

11. Encroachment Management Working Group
12. EMWG Purpose The EMWG is a cross-functional working group that advises the Strategic Basing Executive Steering Group (SB ESG) on encroachment management issues that may impact military readiness and operational capacity and capability The EMWG is similar is structure and scope to existing SB ESG Working Groups, such as the Basing Request Review Panel (BRRP) As a Cross-Functional Working Group of the SB ESG, the EMWG works with Air Force components to develop and refine proposed courses of action related to encroachment management
13. Monitor Ongoing Encroachment Issues Through the Encroachment Management Team structure Guidance down the chain Issues up the chain
14. MAJCOM EMT Status Change since last update
15. Active MAJCOM Encroachment Management Teams Missile Engineering Squadron Helicopter Operations Asset Management Civil Engineer CE Programming Safety Judge Advocate Space Operations Environmental Planning Air Quality Management Facilities Management Wing Safety Office Range Operations Water Quality Management Utility Management *not all functions are represented at all 3 MAJCOMs 3 MAJCOMs have stood up EMTs to deal with encroachment The teams have cross-functional representation from the following organizations*:
16. Space Command Encroachment Prevention Committee Established: 2008 Directed the establishment of Installation level committees Chair: AFSPC / A4/7PP Meetings (Frequency): Bi-monthly w/ Semi-annual updates to CV via the ESOH Council Scope: The HQ AFSPC Committee develops the comprehensive AFSPC encroachment prevention strategy; acts as liaison on HQ Air Force encroachment taskers; provides a forum for distribution of encroachment prevention lessons-learned; and advocates for support and resources for priority encroachment prevention initiatives identified by the Wings.
17. Air Combat Command Encroachment Management Team Established: Feb 2010 Staffing directive for installation level teams Chair: ACC / A3A Meetings (Frequency): Monthly Scope: The HQ ACC Committee develops the comprehensive ACC encroachment management strategy; acts as liaison on HQ Air Force encroachment taskers (to include RE siting); provides a forum for distribution of encroachment prevention lessons-learned; and advocates for support and resources for priority encroachment management initiatives identified by the Wings. In addition, the committee spotlights a specific ACC installation each month and discusses their encroachment issues.
18. Global Strike Command Encroachment Working Group Establishment in process (ECD: 17 Feb 11) Chair: AFGSC / A7P Meetings (Frequency): Quarterly and as necessary Scope: The EWG shall establish encroachment management strategy guidance and provide assistance to installations as necessary. The EWG will also act as liaison on HQ Air Force encroachment taskers; distribute encroachment related lessons-learned; and advocate for support and resources to mitigate encroachment issues.
19. Encroachment Management Risk Assessment Overview Objective assessment of Encroachment Management through two-step Risk Assessment process: Self Assessment Conducted by IEMT or CPLO / Enc Mgmt Lead External Assessment Developed through ICEMAP Integrates and supports established Encroachment Management Fundamentals 13 Encroachment and Sustainment Challenges Internal and External Encroachment ICEMAPs
20. CPLO Background No Primary Point of Contact for Encroachment Management: Considered a secondary job Assigned to personnel with multiple job responsibilities Performed on part-time basis Installation encroachment leads with CPLO responsibilities have various unofficial titles, many not recognized within the Air Force chain-of-command: Director, Community Initiatives Team Lead Encroachment Prevention Manager Public Partnerships Director Executive Director, Encroachment Prevention Committee Base Community Planner Chief of Asset Optimization
21. Why the CPLO “AF reactive, not proactive on encroachment” “Encroachment-specific guidance needed” “Encroachment is a local issue; requires more than AICUZ” “Encroachment is not high on the Commander’s priority list” “Need a focal point / lead for encroachment management” “Too often a secondary staff responsibility” “Multi-disciplinary working group needed” “Encroachment education and training needed” “AF needs to understand regional and local issue” “No ongoing monitoring of encroachment issues” “Metrics needed to gauge encroachment management progress”
22. Installation Encroachment Management TeamMulti-functional Collaborative Planning & Problem-solving WG/CC Chair Executive Director, IEMT WG/CC CPLO Collaborates with CPLO to: Participate in appropriate public meetings and forums, in coordination with established positions involved with stakeholder outreach and engagement Review documents such as AICUZ studies, NEPA assessments, etc. Integrate applicable resource plans/studies, NIA findings, and other regional/local plans with encroachment management planning Collaborates with CPLO to: Participate in appropriate public meetings and forums, in coordination with established positions involved with stakeholder outreach and engagement Establish communication themes and messages for delivery to stakeholders, and monitor regional and/or local external media for articles on encroachment issues Base Level Collaborates with CPLO to: Review proposed development for operations compatibility Participate in appropriate public meetings and forums, in coordination with established positions involved with stakeholder outreach and engagement Review documents such as AICUZ studies, NEPA assessments, etc. 22
23. What is the ICEMAP? Air and Land Space Restrictions Airborne Noise Urban Growth Spectrum Encroachment Energy Endangered Species/Critical Habitat Air Water Natural Factors/Climate Effects Cultural Resources Security Unexploded Ordnance and Munitions Maritime Sustainability Provides a common framework to assist AF Installation Complexes and community stakeholders in identifying encroachment issues Examines current encroachment challenges Analyzes factors that could affect these conditions in the future Assists AF Installation Complexes and community stakeholders to mitigate existing and prevent future encroachment impacts to both Installation Complexes and local communities Provides an Action Plan to reduce the encroachment and sustainment challenge impacts on AF Installation Complexes and community stakeholders Encroachment Challenge Areas
24. Revised ICEMAP Methodology 2. Low Level Visit Obtain installation “buy-in” for ICEMAP process Verify initial findings and gain familiarization with installation and issues Request additional documents. Literature & Data Review Identify installation missions Define installation complex, mission footprint Obtain and review installation & community stakeholder documents Encroachment Issue Identification Create initial mission sustainment analysis tables 6. Community Interviews Verify encroachment findings to date Identify new encroachment issues 5. Encroachment Issue Refinement SKULL SESSION Revise mission sustainment analysis Identify knowledge gaps for community interviews Provide progress brief for installation commander to review issues and obtain go-ahead for community interviews 4. Installation Interviews Verify encroachment findings to date Identify new encroachment issues Identify relevant community stakeholders Encroachment Issue Finalization & Draft Action Plan SKULL SESSION  Complete mission sustainment analysis Perform SWOT Analysis Identify & rate potential actions 10. ICEMAP Report Generate final written findings Provide final brief for installation commander   Recommend next steps for ICEMAP implementation 9. Action Plan Generate installation & community actions Conduct analysis of management actions  8. Review and Prioritize Recommended Action Items w/ EMT Approved by CC, Coordinated by MAJCOM EMT Marstel-Day-Client Joint Action Marstel-Day Action
25. ICEMAP Journey 5 Phases of the ICEMAP Organize Assess and Build Internal Strategy Assess and Build External Strategy Production (Synthesis and Action) Implementation and Maintenance
26. ICEMAP Value Provides comprehensive situational awareness of mission Establishes responsibility for encroachment management Provides individualized installation encroachment strategy Institutionalizes engagement with external stakeholders Validates, focuses, and energizes current efforts at all AF levels Leadership IEMT / EMT / EMWG Airmen Identifies tools available and needed Guidance Resources (CPLO, education and training, etc.)
27. FY11 ICEMAP Deliverables
28. Compatible Land Use Strategy Comprehensive study of land use as it relates to encroachment Uses a GIS-based methodology to identify and prioritize the potential for interest in and acquisition of land parcels that are key for protecting the Installation Complex Identifies real estate and land use planning tools, funding, and potential partners who share interests compatible with mission sustainment needs
29. CompatibleLand Use Strategy continued… Eligible Entity Interests: Habitat and Species Natural Resources Open Space Working Lands DoD Interests: Protecting Installation Operational Capabilities Sustaining Mission Meeting Installation Environmental Protection and Stewardship Responsibilities Landowners/Willing Sellers Interests: Getting a fair price for their property Encroachment Partnering (EP) Opportunity Identified by EP Strategy Identifies three pathways: Encroachment Partnering (EP): Acquisition of land interests where there is a nexus among Installation priorities Eligible entities (government and NGOs) Willing seller(s)
30. CompatibleLand Use Strategy continued… Regulatory: Accomplishment of compatible land use planning on parcels of interest through regulatory processes Zoning Building codes Overlay zones Comprehensive/general plan amendments Air Force Acquisition: Purchase of land interests where EP is either inappropriate or infeasible
