Sustainable Design and Development Charrette for U.S. Army Military Installations in the Korean Peninsula

摘要

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Districts are required to begin incorporating sustainable design and development (SDD) principles into their projects. To meet the requirements, the USACE Far East District (FED) has begun SDD training for its engineers and customers with the Eighth U.S. Army (EUSA) installations in Korea. As a part of this training, FED conducted a SDD charrette 26-28 February 2002. This work has documented the proceedings of the SDD charrette at FED that provided a current snapshot view of the issues confronting FED/EUSA installations in Korea in 2002 in six categories: (1) Water, (2) Energy, (3) Materials/Resources, (4) Indoor Environmental Quality (IAQ), (5) Facility Delivery, and (6) Sites/Future Missions. For each priority issue, a desired end state (goal) was defined, metrics were defined, a timeframe was developed, and the first two steps toward the goal were recommended.
