Headquarters U. S. Air Force Integrity - Service - Excellence The Air Force Military Munitions Response Program For: Mr. William Barry AF/ILEVR

Munitions Response (MR) Other than Operational Ranges n Drivers: n FY 02 National Defense Authorization Act n Inventory developed/updated annually n Required development of a prioritization tool n New program element (0708003 F) n Sep 01, Office of Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (I&E) n Requires munitions response actions IAW CERCLA & the National Oil and Hazardous Substances Pollution Contingency Plan (NCP) n n Do. D Site Prioritization Protocol published in Federal Register as a “Proposed Rule” Status: n FY 03 Military MR Program inventory currently contains 261 sites with current cost-to-complete of $838 M n FY 02 Baseline = 241 sites and cost-to-complete of $706 M n Air Force proposing use of a Performance Based Management approach to execute program – Focused on “Safe to Reuse” goal Integrity - Service - Excellence

Performance Based Management Introduction n Military Munitions Response (MR) program n n n A new program with new challenges Integrates environmental restoration with explosives safety Objective: Make sites - “Safe to Reuse" n n Focus is end state, not process New paradigm required n Capitalize on experience gained in Installation Restoration program n Results are drivers n Seize upon successes, avoid the past pitfalls Integrity - Service - Excellence

Premise for Performance Based Management (PBM) in the MR Program Similar sites should have: n Comparable costs n n Similar solutions Take about the same time to ready for reuse Evaluating past performance can: te ria op se pr U Ap ce g our in or es ct /R Fa and L n Data on Performance at Completed MR Sites Streamline Response “Safe to Reuse” Re Bu gul y-i ato n t ry o C Ag on en str cy uc t n n Streamline responses n Drive decisions n Be basis for performance based remedial objectives n Provide objective standards and tools to monitor performance n Baseline data for performance based contracting Integrity - Service - Excellence Resource Available for Reuse
