Environmental Protection
Abstract
This program develops and evaluates processes, hardware, systems, operational procedures, scientific methods, and environmental studies that will allow the Navy to operate in U.S., foreign, and international waters, air, space, and land areas while complying with environmental laws, regulations, Executive Orders, policies and international agreements. Many environmental laws, regulations, and policies impose restrictions on Navy training and testing, vessels, aircraft, and facilities that interfere with operations and/or increase the cost of operations. The Navy must be able to conduct its national security mission in compliance with applicable environmental requirements in the U.S. and abroad without compromising performance, safety, or health, while simultaneously minimizing the cost of compliance. The projects for this Program Element (PE) support the Navy's compliance with the (a) Clean Water Act, (b) Act to Prevent Pollution from Ships, (c) International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships, (d) DoD Regulations on Vessels Owned or Operated by the Department of Defense, (e) OPNAV Environmental and Natural Resources Program Manual,(f) Uniform National Discharge Standards [UNDS] Phase I Standard, (EO) 13148, Greening the Government Through Leadership in Environmental Management, (g) Nonindigenous Aquatic Nuisance Prevention and Control Act of 1990, (h) National Invasive Species Act of 1996, (i) Ballast Water Management for Control of Nonindigenous Species in Waters of the United States, (j) Clean Air Act, (k) Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act, (l) Marine Mammal Protection Act, and (m) Endangered Species Act. References (a) through (m) establish Level I environmental protection requirements. Project 0401, Shipboard Waste Management, supports efforts that enable Navy ships and submarines to comply with laws, regulations, and policies in six major areas: (1) Liquid Wastes, (2) UNDS Rulemaking, (3) Hazardous Materials and Pollution Prevention, (4) Hull Antifouling Paints, (5) Technical Authority, and (6) Ballast Water Exchange Improvements. Project 0817, Environmental Sustainability Development, supports the development and validation of technologies to enable Navy facilities to comply with environmental laws, regulations, and policies in a cost-effective manner. The Marine Mammal Research (MMR) program is responsible for applied research and works to address the Navy's key research needs and transition the results and technologies for use within the Navy's at-sea environmental compliance and permitting processes in compliance with the Marine Mammal Protection Act and the Endangered Species Act, with the goals of improving marine species impact analysis (including marine mammal take estimates), mitigation measures and monitoring capabilities. Key points of the MMR mission are: (1) Improve the best available science regarding the potential impacts to marine species from Navy activities, (2) Expand the technology and methods available to the U.S. Navy marine species monitoring program (3) Preserve core Navy readiness capabilities. The This funding allows the Navy to avoid or reduce the chances of costly litigation for non-compliance. $3.000M added in FY 2018 and FY2019 in accordance with settlement agreement under Marine Mammal Protection Act (new project created).

- Change Summary Explanation
- The FY 2019 funding request was reduced by ($.104) million to reflect the Department of Navy's effort to support the Office of Management and Budget directed reforms for Efficiency and Effectiveness that include a lean, accountable, more efficient government. Technical: FY19: TA reduced to support Ballast Water Management tasking related to procurement and testing of Navy approved Ballast Water Treatment System. Liquid Waste decrease due to completion of shipboard piping modifications for long-term assessment of sewage and graywater piping development, prevention, and cleaning. Non-copper Anti-fouling decrease reflects completion of in-situ testing of antifouling coatings. Schedule: Not applicable.
