The Office of Administration and Resources Management (OARM) is pleased to
present the 2004 Nationwide Facilities Guide. The Guide is a complete listing of our
buildings and facilities throughout the country and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. It
provides a quick and easy method of accessing detailed facility information, including support
data for each location.
The Office of Administrative Services continually strives to improve the quality of
EPA's office and laboratory space. The majority of Headquarters' office space is newly
renovated; the remainder in three Crystal City buildings will be re-located to a new, 2-
building office complex in Potomac Yards (adjacent to Crystal Gty) in 2006. Projects are now
underway to re-locate two Regional offices. The Region 8 office will be moving into a new
downtown office building in Denver in 2006, and the Region 1 office will move to a
completely renovated courthouse building in Boston in 2008.
Our commitment to providing a clean and healthy work environment for all our
employees is exemplified in the new facilities with high standards for indoor air quality,
natural light, and quality furniture systems. Some of our facilities also provide fitness and
child care centers.
In the past two years we leased new Regional laboratories in Chelmsford,
Massachusetts (Region 1) and Kansas City, Kansas (Region 7). We continue the phased
upgrading of the Regional laboratories in Chicago, Illinois (Region 5) and Manchester,
Washington (Region 10) and are developing a plan to improve the laboratory facilities at
Edison, New Jersey. This will complete the modernization efforts for all regional laboratories.
Our new state-of-the-art facility at Research Triangle Park (RTF) in North Carolina opened
in 2001. This facility provides approximately 1,150,000 gross square feet of office and lab
space for almost 2,200 employees.
We are pleased and proud of the Agency's accomplishments in providing quality
space for our employees and state-of-the-art facilities to support our mission.

Overview of EPA Space Inventory 2005
The Environmental Protection Agency occupies approximately ten million square feet of space in 191 facilities,
staffed by about 25,000 personnel in fifty states and four territories. EPA facilities, constituting offices and
laboratories, are accommodated in spaces that are categorized as: GSA-owned (58 facilities comprising about
36% of EPA's total square footage), GSA-leased (95 facilities, 33% of square footage), EPA-owned (21 facilities,
30% of square footage), or EPA-leased (or special use agreement) (17 facilities, 1% of total square footage). In
2001, EPA occupied about 9.8 million square feet in 155 facilities.
The principal facilities of the Agency are the Headquarters facilities located in Washington, DC metropolitan
area, the ten regional offices, and the two major research centers situated in Research Triangle Park, North
Carolina, and Cincinnati, Ohio.
EPA facilities are distributed over ten regions across the United States, each of which has a regional
headquarters office and several laboratories. The laboratories perform a broad range of scientific and

Laying a Green Foundation
Green Buildings - EPA Leads by Example
EPA has been in the forefront of sustainable design and construction and has been actively promoting 'Green
Buildings' - structures that incorporate principles of energy and resource efficiency, waste reduction and
pollution prevention, good indoor air quality and natural light, and transportation efficiency in design and
construction, during use and reuse.
EPA utilizes both innovative state-of-the-art technologies and holistic approaches to design, construction,
renovation, and use of EPA owned and leased facilities. Some of the important considerations in the creation
of a Green Building are:
* site planning that utilizes naturally occurring resources and features on the site, such as solar and
wind energy, natural shading, native flora, topography and drainage,-
» location and programs to optimize use of existing infrastructure and transportation options, including
the use of alternative work modes such as telecommuting and teleconferencing;
* use of recycled content and environmentally preferable construction materials and furnishings,
consistent with EPA Procurement Guidelines;
« minimization of energy and materials wastage throughout the building's lifecycle,-
» design of the building envelope for energy efficiency;
* use of materials and design strategies to achieve optimal indoor environmental quality and to
maximize health and productivity;
« operation systems and practices that support an integrated waste management system,-
* recycling of building materials obtained as a result of demolition;
* management of water as a limited resource in site design, building construction, and building
operations; and
* utilization of solar and other renewable technologies, where appropriate.
Evaluation of trade-offs is an important component of the design of Green Buildings. Where the goals of a
Green Building are contradictory (for example increased ventilation vs. increased energy efficiency), the trade-
offs are evaluated in a holistic framework to achieve long-term benefits for the environment. Also, the
physical considerations are balanced with other policy objectives such as environmental justice, particularly
with regard to site location. EPA adopts a consistent approach to evaluate and consider sustainable designs
for all its buildings.
Examples of Green Building Practices and Sustainable Design are highlighted in the following pages.

Quslainable Design
Headquarters Facilities: Arlington, Virginia
The leases for EPA's office space in the Crystal City section of Northern Virginia expire in 2005. For
its new office space, EPA worked with GSA to develop a Solicitation for Offers (SFO) that addresses
environmental standards. GSA received initial offers in August 2003 and awarded leases on May 6,
2004. EPA is expected to occupy the new space in early 2006. The newly constructed facility must
meet a minimum LEED™ Silver 2.1 rating.
Energy Conservation
The new facility must achieve the EPA ENERGY STAR® building label within 14 months of
occupancy. To reduce energy use, the facility would utilize an energy-efficient building shell
design, smart-glazed windows, efficient mechanical systems that minimize and recapture waste
energy, and energy-efficient lighting and appliances. EPA also plans to reduce energy consumption
through the use of renewable or innovative energy technologies.
Water Management
The facility must conserve water wherever possible, for example, through the use of harvested
rainwater or drip irrigation systems, low-flow plumbing fixtures, or low-maintenance nati\e
landscaping that minimizes supplemental irrigation. EPA also plans to address stormwater runoff by
minimizing the amount of non-permeable hardscape and using porous pavement.
Resource Conservation
Recycling and waste minimization must be a priority. The lessor must have a Construction Recycling
Plan prior to construction and utilize
recycled-content construction materials
as required under the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA)
section 6002. The facility should also
incorporate EPA's revamped
Headquarters recycling program and use
environmentally preferable products that
contain above average recycled content.
Indoor Air Quality
Attention will be paid to indoor air quality
through the use of low-VOC interior
adhesives, paints, sealants, caulks, and
environmentally preferable janitorial and
cleaning products. In addition, adequate
\entilation and air filtration will be
included as part of the central and
distributed HVAC systems.

The New England Regional Laboratory
Region 1, Chelmsford, Massachusetts
LEED™ Gold certification 2003
\\hite House Closing the Circle Award 2002
Total Facility area: 66,000 sq ft
The New England Regional Laboratory
became operational in October 2001. The
facility was awarded LEED™ Gold
Certification in 2003 for its commitment
and adherence to sustainability. It also
received the White House Closing the
Circle Award in 2002. for its integrated
sustainable design.
The high-performance environmental features of the building include energy-efficient electrical and
mechanical systems, 100% green power, water conservation, active solar power, natural lighting,
and improved indoor air quality. The incorporation of these measures make the Chelmsford Lab 35%
more energy efficient than a standard constant volume laboratory.
The Chelmsford Lab conducts chemical and biological analysis, and monitors environmental
samples of air, water, sediment and toxic waste. An efficient waste handling and disposal system
was therefore imperative. A state-of-the-art acid neutralizing system was installed within the
building, thereby preventing contaminants from entering regional wastewater plants.
The conservation-specific features of the facility are:

• The Chelmsford Lab works \\ith local utility Massachusetts Electric's Design 2000plus to
participate in its energy conservation program,
« energy efficient mechanical and electrical systems in the building include daylight and
occupancy sensors, v\ater-cooled chillers, insulated windows, variable flow pumping
systems, and variable air volume heating and cooling systems,-
* use of photovoltaic awnings reduces heat and glare and also supplies a small amount of
required electricity, and
» special skylights harness and diffuse natural light into the building, reducing the
dependence on artificial light.
The Chelmsford Lab's energy consumption is 15.3 percent less than EPA's other variable air volume
laboratories."
'Weighted average energy use for EPA variable air volume laboratories is 360.957 Btus/GSF/year. This figure was calculated
using data from EPA labs in Kansas City. Kansas. Fort \Aeade. Maryland; Athens. Georgia; and Golden, Colorado.

The New England Regional Laboratory, continued
Region 1, Chelmsford, Massachusetts
Water efficiency
The laboratory at Chelmsford was one of EPA's first laboratories to develop a water management
plan. Water conservation elements incorporated into the building include:
« use of electronic sensors on plumbing fixtures in the restrooms results in twenty-two
percent savings in water use
« a rooftop rain recovery system collects water from roofs through drains to replenish on-site
wetlands;
» on-site well provides non-potable water for irrigation,- and
» planting local flora that require little water and are well-suited to the local environment.
Waste handling and recycling
Wastewater generated in the laboratories is disposed of through a state-of-the-art acid neutralizing
system within the building, while the sanitary wastewater is piped to the regional wastewater utility.
During construction, the Chelmsford Lab was able to divert more than fifty percent of its materials
from the landfill by committing to a major recycling effort, including construction and demolition
debris, metals, cardboard, clean wood, plastics, glass, gypsum drywall, carpet, rigid foam insulation,
and general refuse. In addition to construction recycling. The Chelmsford Lab features construction
products and furnishings with extensive recycled material content including ceiling tiles and
carpeting.
Indoor Air Quality
EPA is committed to safe and healthy indoor environments especially in laboratories:
» all material used in the building was examined for its impact on indoor air quality,-
« measures were taken to exclude materials that did not meet EPA-designated safety levels,-
and
* ultra-low volatile organic compound products were used indoors.
Other measures taken to improve the quality and safety of indoor air included cleaning of all duct
work, replacing filters before occupancy, and utilizing environmentally preferable cleaning materials.

Applied for LEED™ certification
Total area: 70,000 sq ft
The National Computer Center (NCC),
an integral component of EPA's largest
facility at the Research Triangle Park, is
located in a separate building uithin
the main campus. It houses EPA's
central data processing and exchange
operations. Completed in 2001, the
building incorporates energy-efficient
features and a reduced environmental
footprint, demonstrating that high-tech
buildings can be designed and
constructed on green principles on a
standard budget. EPA has applied for
LEEDU1 certification for the facilih
The outstanding feature of the Computer Center is its high energy-efficiency achieved essentially
through the use of photovoltaic technology.
Energy efficiency
NCC uses 40% less energy than a standard computing facility. It is also self-sufficient in meeting its
energy requirements. The reasons are:
« non-polluting photovoltaic roof tiles generate the Center's energy requirements. The solar
technology provides the Center's lighting needs,-
« the 15,000 sq ft solar roof is one of the largest in eastern US;
» high efficiency 'Green' fluorescent lighting with daylight and motion sensors uses 70% less
electricih than conventional lighting, and is used throughout the building;
* south-facing lobby lets in natural light;
» all workstations are close to natural light;
0 heat absorbing floor tiles use sunlight to provide 'free' heating during winter,-
« use of thermoplastic polyolefin membrane on roofs reduces heat gain and also the cooling
COStS;
« windows are paned with Low-E glass that increases their thermal efficiency and hence
reduces cooling costs during summer,- and
« use of outside air economizers reduces energy costs.

The National Computer Center, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, continued
Region 4
In October 2003, EPA finalized commitments to purchase more than 35 million kilowatt hours (kWh)
worth of green power per year for its RTF-Main and NCC facilities.
Water efficiency
Water wastage is reduced through the use of water-efficient fixtures including flow restricting
nozzles, automated shutoff, and automatic temperature control of water delivery system. The
restrooms are equipped with sensor-operated faucets.
Native flora and adapted species were planted, which eliminates the need for watering and
sprinkler systems.
Indoor Air Quality
EPA maintained stringent controls to ensure safe and high air-quality levels by specifying safe levels
for volatile organic compounds and other contaminants in the building materials used during and
after construction. The Center's printer and copier rooms have separate exhausts to expel toner
dust.
The computer room is equipped with FM 200 Fire Protection System. This system has no adverse
impacts on the environment. It is non ozone-depleting and does not harm the sensitive equipment
in the computer room.
Child Care Center, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina
Region 4
Construction of EPA's new child care center at its Research Triangle Park, NC campus began in April
2004. The 25,400*quare foot facility will replace the current First Environments Early Learning Center
(FEELC), and will allow FEELC to extend services to fifty-four additional children of federal employees.
This facility will have space for 188 children, forty-one staff members, twenty classrooms, a large
multipurpose room, a commercial-grade kitchen, infant care rooms, and an outdoor playground
area.
Like the rest of EPA's RTP campus, the new FEELC will incorporate green building features such as
effective daylighting and energy efficiency. By incorporating these and other sustainable design
principles, the facility will achieve a Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED™)
Building Rating at the Silver level or higher.

Region 7 Laboratory, The Kansas City Science & Technology Center
LEED Gold Certification 2003
EPA's newest laboratory is the Region Seven Science and Technology Center (STC) in Kansas City,
Kansas. The facility was dedicated on May 9, 2003. Built on a brownfields site, the building employs
many energy, resource, and water-efficient characteristics in its design and construction to preserve
natural resources, ensure occupant health, and serve as a model for future laboratory design.
A dedicated team of individuals and agencies, including contractors, developers, engineers,
architects, EPA staff, and the U.S. General Services Administration, pursued a sustainable approach
in the development and construction of STC. In August 2003, the laboratory was awarded Gold 2.0
Level certification from the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED™) program.
The Solicitation for Offers (SFO) for this facility included green language to ensure that the facility
and all its construction features promote energy efficiency and incorporate environmentally
preferable materials and design. The initial mechanical system design chosen for the lab included
variable air volume (VAV) fume hoods, VAV office ventilation, and heat recovery. Energy modeling
performed on this initial design produced further economical energy conservation approaches
resulting in design additions such as carbon dioxide sensors in conference rooms and other
common areas (to reduce the amount of outside air needed during unoccupied periods), plate and
frame heat exchange recovery, and a combination of a variable frequency drive and conventional
chiller system.
Based on electricity and natural gas consumption reported during the facility's first nine months of
operation, the laboratory's energy consumption rate was approximately 275,000 British thermal units
(BTUs) per gross square foot per year - twenty-four and a half percent less consumption than EPA's
other variable air volume laboratories.*
A unique rooftop rainwater recovery system captures and filters rainwater for use in flushing toilets;
it cuts treated domestic water use by approximately fifty percent and reduces stormwater runoff by
40 percent. Since the rainwater recovery system collects more water than needed for the toilets, the
excess is used to provide make-up water for the building's cooling towers. The estimated saving
from this unique system is 735,000 gallons water per year. The use of xeriscaping and the
installation of low-flow faucets further reduce water use at the laboratory.
Environmentally preferable products used to construct the building included recycled content
flooring, carpet, ceiling tiles, and building materials. ENERGY STAR® reflective roofing was also
installed to reduce the building's cooling load. STC also incorporates energy-efficient famps, low-
energy window glass, motion sensors for lighting, and daylighting features. The SFO also required
contractors to recycle construction waste.
"Weighted average energy use for EPA variable air volume laboratories is 365,116 BTUs/GSF/ year.
This figure was calculated using data from EPA labs in Chelmsford, Massachusetts,- Fort Meade,
Maryland; Athens, Georgia,- and Golden, Colorado.

Green Solicitation
Region 8 Headquarters, Denver, Colorado
The lease for EPA's Region Eight Office space in Denver, Colorado, expires in 2006. By July 2006, the
Agency plans to move into leased space in a new building to be located at the site of the former US
Post Office Terminal Annex Building. The proposed space will be a sustainable, state-of-the-art
facility reflecting EPA's environmental protection mission. To accomplish this goal, EPA worked with
GSA to develop a solicitation for offers (SFO) including provisions that address energy efficiency,
water and resource conservation, indoor air quality, and the use of renewable energy technologies.
EPA and GSA are using a two-step design competition to deliver the best building to house Region
Eight Headquarters. The.first step of the competition involved the selection of five teams based on
their experience in green building, energy performance, and office development. This step was
completed in early 2004. In the next stage, the winning teams will compete on building design,
sustainable attributes, and cost. The SFO developed by EPA and GSA includes stringent minimum
provisions for sustainable performance—the facility will aim for a LEED™ Silver or higher
certification—and the competition is structured to produce a building that exceeds this minimum
requirement.
Energy Conservation
The facility must achieve an EPA ENERGY STAR® building label within fourteen months of occupation.
An energy-efficient building shell design, smart-glazed windows, efficient mechanical systems that
minimize and recapture waste energy, and energy-efficient lighting and appliances could be used
to reduce energy use. EPA also plans to incorporate renewable or innovative energy sources where
economically feasible.
Water Management
The building must conserve water wherever possible, for example, through low-flow plumbing
fixtures, harvested rainwater or drip irrigation systems, and other water-efficient mechanical
designs. In addition, the site must address stormwater management through techniques such as
the use of porous pavement and landscaping with native plant species that are adapted to local
growing conditions.
Resource Conservation
Recycling and waste minimization must be a priority. During construction, recycling and waste
minimization will be mandatory, and the final office space must accommodate EPA's active
recycling program. The facility must also utilize environmentally preferable products with above
average recycled-content wherever possible.
Indoor Air Quality
The site must maintain good indoor air quality through the use of low-VOC interior adhesives,
paints, sealants, caulks, and environmentally preferable janitorial and cleaning products. There will
be no use of lead, asbestos, or asbestos-containing materials. In addition, adequate ventilation and
air filtration will be included as part of the central and distributed HVAC systems.

Green Purchasing and Pollution Prevention
As the largest consumer of goods and services in the United States, federal agencies are required by
Executive Order 13101 to buy products and services that reduce impacts on the environment. As part
of its ongoing commitment to promoting environmentally preferable purchases and services, EPA
announced Agency-wide "green purchasing" goals on Earth Day (April 22) 2003. The goals lay out an
aggressive path for EPA to "green" the following purchases and activities,- many have already been
met or are well on their way.
»' Green Buildings: All of EPA's new facilities and new building construction acquisition projects
should meet the US Green Building Council's LEED™ Silver standard, at a minimum, starting by
2005.
* Green Janitorial and Maintenance: By 2010. all significant EPA janitorial and maintenance
contracts should include compliance with ASTM Cleaning Stewardship for Community
Buildings Standard and use of cleaning products bearing the Green Seal.
« Green Copy Paper and Publications: All printing paper products must meet a minimum
standard of 100 percent recycled, 50 percent post-consumer content, and be process chlorine-
free wherever possible.
» Green Meetings: All meetings planned or funded by EPA must be considered "green" no later

Green Power
EPA works to promote the development of clean energy, wherever possible, through the purchase
of "green power," or energy from renewable sources with low environmental impacts such as wind
and landfill gas. As of March 31, 2004, thirteen Agency facilities were under contract to receive a
total of 122 million kilowatt hours (kWh) per year of renewable energy. Procurement is underway for
an additional 26 million kWh per year. Nearly all of these facilities procure green power equivalent to
100 percent of their annual electricity consumption. Assuming these procurements are successful,
the Agency's green power purchases will account for fifty-two percent of nationwide EPA electricity
consumption by Fiscal Year 2005.

Green Power: Estimated Share of Total Electricity
EPA works \\ith a number of federal agencies to help expand the number of facilities procuring
green power throughout the federal government:
• General Services Administration (GSA)
» DOE's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL)
« DOE's Federal Energy Management Program (FEMP)
• DOD's Defense Energy Support Center (DESC)
» Western Area Power Administration (WAPA)
Green power comes from a number of renewable sources, including wind, solar, geothermal, and
landfill gas technologies. Compared to conventional energy sources, these technologies emit very
low amounts of greenhouse gases (GHGs) such as carbon dioxide (CO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and
nitrogen oxides (NOx). By purchasing green power, EPA reduces GHG emissions and helps support
its mission of protecting and maintaining a healthy environment. EPA's green power purchases,
under contract as of March 31, 2004. helped reduce CO2 emissions by 230,899,562 pounds per
vear—the equivalent of removing 13.582 cars from the road for a year.

Some EPA facilities procure renewable energy from local sources within their regional power grid. In
some areas, where local sources may not be available, it may be more efficient for EPA to purchase
renewable energy certificates (RECs), or green tags, from outside the regional electric grid. RECs
represent the environmental benefits of green electricity generated at wind, solar, landfill gas, or
biomass facilities. EPA supports the growth and development of the green power industry. For more

Energy and Water Conservation
EPA is required under Executive Order 13123 and the Energy Policy Act of 1992 to reduce its energy
and water use through efficient management practices. To address these requirements and be a
good environmental steward, EPA focuses on energy and water conservation in its laboratories,
particularly in those buildings it owns or where it pays for utilities. The Agency designs energy and
water efficiency into the new buildings it occupies; in existing facilities it has used Energy Savings
Performance Contracts to improve efficiency, conducted re-commissioning and retro-commissioning
in laboratories where performance could be improved, targeted specific mechanical upgrades in
some facilities, and installed renewable energy technologies in others.
Energy Savings Performance Contracts (ESPCs)
ESPCs are a third-party financing technique that enable federal agencies to finance major energy
efficiency improvements without the need for using scarce facility capital improvement funds. EPA
has pursued two ESPCs to achieve improved energy and water performance, saving approximately
fourteen million dollars in Building and Facility funds. Under an ESPC, an Energy Services Company
(ESCO) proposes projects to increase the energy efficiency at a facility, and, following agency
approval, purchases and installs the necessary equipment, such as updated heating, ventilation,
and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, and modern controls. In exchange for not having to pay
the upfront project costs, the federal agency promises to pay the company a share of the utility cost
savings resulting from the energy efficiency improvements. The ESCO is responsible for maintaining
the equipment over the life of the contract.

Region 5: National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory, Ann Arbor, Michigan
In 1998, EPA signed an ESPC with NORESCO for its National Vehicle and Fuel Emissions Laboratory
(NVFEL) in Ann Arbor, Michigan. NORESCO replaced NVFEL's obsolete and aging HVAC system and
instituted a series of operational practices to ensure the new system would serve the needs of the
laboratory while maintaining the highest practical degree of energy efficiency. Energy-saving
technologies included: installation of new air handling units with indirect evaporative cooling;
replacement of aging chillers and boilers with new chiller/boilers; and installation of a new cooling
tower, a new direct digital control (DDC) system, and a 200 kilowatt fuel cell. Improvements are
valued at ten million dollars. The ESPC has helped reduce the laboratory's annual energy use by
more than forty-two percent, and water consumption by sixty percent.
Region 6: Robert S. Kerr Environmental Research Center, Ada, Oklahoma
The Environmental Research Center has installed a ground-source heat pump as part of its ESPC
upgrade, which also includes variable air volume fume hoods and air supply, new fan motors, and
an integrated digital direct control system for HVAC, energy, fire, and security management. The
total value of improvements is approximately four million dollars. The ground-source heat pump has
eliminated the use of natural gas, which greatly reduces energy consumption in the Ada laboratory.
Substantial energy savings in excess of fifty percent are anticipated fro'm this project, with final
commissioning in November 2004.
The geothermal system and reduction in current cooling tower operations will contribute to a
reduction in water consumption of more than eighty percent. In addition to the environmental
benefits, geothermal systems require lower maintenance than conventional systems, which will
reduce Agency expenditures.

Commissioning
Commissioning is one of the most important keys to energy efficiency in buildings. It starts during
the design process, to ensure that the functionality of the systems being designed can meet the
performance requirements. Commissioning during construction ensures that the equipment
installed during construction is the equipment specified and is installed appropriately.
Commissioning at the completion of construction ensures the systems operate as intended in the
design. Commissioning is increasingly important as laboratory and office mechanical systems
become more complex to build, operate, and maintain. Currently, EPA has extensive re-
commissioning efforts underway at its Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, campus.
Region 3 Laboratory, Fort Meade, Maryland
When EPA's Environmental Science Center in Fort Meade, Maryland, opened in 1999, the building
was not thoroughly commissioned. To ensure that the facility was operating in the energy-efficient
manner in which it had been designed, EPA Headquarters and Region Three began a "re-
commissioning" of the building in 2001.
The re-commissioning revealed that the system operations were not maximizing the energy
conservation potential of the original design. Even though the laboratory had installed variable air
volume fume hoods, the facility's control system was not programmed properly to take advantage
of the energy savings this equipment could provide. Specifically, the amount of air exhausted from
the fume hood and conditioned air supplied to the labs did not decrease or increase appropriately
when fume hood sashes were closed or opened. In addition, the night-time temperature and air
change setback functions were not operating. The re-commissioning process also revealed that by
better matching fume hood and fume hood manifold exhaust, the lab could reduce fume hood
and fume hood manifold exhaust fan operations, thus saving energy.
By March 2002, the re-commissioning was complete, confirming supply and exhaust requirements
in each lab, correcting logic errors in the sequence of operations, re-programming the Building
Automation System (BAS), and calibrating the mechanical system controls so that system operations
matched BAS readings. This effort resulted in a twelve to fifteen percent reduction in energy use by
the laboratory, and annual savings in utility expenses of more than $100,000. The project had a
payback period of less than one year.

Administrative Services Web site at .

Mechanical Upgrades
To improve energy performance over the long term, EPA has targeted several facilities to receive
upgrades of their HVAC systems and controls.
Region 1: Atlantic Ecology Division Laboratory, Narragansett, Rhode Island
Atlantic Ecology Division Laboratory's chiller system had not been operating efficiently: chilled water
from the supply side was mixing with—and getting warmed by—spent chilled water from the return
side. This meant that chilled water was being delivered at a temperature twelve degrees Fahrenheit
too warm, forcing the lab's chillers and cooling towers to use additional energy to "re-cool" the
water. EPA is not only addressing this problem, but completing additional mechanical upgrades (see
"Energy Master Planning" below). The construction contract for this project was awarded in
September 2003 and completed in May 2004. These upgrades are expected to reduce the facility's
energy use by approximately twelve percent.
Region 9: Central Regional Laboratory, Richmond, California
EPA is pursuing an ESPC-like mechanism to finance upgrades to improve energy performance at the
Central Regional Laboratory in Richmond. The completed upgrade design includes a natural gas co-
generation unit to provide electricity and hot water for laboratory operations and improve power
reliability. Richmond is also planning to upgrade HVAC controls equipment in the facility and replace
one large boiler with two smaller boilers, which can be staged for maximum efficiency. Under an
arrangement with the firm from which EPA leases the building, the building owner will pay for the
improvements, and EPA will pay it back with the utility savings it realizes. These upgrades are
expected to result in a thirty percent energy savings for the Richmond facility.

Sustainable Design
Energy and Water Conservation
Alternative Energy
EPA employs onsite renewable energy technologies, at manv facilities, to reduce its reliance on the
electrical grid, conserve resources, and demonstrate renewable technologies.
Alternate energy projects include: photovoltaic (PV, or solar energy) awnings in the Chelmsford,
Massachusetts, lab; solar collectors at EPA's lab in \Aanchester, Washington,- and a solar wall in
Golden, Colorado. These educational projects round out large alternate energy components such
as the ground-source heat pump system included in the Ada ESPC and a 200-kW natural gas fuel cell
installed as part of the Ann Arbor ESPC.
A solar hot water heater is helping EPA reduce both energy and water consumption at its Region
Nine Child Care and Fitness Center in San Francisco. The new "closed-loop" solar generation system
eliminated the need for natural gas that went into the previous system. Energy-efficient washers
and high-efficiency showerheads installed during the upgrade further reduce energy and water
consumption and costs.
The National Computer Center in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, is outfitted with a 100-
kilowatt, integrated roof power system that is one of the largest PV installations on the east const.
Installed in April 2002. the PV system converts sunlight into electrical energy, feeding it directK to
the building and supplementing the main power utility. The system's PY cells are backed with
insulating polvstvrene foam, which increases the building's thermal insulation.
In addition, the RTP campus installed solar streetlights in parking lots and along facility roadways,
creating the longest stretch of solar-lit roadway in the United States. The solar roof and street lights
reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately TOO tons annually when compared to
conventional energy production.

Energy Master Planning
In the past EPA's master plans for its facilities focused on factors such as future space requirements
and architectural modifications. However, EPA is now incorporating energy and other sustainable
design and operational considerations as well during the master planning process.
Energy master plans identify long-term opportunities to improve the energy efficiency of EPA's HVAC
systems and ensure that short-term mechanical system projects fit into a long-term sustainable
vision for the facility. Following are some of the components that go into energy master planning:
* developing a long-term vision for a building's mechanical systems, performance and energy
use,-
» evaluating lifecycle costs of mechanical systems,-
» providing a safe and comfortable environment for building occupants,- and
» implementing or acquiring mechanical systems that reduce environmental impacts.
EPA completed an energy master plan for the Cincinnati AWBERC facility in 2003 that sets a
framework for the multi-year HVAC infrastructure replacement project currently underway.
Region 5: Andrew W. Breidenbach Environmental Research Center, Cincinnati!, Ohio
The basic mechanical systems at EPA's second largest research facility are more than thirty years old,
and AWBERC's mechanical infrastructure will need to be replaced over the next ten years. This
laboratory is also one of the Agency's biggest energy consumers on a BTU-per-gross-square-foot
basis. The energy master planning process identified significant opportunities for performance
improvements, including a migration to variable air volume laboratory ventilation systems and more
sophisticated controls. EPA also used this process to address infrastructure replacement sequencing
issues, to reduce the inevitable interruptions in research, that would come from making system
upgrades. Implementation of this plan is expected to produce a more reliable, safe, and energy-
efficient laboratory.

Master Planning
EPA's Facility Planning & Design Standards
Since its inception in 1970, EPA has grown at an average rate of 3.5% annually, with a parallel growth
in its facilities. This expansion, together with the need to upgrade laboratory facilities, necessitated
space planning guidelines that would ensure the safety and efficiency of all EPA buildings. To meet
this need, the EPA Facilities Manual combines three elements - Space Guidelines,- Architecture,
Engineering and Planning Guidelines,- and the Facility Safety, Health and Environmental
Management Manual - that describe the standards for acquiring, building, and renovating EPA
space.
The Space Guidelines cover a range of topics, including space distribution, environmental
considerations, suggestions for planning and design, space acquisition procedures, and selection of
materials and furniture. One of EPA's goals is to achieve consistent quality office space for all its
employees. The Guidelines have accordingly incorporated environmental considerations such as
indoor air quality, energy efficiency, resource conservation, and pollution prevention.
The Architecture, Engineering and Planning Guidelines provide specific requirements for all aspects
of building construction that are incorporated in all new and renovation construction of EPA
facilities. These guidelines focus particularly on laboratories and cover such topics as planning for
flexibility by using modular laboratory spaces, requirements for heating, ventilation and air
conditioning systems, electrical and plumbing systems, requirements for access to buildings by
persons with disabilities, and purchasing of environmentally preferable construction materials and
products.
The Facility Safety, Health and Environmental Management Manual describes the full scope of
features required in EPA-occupied facilities to maintain a safe and healthy work environment. The
objective of this standard is to provide reasonable safeguards against injury, prevent fire exposure,
health hazards and environmental damage, prevent property loss, promote health, well-being and
productivity of occupants, promote the successful integration of environmental requirements into
facility design processes to prevent pollution, and support EPA's goal of environmental stewardship.

Master Planning
Master Planning for EPA Laboratories
LP\ has used a recurring Master Plan process for its laboratories since 1984. This process evaluates
all EPA facilities, identifies critical needs for improving older facilities, and ensures that
laboratories meet the research and analytical needs of the programs and regions. As a result of this
process, most of EPA laboratories have either moved to nev\ spaces or undergone significant
renovations, becoming state-of-the-art laboratories.
The Master Plan process has been invaluable in providing clear justification for funding buildings
and facilities appropriations both for repair and improvement, and new construction. The process
invokes a detailed site investigation to assess facility conditions including interviewing facility staff
and management to identify any areas that do not meet the needs of the program or region.
Preliminary plans for improvement are developed together with cost estimates and
implementation strategies. These plans are reviewed by senior management in the program or
region, as well as by OARM management, to develop a five-year budget outlook for the Buildings
and Facilities (B&F) budget, and to furnish the justifications for specific B&F projects. The Master
Plan process is updated about every five years to assimilate changes in program requirements.
In order to facilitate the Master Plan
process, all information on EPA facilities,
including drawings, photographs, work
plans for individual B&F projects, has been
entered into a database called SLATE
(Strategic Lease and Asset Tracking
Enterprise).

Qecuring EPA's Facilities
In response to the events of September 11, 2001, and the continued threat of terrorism against
Federal assets and interests, the Security Management Division (SMD) in the Office of
Administrative Services, has established programs to assess and mitigate physical security
vulnerabilities in order to protect Agency employees, resources and facilities nationwide.
Beginning in October 2001, SMD created several project teams to conduct qualitative physical
security risk assessments at EPA facilities nationwide. In less than two years, this effort has led to
the assessment of more than eighty-five sites and the identification of more than 1,000
vulnerabilities. To document site-specific information, SMD developed a physical security risk
assessment report for each site visited. These reports address a broad range of procedures and
physical security controls used at EPA facilities. In addition, the reports identify and document
vulnerabilities based on standards outlined in the Department of Justice's US Marshals Service
Report, Vulnerability Assessment of Federal Facilities. June 28,1995 (Marshals Report).
Pursuant to the Marshals Report standards, EPA facilities were classified based on size, number of
employees and need for public access as well as threat and Agency mission. Each facility was
assigned a security level I through V with security level V denoting the most critical, high-risk facility.
The SMD security reviews assessed several areas including perimeter security (lighting, parking,
closed circuit televisions and physical barriers), entry and exit security (receiving and shipping,
access control entrances and exits), interior security (employee/visitor identification, utilities,
occupant emergency plans and day care centers), and security planning (intelligence sharing,
training, tenant assignment, administrative procedures and construction/renovation).
Based on the information obtained in the assessments, SMD identified security vulnerabilities at
each of the EPA facilities visited. The identification of these vulnerabilities allowed SMD, in
coordination with the affected program or regional office, to implement necessary security
measures. Vulnerabilities were then ranked based on facility criticality, facility security level and
severity of risk associated with the vulnerability.
Once the identification, ranking and prioritization of vulnerabilities was completed, SMD moved on
to nationwide mitigation efforts. Working from the physical security assessment reports, SMD
developed and recommended mitigation measures as well as initial cost projections for each
vulnerability. In coordination with the program and regional offices, SMD continues to implement
these mitigation strategies as well as assist with their funding.
The physical security assessment and mitigation program at EPA has had great success. From
Boston to Seattle, SMD is working with Program and Regional personnel to make the Agency's
physical assets more secure. The Region Two Headquarters Office, located in Lower Manhattan, is
designated as a security level IV facility with approximately 815 employees and 277,000 square feet
of space. The work of the office includes the improvement of air quality in the New York
Metropolitan Area,- the assessment, restoration and protection of the Great Lakes,- proper
management and disposal of hazardous waste as well as the improvement of water quality in
Puerto Rico. Prior to mitigation efforts, the Elk Street entrance provided a direct, unobstructed.
-------
Securing EPA's Facilities
high-speed avenue of approach to the office. As a result of SMD's assessment, this entrance was
deemed a vulnerability that provided the opportunity for extensive damage to resources and
personnel. Completed mitigation efforts include the installation of a barrier and security guard
post at the Elk Street entrance. The barrier prevents vehicles from gaining unauthorized access
while the security guard post enables a guard to initiate emergency response procedures quickly.
SMD also has worked with the Office of Research and Development's Mid-Continent Ecology
Division (MED) of the National Health and Enxironmental Effects Research Laboratory in Duluth,
Minnesota, to assess and mitigate security vulnerabilities. The MED facility is designated as a
security level III facility with approximately 155 employees and 12,000 square feet of space and
performs research to protect freshwater ecosystems, wildlife and to understand aquatic toxicity.
Prior to SMD's mitigation efforts, the MED facility did not have a closed-circuit television (CCTV)
system. The lack of such a system increased the facility's vulnerability to unauthorized and
undetected penetration of key entrances. SMD worked with MLD personnel to install an internal
and perimeter CCTV system with a central monitoring capability. This use of technology is essential
to increasing security and assisting the program in meeting the goal of providing a safe and secure
work environment.
These are just two examples of SMD's assessment and mitigation efforts on behalf of EPA
nationwide. These efforts are ongoing and SMD will continue to work to ensure the security of
EPA's employees, resources, and facilities nationwide.

IPX Headquarters is mainly located in a five building complex known as the Federal Triangle. This prominent
location, bounded by 12th & 14th Streets, and Pennsylvania & Constitution Avenues NW, is within walking
distance of the White House, the US Treasury Department, the National Mall and other federal agencies. A
\Vtrorail stop on the Orange & Blue lines is located \\ithin the complex.
The Agency occupies approximately 1.9 million rentable square feet of office space in the Federal Triangle
Complex. EPA's final moves into the complex were completed in November of 2002. The final building to be
renovated and occupied was EPA West (formerly the US Customs Service Building). Along with 1PA I ast
(formerly the Interstate Commerce Commission Building), the Connecting Wing and the Ariel Rios Building,
I PA has renovated and restored about 1.6 million rentable square feet of historic space at Federal Triangle.
The complex provides dining facilities, a child care center and a fitness center. The amenities are available to
all EPA employees at Federal Triangle.
The growth of the Agency has necessitated the
acquisition of space outside of the Federal Triangle
complex. These facilities are in Washington, DC and
in the Uarvland and Virginia suburbs surrounding the
ciK. Including Federal Triangle, these facilities
together house the 8,000 (approximate) employees
of EPA Headquarters in about 2.6 million square feet
of space. Most of these facilities are in close
proximitv to Uetrorail stations, and, as an added
convenience, EPA also provides a shuttle service
between the various facilities.

the Federal Triangle Station of the Metro subway system. EPA's New Headquarters plan was first announced
in late 1993 and the first occupants, the Office of Enforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA), moved
into the south half of the building during the \\inter of 1995-1996. The programs that occupy the north side
of Ariel Rios moved into the building in stages, the last of which took place in December 2000.
Renovation of the ARFB consisted of the installation of a new mechanical system, an upgraded electrical
system, new lighting, and a sprinkler system. Facades and decorative features were cleaned and / or
restored as needed. The renovation also included correction of building code deficiencies, including
changes made to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, and asbestos and lead
abatement. Every effort was made to maintain, restore, or replicate elements of historic interest. This
renovation followed the standard scope of work for historical buildings.

EPA acquired this facility in 2003, on a ten-year lease under GSA's Advance Acquisition Program. The building is
located in the heart of the business district of Washington, DC between 13th & 14th Streets NW on L Street,
approximately eight and a half blocks from The Federal Triangle Complex. This building is less than a block
from the well known Franklin Court Building, which houses a component of The Administrator's Office. The
nearest Metro subway stop is \AcPherson Square, about two blocks south on 14th street. As with most
Headquarters buildings, this building is on the EPA shuttle bus route.
1310 L Street is a 1960s, base framed concrete structure owned by The Cafritz Foundation. It was completely
renovated in 2001. The building is ten stories high with three levels of underground parking. Each floor plate,
from the second through the tenth, is a compact 14,000 rentable (13,000 usable) square feet. EPA occupies the
entire building of approximately 125,000 usable square feet.
The size of this building offered a unique opportunity to consolidate the components of the Office of Air &
Radiation (OAR) from 501 & 633 3rd Street, located near Judiciary Square. Approximately 570 employees of OAR
are currently housed in this building, \\ith a total capacity for 650. OAR offices in this building are the Office of

The Woodies Building is the newest addition to the Agency's Headquarters facilities outside the Federal
Triangle Complex. While the entire base building is in the midst of an extensive rehabilitation, construction of
EPA's space is complete. EPA's Office of Research & Development (ORD) National Center for Environmental
Research (NCER), a component of approximately 130 persons, and The Office of the Administrator's Science
Ad\ isory Board (SAB), approximately thirty persons, occupy the entire third floor (about 40,000 usable square
feet). EPA will be a GSA sub-tenant on a ten-year lease under the Advance Acquisition Program.
The 'Woodies' Building, named for the former Woodward & Lothrop Company Department Store, is both
historically and architecturally significant. This century-old handsome city landmark fills nearly the entire city
block bounded by 10th and 11th Streets and F and G Streets NW. It has many character defining elements that
contribute to the building's historic significance. This eleven story building is protected by District of Columbia
Historic Preservation and National Park Service mandates.
EPA's space on the third floor is on two split levels, due to the nature of the base building floor plate. The
smaller upper and the larger lower level are connected by sets of steps and ramps along the central core. The
building's high slab to slab bays offer opportunity for variations in ceiling height in the tenant space. The
space has been designed with high ceiling areas along the full height perimeter windows and in the
interconnecting system of corridors. The main entrance and reception area, just off the historic marble floored
elevator lobby, has a rotunda-like ceiling v\ith special lighting. An exclusively designed, 120-seat capacity
Conference Center for SAB occupies the east quadrant of the floor. A number of smaller conference rooms,
pantries & coffee stations are distributed within the ORD & SAB suites. The ORD suite has a state-of-the-art
video conference room. There is also a small lactation room on the floor. EPA's space is secured not only by a
guard manning the magnetometer and x-ray machine, but also via key card access to all entrances.
The building sits above the Metro Center subway stop and is also served by EPA's shuttle bus route.

With the release of the Westory Building in September 2002, The Environmental Appeals Board (EAB) moved to
The Colorado Building at 1341 G Street, NW. EPA's Environmental Appeals Board (EAB) is the final Agency
decision-maker on administrative appeals under all major environmental statutes that the Agency administers.
This component of the Administrator's Office consists of about twenty-five people including the four Judges,
Attorneys, other para-legal personnel, and interns. The entire sixth floor of this eleven story historic building
was renovated to accommodate the special needs of this group.
EPA's design standards call for an open workstation plan, limiting the number of enclosed offices located on
the perimeter walls. Due to the nature of the work done by the EAB, these standards were superceded by the
functional need to give the majority of the staff secure private office space. Although the standards for open
workstations were set aside, the intent of that plan, to give the majority of the personnel exposure to natural
lighting, was accomplished as all staff are located in perimeter offices.
The floor plate of the Colorado Building is square, but the sixth floor was designed with the intent of breaking
up that "boxy" feel. With very little natural light entering the interior spaces, special design elements were
utilized to offset this disadvantage. Curves were incorporated into walls, ceiling lines, and carpeting to add
interest and character to what otherwise may have given a tunnel-like feel to hallways. Special light fixtures
were installed to give a glow to the space, artwork chosen to add interest and style, and wall and carpet colors
were chosen to give a feeling of openness and light.
As with all new EPA facilities, environmentally friendly materials were utilized, including recycled fabric wall
covering, aired-out carpet, VOC-free adhesives and paints, etc. Although specialized lighting design was
implemented, energy efficient compact fluorescent lamped fixtures were utilized that meet the agency's
stringent lighting design guidelines.

The EPA Region One offices are located at One Congress Street in an area of downtown Boston called the
Government Center, where federal, state and local agencies occupy a cluster of several large office buildings.
The EPA offices are housed on two floors that, in 1990, were added on the top of the large Government
Center parking garage, constructed in 1970.
The parking garage building, sheathed in precast concrete, presents a stepped-back profile to the street, and
bears a superficial resemblance to the nearby Boston City Hall. Access to the two office floors is provided by a
elevator bank and lobby that is appended to the side of the garage structure. The office spaces on floors ten
and eleven receixe natural light from large exterior windows and a long rectangular skylit atrium that provides
light to interior spaces.
The building sits above the Haymarket "T" station, which serves the Green and Orange lines of the
Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (The "T").
In 1998, when the Department of Labor vacated its Congress Street offices, EPA Region One had the
opportunity to consolidate its Boston operation. The Office of Site Remediation and Restoration, along with
the Superfund Records Center, Conference/Training Center and Library, which had been located three blocks
away at 90 Canal Street, were mo\ed to One Congress Street, and the Canal Street facility was released. The
entire Congress Street office space was renovated and reorganized.
The Region One offices now occupy three quarters of the tenth floor and all of the eleventh floor.
Upon the expiration of its lease here. EPA will m< >\e its regional headquarters to the McCormack Building in
downtown Boston. Renovation of this historic structure is planned over the next three years.

The completion of EPA's New England Regional Laboratory in Chelmsford, Massachusetts marks a nev\ level of
environmental achievement in EPA's continuing effort to lead by example. This facility incorporates an array of
en\ ironmental features, including energy efficient heating and cooling systems, active solar power and
lighting, recycled materials, environmentally friendly landscaping, improved indoor air quality measures and
support for wind-powered electricity to run the building (see Introduction section for more details).
EPA sought and received a LEED1" (Leadership in Energy and Environment Design) Gold certification from the
US Green Building Council. The Chelmsford Lab was also honored with the 2002 White House Closing the
Circle Award for its recycling efforts and integrated sustainable design. Additionally, GSA awarded the lab its
Demolition Derby Award for the extensive effort made to recycle construction materials. More than fifty
percent of the generated solid waste was diverted from landfills.
From the beginning, the Lab at Chelmsford was imagined, designed, and built with the highest environmental
priorities. The building is sited on a high outcropping of rock, taking advantage of natural drainage and the
cooling effects of the prevailing winds. Removed stone was crushed and re-used for roadbed and fill material
and large stones were preserved for use as a retaining wall. Existing trees and natural areas were maintained
as much as possible and EPA planted about forty local species of trees and plants as well.
Resources naturally available on the site were utilized to avoid generating unnecessary debris, minimize site
demolition, and reduce heavy equipment traffic. All soil and gravel on the site was stockpiled and graded for
later use as fill or loam. Blasted rock outcroppings were crushed on-site and used as base material for concrete
paving; sub-base for bituminous concrete pavement; backfill for footings, structures and pipe bedding; and for
under-drain filter aggregate. Reuse of materials avoided disposal costs and was sufficient to complete the
landscaping and fill work with only a minimal amount of sand brought in for finish grading.
Materials used in construction contained the highest recycled content available. Using them eliminated
pollution from extraction of new materials, transportation and manufacturing. Additionally, it reduced the
need to dispose of the recovered materials and encouraged recycling in the industry. The following recycled
materials were used in construction: fly-ash containing concrete (use of this type of concrete diverted 126 tons
of fly-ash from becoming part of the waste stream), steel, gypsum wallboard, ceiling tiles, insulation and
hydromulch.
A high priority was placed on obtaining materials within 300 miles of the site, reducing transportation costs,
fuel consumption, and the resulting pollution. Overall, it is estimated that over 200 tons of material were saved
from ending up in landfills.

The thirty story Foley Square Federal Office Building at 290 Broadway in Lower Manhattan, uas constructed in
1995 to house several federal agencies, including the EPA Region Two Headquarters. The EPA occupies floors
fifteen through twenty-nine of this building. Other federal tenants include the Internal Revenue Service and
the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Foley Square has a total of 1,008,850 gross square feet.
Prior to its move to the new Foley Square Federal Building, Region Two Headquarters was located in the
nearby Jacob K. Javits Federal Building at 26 Federal Plaza. Space layouts there had become somewhat
fragmented over several floors as a result of agency growlh. The moye to Foley Square allowed EPA to
consolidate all of its divisions, thus leading to a more efficient use of space and improving functional
relationships among the various organizational components.
The Foley Square Building is a modern steel-framed, fireproof structure. EPA offices are served by a bank of
eight high speed elevators and two large service elevators. The typical floor plate permits open-plan uork
stations to be placed around the central core containing elevators, stairs, and restrooms, while most enclosed
offices are located towards the interior. Selected interior structural bays have been designed for heavier live
loads and allow the use of high-density files.
Region Two components located here are the Office of the Regional Administrator (ORA), the Office of the
Regional Counsel (ORC), the Communications Division (CD), the Office of Policy and Management (OPM), the
Division of I nforcement and Compliance Assurance (OECA), the Division of Environmental Planning and
Protection (DEPP), and the Emergency and Remedial Response Division (ERRD).
Foley Square also houses two headquarters field components: the Criminal Investigations Division
(CID/OECA), and the Office of the Inspector General (OIG).

rThe EPA Edison facility is a multi-use laboratory and office complex located thirty miles from New York City.
The facility supports the activities of several EPA organizations, including OSWER's National Environmental
Response Team East (ERT), ORD's Urban Watershed Management Branch, the Regional Division of
Environmental Science and Assessment, the Pesticides and Toxic Substances Program of the Regional Division
of Enforcement and Compliance Assistance and two components of the Regional Emergency and Remedial
Response Division. It also houses components of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the
Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR), the Public Health Service (PHS) and the General
Services Administration (GSA).
The Region Two lab provides comprehensive analytical support data for enforcement; compliance assistance,-
and monitoring for Superfund sites, coastal waters, several Brownfields, and three nationally recognized
estuaries in \ew York, New Jersey, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands. The facility supports emergency
response operations, Superfund removal actions, pesticide and toxic substances enforcement, lab data quality
assurance and quality control, field monitoring and sampling, and helicopter operations.
The ERT is a group of EPA technical experts who provide around-the-clock assistance at the scene of hazardous
substance releases, offering expertise in such areas as treatment, biology, chemistry, hydrology, geology, and
engineering. They support the full range of emergency response actions, including emergency incidents such
as the 9/11 terrorist attacks and the Shuttle Columbia recovery operation. In such cases, ERT brings in special
equipment and experienced responders, and provides technical assistance and advice to other Agency
responders. The ERT also maintains a laboratory at Edison that supports their national rapid response activities.
The Urban Watershed Management Branch conducts research to reduce water pollution, particularly
discharges from separate storm drainage systems and combined sewer overflows (CSO) in urban
environments. It has an extensive underground piping research installation at the facility that tests leak
detection technologies and models the hydrodynamics of urban sewer systems.
The Edison facility has been at the forefront of the Agency's response to environmental emergencies in the
metropolitan New York area. The Agency mounted its rapid response to the World Trade Center attack from
Edison. The lab's location, in the New York City Metropolitan Area and its proximity to several major highways,
allowed it to serve as a critical staging area for collaboration with multiple agencies involved in disaster
mitigation efforts. Its location and the facility's unique national and regional response expertise and laboratory
capability make it a valuable resource in the Agency's Homeland Security and counter-terrorism activities.
The facility operates in a 200 acre parcel that was once part of a major Army installation. There are nine
principal buildings and numerous trailers at the facility housing training installations, laboratories, offices,
contractor offices, and warehouses storing response equipment. The grounds of the Edison facility contain a
helicopter landing pad. an extensive underground storm water piping system used by onsite ORD researchers,
and a HazMat (Hazardous Yteterial) training area utilized as part of a national OSWER training program.

Sabine Island lies in Santa Rosa Sound, eight miles south-east of Pensacola, Florida. It is a manmade island of
sixteen and a half acres and is accessible from Santa Rosa Island via Fort Pickens Road West to Villa Sabine
Drive.
Sabine Island was born of efforts to stop the spread of yellow fever. In 1876 authorities issued an order of
ballast disposal requiring ships entering the port of Pensacola to discharge ballast and undergo fumigation.
The disposal site built up and eventually became a land mass.
By 1903 the island had stabilized and was transferred by the War Department to the Treasury Department
and left dormant until 1906 when a hurricane destroyed a nearby quarantine station. A new station was built
on the ballast island and outfitted with a hospital, an isolation hospital, caretaker's, pharmacist's and doctor's
residences, a doctor's office, fumigation shed, workshop and boathouse.
1947 brought about a transfer of the island to the Bureau of Fisheries. The island's new function was to
establish an experimental oyster farm. The Works Progress Administration and the Public Works Administration
enlarged and modified the quarantine buildings, laid walkways and built large tanks for salinity experiments.
In 1948, the Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service established a laboratory which studied cyclic
changes in animal populations and pollution effects of agricultural chemicals. In 1960, director Dr. Philip Butler
Qa\e the island the official name 'Sabine Island" for postal purposes. By 1962, the laboratory had nine
buildings, 5,000 square feet of wet laboratory working space, 1,000 square feet of storage and shop facilities, a
36-foot diesel powered work boat equipped for trawling and dredging, and several smaller boats.
In 1970, the island was turned over to the Environmental Protection Agency and its main mission became "to
bridge the gap from-ecosystem health to human health by assessing the transport of chemicals in the marine
environment and the potential transfer from the marine food web to man." A new wet lab facility was
dedicated in 1977 to house seawater toxicology and analytical chemistry laboratories. By 1978, Sabine Island
housed ten frame and thirteen temporary buildings, which included a technical librar\ and a computer center.
This laboratory is a primary research facility of the EPA National Health and Environmental Effects Research
Laboratory, under the Office of Research and Development (ORD). Research is conducted to understand the
physical, chemical, and biological dynamics of coastal systems to assess the ecological condition of the Gulf
of Mexico,- to determine the cause(s) of affected systems,- to predict future risk to aquatic organisms,
populations, communities, and ecosystems,- and to establish criteria to protect coastal environments.
The physical plant at the Gulf Ecology Division consists of approximately fifty separate structures that vary in
age from four to ninety years. Construction ranges from temporary wood-frame to poured-in-place concrete.

an environmental modeling and scientific data visualization laboratorv
Built with "Green" in mind, the NCC was designed and constructed to use approximately 40 percent less energy
than a typical, code-compliant computing and office facility. Atop the NCC rests a 100-kilowatt solar roof,
comprised of 2,185 tiles, that provides the energy to satisfy the NCC's lighting load, while producing zero
pollution. High-efficiency fluorescent lighting is used throughout the facility and motion sensors mounted on
the ceiling turn lights off when an area is vacant. The building is situated with the broadest face of the Center
lobby facing south, which helps moderate seasonal fluctuations in solar radiation. This orientation, coupled
with heat-absorbing floor tiles, enables the facility to harvest "free heating" in the winter as the radiation that is
absorbed by the tiles is re-emitted.

Researchers at the Reproductive Toxicology lab conduct and manage biological research on the effects of
environmental pollutants, singly or in combination, on all stages of the life cycle. The research identifies and
quantifies effects using the appropriate biological systems as models to provide data needed by the Agency
for the assessment of potential hazards to humans resulting from exposure to various
environmental pollutants. The chemical agents under investigation include toxic
substances, pesticides, air pollutants, drinking water contaminants, and hazardous
wastes. Biological indices for assessing damage include germ cell physiology, morphology
and function, reproductive development and function, endocrine function related to reproduction and
teratogenesis. Major research emphasis is on the development of new and improved methodologies for the
assessment of male and female reproductive toxicity, embryo and fetal toxicity, and postnatal functional
deficits.
The research generated by this lab contributes to the improved interpretation of toxicological data, the
development of guidelines for the safe usage of pesticides and toxics (chemical and biological), management
of hazardous waste, establishment of safe drinking water criteria as well as construction of biologically-based
dose response models for reproductive and developmental toxicology that will provide scientifically sounder
risk assessments with reduced uncertainties.

Research Center (AWBERC) is a state-of-the-art research facility . offjce of CM| Rl!3hts (AO)
situated on twenty-two acres, five miles north of downtown
Cincinnati, Ohio. EPA's second largest research and development facility is internationally recognized for water
research and has become a leader in bioremediation and pollution prevention. AWBERC supports EPA's efforts
to educate the public on the environment, emergency response training and other established programs.
The Cincinnati Center consists of three buildings, with a fourth under construction. The main facility was
constructed on a planning module of ten feet by twenty-three feet which provides laboratories with the
flexibility to expand and contract as mission requirements change. The service core is
located in the center with offices and laboratories accommodated in two nine-story
v\ings radiating from the core. The auditorium, cafeteria and conference rooms are
located on two of the lower levels. A library and a computer room are also located here.
The containment facility is adjacent to the main research facility. It is a 7,000 square foot, self contained facility,
equipped with state-of-the-art security, fire protection, waste containment and disposal systems. Mechanical
systems monitor and treat exhaust air before discharge. The child care facility is located nearby at the
intersection of Bishop and Nixon Streets. Its 5,200 square feet of space houses staff offices, kitchens, lounges,
and classrooms for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. Each classroom has access to outside playgrounds.
A new 22,000 square foot research support addition is currently under construction and will be finished in the
fall of 2004. It will house ORD's National Center for Environmental Assessment. The annex will consist of
offices and conference rooms and will house fifty employees.
The AWBERC building systems, particularly the HVAC system, have exceeded their life expectancy of thirty
years. An Engineering/Energy Master Plan was developed to identify strategies to replace the aged and
deteriorating systems with a state-of-the-art, flexible, secure and energy efficient building infrastructure.
Specific items identified in the plan include duct leakage problems, lack of redundancy, and outdated
constant volume auxiliary air fume hoods. The replacement of the cooling towers, air handling units, exhaust
fans, fume hoods and ductwork will be accomplished over a six year period. One air handling unit will be
replaced per construction phase resulting in partial building shutdowns for approximately four to six months.
This effort is currently in the design phase with the replacement of the cooling towers planned for FY2004.
Additional office swing space is required to relocate occupants before construction begins. In anticipation of
the work on the first air handler occurring in FY2006, a second research support addition is currently under
design and will be constructed in FY2005. Once the AWBERC infrastructure improvements are completed, this
annex will provide for added programs and maximize the amount of lab space in the main building by
accommodating the office functions. This addition will be approximately 25,400 square feet and will be
located adjacent to the annex currently under construction. „

fifteen- acre site, provides approximately 112,745 usable square feet in a main, high bay building and three
office wings (two original and a third wing added in 1976).
The lab building was initially leased from the State of Michigan between 1971 and 1991, after which it was
purchased by the Agency. Although the physical plant has evolved to respond to EPA mission needs,
significant portions of the building infrastructure have become obsolete or are at the end of their useful life.
The Agency's first Energy Saving Performance Contract (ESPC) was put in place here in mid-1998 and has
helped replace aging and inefficient major building systems with modern, energy-efficient, integrated
systems controlled by a direct digital control system (DDC). The master plan under development calls for
other phased improvements to the building, site and infrastructure.
\\ FEL is the primary EPA research laboratory for fuel and emissions testing. Work in this lab supports OAR's
Office of Transportation and Air Quality's (OTAQ) efforts to establish and enforce emission standards for
motor vehicles, engines and fuels as well as the development of automotive technology.
OTAQ has five divisions located in two buildings in Ann Arbor and two buildings in Washington, DC. They are

The office building was designed to maximize natural lighting in all areas of the
building. The ratio of windows to walls is more than forty percent and additional natural
light is provided through skylights and a large clerestory. All of the offices, conference and
meeting rooms have wide, floor-to-ceiling "sidelights" (glass panels near the doors) to enhance light
distribution. Green Lights with automatic dimmers and occupancy sensors have been installed throughout,
using indirect lighting fixtures to prevent computer screen glare and create a more pleasant environment.
Air quality has been addressed in lease clauses limiting the levels of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and
formaldehyde. Carpeting was tested and approved by EPA and carpet backing and adhesives met EPA
specifications for volatile organic compound emissions, stability and toxicity potential. All photocopy rooms
and restrooms exhaust directly to the outside. An FM200 (replacement for ozone-depleting Halon) fire

and predict the present and future effects of biotic and abiotic stressors on freshwater ecological resources
\\ith kn< >w n certainty in support of short- and long-term management goals. The laboratory is located on a
three-acre parcel and contains the main laboratory building and several support buildings.
Grosse lie began its life of government serv ice in 1926 when the Olds Farm (encompassin
most of the southern-most portion of Grosse lie) was purchased by the Navy. A hangar
and landing field was built to facilitate construction of an all-metal airship. In the ensuing
years, a seaplane base and a combination hangar-administration building were also
constructed. In 1929, the ZMC-2, the world's first metal-clad airship, was completed.
In the 1930s, the state of Michigan leased the entire 375 acres of the base from the federal government and
made many improvements, including the addition of buildings for military personnel. When World War II
broke out in 1939, Grosse lie's training program increased to over 1,000 cadets (including future President,
George H. W. Bush) per month and was also used to train over 1,800 British cadets. The \au property was
expanded to 604 acres and construction activity greatly increased. By the end of the war in 1945, all land on
which the Grosse He Naval Air Station rested became Naval property.
In 1955, the Army installed a NIKE-AJAX guided missile base and underground missile silos on the property, but
by 1962 the base was declared obsolete and decommissioned. The Grosse lie US Naval Air Station was closed
in 1969.
The property retained by the federal government was occupied by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
in 1970. In addition to the main compound and laboratory, the site also has a remote forty-acre undeveloped
parcel of land containing a quarry pool and marshland (formerly the NIKE-AJAX site, demolition and restoration
of which was completed by the Department of Defense in 1993).
Co-located with ORD is the Response Section One of the Emergency and Enforcement Branch of Region Five's
Superfund Division, the Criminal Investigation Division of the Office of Enforcement and Compliance

The Region Six En\ ironmental Spr\ices Branch Laboratory, located in Houston, provides environmental
analytical services for regional programs, and serves as the source of scientific expertise and prestige foi i S
[ n\ ironmental Protection Agency (EPA) national and regional regulatory and executive decisions. It provides
quality assured analytical support using state-of-the-art techniques and methodology for organic, inorganic.
and biological analyses. Laboratory personnel also perform evaluations and audits of environmental
monitoring laboratories and public water supply laboratories. Management of the Regional Contract
Laboratory Program, including sample scheduling, sample routing, data verification, data validation and data
usability, are responsibilities of the laboratory. Technical expertise is provided to the region, and to other
federal, state, tribal and local entities. Expert \\itness support is provided for both civil and criminal
enforcement cases.
The fast pace of emerging technologies and science requires that the laboratory stay at the forefront of new
analytical procedures. The original Houston Laboratory consisted of several mobile buildings located near
the Houston Ship Channel. This operation was established as a result of an enforcement conference
conducted in 1970 and 1971 under the terms of the LS Army Corps of Engineers Refuse Act Program. A
permanent facility was constructed and occupied by EPA in June of 1972. This facility was designed to
handle the classical water quality parameters, such as biological oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen
demand (COD), total organic carbon (TOO, nutrients, metals, total and fecal coliform, pesticides, oil and
grease and bioassa\ s.
As en\ ironmental programs evolved into addressing toxic and hazardous wastes, the requirements for regional
laboratory support experienced significant changes. The nature of the samples was becoming more
hazardous, thereby requiring specialized handling and newer and more sophisticated analytical
instrumentation. Due to the age and design of the existing facility, and the need to provide a safe working
emironment for employees, EPA started planning for a new lab in 1988.

In June 1999, Region Seven moved into the new 203,475 rentable square foot Kansas City Regional Office. This
award winning building features a dramatic four-story light filled atrium with spectacular views of the Kansas
City, Missouri skyline. The building is a result of a successful partnership between the City of Kansas City,
Kansas, who donated the site for the building, US General Services Administration, who served as a willing
partner in delivering a quality and environmentally sensitive building, and EPA.
The five-story building has an extensive number of sustainable design features. Among those are numerous
passive solar design features, including extensive day lighting, sun screens that reflect light into the building
and provide shade from the intense summer sun, and smaller windows on the west side that minimize heat
gain on hot summer afternoons. Materials used in the building are environmentally friendly. Coal fly ash
makes up a significant portion of the large concrete auger pile foundation system. Building insulation,
structural steel and glazing are made with up to sixty percent recycled materials. Tenant finish materials
include vinyl composition tile, acoustical ceiling tiles, carpet and ceramic tiles with above average recycled
content. High efficiency indirect lighting and motion sensors improve the energy efficiency of the building.
This building won a GSA "Build Green" award in 1999 and an EPA Gold Medal for Sustainable Development in
2000. The unique design of the building, with its U-shaped floors and tree filled center
court provides a beautiful, functional, and exciting new office space for EPA Region
Seven.

The twenty year lease for this build-to-suit facility was awarded as a design-build contract in August 2000 and
the Kansas City Science & Technology Center officially opened on May 9. 2003. This 72,000 square foot lab is
the result of another successful partnership of the City of Kansas City, Kansas, who donated the site, the US
General Services Administration, the EPA Facilities Management and Services Division, and EPA Region Seven.
On August 4, 2003, the Kansas City Science and Technology Center received LEED™ (Leadership in Energy and
Environmental Design) 2.0 Gold certification for including attributes such as daylighting, low-flow plumbing
fixtures, and wood products from certified sustainable sources in the building design. LEED™ is a green
building rating system developed by the US Green Building Council.
Extensive energy modeling was performed on the design drawings and recommendations for economical
energy conservation measures and design changes were made, including zoned carbon dioxide sensors,
plate-frame heat exchange recovery, and a variable-frequency-drive chiller.
A unique rooftop rainwater recovery system captures and filters rainwater for use in flushing toilets; it cuts
treated domestic water use by approximately fifty percent and reduces site runoff by forty percent. Since the
rainwater recovery system collects more water than needed for the toilets, the excess is used to provide
make-up water for the building's cooling towers. The estimated savings from this unique system is 735,000
gallons per year per LEED™ documentation.
The Solicitation for Offers (SFO) for this facility included green language to ensure that the facility and all its
construction features promote energy efficiency and environmentally preferable materials and design. The
SFO encouraged contractors to address energy and water conservation and other environmental factors.

Regional offices for Region Ten are located in the high-rise Park Place Building in downtown Seattle. The
building is approximately thirty years old, and is considered to be in good condition. The structure is reinforced
concrete clearly delineated in the exterior facade which is exposed concrete and glass. A child care center and
a fitness center are shared with three other federal agencies in this government-leased facility.
Region Ten saw a planned remodeling of its executive offices as a unique opportunity to provide leadership to
'ederal community and the private design and building communiK b\ creating a showcase for "green
traction" using environmentally responsible practices and materials.
The executive suite, as originally designed, featured over-sized offices, a dark paneled interior space that
housed the administrative staff, old furniture and had no cohesive functional system of storage. A new design
for the suite reduced it to 1,930 square feet and the executive offices to 225 square feet each, and includes a
well-used conference room, more informal meeting space and daylight and outside views for the
administrative staff.
With this project EPA demonstrated several innovative practices that reflect the Agency's increasing focus on
sustainability:
» using certified wood products,-
* selecting resource efficient materials,-
» minimizing construction and demolition waste,- and
» designing sustainable space.

Environmental Effects Research Laboratory (ORD)
The Coastal Ecology Branch (CEB) is the marine research group for the Western Ecology Division, a part of the
National Health and Environmental Effects Research Laboratory. CEB is housed in a state-of-the-art laboratory
building on the grounds of the Hatfield Marine Science Center of Oregon State University in Newport,
Oregon. An ideal physical setting for research on marine and estuarine ecosystems, the facility is located on
the shore of Yaquina Bay and consists of a main laboratory and office building, a support and storage
building, a hazardous waste building and a seawater holding tank.
Wet laboratories equipped with flow-through seawater systems are available for a wide variety of experiments.
Unique, specialized treatment facilities onsite allow experiments to be safely conducted on important regional
and national environmental issues, including tests involving exotic species and acute and chronic exposures of
marine organisms to pollutants. Highly sophisticated analytical laboratory facilities provide capabilities for lou-
level analysis of organic pollutants, metals, and natural products from field and laboratory samples.
Adjacent facilities on the Hatfield \\arine Science Center campus include research laboratories operated by
Oregon State University, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, National \Aarine Fisheries Service, and the US Fish and Wildlife Service. This concentration of
marine research organizations provides an unparalleled opportunity for collaborative research on national
environmental problems, and EPA scientists interact with their colleagues to further scientific achievement in a
variety of ways. The CEB is the only EPA laboratory whose primary role is conducting marine research on the
west coast of the United States. It is the only EPA ORD research facility that deals specifically with marine
environmental research issues of the Pacific coast from California to Alaska, as well as for Hawaii and the
Pacific island trust territories.
In the past, CEB research has made outstanding contributions to dealing with the problem of chemically
contaminated sediments in US coastal waters. Current research at CEB has its central focus on the effects of
multiple stressors associated with human population growth on the habitats and species of the estuarine
systems of the Pacific Northwest. CEB research scientists are also contributing to regional scale studies of the
condition of nearshore ecosystems of the Southern California Bight.
The Coastal Ecology Branch employs sixteen EPA scientists and support staff and additional contract
personnel who provide facilities maintenance, technical and data processing support. The total laboratory
budget represents approximately a two million dollar annual contribution to the local economy.
