NOTICE
The Federal Facilities Council (FFC) is a continuing activity of the Board on Infrastructure and the Constructed
Environment of the National Research Council (NRC). The purpose of the FFC is to promote continuing coopera-
tion among the sponsoring federal agencies and between the agencies and other elements of the building commun-
ity in order to advance building science and technology particularly with regard to the design, construction,
acquisition, evaluation, and operation of federal facilities. The following agencies provided funding for this study:
Department of the Air Force, Office of the Civil Engineer
Department of the Air Force, Air National Guard
Department of the Army, Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management
Department of the Army, Army Corps of Engineers
Department of Defense, Federal Facilities Directorate
Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration
Department of Energy, Office of Engineering and Construction Management
Department of Energy, Office of Science
Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Coast Guard
Department of Homeland Security, Immigration and Naturalization Service
Department of the Interior, Office of Managing Risk and Public Safety
Department of the Navy, Naval Facilities Engineering Command
Department of State, Office of Overseas Buildings Operations
Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration
Department of Veterans Affairs, Office of Facilities Management
Food and Drug Administration
General Services Administration, Public Buildings Service
Indian Health Service
International Broadcasting Bureau
National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Facilities Engineering Division
National Institute of Standards and Technology, Building and Fire Research Laboratory
National Institutes of Health
National Science Foundation
Smithsonian Institution, Facilities Engineering and Operations
U.S. Postal Service, Engineering Division
As part of its activities, the FFC periodically publishes reports that have been prepared by committees of govern-
ment employees. Because these committees are not appointed by the NRC, they do not make recommendations,
and their reports are considered FFC publications rather than NRC publications.
