Environmental and Community Priorities
Fort Eustis has three EMS functional teams working in the areas of land management and training support; procurement; and quality of life/infrastructure. Activities for 2006 include: managing invasive species; addressing electronic waste; increasing solid waste diversion; obtaining access to E85; reducing water consumption; and improving energy conservation. |

Benefits of V-REMS Involvement
V-REMS provides an excellent opportunity for information exchange and to establish partnerships that advance our mutual interests. Because of V-REMS, Fort Eustis has joined the Hampton Roads Clean Cities Coalition and other V-REMS partners in identifying E85 sources and future pump locations. Through V-REMS, Fort Eustis has been able to identify resources that will enhance and improve installation EMS/environmental initiatives. For example, arrangements are in progress for installation project personnel to tour the CarMax facility and learn more about LEED standards. |
