Air Force - CTP2 Environmental Management - OverviewOverview: MELE’s work at Brooks City-Base comprises over $20 million during the past 10 years, including 23 task orders on one contract alone. MELE provides technical support in computer programming, database maintenance, and web-based system development and maintenance including the creation and implementation of the “Compliance Through Pollution Prevention” concept and the CTP2 tool which is a web-based environmental management tool built in Oracle 9i housing environmental data from Air Force installations nationwide that allows management of information to determine optimal uses for targeted funding in environmental management.
At the request of the Air Force Materiel Command (AFMC), MELE, in concert with AFMC, has developed an innovative environmental management strategy to use limited pollution prevention funding to the greatest benefit possible to reduce environmental compliance cost and risk. That strategy, Compliance Through Pollution Prevention, or CTP2, has become the standard for the Air Force.
To make CTP2 part of daily operations at each AFMC installation, MELE proposed to transform the CTP2 business practices to a Milnet-based platform that could be accessed daily from each installation. The application is known as the AFMC CTP2 Management Action Plan (MAP). Installation level personnel would maintain the information in the database and provide a real-time picture of the pollution prevention level of effort at their installation. Headquarters personnel could look down and use information in the CTP2 MAP for long-term planning at the Command level.
The CTP2 MAP is Oracle 9i compatible and will become the pollution prevention module for the Air Force Civil Engineer’s overall management structure in ACES. CTP2 is fully compliant with Air Force Instructions on Operation Risk Management (ORM) and has been used at approximately 18,000 sites at 12 AFMC installations. MELE also serves as the technical advisor in technology needs identification, prioritization, and resolution, keeping a Joint Service (JCALS) perspective.
