The United States Government Printing Office (GPO) was created in June 1860, and is an agency of the U.S. federal government based in Washington D.C. The office prints documents produced by and for the federal government, including Congress, the Supreme Court, the Executive Office of the President and other executive departments, and independent agencies. A hearing is a meeting of the Senate, House, joint or certain Government committee that is open to the public so that they can listen in on the opinions of the legislation. Hearings can also be held to explore certain topics or a current issue. It typically takes between two months up to two years to be published. This is one of those hearings.

Recent experiences in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Balkans have highlighted the importance of environmental considerations. These range from protecting soldier health and disposing of hazardous waste to building water supply systems and other activities that help achieve national goals in the post-conflict phase of contingency operations. The Army has become increasingly involved with environmental issues in every contingency operation and must be better prepared to deal with them. This study assesses whether existing policy, doctrine, and guidance adequately address environmental activities in post-conflict military operations and reconstruction. Findings are based on reviews of top-level policy and doctrine, analysis of operational experience, extensive interviews with diverse Army personnel, and a review of operational documentation and literature. From these sources, a database of 111 case studies was created. The research showed that environmental concerns can have far-reaching and significant impacts on the Army, both direct and indirect, especially in terms of cost, current operations, soldier health, diplomatic relations, reconstruction activities, and the ultimate success of the operation or the broader mission. Some evidence suggests that environmental problems may have even contributed to insurgency in Iraq. Recommendations include updating current policy and doctrine to fully address environmental considerations in contingency operations; ensuring that contractors are carefully selected and managed; and transmitting proactive field environmental practices and lessons throughout the Army.

DoD environmental concerns may be divided into two broad categories: (1) those which impact training, logistics, and combat operations; and (2) those which have cost impacts on the supporting infrastructure. In either case, these concerns can have negative impacts on the Department's ability to perform its primary mission of maintaining military readiness for national defense. SERDP strives to minimize or eliminate major negative impacts of environmental concerns or requirements on DoD's ability to conduct this mission. Current DoD costs of environmental compliance, cleanup, and conservation are significant. Development and application of innovative environmental technologies will reduce costs, environmental risks, and/or time required to resolve environmental problems in these areas while simultaneously enhancing safety and health. Equally important, the development and application of innovative pollution prevention technologies serves to reduce or eliminate waste problems before they occur. Thus, SERDP is improving mission readiness through environmental research by: Accelerating cost effective cleanup of contaminated Defense sites; Facilitating full compliance with environmental laws and regulations at reduced cost; Enhancing training, testing, and operational readiness through prudent land management and conservation measures; and Reducing or eliminating Defense industrial waste streams through aggressive pollution prevention.

When first established decades ago, most U.S. military installations were far from major cities and towns. That is no longer true. A growing population and changing land development patterns over the past several decades have led to lands vital to military readiness being surrounded by urban, suburban, and other types of development. Such development, especially large residential tracts, can limit the installation's operational capability. Complaints about noise, dust, and smoke from aircraft, weapons, and vehicles force commanders to curtail training of certain types or during certain hours. As development destroys or displaces native species of plants and animals, military posts become their critical refuge, and their presence further restricts military operations. These constraints have been so severe in some cases that installations have had to close. Such pressures are called encroachment. Encroachment can be defined as issues external to military operations that affect military installation testing, training, and other operations and overall military readiness. Recognizing the gravity of the problem, Congress provided legislative authority to allow military departments to partner with government or private organizations to establish buffer areas near training and testing areas. The Office of the Secretary of Defense(OSD) created the Conservation Partnering Program (now known as the Readiness and Environmental Protection Initiative (REPI)2) to implement this authority.
