It is prescribed by MIL-STD 3007 and applies to Military Departments, Defense Agencies, and DoD Field Activities [UFC 1-200-02 Foreword]. Key requirements include: 1. Energy Optimization & LCCA: Chapter 4 requires execution of Life-Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) following the NIST Handbook process. Deviations that decrease energy efficiency are not acceptable, and LCCA must be refined at each design submittal and during construction if significant system changes occur [UFC 1-200-02 Ch 4]. 2. Risk Management: Projects must identify risk factors and implement associated design solutions responsive to Government-provided projections and acceptable risk determinations, typically established in the planning process [UFC 1-200-02 para 3-7]. 3. Landscape Irrigation: Potable water use for new landscaping irrigation is prohibited except during plant establishment, with drought-resistant and xeriscaping design required for all new and updated landscape work [AFI 32-6000 para 11.20.2.1]. 4.
