3.  **Programmatic Funding**

> ![](media/image4.wmf)

![](media/image5.wmf)**4. Age of Space**--*is the age of building space
by gross square feet (gsf).* Seventy-nine percent of the ORNL building
space is over 30 years old with fifty-five percent being over 40 years
of age.

![](media/image6.wmf)**5. Real Property Maintenance --** *Actual
maintenance is all real property maintenance activities regardless of
funding source (indirect, operating or capital funding). Required
maintenance is the estimate of all costs to perform maintenance
activities deemed necessary by engineering and life-cycle studies.
Actual and Required maintenance have declined from FY 99 to FY 01. The
Maintenance Investment Index (total maintenance divided by replacement
plant value) based on FY 2001 FIMS Actual Maintenance data is .28%; the
corporate benchmark is 2% to 4%. Deferred maintenance is maintenance
that was planned but was postponed to a future period due to lack of
funds. Deferred maintenance is increasing, reflecting lack of
maintenance and capital investment however, the deferred maintenance is
substantially less than the \$389M of GPP/GPE and line items identified
in the FY 2002 Strategic Facilities Plan as needed for modernization.*

**6. Building Condition Index (BCI) --** *indicates the condition of
space in buildings. BCI is calculated on a building-by-building basis,
as Total Deferred Maintenance as a percentage of Replacement Plant Value
(RPV). Buildings with a low BCI (i.e., low deferred maintenance) are
rated in better condition than those with higher BCI (i.e., high
deferred maintenance) -- see chart below for quality rating for the BCI
percentages. Summary conditions are defined as follows:*

![](media/image7.wmf)*[Quality Rating]{.underline}: [Building Condition
Index Range]{.underline}:*

-   *Excellent BCI \< 2%*

-   *Good 2% ≤ BCI \< 5%*

-   *Adequate 5% ≤ BCI \<10%*

-   *Fair 10% ≤ BCI \<25%*

-   *Poor 25% ≤ BCI \<60%*

-   *Fail BCI ≥ 60%*

ORNL's Facility Condition Index for all facilities is 1.3%, which would
indicate that the facilities are in Excellent overall condition. Based
on the large number of infrastructure upgrade projects planned (\$379M),
the deferred maintenance may be underestimated.

![](media/image8.wmf)***7*. Infrastructure Investment--***is composed of
funding for line-items, GPP/GPE, excess facilities, and indirect funded
maintenance. **Line-items (LI)** fund construction of general purpose
infrastructure, such as roads, utility systems, and general purpose
buildings. **Excess facilities** funding provides for clean-up and
removal of excess buildings. **General Plant Project (GPP)** and
**General Purpose Equipment (GPE)** are funds for equipment and
infrastructure that are shared by facilities across the site. The SC
Basic Energy Sciences program provides GPP/GPE funds while the SC
Science Lab Infrastructure program funds infrastructure line items and
excess facilities. **Indirect Maintenance** is real property maintenance
that is funded by laboratory overhead. It does not include housekeeping
or grounds keeping.*

**Most Recent Line-Item Project:** *Research Support Bldg, FY 2003,
Total Estimated Cost - \$16.1M*

**8. Recapitalization Period--***is the number of years needed to fully
maintain infrastructure as it ages. It is calculated by dividing Total
Replacement Plant Value by the total amount spent on construction (the
sum of line-items and GPP/GPE).*

9.  **Third Party Facilities --** In addition to the DOE owned
    buildings, ORNL is currently in the process of design/build for over
    370,000 sf of new research and office space financed by private
    sector funds, and over 50,000 sf of office, research and distance
    learning space financed by the State of Tennessee as part of a
    university-collaboration Joint Institute. These facilities will be
    built in the new East Campus area at ORNL, adjacent to the DOE's new
    Research Support Center. There are two future State funded
    facilities that have been committed to by the State legislature to
    be built in the FY05 and FY06 timeframe --Joint Institutes for
    Biological Science and Neutron Science respectively.
