## Navy Water Program

**  ****Managed by installation Energy Managers**
**  ****Projects development and oversight by the same****  team that manages energy projects**
**  ****Water goals, as established by FEMP, are to implement four best management plans (BMPs), establish water conservation plans and reduce overall water consumption.**

##   Question:
How much water does the Department of Navy consume annually?

45 Billion Gallons

**How much water does the Department of Navy consume annually?**
**45 Billion Gallons**

**Navy Water Program**

## Navy Water Program

- We’re down over 3 billion gallons since FY2000!

## Navy Water Program  

**  ****Energy and water projects in the Navy are ranked based on value to the Navy.**
**  ****For water projects, the metric used to judge the value to the Navy is:**
** ****KGALS saved / $1,000 of investment**
**  ****I have seen projects range from under 1.00 to as much as 121.6**

## Navy Water Program - Projects 

**Project Development**
- Navy guidance on project development can be found on-line at:
- _[https://energy.navy.mil](https://energy.navy.mil/)_
**  **Select “Progress / Data / Projects,”  Then select either “ESPC” or “UESC” – and you will see a link to the “Project Guide.”
-   It takes awhile to download so, please be patient.

## Navy Water Program - Projects  

- Navy Guide will provide insight into Project development from a Navy standpoint.
- The guide includes some water consumption parameters to use in baseline calculations.
- Please remember that water is different from every other utility in two major ways:
- You have to dispose of water, and
- Water is occupancy dependent, not operationally dependent.

## Project Example #1  (Awareness)

**NADEP Cherry Point North Carolina**
- NADEP had a once through cooling system with a heavy/constant water demand.
- NADEP, working with their local utility, financed the installation of a cooling tower.
- NADEP was trying for years to get a cooling tower installed, but were only looking at the energy aspects of the cooling tower (and maintenance savings) not water.
- Vital Statistics:
- $500K Cost,  Payback < 1 month, 110 MGAL in savings

## Project Example #2  (Simplicity)

**  ****NAS Lemoore California**
**NAS Lemoore, keeping it simple, simply implemented an irrigation control project, bundled with several other energy ECMs.**
**Vital Statistics:**
**	****$5M cost, $700K annual savings, 100 MGAL of water saved.**

## Project Example #3  (Complex)

**NAVSTA Norfolk Virginia**
- NAVSTA Norfolk submitted a project to utilize their treated effluent from a superfund cleanup site to provide 10% - 15% of their make up water for their steam plant.
- As a result of this project, the installation is already looking for other ways to supplement their make up requirements – sewage effluent, purchased effluent, and condensate recovery.  They are also considering repeating this at other steam plants in the area.
- Vital Statistics:
- 56.4 KGAL/$1K ranking – making it #2 on for FY2006 ECIP funding.

## Project Example #4 (Simplicity #2)

**MCB Camp Pendleton California **
- While it’s not fancy or exciting – low flow fixtures can still provide quite a return.
- MCB Camp Pendleton bundled low flow water fixtures into a UESC project in FY2003.
- Vital Statistics:
- 37 MGAL saved.
