Abstract:

Federal, state and local environmental regulators have not recognized the significant progress that the Army has made in its effort to achieve environmental excellence. The regulators do not understand our organization, or problems, or our intentions. They do, however, recognize achievements in the private sector. Environmentally successful businesses have organized to achieve excellence and to effectively communicate their accomplishments to the regulators. Comparison of Army environmental strategy to that of industry in America reveals striking similarities. This comparison also reveals significant weakness in the Armys organizational structure. The goal of this study is to examine the formula for success form the point of view of the regulating community and to compare Army strategy to private sector strategy. The result will be a recommendation for enhancing the Army team so that success in pollution control and environmental restoration can be both achieved and communicated.
