This Air Force Instruction (AFI) implements Air Force Policy Directive (AFPD) 32-70,
Environmental Considerations in Air Force Programs and Activities and AFPD 90-8,
Environment, Safety, and Occupational Health Management and Risk Management. It formalizes
environmental processes consistent with expectations of Executive Order (EO) 13834, Efficient
Federal Operations. The instruction also clarifies tasks in this AFI as it applies to overseas
installations established in Department of Defense Instruction (DoDI) 4715.05, Environmental
Compliance at Installations Outside the United States. This Instruction establishes the framework
for an organizational-level Environmental Management System (EMS) at Headquarters Air Force
(HAF), the Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC), and Air Force (AF) installations. Unless
otherwise noted, the guidance and procedures outlined in this Instruction applies to all AF
installations and activities located in and outside of the United States (US). This publication applies
to the Regular Air Force (RegAF) as well as the Air Force (AF) Reserve Components. It does not
apply directly, however, to contingency (e.g., non-enduring) locations outside the US, but is a good
source for non-directive information. Additionally, this Instruction applies to the Air National
Guard (ANG) and Primary Subordinate Units (PSUs) not located on AF installations. This
instruction also applies to Government-Owned, Contractor Operated facilities, Direct Reporting
Units, Air Force Reserve (AFR) units/bases, and PSUs, to the extent their activities are not covered
by the host installation, organization, or facility’s EMS (if any). Ensure all records created as a
result of processes prescribed in this publication are maintained in accordance with Air Force
Manual (AFMAN) 33-363, Management of Records, and disposed of in accordance with the Air
