(a) Real property construction projects with construction costs of $750,000 or more.
(b) Community facility construction projects listed in appendix E that require NAF construction funding.
(2) The CPMC program for—
(a) Any single item, group purchase, or real property construction project costing less than $750,000 and capitalized
per DOD 7000.14, volume 13.
(b) Any project budgeted at less than $750,000 that exceeds that amount because of foreign currency exchange
fluctuations, in accordance with the annual budget guidance and instructions memorandum from FMWRC, is not
considered as major construction regardless of the final amount.
(c) Applicable elements of expense listed in appendix D.
c. AAFES construction program. Funding will be as specified in AR 60–20 and AR 60–31.

Exceptions will be approved by OSD prior to project submission in the annual program. Exception requests will be
forwarded through command channels to FMWRC at the address in paragraph 15–4 for submission to OSD.
b. Community facilities normally funded from NAFs may be funded from MCA or other APFs under the following
conditions:
(1) All of community facility construction related to the establishment, activation, or expansion of an installation or
relocation of facilities for the convenience of the Government.
(2) Replacement of facilities denied by country-to-country agreements.

(4) Antiterrorism/force protection measures required under DODI 2000.16.
(5) To correct life safety and Americans with Disabilities Act and force protection deficiencies.
c. Use of APF construction programs for construction of community facilities as a part of expansion plans will be
based on actions or events that significantly increase the permanent post population. Such expansion must be the result
of a mission change or influx of new units or systems (a 25 percent increase in a 2-year time span satisfies these
criteria). Evolutionary growth or temporary population surges over several years will be not satisfy these criteria.
15–7. Nonappropriated fund approval authority
a. NAF CPMC.
(1) The garrison commander will be the approval authority for projects less than $200,000 that have received budget
approval by the IMCOM Region director. The IMCOM Region director is the approval authority for all CPMC projects
$200,000 to $750,000. Funding increases for CPMC projects of up to 25 percent of cost and 10 percent of scope may
be approved by the IMCOM Regional Director if change is necessitated by factors beyond installation control. Further
delegation of these approval authorities is not authorized.
(2) Annually, OSD provides to the Congress a list of all construction projects included in the FY CPMC program.
To ensure all projects are reported to OSD, FMWRC requires an information copy of the DD Form 1391 (Military
Construction Project Data) upon approval by the IMCOM Region director. FMWRC will then forward the copy to the
Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Installations and Housing).
(3) Any subsequent additions, deletions, deferments, or modifications on CPMC projects will be reported to
FMWRC.
(4) Incremental or phased construction projects will be approved based on the final total cost. For example, a phased
project of 3 years at $300,000 per year is approved as a NAFMC project for a total of $900,000 before starting
construction on any phase.
