Space Utilization and Consolidation
Space management encompasses all real
property owned or leased by DOE. The
RTBF Program is responsible for the overall
management of space. However to support
the site mission, individual facilities are
assigned to functional organizations based
on space requirements and specialized
construction. The functional organizations
are responsible for the day-to-day utilization
of their assigned buildings. Space
utilization remains high at Pantex with
space being 98.0% utilized in FY11.
Because of this high utilization, site planning
efforts are closely coordinated with plant
mission and support needs so that
operations are in facilities appropriate for
their use, and changes in facility
requirements are coordinated and
implemented in advance.
Sustainability
Pantex employs a whole building concept to
37 of 55
consider all facets of environmental and
energy sustainability. Actions and activities
for sustainability encompass the many
issues of environmental protection, pollution
prevention, resource conservation, waste
management, energy and water
management as well as the reduction of
greenhouse gases resulting from Plant
processes and the use of petroleum fuels.
Any project can be properly developed to
support sustainability, whether it is a
specific project to upgrade the efficiency of
a building’s heating, cooling, and ventilation
units; construct a new building; to replace a
roof or even to decommission and
deconstruct retired buildings. Pantex is
striving to replace finite energy sources with
sustainable and renewable wind-generated
energy and as practical, solar power.
Sustainability is a growing concept that will
drive improvements in Plant operations for
years to come.
