Annex B, AEI for BUP
First Edition
b. Typical/Repeated Site Adaption. Once the BUP generic standard design package has
been used for an individual facility at a given installation, that design (design and construction
documentation) will become the standard design for all subsequent applications. Subsequent uses
of the standard design drawings will be site adaptations, requiring only modifications for scope,
and size. Revisions approved and implemented for the basic BUP generic standard design
package, may be incorporated into these installation standard design drawings, as appropriate at
that particular Army installation.
c. Waiver From the Use of a BUP Generic Standard Design Package. There may be
circumstances where the use of a BUP generic standard design package could be inappropriate for
an individual facility. In such cases, a request for waiving the use of the BUP generic standard
design package will be submitted by the installation, through the MACOM, to the OACSIM (with
an information copy to HQUSACE (CEMP-EA)) for review. The installation is responsible for
preparing this submittal such that it clearly documents the rationale for the waiver request, and
submitting the request through the MACOM for which the facility is programmed. See Chapter
2, Paragraphs 6.j and 6.k for standard and optional features.
(1) A request for waiver will follow a standard format. The initiator of the request will
identify the following:
(a) The functional and operational requirements of the facility for which the BUP
generic standard design package is not, or cannot be made, responsive.
(b) The required feature(s) of the BUP generic standard design package that is (are)
nonresponsive to each of the identified facility requirements.
(c) A description of the incompatibility between each of the identified facility
requirements and the affected required feature(s) of the BUP generic standard design package.
(d) The estimated construction cost impact of the waiver.
(2) The OACSIM may seek input from HQUSACE, CESWF, the geographic district
designing the actual project, or the users of the individual facility. Upon review of the request and
coordination with the MACOM that programmed the facility and HQUSACE, the OACSIM will
approve or disapprove the waiver request.
6. DESIGN CRITERIA AND SPECIAL TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS. Designs
should comply with the AEI, Design Criteria and pertinent regulations, including AR 415-15.
Additionally, for utility systems, designs should comply with all applicable regulations, including
AR 420-46, AR 420-47, and AR 420-49. For energy related issues refer to Federal Regulation 10
2-5
