2. 2 Areas of Experience Areas of Experience Green Procurement Thin Client Implementation Continuity of Operations Electronics End of Life

3. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 3 Procurement Process Procurement Process Requestor –Determine AP-BioPreferred Status –Suggest vendors and products SAP –Purchase Request Keyword screening –Purchase Order Keyword screening and coding

4. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 4 Procurement Process Procurement Process Buyer –Find appropriate items –Issue Purchase Order Environmental Compliance Specialist –SAP and SharePoint Monthly report Annual report

5. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 5 Thin Client Implementation Thin Client Implementation Information Technology (IT) reliance: growing in the workplace Increasing IT systems management challenges Increased Cyber Security and continual upgrades Enhances in meeting Executive Order 13423 energy and waste reduction goals

6. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 6 Personal Computer v Thin Client

7. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 7 Energy Savings Energy Savings Typical Desktop PC Workstation 200 – 300 watts (W) of electricity per computer SPR previously assigned ~800 PCs draws 160,000W – 240,000W Thin Client (TC) Workstation ~15 watts of electricity SPR current assignment ~600 TCs draws 12,000W Savings Realized: ~235W TC 188,000W / SPR 800 TC

8. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 8 Functional Improvements Functional Improvements TCs transmit keystrokes and mouse clicks to a server

9. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 9 Waste Reduction Waste Reduction Computer Hardware Replacement Parts and Services Once obsolete and replaced, SPR departments challenge keeping potentially hazardous scrap out of the landfill

10. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 10 Benefits Benefits Thin Client Differences - Thin Client devices (supported by Citrix) Consume less energy Last longer than traditional PCs, and Have fewer parts to recycle or landfill Less complicated for telecommuting Cyber Security is enhanced SPR hot site enhancements (mobility for emergency or contingency operations)

11. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 11 Continuity of Operations Continuity of Operations SPR is the U.S. insurance policy in the event of oil supply interruption from natural or man-made interruptions Texas is home to 26 refineries that account for one-fourth of U.S. refining capacity SPR Big Hill site is about 50 miles NE of Baytown, TX SPR Bryan Mound site is about 60 miles SSW of Baytown, TX

12. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 12 Hurricanes Gustav & Ike Hurricanes Gustav & Ike GALVESTON

13. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 13 SPR COOP Objectives SPR COOP Objectives Maintain Safety of all Personnel Remain Drawdown Ready Restore Power to Site (Power Outages) Protect and Maintain all Government Assets & the environment Assess damage, maintain accurate records Restore site to normal operations as quickly as possible

14. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 14 SPR Alternate Emergency Operations Center (EOC) SPR Alternate Emergency Operations Center (EOC)

15. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 15 During Hurricane Ike During Hurricane Ike Established as an Incident in WebEOC on September 8, 2008 OCC was able to monitor all site activities real-time Alternate EOC set up in LaGrange WebEOC updates are still possible –Team Members were able to keep status of all sites and all activities remotely from their hotel rooms

16. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 16 HURRICANES GUSTAV & IKE Strategic Petroleum Reserve HURRICANES GUSTAV & IKE Strategic Petroleum Reserve Hurricane checklists are put into WebEOC as files in the library and can be accessed by links from this menu The checklists can be filled out by specified personnel / location and then submitted as an attachment to Activity Log Quick access to local weather forecasts are available from this links menu The DOE HQ Emergency Operations Center in Washington, D.C. was posting information for our use directly in our WebEOC – MapTAC library

17. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 17 DOE Strategic Petroleum Reserve Awards FY 2007 – Electronics Reuse Recycle Campaign (ERRC) FY 2008 – GSA Computer for Learning (CFL) FY 2009 – Federal Electronic Challenge (FEC), Silver Level Award

18. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 18 Electronics End of Life DOE/SPR M&O contractor elected to utilize the Computer for Learning Program (CFL) Identify, clean, sanitize, verify computers Computer units were grouped, shipped with donation documentation

19. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 19 SPR and CFL On-line registration of schools No transportation cost to the SPR The DOE/SPR and the M&O Contractor donated a total of 371 computer units to 23 local area schools The CFL program supported the rebuilding/reopening of the local area schools educational programs The Orleans Parish School Board provided the SPR an award thanking them for their donations as well as their overall support to the educational programs in the New Orleans area

20. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 20 Reuse/Recycling Benefits FROM THISTO THIS

21. 2009 OFEE Environmental Symposium East 21 SPR and CFL The Office of the Federal Environmental Executive honored the Strategic Petroleum Reserve for outstanding federal electronics stewardship of donated and recycle excess or surplus electronics through the Electronics Reuse and Recycling Campaign (ERRC).
