AB5TRACT - ---

This manual describes a functionally structured public. works organization which can effectively carry-out public works functions employing the standard public works management systems described in NAVFAC MO-321 (Facilities Management), NAVFAC P-930 (Navy Family Housing Manual), NAVFAC P-300 (Management of Transportation Equipment), and NJYPAC P-307 Series (Transportation Management Manuals). Span of control, lines cf communication, organizational flexibility, and the wide range in size and type of naval shore activities are considered. Of necessity, the exact Public Works Department (PWD) organizational pattern at individual shore activities will be influenced by such factors as the size and scope of public works operations, the extent to which public works services are obtained from commercial sources, and the activity mission.

FGREWGRD ----

This publicatior presents standards for organization and staffing of Public Works Departmcn?s that the v;.val Facilities Engfneering Command (NAVFACENGCOM) have found to be the most effective for management, operation, and maintenance of facilities and equipment. This publication supersedes NAVFAC P-318, dated hpril 1977.

Application of the principles, procedures, and techniques of the public works management systems is most effective when the assignment of authority and responsibility is made in accordance with the basic organization patterns described in this publication.

These standards are furnished to the Commands and Offices exercising management control, the Commanding Officer, the Public Works Officer, and other persons concerned with the administration and operation of Public Works Departments.

Two significant changes have been made to this revision of NAVFAC P-318.

a. The use of Facilities Support Contracts for public works services has significantly increased in the last few years. This has resulted from greater emphasis on the Commercial Activities (CA) Program, increased work requirements without additional personnel resources, and the need for specialized skills to operate and maintain more complex facilities and equipment. This shift in the way work is accomplished affects Public Works Department organization. Activities with a moderate percentage of work performed by contract should consider the formation of a Facilities Support Contracts Division. Those activities with all or nearly all work performed by contract should consider the alternate organization described in Chapter 4 of this manual.

b. The need for improved effectiveness and economy in facilities management has required changes to the Maintenance Control Division (MCD). The division has been renamed the Facilities .Management Engineering Division (FMED) and responsibilities have been redefined to put more emphasis on resource management vice work force management, and on long range planning, quality assurance, and productivity. Material management responsibilities, for material within the department, has been assigned to the FMED.

A final item worth noting is the Base Engineering Support, Technical (BEST) system which has been developed to automate the standard Public Works Management process. BEST minicomputer sub-systems have been developed to support Facilities Management Engineering, Utilities, Housing, and Transportation functions. Installation of the BEST systems will provide the means to improve performance, but does not require organizational changes.

Recommendations or comments concerning this publication are Invited and should be submitted to: Commander, Naval Facilities Engineering Command (Attn: Code lOOl>, 200 Stovall Street, Alexandria, VA 22332.

CHAPTER 1 GENERAL

f

1.1 PURPOSE. This publication is a guide for the establishment and operation of uniform Public Works Department (PWD) organizations. This organizational guidance will help accomplish the management and operation of public works using government forces and contractors.

1.2 SCOPE. Organizational patterns and functions described in this publication apply to all Public Works Departments. Specific mission requirements and workload will govern selection of the organizational pattern best suited to a particular field activity. Experience has shown that the following public works organizational components consistently support effective public works management:

(1) Administration (2) Family Housing (when needed) (3) Engineering (4) Facilities Management (5) Production (Maintenance, Transportation, Utilities) (6) Contracts Administration

The sixth organizational component, Contracts Administration, has been added as a result of increased reliance on contracting for public works services. Contract support has become an essential element in the execution of public works functions.

1.3. RESPONSIBILITY.

1.3.1 Chief of Naval Operations (CNO). The CNO is responsible for programming and budgeting the resources needed to acquire, operate, maintain, and dispose of land and facilities under CNO command; and for establishing related general policies, responsibilities and procedures, and monitoring their execution.

1.3.2 Major Claimants. Major Claimants are responsible for managing land and facilities under their command and ensuring that adequate public works services and resources to support mission requirements are provided. (OPNAVINST 11000.16).

1.3.3 Activity Commanding Officers. Connnanding Officers are responsible for the overall physical condition of the activity. They assure that sufficient resources are available for maintenance and operation of facilities, utilities, and transportation.

1.3.4 Public Works Department (PWD). PWDs are service organizations which provide a broad range of technical support and professional services to fleet and shore commands. Functions which PWDs perform:

(1) Facilities planning and programming (2) Real Estate management (3) Facility design and construction (4) Facilities maintenance, repair, minor construction, alteration,

demolition, and equipment installation

Page 13: Organization AndFunctions For Public Works …navybmr.com/study material/NAVFAC P-318.pdf ·  · 2016-07-041.3.3 Activity Commanding Officers. Connnanding Officers are responsible

(5) Utilities system operation and maintenance (6) Facility disposal (7) Transportation fleet management, operations and maintenance (8) Weight Handling Equipment maintenance management and certification (9) Family Housing Administration

The colt purpose of a public work organization is to provide quality products and services in a cost efficient and responsive fashion to those commands supported. The ertcnt to which this is done provides a direct measure of the effectivanese of a PWD.

1.3.5 Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFACENGCOM). The Command provides the Naval Shore Establishment with public works guidance, develops management systems, and provides contract support for facilities related - functions.

1.3.6 The Naval Inspector General (1.G.). The I.G. reviews the effectiveness and efficiency of public works organizations as part of field activity inspections. Recommendations by the I.G. as to organizational alignment and/or functional assignments should be based on guidance provided in this manual and tempered with documented mission peculiar requirements.

1.4 OTHER PUBLIC WORKS SUPPORT. It may be more economical to obtain all or some public works functions from qualified sources other that the PWD. To avoid duplication and to optimize levels of highly specialized skills and knowledge, public works services may be prcvided by other organizations.

1.4.1 Engineering Field Divisions (EFDs). There are six EFDs (Northern, Chesapeake, Atlantic, Southern, Western, and Pacific) supporting the Shore Establishment in specific geographic areas. They provide technic21 assistance, management system implementation and contract support in all facets of the planning, design, construction, operat-ton, maintenance, and repair of facilities, utilities, and pollution abatement. F.FDs also prov?de public works technical and management support to mejor claimants including conducting Facilities Evaluation and Assistance Team (FFAT) visits to evaluate public works performance on behalf of the Claimant (NAVFACINST 11010.64). Other areas of support provided by EFDs include:

1.4.1.1 Family Housing. Five of the six %FDs (Northern, Atlantic, Southern, Western, and Pacific) have Family Housing Divisions. These divisions provide specific support, guidance, and funding to activities having family housing. Housing support for activities in the Chesapeake Division geographic area is provided by Northern Division.

1.4.1.2 Transportation. Transportation Equipment Management Centers (TEMCs) are located in four EFDs (Chesapeake, Atlantic, Pacific, and Southern). TEMCs serve activities on a major claimant-basis, except that the Western Division provides the Weight Handling Equipment program support for all west coast activities.

1.4.1.3 Contract Support. Authority and responsibility for public works functions resides in activity Commanding Officers and the major claimant. Authority and responsibility for contract support, on the other hand, is held by NAVFA'XNGCOM. Contract authority is delegated to qualified persons in the EFDs and contract field offices. The head of these contract offices, commonly

called the Officer in Charge of Construction/Officer in Charge (OICC/OIC> may, :n many cases, be the PWO who is responsible to the EFD Commanding Officer IJhen acting in this capacity.

1.4.2 Public Works Centers (PWCs>. PWCs are established in areas of naval activity concentration to provide public works services. They are separate Commands which operate under the Naval Industrial Fund (except PWC Yokosuka which is O&M,N funded) and charge for services provided. Those activities near, but not normally supported by a PWC, may find the Center to be a timely, competent, and economical source of support for selected or specialized work.

1.4.3 Public Works Lead Activities (PWLAs). PWLAs are CNO-designated PWDs at Naval shore activities which provide a full spectrum of public works services. The type and extent of services provided should be documented in Intra-Service Support Agreements (ISSAs) executed between the PWLA and supported activities. OPNAVINST 11010.30 establishes PWLA responsibilities.

1.4.4 Adjacent Activities. Other nearby activities should be considered as a possible source of public works support, particularly for smaller activities. A consolidation of functions between these activities should be considered to achieve the most economical method of operation.

1.4.5 Contract. Facilities Support Contracts (FSC) are often used to supplement in-house work forces to satisfy peak workloads or obtain specialized services. Commercial Activities cost studies required by OMB Circular A-76 will also result in FSCs when contract performance is more economical.

1.4.6 Self-Help Work. The self-help program is a method of performing maintenance, repair, and/or construction on personnel support facilities by non-PWD personnel. OPNAVINST 11000.8 sets the policies and responsibilities for the development and execution of a local self-help program.

1.5 STAFF CIVIL ENGINEERS (SCEs). SCEs are Civil Engineer Corps (CEC) Officers assigned to shore activities not having a Public Works Department and receive public works support from PWLAs or PWCs. These officers provide expertise in the planning, programming, and budgeting of resources for public works services and development of facility maintenance execution plans (see OPNAVINST 5310.15).

1.6 RELATIONSHIP WITH CUSTOMERS. The PWD is a full-spectrum service organization charged with providing public works support for military missions. The Public Works Officer (PWO) and staff must strive for a good working relationship between the PWD and its customers, the other activity departments, and supported commands. A pro-active role should be maintained, effectively supporting existing requirements and anticipating new requirements. The department should be continuously searching for and evaluating new ways to provide improved services.

CHAPTER 2 PRINCIPLES OF PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT ORGANIZATION

2.1 ORGANIZATION PATTERN. The activity mission, civilian personnel ceiling, officer allowance, and position management policies influence the PWD organizational pattern. The objective is to establish the most efficient and effective organization with a minimum of intermediate components or layers of supervision.

2.2 ORGANIZATIONAL COMPONENTS. A department is the first organizational subdivision within a field activity. Departments are established to perform clearly defined major functions, or functions that are closely related. Management and operation of public works are functions performed by the PWD. Organizational components which may be established within a PWD are:

(1) Divisions (2) Branches (3) Work Centers (4) Sections (5) Units

2.3 SPAN OF CONTROL POLICY. Span of control refers to the number of subordinates and/or components that a single manager can effectively manage. Span of control should be broad enough to avoid organizational fragmentation, yet narrow enough to provide managers with full control over subordinates. First line supervisors should be responsible for the work of at least three professional personnel performing the basic work of the segment supervised. Ten or more can be supervised where personnel require little management attention, policies and procedures are well established, and the workload is stable. Supervisors above first line should manage at least two organizational components. Deviation from this policy should be critically reviewed when planning or reviewing PWD organizations. The Navy's Position Management Program, as directed by SECNAVINST 5310.11, provides further information on span of control policy.

2.4 AUTHORITY AND RESPONSIBILITY. Assignment of responsibility to organizational components and individuals must be accompanied by delegation of sufficient authority to respond to that responsibility. Authority should be delegated to the lowest component where information is available to make decisions. An effective technique for successful decentralized management is for organizational components to establish clearly defined objectives with each objective having attainable goals identified. Determination of objectives and related goals should be a joint effort between the component , and the next higher level. Goals for first line components should be quantitative. This allows for clear measurement of progress toward meeting goals and achieving the ultimate objective. Responsibilities common to all managerial levels include:

(1) Implementation of the policies and directives issued by the PWO and other appropriate authorities applicable to the conduct of PWD business;

(2) Assuring compliance with regulations governing the budgeting, accounting and expenditure of public money and material;

(5) Reviewing and evaluating work methods, work assignments, and staffing and initiating actions that will reduce costs or increase productivity.

2.5 BASIC ORGANIZATION. This publication provides organizational guidance that is to serve as a basis for developing site specific PWD organizations. Basic organizations are shown in figures 2-l and 2-2. The functional components of each of these organizations consist of the Administrative, Technical, and Production Divisions. These organizations are applicable to PWDs which perform a significant portion of production workload with in-house government work force. Chapter 4 discusses requirements and presents a basic organization for PWDs which are substantially or totally supported by contract.

2.5.1 Organization Size. Traditionally PWDs have been categorized as large, medium, and small based on the size of the work force. As contract support increases this categorization becomes less meaningful, although the size of the work force does influence the organization.

2.5.2 Administrative and Technical Divisions. Administrative and technical components are:

(1) Administrative (2) Family Housing (3) Engineering (4) Facilities Management Engineering (5) Facilities Support Contracts

2.5.3 Production Divisions. Production components are:

(1) Maintenance (2) Utilities (3) Transportation

2.6 STAFFING. Staffing standards for PWDs are established by CNO through the Navy Manpower Engineering Center. Staffing requirements will vary among PWDs due to several factors. These factors include:

(1) Age of plant (2) Dispersion of activity (3) Tempo of activity operations (4) Complexity of activity operations (5) Geographical location (6) Amount of PW funding (7) Current plant replacement value (8) Contract support (9) Manufacture or purchase of utilities

2.6.1 Military Billets. The number and rank of military billets at a PWD are derived from consideration of the above factors as well as the following:

(1) Additional PWO duty orders (2) Contract authority (3) Rank structure of station (4) Enlisted staffing

2.6.1.1 Public Works Officer (PWO)/Assistant Public Works Officer (APWO). The PWO and APWO are Civil Engineer Corps (CEC) officers designated by Naval Military Personnel Command orders. The PWO should have experience in public works and contracting. Public works experience is also important for the APWO.

2.6.1.2 Facilities Planning Officer. The Facilities Planning Officer billet should be established at larger PWDs. This billet:

(1)

(2)

Gives the activity an increased ability to do future planning by providing an added skilled resource (planning has frequently been an under supported, low priority function) and

Provides CEC officers with a billet in which they can utilize their engineering education and experience and learn the Navy's Shore Facilities Planning System (SFPS).

2.6.1.3 Activity Civil Engineer (ACE). The ACE, a CEC officer or civilian on the PWLA staff, serves as the principal liaison between the PWLA and other activities which receive public works support and who do not have a PWO or SCE. OPNAVINST 5310.15 provides additional detail.

2.6.1.4 Other Billets. Other military billets may be established at PWDs where circumstances require and to provide developmental experience for CEC officers in public works management. Such billets should have specific functions and responsibilities and not be "special assistant" type positions. Public Works Commercial Activities/Facilities Support Contracting Officers, Shops Engineers, and Utilities Plant Engineers are examples of billets which may be established.

2.6.2 Civilian Positions. Civilian ceiling authorizations are provided through the command chain. Position classification is done by the local Naval Civilian Personnel Office.

2.7 MOST EFFICIENT ORGANIZATION (MEO). Activities are responsible for development and implementation of MEOs that provide the most economical means of achieving assigned mission. Commercial Activities (CA) and Defense Retail Inter-service Support (DRIS) are programs that critically review selected functions for performance efficiency. These reviews have the potential to result in conversion of work to contract or the consolidation of functions with other DON/WD Activities. These programs are implemented by OPNAVINST 4860.6 and OPNAVINST 4000.19'respectively. The nature of most public works and public utilities functions are such that these programs are applicable. Guidance provided in this and other referenced publications will assist activities in developing a public works ME0 that is both cost and performance competitive with any other activity or commercial sources.

Depending upon the size and mission of the activity, this function may or may not be contained within the PWD. In either case, the activity energy coordinator will require strong support from the PWD. At large activities using significant quantities of energy, establishment of an energy conservation engineer position is justified and encouraged. This po8ition may be assigned to the Engineering Divi8ion as a staff office due to its close association with facilitie8 design and project preparation and availability of technical support. This position may be given special emphasis through formal designation as principal advisor for energy matters to the PWO, the activity energy coordinator, o r the energy committee. Close coordination with other divisions of the PWD and with other departments will be required. For further information refer to OPNAVINST 4100.5. Major duties are:

3.2.4.5 Alternative Organization. PWDs having less than 100 total personnel or the combined equivalent with contract support in the Maintenance and Utilities Branches should consider placing the Facilities Management Engineering and Engineering Division8 into one Facilities Division (See Figure 2-Z). Experience has shown that the workload is not of sufficient scope and quantity to justify establishment of two director positions at a grade level which will attract well qualified personnel. By combining the division8 the field activity will be in a better position to secure a qualified engineer to supervise the facilities management and engineering functions. ActiVitieS having over 100 total personnel in the Maintenance and Utilities Divisions including equivalent personnel obtained by Facilities Support Contracts, should not combine the Engineering and Facilities Management Engineering Divisions. The scope and quantity of work in each area requires a full-time director and should be sufficient to obtain the grade level necessary to attract qualified directors for both divisiona.

3.2.5 Facilities Support Contract Division. This Division provide8 the day-to-day administration of Facilities Support Contracts. These are maintenance service, indefinite delivery maintenance construction, and combination maintenance service/maintenance construction contracts awarded by a NAVFACEWGCOM Contracting Officer. Frequently the PWO will have additional duty as the Bead of the local Contracting Office (OIC/OICC). It is NAVFACENGCOM policy that, when practical and subject to the concurrence of EFD Commander8 and activity Commanding Officers, field acquisition authority and organization be consolidated under the appropriate Public Works Officer. While the OIC/OICC has overall re8pon8ibility for contract administration, some specific reSpOnSibilitie8 as identified in 3.2.5.2 are assigned to the activity (NAVFACINST 4330.45). Figure 3-5 shows the contract authority chain in relation to operational command lines. When activity re8ponsibilities require five or more pereonnel'a Contract Division should be established. When contract support is limited these reeponsibilities may be aSSigned as staff to the PWO in lieu of establishing a division. Regardless of the organizational placement of the Facilities Support Contract8 component, care must be exercised to ensure the integrity of the contractual process.

3.2.5.1 OIC/OICC Re8pon8ibilitie8. The OIC/OICC is r88pOnSible for ensuring that procurement and contract admini8tration are carried out in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), NAVFAC'e Contracting Manual (NAVFAC P-681, and other pertinent regulations. Definition8 which assist understanding the role of a shore activity in FSC administration are:

(1) Procurement. The process of selecting a contractor, awarding a contract, making payments, issuing modifications, and contract close out are Contracting Officer functions carried out for the OIC/OICC by procurement profe88ionals. Procurement include8 the maintenance of bidders lists; conduct of pre-bid conference8 and site visits; receipt, opening, and evaluation of bids; conduct of pre-award surveys; issuance of contract modifications; issuance of Contractual document8 obligating funds; certification of contract payment vouchers; maintenance of the official contract file; issuance of final releases; and resolution of contractor claims.

admini8tration actions. The FSCM may be either civilian or military. Figure 3-6 contrasts the organizational position of this Division within the PWTI with the functional, or day-to-day, relationship to the contract organization. When span of control and other supervisory COnSideratiOnS are justified, separate branches for support and quality assurance should be formed as depicted in Figure 3-7.

3.2.5.4 Administrative Support Branch. This Branch provides support to the FSC administration process and may include assistants to the FSCM for specific contract8 as well as clerical personnel. Profe88ional procurement support is provided by the NAVFACENGCOM Contract Office staff and should not be 'duplicated in this Branch.

3.2.5.5 Quality Assurance (QA) Branch. Quality Assurance Evaluators (QAE) perform surveillance of contractor performance under written delegation of authority from the OIC/OICC. The Branch is led by a supervisory QAE. Contract surveillance is critical to effective contract administration and should be performed by qualified personnel assigned to full time position8 in this DiviSiOn. QAEs must be trained in QA techniques, and have knowledge of the work being inspected. Training should include the QAE course conducted by PPD8. In those instances where personnel from other organization8 may perform QA function8 on a part-time baSi.8 to provide a specialized technical knowledge they work under the FSCM's direction. NAVFAC MQ-327, Service Contracts: Specifications and Surveillance, provide8 guidance.

3.3 PRODUCTION DIVISIONS. The Maintenance, Utilities, and Transportation Division8 are directly re8pOnSible for the performance of work by government personnel. They provide technical advice in developing contract requirements and serve as functional technical representative for contract support (See 4.3.2.2). In large PWDs a Shop8 Engineer, either a militaxy officer or civilian, may direct and coordinate the production diViSiOn8. Otherwiee, these DiViSiOn8 should report to the APWO. A combined Maintenance/Utilities Division may be an appropriate alternative in medium or small PWDa when either maintenance or utilities workload is small relative to the other. hidl PWD8 may combine all Shop8 into a Production Division with Maintenance, Utilitie8 and Transportation Branches.

\

3.3.1 Division Directors. Production Division Director8 have supervisory responsibilities for the largest number of personnel in a PWD. The following specific reSpOn8ibilitieS of these positions are particularly significant.

CHAPTER4 ORGANIZATION FOR CWTRACTED PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENTS

4.1 General. Increased emphseie on the government policy of reliance on the private sector for the performance of commercial activities has led to some PWDs with all, or major portions of, production workload performed by contract. This trend is expected to continue. The entire organization of the PWD is affected when this occurs. Functions, workload, staffing requirements, and organizational relations change when major production workload converts to contract. Certain functions however are governmental in nature and must be performed by government employees. Within a PWD these functions may be broadly categorized as:

(1) Assessment of condition and determination of requirements (2) Development of plans and programs (3) ReSOUrCe priority control (3) Work order control (4) Contract administration

4.2 OIC/OICC Responsibilities. OIC/OICC reSpOnSibilitie6 are discussed in paragraph 3.2.5.1.

4.3 Basic Organization. A basic organization for the PWD in which all, or nearly all, production work is performed by contract is shown in Figure 4-1. This organizational alignment reflects the consolidation of the residual functions into Administration, Technical Management, Family Housing, and Contract Divisions. When the conversion from predominately government work force to contract is incremental over time, it will be necessary to provide a transition from the standard organization (Figures 2-1 and 2-2). When a small residual government work force remains in one or more production functions, a Production Division may be warranted. The Family Housing DiViSiOn is not needed if assignment and termination of government quarters and private referral service are contracted. If the residual government work force is relatively large, the standard organization should be retained and paragraph 3.2.5 used for guidance.

4.3.1 Administrative Division. The Administrative Division perform8 those functions described in paragraph 3.2.1 except those described for the Management AnalySiS Branch. The size of the Division will be smaller since there are fewer government employees and government performed functions to support, In larger PWDs formation of a Financial Branch and a Services Branch, incorporating Personnel and Office Services functions, may be warranted.

4.3.2 Technical Management Division. The Technical Management Division performs those governmental functions related to determining requirements, resources management, planning and programming, technical policy development, engineering support, and overall evaluation of contract public works support. Technical Representatives should be designated for all function81 areas included in Facility Support Contracts which may include non-public works functions (e.g. guard services, fire protection, etc.). These non-public works Technical Representatives remain a part of the appropriate functional organization at the activity.

4.3.2.1 Organization. Organization of this division will vary depending upon the number and type of functions retained aud on the size of the PWD. Branches as identified in Figure 4-l should be considered. When warranted by workload, combining the Facilities Management Engineering Branch and the Engineering Branch as described in paragraph 3.2.4.5 is rem-ended.

4.3.2.2 Facilities Management Englneerlng Branch. This branch per?orms those functions identified for the Facllltles Management Engineering Division (FMED) (paragraph 3.2.4) which are required to support production functions retained by the government and to serve as the technical representative for contracted facllltie8 functions. Functions performed by the Facilities Management Engineering Branch are similar to those functions performed by Staff Civil Engineers at activities who receive support from PWDs and PWCs. This branch determines activity real property maintenance requirements, ensures these requirement8 are identified in contracts, and evdluates support received to insure that activity requirements are satisfied.

4.3.2.3 Technical Representative Branch. This branch performs those technical management functions for transportation and utilities (also family housing when assignment8 and referral services are contracted) identified in paragraph8 3.3.3 and 3.3.4 which are governmental in nature or which have not been contracted. The branch identifies requirements for inclusion in contracts and evaluates support received to insure that activity transportation and utility requirements are satisfied.

4.3.2.4 Engineering Branch. The Engineering Branch performs those function8 listed ic paragraph 3.2.3 which are governmental in nature or which support retained government work forces. Theee function8 iuclude engineering studies, review of engineering work performed by others, preparation of contract plans and specifications (including performance work statements as required), shore facility planning, environmental protection, and energy conservation.

4.3.3 Family Housing Division. This division is responsible for determining housing requirements and programming for housing acquisitions; maintaining liaison with local authorities, real estate organizations, and community groups; mediating occupant complaints; and other functions identified in paragraph 3.2.2 which have not been contracted. This division identifies housing requirements for inclusion in contract8 and evaluates contract support received to insure that family housing requirements are satisfied.

4.3.4 Facilities Support Contract Division. Responslbllltles of this Division are described in paragraph 3.2.5. This Division is directed by a Facilities Support Contract Manager (FSCM) who is delegated responsibility and authority in writing by the OIC/OICC for specific contract administration functions. Normally activities with significant contract support will require separate branches for administrative support and quality assurance. Specific guidance is provided in paragraph 3.2.5.3.
