for APF support, as well as those already incurred, are
included.
Section III:
BUDGET POLICY FOR CONSTRUCTION
075530 GENERAL
MWR facilities should be constructed using a single source of funds, either
nonappropriated funds (NAF) or appropriated funds (APF), following
guidance provided in the Conference Report on the DoD Military
Construction Authorization Bill for Fiscal Year 1980 (Public Law 96-125).
This policy also applies to the funding of minor and major construction
following guidance contained in the National Defense Authorization Act for
Fiscal Year 1987, Report of the Committee on Armed Services, U.S. House of
Representatives (Report 99-718). It is recognized that from time to time
unique situations or exigencies that need immediate or more specific attention
may require deviation or exception to the basic funding policy. Requests for
deviations or exceptions should be forwarded via the chain of command to the
Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial Management and
Comptroller) (OASN (FM&C)) and the Assistant Secretary of the Navy
(Research, Development, and Acquisition) (ASN(RDA)).

075531 USE OF APPROPRIATED FUNDS
1. GENERAL.
Appropriated funds (APF) may be used for all MWR construction related
to the establishment, activation, or expansion of a military installation or
relocation of facilities for convenience of the government; to correct life
safety deficiencies; to maintain structural integrity; and, with prior
approval of the Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Financial
Management and Comptroller) (OASN (FM&C)), for replacement of
facilities denied by country-to-country agreements and for restoration of
facilities destroyed by acts of God, fire, or terrorism. In the case of
installation "expansion," a major increase in authorized and assigned
personnel strength over a short period of time is necessary before
appropriated fund construction can be programmed. Such expansion must
be the result of a mission change or influx of new units or systems.
Personnel increases resulting from an evolutionary expansion occurring
over several years do not satisfy these criteria. APF construction is bound
by the policies covered in discussions of military construction elsewhere
in this Manual.
