The Air Force will soon have a single, cohesive place to turn to for authoritative sustainability and environmental answers. The Accessible kNowledge for Sustainable Resources (ANSR) Web site will launch in spring 2011. The ANSR 'one-stop shop' will reside on the Air Force A7C Portal and will be accessible to all Department of Defense personnel with a Common Access Card.
A visitor to the ANSR site will be able to search the online information repository, which will include current procedures, guidance, playbooks, fact sheets and key source links. Each AFCEE environmental and sustainability program area will have its own page within the site.
ANSR will also house a database of previously answered environmental management questions. Visitors with unique environmental or sustainability questions will have the option of completing an information request on the site. The request will be analyzed by the ANSR "gatekeeper", who will provide the answer to the question, if available, or will forward the request on to the appropriate subject matter expert, subject matter specialist or program manager. The response will be provided to the visitor and also incorporated into the ANSR knowledge base for future reference.
