  laboratories, centers of expertise, base camp development teams, USACE divisions and districts, other DOD
  or U.S. government agencies, or other organizations for more complex engineering issues.
  A base camp development team is a non-deployable team within a selected USACE district that can
  quickly provide base camp development engineering, master planning, and facilities design in support of
  field force engineering (FFE) and other reachback requests for information. Base camp development teams
  are trained and organized within USACE divisions, and they maintain a rotational readiness cycle. While
  these teams are capable of responding to a variety of complex technical problems, they are also trained to
  exploit the entire array of expertise within USACE laboratories or centers of expertise for more complex
  engineering issues. Focus areas for the base camp development teams are engineer-related planning and
  development issues involved in locating, designing, constructing, and eventually closing or transferring base
  camps. Base camp operations and maintenance activities are not within the scope of FFE support, but they
  may rely on FFE applications to address specific technical engineering requirements when necessary. The
  base camp development team resources and expertise are available to support FFE teams and operational
  forces through the USACE Reachback Operations Center Web site.
  A USACE contingency engineer district supports combatant command requirements. Should contract
  construction exceed the capabilities of the major subordinate commander, USACE may establish an
  additional contingency support organization or simply augment the existing staff. These capabilities would
  align themselves with the theater level engineer staff element.
  The USACE contingency engineer district provides responsive technical engineer support to U.S.
  forces, other U.S. government agencies, and headquarters and staff augmentation. Technical engineer support
  includes—
  * Engineer reconnaissance.
  * Estimates.
  * Design and plan projects.
  * Execution of contract construction.
  * Project quality assurance and quality control.
  * Real estate acquisition and disposal.
  * Environmental assessments and operations.
  * Operation and maintenance until projects are turned over to designated agencies.
  * Technical engineering advice to the supported command and agencies in support of the operational
  campaign plan.
  USACE contingency engineer district business management functions include—
  * Project contracting.
  * Resource management operations.
  * Legal support for contract construction.
  * Safety and occupational health.
  * Logistics management operations.
  The headquarters and staff augmentation cell is a USACE cell that synchronizes USACE construction
  effects and customer requirements at the theater level, provides oversight of USACE construction programs,
  and provides USACE major subordinate command-level of oversight of forward-deployed contingency
  engineer districts and other USACE assets. This augmentation cell provides the theater-wide synchronization
  of construction effects and program oversight. The augmentation cell roles and responsibilities include—
  * Communicating construction effects to theater level decision makers and jointly developing an
  infrastructure plan that nests with the civil-military strategy as part of the theater campaign plan.
  * Augmenting theater engineer staff with technical engineering expertise not resident within the
  staff.
  * Engaging with the HN government and the U.S. government interagency to synchronize
  construction effects.
