Facility Environmental Coordinator Appointment Memorandum (FEC)
The Facility Environmental Coordinator appointment memorandum is an AR 25-50 compliant memorandum used to formally designate a Soldier or DA Civilian to serve as the unit's Facility Environmental Coordinator. It documents the appointee, references Facility Environmental Coordinator Policy (Facility Environmental Coordinator Policy), and is signed by the commander.

When is the FEC memo needed?
Most Army units appoint a Facility Environmental Coordinator (FEC) when a new commander takes charge, when the previous appointee PCSes, ETSes, or is reassigned, or when the unit's mission set changes in a way that requires renewed appointment. The memo is also required for unit inspections — including CIP, CCIR, and command climate reviews — where the Facility Environmental Coordinator Policy program is evaluated.
The appointment memorandum is the foundational document that establishes the appointee's authority under Facility Environmental Coordinator Policy. Without a current, signed appointment memo on file, the unit's Facility Environmental Coordinator program is non-compliant — even if the appointee has all required training certificates. Inspectors will look for: a signed memo with current date, a grade that meets Must be the parent unit Administrative Officer (AO) or Readiness NCO, and training/certification documents matching the appointee on the memo.
On EvalMe, the FEC memo is one of 39 AR 25-50 templates that auto-cites the correct regulation, uses the proper format, and integrates with your unit's address book and signature blocks.
Required training for FEC
Documentation required on file
- Appointment orders signed by commander
- Training documentation as required by state environmental office
What inspectors look for
Inspector verifies the FEC is the parent unit Administrative Officer (AO) or Readiness NCO — this is not discretionary. Parent unit of the facility is responsible.
Additional notes
The FEC must specifically be the AO or Readiness NCO — not just any designee.
