can assure itself of development that is efficient, cost effective and reasonably in
harmony with the character and quality of desirable environment. The intent is to
provide design guidance in those areas not covered by building codes and design
directives. It consists of review by qualified professionals to assure conformance
with certain considerations of design that the Navy establishes and administers.
c. The Architectural Review Board (ARB) is to ascertain that the end products of the

the Naval Facilities Engineering Command policy of providing facilities that
are durable in character, timeless, and not trendy in appearance. Stylistic or
passing fashion design features and monumental structures are to be
avoided.
d. The initial ARB review will take place at the schematic design submittal stage.
The PL will require that the A-E to submit design status drawings, basis of design
and cost estimates at or near 15% design completion for review and approval by
