Support Facilities
Upon application of the previous parameters, any surplus space can only be
used for additional conference rooms, multipurpose training rooms, storage
areas, and counter space. Storage areas must be connected to conference
rooms or multipurpose training rooms. A counter space should be located in the
central meeting room. Additional counter space may be located in other
conference rooms or multipurpose training rooms.
Please see the chart below for examples of room sizes and room applications
for the three categories of field stations. The examples used represent a small
field station with 100 FTE, a medium field station with 200 FTE, and a large field
station with 300 or more FTE.
