Operations made minor modifications to the 1966 standards and suggested the following standards for construction and base development in support of contingency operations: Field: Cantonments for forces whose activities are such that they may be characterized as essentially transient. Intermediate: Cantonments for forces subject to move at infrequent intervals. Anticipated duration of occupancy: 24-48 months. Temporary: Cantonments for forces not expected to move in the foreseeable future.
