23 Why the DoD Mandates? Why is OSD “Pushing”? - ~70% of all 445,000 Federal bldgs are in DoD -DoD has over 300,000 buildings, and by 2025 over 67% of DoD facilities will be over 50 yrs old -OSD helping create the “Industry Standard” in Sustainability thru DoD mandates -- 25 Oct 2010 “DoD Sustainable Bldgs Policy” Ltr by Dep Undersecretary of Defense (I&E) Dorothy Robyn; start in FY12 w/ projects in planning stage 1) New bldgs will conform to Guiding Principles (FLHPSB MOU), LEED Silver w/ 40% of pts for energy/water efficiency 2) Bldg reno/repair will also conform to GPs, LEED Silver 3) Reduce total cost of ownership, incorporate life cycle and cost benefit analysis into new and existing bldg designs 11-17-2010Professional Development11

24 Guiding Principles are Critical Constant -Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Building (FLHPSB) Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed in 2006 by all Federal Agencies; see LEED parallels -High Performance and Sustainable Buildings Guidance issued Dec 2008 – Provides agencies the “How to...” guidance w/ Reporting Reqts, Compliance Criteria (based on type of bldg), Sustainable Bldgs Implementation Plans, Bldg Inventory Calculation, Measurements w/ Options, and Guiding Principles (GP) details for each GP Area -GPs Encompass Five Areas: Employ Integrated Design, Optimize Energy Performance, Protect/Conserve Water, Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality, Reduce Environmental Impact of Materials (~80% LEED credit eligible) 11-17-2010Professional Development12

25 Guiding Principles Summary -Employ Integrated Design Principles -- Integrated design incl integrated project team, performance goals, life cycle cost analysis -- Commissioning incl plan, systems’ installation/performance verification, report -Optimize Energy Performance -- Energy Efficiency incl earning Energy Star targets, 30% energy redux for new construction, 20% redux for major renovations -- On-Site Renewable Energy incl when cost effective meet 30% hot water demand via solar hot water heaters, implement renewable energy generation projects on agency property -- Measurement and Verification w/ metering -- Benchmarking to compare energy performance to design target 11-17-2010Professional Development13

26 Guiding Principles (cont’d) -Protect and Conserve Water -- Indoor Water: use 20% less potable water than baseline, meter water use, harvest and use non-potable water -- Outdoor Water: reduce use by min 50%, meter use, reduce stormwater runoff and polluted water discharge, restore site predevelopment hydrology -- Process Water: Use lifecycle cost effective water conservation measures when potable water used to improve energy efficiency -- Water Efficient Products: Specify EPA WaterSense-labeled (WS) or equal products, and WS certified irrigation contractors 11-17-2010Professional Development14

27 Guiding Principles (cont’d) -Enhance Indoor Environmental Quality -- Ventilation and Thermal Comfort: Meet ASHRAE Standards 55-2004 and 62.1-2007 -- Moisture Control: requires moisture control strategy controlling moisture flow and condensation to prevent damage, minimize mold, and reduce health risks -- Daylighting: Min daylight factor of 2% in 75% of critical visual task space, provide accessible manual lighting or auto-dimming controls and glare control --Low Emitting Materials: specify low pollutant emission mtls/products incl wood composites, paints/finishes, sealants, adhesives, carpet, furnishings -- Protect Indoor Air Quality During Construction: Follow Sheet Metal/Air Conditioning Contractor Nat’l Assoc Guidelines (2007), flush system for min 72 hrs prior to occupancy, flush out contaminants as necessary after occupancy 11-17-2010Professional Development15

28 Guiding Principles (cont’d) -Reduce Environmental Impact of Materials -- Specify Materials w/ Recycled and Biobased Content (per EPA and USDA websites (www.epa.gov/cpg & www.usda.gov/biopreferred)www.epa.gov/cpgwww.usda.gov/biopreferred -- Use Environmentally Preferable Products (consult Federal Green Construction Guide for Specifiers (www.wbdg.org/design/greenspec.php )www.wbdg.org/design/greenspec.php -- Waste and Materials Mgt: Recycle or salvage min 50% of non- hazardous construction, demolition, and land clearing matls -- Ozone Depleting Compounds (ODC): Eliminate ODC use during and after construction when alternatives available consistent w/ Montreal Protocol or Title VI of the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990 -Many parallels between Guiding Principles and areas that count for LEED point tally for certification and rating level 11-17-2010Professional Development16

29 Required LEED Points w/ Water and Energy Efficiency Emphasis -OSD ‘s Dept of Defense Sustainable Bldgs 25 Oct 2010 Policy Ltr states: “Beginning in FY12 for projects in the planning stage, the sum of energy and water efficiency credits shall equal or exceed 40% of the points required for a LEED-Silver (or equal) rating…” - LEED’s 5 Green Design Areas: Site Selection (26 pts), Water Efficiency (10 pts), Energy & Atmosphere (35 pts), Materials & Resources (14 pts), Indoor Environmental Quality (15 pts) total 100 points w/ additional possible points in Innovation in Design (6 pts) and Regional Priority (4 pts) - T otal LEED pts for Water Efficiency (WE) and Energy & Atmosphere (EA) DOUBLED w/ LEED 2009 New Construction rating system compared to prior LEED-NC v2.2, while point range for LEED Silver increased ~50% 11-17-2010Professional Development17

30 Water and Energy Efficiency LEED Points -Water Efficiency (WE) totals 10 points w/ 1 prerequisite -- 3 total credit areas incl WE credit 1-Water Efficient Landscaping (4 pts), WE c2-Innovative Wastewater Technologies (2 pts), WE c3-Water Use Reduction (2-4 pts) -Energy & Atmosphere (EA) totals 35 pts w/ 3 prerequisites -- 6 total credit areas incl EA credit 1-Optimize Energy Performance (1-19 pts), EA c2-On-Site Renewable Energy (1-7 pts), EA c3-Enhanced Commissioning (2 pts), EA c4 Enhanced Refrigerant Mgt (2 pts), EA c5-Measurement and Verification (3 pts), EA c6-Green Power (2 pts) -LEED Silver requires 50-59 pts, so OSD’s 40%+ of Silver cert points requires at least 20 out of 45 combined EA and WE points; which is reasonably achievable 11-17-2010Professional Development18

31 What’s It All About? -Improve Quality of Life, Safety and Health of Facility Occupants/Users -Improve Energy Security, Reduce Reliance on Foreign Energy -Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions, Ozone Depletion, Man-Induced Negative Effects on Environment/Climate -Generate Energy Savings for Better Alternative $$ Expenditures -Solve/Lessen Challenges/Problems Now; Don’t Leave Daunting Mess for Next Generation(s) -It’s Cliché, but Must “Do the Right Thing” 11-17-2010Professional Development19
