3 Executive Order 09-07 EXECUTIVE ORDER TO ENCOURAGE THE REDUCTION OF ENERGY CONSUMPTION BY STATE AGENCIES AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF STATE AGENCY OPERATIONS Act 1494 AN ACT TO PROMOTE THE CONSERVATION OF ENERGY AND NATURAL RESOURCES IN BUILDINGS OWNED BY PUBLIC AGENCIES AND INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION; AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES

4 Strategic Energy Plans (StEP) Two primary goals of an agency’s StEP 1) reducing energy use and costs in an agency's annual maintenance and operating budget 2) promoting agency operations and practices that will reduce, to the extent practicable, the environmental impact of the agency's overall operation Each Agency StEP Must Contain Agency’s Energy Team members names Plan for reducing annual energy costs and agency environmental impact Data on agency’s annual energy use Data on agency’s annual energy use due April 1, 2010

5 Strategic Energy Plans (StEP) Step 1: Draft narrative to support agency vision Gather Building data and enter information into StEP Facility Data Sheet Submit preliminary plan online by October 31, 2009 Use Templates available online at Green.Arkansas.Gov

6 Strategic Energy Plans (StEP) Step 2: Plans will be reviewed by the Energy Efficient State Government Working Group Suggested changes will be transmitted to the Agency Energy Manager for revision Plans were reviewed by the Working Group on Nov. 5 th & 12 th Plans were rated as follows: Green for Good = 11 submittals Yellow for OK, needs some work = 14 submittals Red for incomplete, needs more work = 16 submittals Not required or undergoing agency relocation = 6 submittals Revised StEPs are due for re-submittal by Friday, January 8, 2010 Step 3: Complete StEP Facility Data Sheet with information from July 1, 2007 to December 31, 2009 Submit final StEP and Facility Data Sheet online by April 1, 2010

7 Revolving Loan Fund What is it? Created by Act 1372 of 2009 – Provides a funding mechanism for state agencies, boards and commission who own facilities and would like to accomplish energy initiatives within their facilities Who qualifies? State agencies, boards and commissions – Excludes institutions of Higher Education, public schools and legislative or constitutional entities of the State, who own facilities and would like to pursue energy related capital improvements that exceed $250,000. Requirement to qualify: State agencies, boards and commissions whose StEP has been approved via a Green for Good rating

8 Revolving Loan Fund When will this be available? Currently being drafted – Arkansas Building Authority, in conjunction with a number of energy partners, is in the process of drafting the Revolving Loan Fund rules which will be promulgated through a public comment period, public hearing and adopted by legislative approval. It is expected that the loan program will be available for project reviews during the third quarter of the fiscal year. Prerequisites? The State Energy Office is developing criteria by which each project will be evaluated. – Each project request in excess of $250,000 must meet the minimum energy criteria and the agency must have completed and submitted their StEP within the established timeline to be eligible for a loan award. The agency must be able to repay the loan within ten (10) years of issuance.

11 Green.Arkansas.Gov Web site designed to provide information on “Going Green” for consumers as well as state and local government entities Central repository of “Green” information – providing links to various data sources The StEP submission portal – providing agencies a secure area for uploading StEP documents

12 Tips for a Successful Strategic Energy Plan and Energy Team Suggestions Identify Energy Team – who needs to be included? What are their roles? Create an inclusive strategy – Establishing roles and actions throughout the organization can help to integrate good energy management practices. Develop an action plan – Brainstorm with various offices/staff members to identify ways they can contribute – Hold a competition to seek ideas for energy efficiency from across the organization – Gathering recommendations from the Energy Team and other key personnel

13 Sample StEP Strategic Energy Plan A sample StEP Document is provided online as a guideline for goals, strategies, objectives, and actions that you may want to include in your plan. Since some agencies are facility owners and some agencies lease buildings or space (which may include or exclude utilities), each plan will need to be tailored to that individual agency.

14 A Strategic Plan is a comprehensive plan for accomplishment in relation to stated goals and objectives. Ideally, the plan should cover multiple years; include targets for expected accomplishments; and propose specific performance measures used to evaluate progress towards those targets. Strategic Energy Plan Suggestions Examples from plans that received a “Green for Good” rating will be shared on the following slides.

15 Suggestions for improving your StEP Include a cover letter from the Agency Director that includes a brief narrative to support agency vision StEP Have identifiable file names. Name, save and upload your documents with your agency identifier, for example: DIS 0470 Strategic Energy 10302009 Plan ABA StEP 102909 DIS 0470 ArkansasStEPFacilityDataSheet 10302009 ABA StEP DATA 102809 Include a cover page as previously shown to include the agency business area code number, name and contact information for the Agency Energy Manager Section I, A & B: Identify Energy Team – who needs to be included and what are their roles? Section I, C: Create an inclusive strategy - e stablishing roles and actions throughout the organization can help to integrate good energy management practices. Section II: Provide a brief summary of the facilities that are to be reported in the StEP Facility Data Sheet.

16 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section I, A: Identify Energy Team Example 1 (brief from ADEQ): ADEQ’s EMS team is also its Energy Team and is composed of nine members from the following divisions and branches within the Department: Administration, Management Services, MS Building Operations Branch, Computer Services, Solid Waste Recycling and Market Development Branch, Fiscal, and Public Outreach & Assistance. The Energy Team will meet quarterly in response to EO 09-07. Example 2 (detailed from Ins. Dept.): The Arkansas Insurance Department’s Energy Team is comprised of at least fifteen (15) Department Divisions with at least one (1) representative from the following departments and functions within the organization: Facilities, Operations, Maintenance, Administration, Finance and other Stakeholders. The Energy Team was established in September of 2009 and meets on a regular basis to discuss energy management issues, such as organization-wide energy use reduction policies, capital improvement plans, maintenance and other related issues.

17 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide Appointment of Energy Director: The Insurance Commissioner in accordance with the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star Program and EO 09-07 will appoint as an additional duty an Energy Director. This appointment will be in writing (See Appointment Order Energy Director). This appointment will normally not exceed one (1) year from date of appointment; however the Commissioner may extend this appointment at his/her desecration. The Energy Director will report to and work for the Chief Deputy Commissioner. Appointment of Energy Team: With the approval of the Commissioner and/or the Chief Deputy Insurance Commissioner, the Energy Director will establish and appoint an Energy Team to assist in the planning and implementing specific improvements. The Team will measure and track energy performance and communicate with management employees and other stakeholders. This appointment will be in writing. This appointment will normally not exceed one (1) year from date of appointment; however the Energy Director may extend this appointment at his/her discretion.

18 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section I, C: Create an inclusive strategy Example 1 (from DIS): Per the responsibilities charged to our agency in the Governor’s Executive Order 09-07 and as the principal agency responsible for information technology in Arkansas, the Department of Information Systems (DIS) is committed to serve as a leader within state government in the responsible use of technology to minimize the impact on energy and natural resources. DIS is committed to reducing energy consumption and conserving natural resources wherever and whenever possible. We also believe that the prudent management of our state’s technology infrastructure will be beneficial to our agency employees and taxpayers in financial management and energy savings. DIS has established an energy team for the efficient management of energy and natural resources. The fulfillment of this policy is the joint responsibility of the DIS Energy Team, the agency director and supporting personnel. Cooperation is required on all levels within DIS for the success of this policy.

19 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section II: Facility/Site Description Example 1 (from DIS): DIS leases office space from the Arkansas Building Authority (ABA) in the Multi-Agency Complex (MAC) at One Capitol Mall. The full service lease includes utilities in the lease payment. DIS is billed monthly, above the lease amount, for the data center’s actual electrical usage as recorded via sub-meters. ABA will report all utility information for DIS leased space. ABA provides data center electrical usage and cost information for monitoring and benchmarking purposes to DIS. This information will be used for Goal 1, Strategy 1.3 to identify and implement five or more initiatives to reduce power consumption in the data center. DIS leases warehouse space through ABA at 2201 Brookwood. ABA manages this space for a private owner. Electric and gas utilities are not included in this lease, therefore DIS will report utility usage for this facility.

20 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide DIS also leases space from the University of Arkansas on the Fayetteville and Pine Bluff campuses. These spaces house network equipment for two “Point of Presence” sites on the state network to provide redundancy for the network. These are full service leases which include utilities, therefore energy use for these sites will not be reported. DIS manages the Arkansas Wireless Information System (AWIN) for Arkansas State Police (ASP) owned facilities. Facility and utility information is provided to ASP for reporting purposes.

21 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan Elements (Develop an action plan!) – Brainstorm with various offices/staff members to identify ways they can contribute – Hold a competition to seek ideas for energy efficiency from across the organization – Gathering recommendations from the Energy Team and other key personnel – A Strategic Plan is a comprehensive plan for accomplishment in relation to stated goals and objectives. – Ideally, the plan should cover multiple years; include targets for expected accomplishments; and propose specific performance measures used to evaluate progress towards those targets.

22 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan Goal 1: Reduce the agency's annual maintenance and operating budget devoted to energy consumption (usage) in accordance with Executive Order 09-07 and Act 1494 of 2009.Executive Order 09-07Act 1494 As stated in Act 1494, energy use in all existing state buildings shall be reduced by twenty percent (20%) by 2014 and thirty percent (30%) reduction by 2017 based on energy consumption for the 2007 - 2008 fiscal year (FY), if the savings can be justified by a life cycle cost analysis. Strategy 1.1: Collect annual energy usage data for facilities owned or leased by the reporting organization See examples on the following slides

23 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from Military Dept.): The Military Department of Arkansas Collects annual energy usage data for facilities owned or leased by the reporting organization through the database Utility Management Program (UMPRO). The data collected is inputted into the ENERGY STAR Portfolio manager database. Example 2 (from ASP): ASP has been tracking energy use at all of its facilities for many years. All of the costs and usage data have to come through the main headquarters in Little Rock. We will continue to track the data on a monthly basis for usage and costs according to EO 09-07. The data will be collected and managed by our Building Maintenance Coordinator and/or Inmate Services Supervisor

24 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 1.2: Collect annual energy usage data for vehicle fleet owned or leased by the reporting organization in order to improve fleet vehicle efficiency. Example 1 (from ASCL): The miles driven and fuel consumed by the Arkansas State Crime Laboratory fleet for FY 07 was 262,907 miles and 13,560 gallons with fleet average miles per gallon of 19.3 MPG. The fleet numbers for FY 08 were 286,080 miles and 15,841 gallons with fleet average miles per gallon of 18.0 MPG. The FY 09 average is 255,758 miles and 14,061 gallons consumed with fleet average miles per gallon of 18.1 MPG. The number of vehicles authorized for the ASCL is seventeen. We have a mix of cars and pick-up trucks. The cars are used for court testimony. The trucks are utilized primarily to pick up deceased individuals and return them to the ASCL-Morgue.

25 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide The trucks are also used to travel to clandestine drug labs for deeming a laboratory safe and taking representative evidence samples. The staff of the ASCL travels to every county in the state for court and almost every county to pick up deceased individuals. State law provides that remains of every homicide or suspicious death may be returned to the county of origin. The average age of the fleet is seven years old. Example 2 (from ASP): 2008 annual mileage was 15,196,743; Average mileage was 17,036; number of vehicles were 892; age of vehicles 2.6 years. 2009 annual mileage was 15,818,083; Average mileage was 18,853; number of vehicles were 839; age of vehicles 3.2 years.

26 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide 2010 mileage for July – August was 3,923,640; Average mileage was 4,530; number of vehicles were 866; age of vehicles 3.8 years. See Appendix II Objective 1.2.1: Determine annual miles per gallon of vehicle fleet currently as a benchmark. ASP has been tracking fleet fuel usage for all of its fleet vehicles for many years. All of the costs and usage data have to come through the main headquarters in Little Rock. We will continue to track the data on a monthly basis for usage and costs in accordance with standards. The data will be collected and managed by our Fleet Manager or Building Maintenance Coordinator and/or Inmate Services Supervisor/Radio Tower Site Maintenance. The data will then be reviewed by the Energy Team. Current fleet average – BENCHMARK – 15.46 mpg – Appendix II

27 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 1.3: Identify and implement five (5) initiatives to reduce power consumption in the data center or server room by 10/31/09. Example 1 (from DIS): With recent efforts of equipment replacement, consolidation, and virtualization of systems, DIS has seen a 5.84% reduction in data center electrical usage as reported in FY2008. DIS will continue to manage the State Data Center for optimal energy efficiency, but in the event that new state systems are developed and hosted in the data center or other agencies choose to relocate systems to the data center, the power load may increase. DIS may not see an overall power reduction, but will work to reduce consumption per operating system, which even if the total number of servers goes up and overall usage does not decrease, DIS should be able to show power consumption per operating system going down by the requested percentages of 20% reduction by 2014 and 30% reduction by 2017.

28 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide Objective 1.3.1: Develop and document initiatives by October 31, 2009 Initiatives: 1.3.1.1: Hot aisle/cold aisle configuration – maintain existing and continue in other areas as new equipment is commissioned and old equipment is decommissioned. 1.3.1.2: Air flow management - maintain existing and continue in other areas as necessary with the proper placement of perforated / vented floor tiles, KoldLok brush grommets, SubZero cubes and blanking panels. 1.3.1.3: Cable management –to provide improved air flow under the raised floor area of the data center, continue the removal of decommissioned power and data cabling, utilize cable management trays in applicable areas, utilize structured cabling, and work toward meeting design specifications outlined in the TIA-942 “Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers.”

29 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide 1.3.1.4: Server consolidation and virtualization – DIS is in the process of a server optimization project that is composed of two efforts: Optimization of existing server resources using virtualization. This project is in progress with physical hardware for the new virtual infrastructure on site and other infrastructure preparations underway (i.e. racks, electrical, storage, toolsets, etc). We expect a majority of the servers used by DIS (i.e. internal servers) to be migrated to the virtual infrastructure by the end of 2009. Other appropriate workloads should be migrated by the end of FY2010. Creation of a new line of service to offer virtual hosting to our customers. This offering will take advantage of the same virtual infrastructure above, but will offer a new line of service to customers that will save the State of Arkansas a considerable amount of energy, hardware, and administration costs for those participating in the service. On average, approximately $3,000 is saved for every workload that is virtualized. Advanced availability and recovery services will be available as a part of this service for customers who have a limited tolerance for downtime.

30 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide 1.3.1.5: Install equipment that meets the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ENERGY STAR certification and/or Electronic Product Environmental Assessment (EPEAT) rating requirements as old equipment is refreshed or for new equipment installations. This would be as applicable for network and data center server equipment. 1.3.1.6: Replace aging power and environmental systems, i.e. centralized Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS), battery string, diesel generator, and computer room air conditioners or handlers (CRACs or CRAHs). Equipment with variable speed drives should be installed. 1.3.1.7: Power distribution – bring transformers, switchgear, backup power systems closer to the load (servers, etc. in the data center). Ten to 15 percent of total electrical power is lost in these systems. Efficiencies can be gained by having these systems closer to the load.

31 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from AEDC): Objective 1.3.1: Develop a means to measure power consumption relative to work output, for example with metered rack power distribution units Objective 1.3.2: Develop administrative policies that support green initiatives Objective 1.3.3: Consolidate physical servers using virtualization software. This saves on software license costs, reduces energy requirements for physical servers and reduces cooling requirements Objective 1.3.4: Implement an IT Asset Management system to help prevent duplication and to utilize surplus hardware and software already in inventory Objective 1.3.5: Review and revise laptop and desktop computer lifecycles. Most are based on a three year life. With recent improvements to CPU, memory and drive capacities the useful life of most can be extended which results in IT savings and helps environment performance

32 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from AEDC): Continued from previous slide Objective 1.3.6: Acquire newer model UPS system. Recent UPS systems are about 30% more energy efficient than models from just a few years ago Objective 1.3.7: Implement Storage Virtualization software. A majority of datacenters have storage that is allocated but not used. Storage Virtualization allocates on an as needed basis which maximizes storage usage and helps reduce the amount of physical storage devices

33 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 1. 4: Identify and implement five (5) initiatives to reduce power consumption in the office and support areas by 10/31/09 Example 1 (from ADEQ): The EMS Manual Section 5.C.1 Use of Electricity discusses initiatives with personal computers, printers and copiers as well as setting limits for non-essential electrical items in an employee’s work space. For example: employees are not allowed to have small appliances such as refrigerators, microwaves, heaters, etc. in their work space. Non-essential items such as radios, grow lights, decorative lighting, etc. are also not permitted. Employees are informed by their supervisors as to what items are and are not allowed. ADEQ has implemented power saver settings on each computer in the agency as well as requiring staff to turn their computers off at the end of the day.

34 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide 1. Policy restricting certain electrical items in offices (Appendix 2) 2. Building lighting on timers/photo sensors 3. Printers/copiers limited to shared areas 4. ADEQ buildings utilize energy efficient lighting 5. Adjustments and continued monitoring of HVAC system at main building.

35 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ASCL): The Arkansas State Crime Laboratory will institute the immediate reduction in power consumption by the following initiatives. Initiative 1: All non-essential lighting in hallways and common areas will be curtailed Initiative 2: Copiers will be programmed to shut down at close of business, this includes fax operations Initiative 3: Promote the policy of turning off all equipment on the desktop Initiative 4: Set thermostats at 76 degrees in all office areas Initiative 5: Limit the lighting in office spaces to the minimum necessary to accomplish ordinary office tasks. It should be noted that this is not recommended for laboratory space which makes up the majority of the space in the ASCL.

36 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan – Goal 2: Promote agency operations and practices that will reduce, to the extent practicable, the environmental impact of the agency's overall operation Strategy 2.1: Materials, Products and Services – develop new or revise existing standards and criteria for purchasing materials, products or services which: – Align with the Environmental Protection Agency's ENERGY STAR Qualified Products program – Consider the availability of bio-based products, as required by Act 542 of 2005 – Express a preference for the purchase of products that are made from, and/or packaged with, recycled materials, and products that are, themselves recyclable in whole or in part

37 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 2, Strategy 2.1: Example 1 (from ADEQ): ADEQ’s Environmental Management System Team developed Environmentally Preferable Purchasing (EPP) Guidelines (Appendix 4) for the Agency. The EPP Guidelines cover all the objectives in Goal 2 and extend beyond to include such things as lawn and landscape maintenance, green cleaning, and integrated pest management. ADEQ has a Green Cleaning Policy (Appendix 5) and has green janitorial services under a contract. We also have an Integrated Pest Management Policy (Appendix 6) that incorporates preventative pest management techniques in order to minimize the environmental impacts of pesticides.

38 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 2, Strategy 2.2: Fuel-efficient Fleet - establish criteria for a more fuel-efficient fleet that will result in a more fuel-efficient agency and State-vehicle fleet Example 1 (from ADH): ADH shall establish criteria for a more fuel-efficient fleet that will result in a more fuel-efficient agency and State-vehicle fleet. ADH staff shall be encouraged to budget for the purchase of vehicles with higher MPG ratings and hybrid products. Consideration shall be given to life-cycle cost versus lowest-bid approach when purchasing vehicles, within the requirements established by the Office of State Purchasing. In an effort to reduce fuel consumption and air emissions, drivers of ADH vehicles shall not idle the engine for more than 3 consecutive minutes per hour. ADH shall encourage vendor delivery vehicles to turn off their engines when possible. This does not apply to: Vehicles assisting in an emergency situation

39 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADH): Continued from previous slide Vehicles housing equipment that must be used inside or in association with the vehicle to perform basic functions Vehicles idling while in traffic Vehicles idling because of mechanical problems which cause the vehicle to remain motionless and are out of the operator’s control Vehicles idling to ensure adequate visibility through the vehicle’s windows. When possible, ice and frost should be physically removed from the exterior of vehicle windows. Employees traveling to the same site shall be encouraged to share transportation in a state vehicle to reduce fuel costs. While fuel savings is a goal, at no time shall services provided by Arkansas Department of Health be sacrificed for energy savings.

40 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.3: Recycling Program – establish or revitalize recycling programs for paper and plastic waste, and participate in any statewide equipment recycling program that may be established for equipment that can be utilized by other State agencies Example 1 (from ABA): General Products - ABA has a goal to implement an expanded recycling program to include paper, plastic, glass, cardboard, aluminum, and decommissioned IT hardware plus cabling (data and power) and metals by July 1, 2010. ABA has been participating in the State’s paper recycling program for the past year, but ABA is taking the initiative on its own to expand its in-house recycling program to include plastic, glass, cardboard and aluminum.

41 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide Buildings: As an owner, ABA encourage recycling by providing collection stations within each of its facilities in which ABA staff and tenants routinely transfer recycled materials from inside building to the building’s exterior pickup bins. These recycle items include white office paper, mixed paper, card stock, manila envelopes, junk mail/envelopes, coated paper, magazines, newspapers (including comics), soft bound books, such as telephone books and manuals, chip board, corrugated cardboard, paper ream wrappers, and grocery sacks. Signs are posted near recycling bins with information on what can and cannot be recycled. Building Materials/By-products: ABA has internal recycling guidelines with respect to building materials, such as steel/aluminum and the recycling of oil products resulting from work being performed by ABA building operations staff; and the recycling other personal products disposed of by ABA employees within our buildings.

42 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide ABA has a goal to install additional bins within ABA specifically earmarked for personal aluminum items, small batteries, plastic, etc. in ABA employee break rooms for the recycling upon available funding or July 1, 2010, whichever is sooner. Funds from aluminum recycling will be utilized by ABA staff for the annual holiday potluck. In order to conserve use of employee time, fuel and vehicle mileage, any and all recycling of items in which a state vehicle is to be used for the transport of these collections, will only be done in a coordinated effort in connection to other errands or duties being done near the drop off/recycling areas. For those designated employees who have volunteered and live or travel near recycling centers may be allowed to leave 30 minutes early (as their only reimbursement) at the end of their day to make such drop offs with their own vehicles. As a building owner, ABA has occasion to recycle metal and materials as a result of capital improvements performed on our properties. These items are to be taken to proper recycling points such as Sol Alman for proper disposal of scrap metal.

43 Suggestions for improving your StEP Continued from previous slide In certain situations, ABA may receive monies for the recycling of certain metals which is returned to ABA funding sources and used for ABA’s building portfolio. Electronics and Toners - ABA’s computers and electronics are typically utilized until they are no longer a viable functioning piece of equipment. Items from the computers (RAM) are reused within other computers wherever practical. ABA currently participates with the Department of Finance and Administration Marketing and Distribution Office regarding the recycling of Electronic equipment which is no longer viable for ABA purposes. Items are typically sent to M/R on a bi-annual basis and for larger amounts of items to recycle, ABA will look to the contract through the Office of Procurement (intergovernmental agreement with the Federal Prison Industries, Inc Recycling Business Group http://www.arkansas.gov/dfa/procurement/documents/information_technology.p df) Toners for printers and copiers are recycled with recycling vendors on an as needed basis. http://www.arkansas.gov/dfa/procurement/documents/information_technology.p df

44 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADEQ): ADEQ has participated in the state recycling program since its inception in 1994, and we have additionally been collecting plastic bottles, metal cans, and glass jars since 2004. We utilize collection stations throughout our headquarters building in North Little Rock, and our janitorial contract was written to include the routine transfer of recycled materials from inside the building to the outside pickup bins. Our employee orientation includes an introduction to ADEQ’s recycling program, and there is a Recycling Committee that oversees the implementation of the Department’s recycling program. The state paper recycling contract was recently revised in response to EO 09-07, and we are currently working to get a proper bin in place that will function for the collection of paper. We are also currently in contact with a vendor to obtain a bin and pickup services that will allow us to continue collecting plastic bottles and metal cans.

45 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide ADEQ also has a detailed policy in place to reuse and recycle our computers and other electronics as they are retired or replaced (Appendix 7). Developed in coordination with DF&A and DIS, our policy provides for refurbishing our older computers, safely removing existing data, and reconfiguring them with properly licensed and free software to retain their highest value and greatest potential for reuse. These refurbished computers are then sold at market prices, with the revenues distributed in accordance with Act 1410 of 2001. Electronic equipment that can’t be reused or sold is properly cleaned of data and sent to M&R for resale, reuse, or recycling according to M&R’s procedures.

46 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide Lastly, there is a variety of smaller-scale initiatives for recycling, managed by individuals or sections within ADEQ. Although not part of our “official” recycling program, these other initiatives provide the staff at ADEQ with additional recycling opportunities, including: used motor oil small batteries CDs egg cartons ADEQ has reduced its solid waste generation by 36% since 2005 as a result of its recycling program.

47 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.4: Lighting Systems - establish and implement policies and practices that will reduce energy consumption attributable to lighting systems Example 1 (from ABA): ABA will take the staged approach to the implementation of building system upgrades because of the interactions among all the energy flows within a building. Each stage includes changes that will affect the upgrades performed in subsequent stages, thus setting the overall process up for the greatest energy and cost savings possible. Lighting upgrades come early in the process, because the lighting system affects heating and cooling loads, power quality, and improves the electrical load which can free up circuits for other or future electrical loads. The ABA will continue to utilize guidance such as the Energy Star Building Manual and others to ensure decisions regarding modifications, renovations, and installations will result in the most cost effective approach.

48 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide Buildings – Along with ABA employees, Tenant’s lighting systems should be turned off when they are not needed (using natural light) or when the office/area is vacant whenever operationally possible. The janitorial staff is responsible for turning on the lights to conduct their cleaning activities and also to turn the lights back off when their tasks are complete. Building Operations staff will create preventive maintenance (PM) tasks to periodically monitor the contractors and report findings to ABA’s Financial Management office. Periodic reminders will be sent to the Janitorial Managers to stress the importance of their staff taking a proactive approach to turning lights off. PMs will also be created to periodically review lighting controls with timers or photo sensors. Facility supervisors are charged with evaluating each interior and exterior lighting system to determine if additional lighting control is necessary to reduce energy consumption. This includes installing lighting sensors in appropriate areas. Reducing energy costs is an individual responsibility. Educating staff and tenants and then enforcing the

49 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide policies to comply with turning lights off when they are not needed (using natural light) or when the office/area is vacant will save more energy than installing occupancy sensors and the agency will not incur the costs associated with retrofitting existing switches to occupancy sensors. To facilitate manual management of lighting and installation of occupancy sensor in the future, ABA will survey areas where lighting is controlled from a central panel board or existing lighting control contactor and (subject to availability of funding) rewire areas and install switches to allow for more localized control of fixtures. Lighting Conversion – Conversion to natural light whereby natural lighting is maximize to its fullest potential is an ABA goal. The use of natural light is dependent upon numerous factors, location of windows, time of day, time of year, and/or window type. For instance, one may not want to use natural light on a hot summer day (window facing east or west) with single pane windows.

50 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide The additional heat load on the area during the summer months might result in more energy use to cool and condition the area. Education and mandatory policy adherence will set the tone for conserving energy. Where natural light is not practical, then ABA has an existing policy for retrofitting existing fluorescent fixtures with energy efficient T8, T5 lamps and electronic ballasts with in-house staff as well as through capital improvement projects. ABA will continue to become more energy-savings minded in choosing replacement lamps, ballasts, and fixtures. Recently, ABA has realized the benefits of upgrading fixtures to super T8 lamps and ballasts. Building Operations staff will continue to upgrade fixtures in- house and through capital improvement contracts. Since one size does not fit all, ABA will continue to evaluate the space needs to determine the correct fixture, ballast, lamps combinations for each application to ensure maximum energy reduction without compromising workplace lighting quality. ABA will continue to install CFL lamps instead of incandescent bulbs when feasible and practical.

51 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide The ABA will install induction lamps in high maintenance areas where practical and feasible. ABA is currently working to replace ballasts and lamps in all T-12 fixtures with more energy-efficient lighting by installing electronic ballasts and T-8 bulbs. See also the ABA Minimum Standards and Criteria Sections 2-802 and 803. Within the first twelve months of plan implementation, the Building Operations staff will evaluate the facilities and determine where areas exist that will benefit from installing occupancy sensors. ABA will install the sensors as time and funding is available either through in-house labor or capital improvement contracts. In ABA private offices, conference rooms, storage rooms and areas with individual light switches, ABA will evaluate installing replacement room switches with occupancy sensor style switches to ensure lighting is only on when the room is occupied. Selected sensors will include a manual over-ride to allow the room lights to be turned off when natural light is sufficient or when presentations

52 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide require reduced lighting. Subject to availability of funding, ABA will make these upgrades by June 30, 2011. During the first twelve months of plan implementation, the Building Operations staff will purchase light meters and conduct an audit of the lighting in all ABA facilities. Reports will be developed to identify existing foot candles of lighting per area of the facilities. Areas will be identified to modify existing lighting levels to an average illumination of 40 FC. Once the spaces have been modified to 40 FC, task lighting fixtures will be given to ABA employees that require additional lighting due to medical conditions and/or age related eyesight problems or as required performing their individual work related task. Lastly, ABA has diligently replaced 95% of all bulb type exit signs and replaced with LED. ABA will continue to replace the remaining fixtures to LED.

53 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from Military Dept.): The Military Department of Arkansas is committed to upgrading all lighting fixtures to the most energy efficient fixtures available. Objective 2.4.1: The Military Department of Arkansas strongly encourages and practices the turning off of all lighting systems during non-operating hours and the Energy Team is to develop official policy for this subject during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2010. Objective 2.4.2: The Military Department of Arkansas continues to promote the replacement of incandescent bulbs with ENERGY STAR fluorescent bulbs. Attachment G (Campaign Plan) provides the 2008 campaign plan in the form of an email that was disseminated throughout the organization. Attachment H (Replacement Stats) reveals that the Military Department of Arkansas replaced 1,046 less efficient lights / lighting systems for a total dollar amount of $151,313.59.

54 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from Military Dept.): Continued from previous slide Objective 2.4.3: The Military Department of Arkansas encourages the use of occupancy light sensors to prevent energy waste in unoccupied areas and/or buildings. DCSEN, Arkansas Army National Guard, with the help of Stuck Associates is to include the purchase and installation of occupancy light sensors when developing the FY 2010 construction standards manual. This manual will be utilized for all new construction projects and light sensors will be purchased / installed for new construction projects. Objective 2.4.4: The Energy Team will produce policy that will maximize use of natural lighting whenever possible while remaining consistent with temperature control. Completion Date: 30 June 2010 Objective 2.4.5: The Energy Team will produce policy to remove and reduce other non-essential lighting. Completion Date: 30 June 2010

55 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.5: Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning Systems - establish measures to ensure that Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems operate at reduced levels during non-operating hours Example 1 (from ADEQ): During the first year at ADEQ’s new headquarters, FY2008, the HVAC operation was devoted to fine tuning the system and correcting any problems that arose as a result of its new installation. After approximately a year of operation and extensive analysis and consultation with the companies that installed and programmed the system it was determined that there were several modifications that could be made in the computerized control program that would result in significant energy savings.

56 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide As of July 1, 2009 the following HVAC energy saving measures were put into effect: Main Building Since ventilation air is not needed during unoccupied hours, the cooling and heating minimum airflows on the building’s 151 VAV (variable airflow volume) terminals have been reduced to near zero during these hours. The unoccupied cooling thermostat set point was increased to 85 degrees and the unoccupied heating thermostat set point was reduced to 60 degrees. During unoccupied hours, 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday and all day on weekends, the building’s ERU (Energy Recovery Unit) is shut down and the drives on the two AHUs (Air Handling Units) have been reduced to approximately 30 percent air flow.

57 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide Initially, not all of the FPTs (fan powered terminals) were programmed to activate when heating was called for during the building’s occupied hours. Consequently, all FPTs have been re-programmed to activate when heating is called for. The improved distribution of the heated air reduces the volume of gas needed to produce the desired temperature. The VAV terminals for the building’s 13 conference rooms have been programmed to go to minimum air flow when their overhead lights are off and ramp up to normal air flow when the lights come on. Air Cooled Chiller & Chilled Water Pumping System The building’s chiller has been programmed to be off when outdoor air temperature (OAT) is less than 40 degrees. This ensures that when all the VAV

58 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide terminals are in the heating mode, they are not starting from 55 degree supply air, but from a higher temperature, which will reduce the simultaneous heating and cooling and result in energy savings. Because of the amount of glass on the exterior of the building, the chiller should not be necessary when the OAT is less than 40 degrees. Hot Water Boilers The frequent cycling of the building’s three boilers has necessitated the replacement of one of the boilers’ gas valve trains during the system’s first year and one-half of operation. To reduce the cycling, the control band on boilers has been increased to reduce boiler cycling. The reduced cycling will result in less wear on the gas valve trains and therefore increase their longevity.

59 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ADEQ): Continued from previous slide Laboratory: During unoccupied hours, 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday and all day on weekends, the laboratory’s ERU is shut down and the drive on the laboratory’s AHU has been reduced to approximately 30 percent air flow. The laboratory’s two exhaust fans, seven snorkel vents and seven fume hoods operate during occupied hours to evacuate any toxic fumes that might accumulate when the laboratory is in use. These fans have been programmed to shut off from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m., Monday through Friday and all day on weekends. A daytime setback switch has been installed that will allow the exhausts to be activated if the lab is in use after normal hours or on weekends, and will allow them to be deactivated if the lab is not in use during normal daytime hours. Since ventilation air is not needed during unoccupied hours, the cooling and heating minimum air flows of the laboratory building’s 22 VAV terminals have been reduced to near zero during these hours. The unoccupied cooling thermostat set-point was increased to 85 degrees and the unoccupied heating thermostat set-point was decreased to 60 degrees.

60 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.6: Computer Equipment – establish policies and practices designed to ensure that all electrically-powered equipment, including computer equipment, is turned off when not in use, and that personal computers are configured with default settings that ensure that computers go into "sleep mode" after 30 minutes or less of non-use Example 1 (from ACIC): ACIC is a large scale user of computers, printers, monitors and other peripherals. ACIC has implemented initiatives to lower the energy consumption needed for the use of this equipment. One initiative that is currently in progress is to replace all of the CRT monitors with LCD flat panel monitors as CRT monitors use an electron gun that requires more energy than any other part of the computer. All of the new monitors are Energy Star compliant and therefore only use 1 to 2 watts of power while in sleep mode. Given that ACIC uses approximately 100 monitors and that LCD monitors use only one quarter of the energy of a CRT monitor the average energy savings, assuming an energy charge of $.08 kWh, is estimated to be $6307.20 per year just on the monitor use.

61 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ACIC): Continued from previous slide Additionally, ACIC will create a group policy in the network active directory to have all monitors go into standby mode after 10 minutes of inactivity. It is estimated that this will save an additional $50.00 per year per monitor in energy costs. Example 2 (from DIS): Effective July 9, 2009, EPA has strengthened the requirements for earning the ENERGY STAR in Version 5.0. For Desktop/integrated desktop and notebook computers, products must meet stringent TEC requirements for estimated energy consumption. DIS plans to purchase and install equipment that meets the ENERGY STAR certification and/or EPEAT rating requirements as it is refreshed or for new installations as applicable. EPEAT is a system that helps purchasers evaluate, compare, and select electronic products based on environmental attributes.

62 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide The EPEAT system currently covers desktop and laptop computers, thin clients, workstations, and computer monitors. Desktops, laptops, and monitors that meet 23 required environmental performance criteria may be registered in EPEAT by manufacturers in 40 countries worldwide. Registered products are rated Gold, Silver, or Bronze depending on the percentage of 28 optional criteria they meet above the baseline criteria. EPEAT operates an ongoing verification program to assure the credibility of the registry. Per the DIS October 21, 2009 equipment inventory, DIS has EPEAT rated equipment at the following levels: 0% Bronze, 0% Silver, and 15.7% Gold. This 15.7% Gold represents 49 of 293 computers, which are primarily Dell laptop / notebook computers. By FY2011, the DIS’ goal upon equipment refresh is to reach the level of: 25% Silver, and 50% Gold for all desktop and laptop / notebook computers. A more specific date and target percentages will be determined with the development of an action plan for this objective.

63 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.7: Paper Usage – establish policies and practices designed to reduce the use of paper Example 1 (from Dept. of Rural Services): Establish policies and practices to reduce the amount paper used by our office. Will determine paper usage by 12/31/09 so DRS can reduce the amount of paper used in the office by 25% by 7/01/11. List of how to reduce amount of paper: – Use email to communicate with agency employees and Commission. – For grant application requests use email, fax or direct to our website to download. – For grant information requests use email, fax or direct to our website. – Establish a multi-user station for printing and copying – Implement duplexer add-ons to printers which will automatically print dual-side prints of multi-page documents – Use electronic forms when possible.

64 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ASCL): Objective 1: Since July 1, 2006, the ASCL has reduced paper consumption by 32 cases, from 182 cases to 150 cases, as of June 30, 2009. It should be pointed out that the ASCL has electronically stored and generated all laboratory analysis reports since September 1, 2006. The laboratory has software in place to electronically send analysis reports to every law enforcement agency and prosecuting attorney in the state. The laboratory has notified every agency in the state that the laboratory will cease to mail paper reports on April 1, 2010. Objective 2: The ASCL will determine the baseline usage of paper by December 31, 2009. Objective 3: The ASCL will set paper usage standards by December 31, 2009. Objective 4: The ASCL will implement electronic bills immediately. The laboratory only bills for analyst’s testimony in civil court cases. This occurs at most five times per year.

65 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ASCL): Continued from previous slide Objective 5: The ASCL has implemented all electronic administration forms as of July 1, 2009. Objective 6: All personal (on-desk) printers are utilized only by supervisors or others who have the need to print confidential information. Objective 7: The majority of printers in the Laboratory have always been networked printers and copiers. Multi-user scanners are utilized as appropriate; however, scanning is an integral portion of most employees’ day. Objective 8: All printers purchased within the past two years have duplex functionality. Objective 9: All Laboratory forms and manuals are available online as a PDF file.

66 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from DIS): Objective 2.7.1: Reduce internal paper consumption by 25% by 07/01/11 Key Indicators 2.7.1a: Determine baseline paper usage by 12/31/09 – retroactive baseline from 07/01/09 2.7.1b: Set paper output standards by 12/31/09 DIS currently has default printing options set to duplex queues and will work to eliminate non-duplex printers. 2.7.1c: Implement paperless detailed billing delivery by 07/01/10 The DIS billing system has this capability, but more customers need to take advantage of the service. DIS plans to convert to all paperless billing by first quarter FY2011. Customers who desire printed billing will incur a fee for this service. A target date will be determined later via the development of an action plan for this objective.

67 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide 2.7.1d: Implement electronic administration forms by 07/01/11 For this objective and key indicator, the action plan that will be developed will focus on Human Resources forms, travel forms, and time sheets. DIS administration understands that clearance from Legislative Audit is required for automated forms that do not require a signature. Getting this approval will be the first item in the action plan. Objective 2.7.2: Phase-out the use of personal on-desk printers DIS will develop a policy by first quarter FY2011. At the current time, there is no documented policy, only an unwritten practice to not replace printers as the device reaches the end of useful life unless there are special circumstances. A date will be determined with the development of an action plan for this objective.

68 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide Objective 2.7.3: Establish multi-user print stations that include printers, copiers, and scanners DIS has approximately 25 multi-user print stations established. A target date and number will be determined with the development of an action plan for this objective. Objective 2.7.4: Implement duplexer add-ons to printers which will automatically print dual-side prints of multi-page documents DIS uses default print queues that are set to duplex for dual-side print of multi- page documents and will work to eliminate non-duplex printers.

69 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from DIS): Continued from previous slide Objective 2.7.5: Encourage users to use the setting of typeface fonts and default page margins in word-processed or other agency-printed documents, so as to maximize paper and toner use Key Indicators: 2.7.5.1: Update online templates to utilize margin and fonts 2.7.5.2: Use toner saving fonts, such as the Ecofont. This is using the Spranq eco sans 10 font which uses up to 20% less ink/toner. http://www.ecofont.eu/ecofont_en.html\ http://www.ecofont.eu/ecofont_en.html\ Objective 2.7.6: Encourage and require, where appropriate, the use of electronic, "paperless" communication between agency employees, in lieu of printed materials.

70 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.8: Reducing Non-essential Electricity Usage - establish agency-wide policies designed to reduce "plug load" attributable to the use of non-essential appliances, such as personal coffee makers, toasters, space heaters, refrigerators, microwave ovens, fans, televisions, radios, etc. Example 1: Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality Plug-Load Policy Energy codes and green building initiatives are only beginning to address control of the growing electrical demand of plug loads. Many plug in products continue to consume energy even when turned OFF; a cell phone charger left plugged into a wall receptacle continues to consume energy even when your cell phone is disconnected. Plug loads or “phantom” loads are so prevalent in today's buildings that they can account for as much as 15% of a homes total energy consumption and 9% of a commercial buildings total energy consumption just through plug in devices.

71 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1: Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality Plug-Load Policy Continued from previous slide The plug load (which includes appliances such as coffee makers, toasters, space heaters, copiers, faxes, computers, monitors, refrigerators, lamps, decorations, fans, collectibles, televisions, DVD/VCR players, etc.) is significant. It is the single largest opportunity to cut energy costs with no capital investment. These devices individually are almost negligible in terms of power consumed, but together they add up to tens of thousands of dollars in energy costs. Plug load represents a two- fold burden: first, the electric power they directly consume and second, the additional cooling load on HVAC equipment. Arkansas Insurance Department, Risk Management Division, Facility Safety Inspections has addressed issues that not only affect energy usage, but also involve safety issues in State owned and leased buildings.

72 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1: Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality Plug-Load Policy Continued from previous slide Inspections in our building have revealed many plug-load issues that must be addressed, including the following: – Inappropriate use of extensions – Absence of surge protectors – Prohibited use of fans and space heaters – Electrical cords in disrepair and/or inadequate grounding – Toaster ovens in tenant spaces ( note: they are only allowed in employee break rooms) – Toaster ovens plugged in extension cords – Coffee pots in tenant spaces – Refrigerators in tenant spaces

73 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1: Arkansas Department of Environmental Quality Plug-Load Policy Continued from previous slide Plug load control is an integral part of a comprehensive energy management strategy. The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that office plug load represents 26% of energy use in commercial offices. In keeping with tenant safety, the energy code and green building initiatives, ADEQ will adopt this plug- load policy. We must lead by example and ensure that we at ADEQ provide a safe working environment, while also conserving energy for the future. All small appliances personal coffee pots, personal toaster ovens, fans, space heaters, small refrigerators and any personal plug-load appliances will not be authorized in the building. Further inspections will be conducted periodically.

74 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADH): ADH shall institute measures designed to reduce "plug load" attributable to the use of non-essential appliances located in individual offices, such as personal coffee makers, toasters, space heaters, refrigerators, microwave ovens, televisions, radios, etc. Because of the age of the Central Office main facility, electrical circuitry is near maximum load capacity. For safety, as well as energy saving purposes, the following non-essential small appliances shall be removed immediately from individual work spaces: toasters, space heaters, mini-refrigerators, coffee makers, microwave ovens, televisions and radios. This procedure applies to all ADH owned or leased facilities. Non-essential small appliances found operating in individual work spaces shall be subject to confiscation by Center or LHU administrative staff. Employees operating non-essential appliances in individual offices shall be considered to be in violation of Item 29 of the Employee Discipline Policy - Minimum Conduct and Performance, which cites “failure to comply with standard operating procedures and practices”. Violators shall be subject to discipline.

75 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADH): Continued from previous slide There are designated break areas in Central Office, Public Health Laboratory, Freeway Medical Tower and each local health unit. These areas have been identified as having sufficient electrical circuitry to handle non-essential small appliances such as those listed above. For a list of designated break areas in Central Office, see Attachment II. For information on designated break areas in Freeway Medical Tower and Local Health Units, see Attachment III.

76 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.9: Training / Culture of energy awareness – establish a training program for agency employees and building Energy Managers in order to ensure better understanding and support of Green Initiatives Example 1 (from ADEQ): ADEQ’s employees were introduced to the Department’s Environmental Management System in September 2008 through a 30-minute PowerPoint presentation given by the EMS lead coordinator. The presentation will be given twice a year to make sure that all new employees are aware of the EMS and their part in it. Every two weeks, the EMS lead coordinator sends out an Envirofact to help reinforce the EMS and increase awareness about conserving energy and resources. Fuel conservation is encouraged through our EMS procedures.

77 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ADH): ADH shall establish a training program for agency employees in order to ensure better understanding and support of Green Initiatives. Training shall be developed by the Energy Team in PowerPoint form and placed on the ADH A-Train. The Energy Team shall also develop a training presentation for ADH Executive Staff, which explains the policy, procedures and enforcement measures throughout the agency. Energy efficiency tips shall be posted on the ADH intranet.

78 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from ABA): While ABA continues to strive to make buildings more energy efficient, occupants have a major role in reducing energy use through their choices in consumption and their behavior. The energy policy contains guidelines to encourage employees and tenants to reduce energy use and support ABA’s reduction goals. Employees and tenants will be expected to reduce their use of energy through the intelligent use of lighting, computers, heating, cooling, appliances and office equipment. The goal of the awareness and training is to make the tenants and staff more aware of their impact on energy consumption, and thus the operating costs of the agency which do have direct impact on the environment. When energy policies are created or revised, administrators will communicate the updates and their importance during their regular sectional meetings or during scheduled safety training meetings.

79 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide During the new hire employee orientation, introduce the agency’s energy policy and our commitment to reduce, reuse, and recycle and encourage participation. Energy awareness materials will be available to all employees on the agency’s network. Utilize informational cost effective websites for pre-printed material for distribution such as www.energystart.gov.www.energystart.gov Consider utilizing the ABA website to post information for tenants and other state agencies. Communicate educational materials with employees and tenants by e-mails or e- newsletters, and provide links to more information on energy conservation. Offer links on energy efficiency presentations that talk about energy efficiency and remind our employees and/or tenants of our involvement in energy conservation.

80 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide Challenge staff to suggest ideas for improving energy conservation and how to promote the ideas to encourage participation. Display posters and other materials in common areas to communicate energy efficiency messages and provide information on how to get tenants and employees involved in the efforts. Educate staff to encourage the purchase or replacement of office equipment that has earned the ENERGY STAR qualification, which allows them to use less energy to perform regular tasks, and automatically enter a low-power mode when not in use. Encourage special events such as “Earth Hour” which is an annual event that asks communities, businesses and governments to switch off the lights at 8.30pm on March 28th, for 1 hour. It does raise awareness of climate change and encourage people to take action to combat it.

81 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 3 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide This event can be expanded to encourage ABA buildings to schedule an hour or period that the lowest possible usage can be pre-arranged with tenants. Encourage communication between tenants and building maintenance staff and offer an easy way to make comments or suggestions on energy saving ideas. Empower all building occupants to express ideas to ABA staff of how they see that their offices or the building can reduce consumption. Implement “Green Building Rules” in all ABA buildings by March 1, 2010.

82 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.10: Central Plant – evaluate central plant for energy conservation opportunities Example 1 (from ABA): Many ABA buildings were constructed prior to the energy crisis of the mid-70’s when energy cost was inconsequential in the building construction industry. Therefore, the opportunities for energy-efficient retrofits within ABA facilities is widespread. Over the past 15 years, ABA has been upgrading the Central Plant heating and cooling equipment in buildings owned by ABA as a part of our central equipment modernization program. To the maximum extent possible, new equipment is selected based on life cycle costing with the most energy efficient equipment available being considered. When possible, smaller modular boilers and chillers are installed to replace a single larger piece of equipment. This provides ABA with lower operating and maintenance cost and partial or full redundancy. ABA will complete the modernization of the heating and cooling central equipment in all ABA owned building by June 30, 2010.

83 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide ABA will continue to modernize central plant air-handlers in each building subject to the availability of funding and our tenant’s needs. ABA will conduct energy audits of all ABA facilities in accordance with Act 1494 of 2009. Future decisions regarding energy efficiency initiatives will be based partial upon the audit. ABA has installed air-side and water-side economizers in ABA owned facilities as a part of our overall central equipment modernization program and will continue to install this type of equipment where appropriate and economically feasible. ABA has installed VFD on pumps and motors in ABA owned facilities as a part of our overall central equipment modernization program and will continue to install where appropriate and economical. ABA will continue to look at all possible energy savings initiative to include but not limited to thermal energy storage. ABA has replaced numerous chillers with high efficiency chillers to include highly efficient centrifugal magnetic bearing water

84 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide cooled chiller. ABA will continue to replace aged equipment with the high energy efficient chillers whenever practicable to meet the operational needs of the application when funding is available. Through re-calculation of the building load profiles, ABA ensures that all new central equipment is properly sized for the specific application. This often results in an overall reduction in equipment size and energy consumption. ABA has replaced numerous boilers with high efficiency models. ABA will continue to replace aged equipment with the high energy efficient boilers whenever practicable to meet the operational needs of the application when funding is available. ABA routinely evaluates the benefits of specifying power factor correction capacitors on major equipment purchase and includes these devices on all new chiller installations. ABA is also evaluating a pilot program to install capacitors on existing equipment in two ABA owned buildings and monitoring the power

85 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide consumption to quantify the savings potential for these types of devices. Power factor correction is accomplished by adding capacitors to major equipment or the whole building. These capacitors add a capacitance load to the electrical service which counteracts the inductive load naturally imposed by large electrical motors. This has the effect of normalizing the electrical power delivered to the building closer to a unity value of 1.0 or in other words, requiring the power delivered to the building or equipment to more closely match the actual power requirements of the system. This reduces KWh consumption and KW demand on the electrical grid.

86 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ASCL): The ASCL was renovated beginning in 1997 and continued through 2002. The entire infrastructure of the laboratory was evaluated and many systems were upgraded or replaced. The building was constructed in 1979 and was originally intended for office use. At the last minute the Executive and Legislative branches of state government decided to increase the square footage of the ASCL and add it to the existing plans to build a State Police Headquarters building. The renovation was undertaken to correct many of the problems that became apparent over the years with both state agencies sharing the same space. The increasing sophistication of scientific equipment and computer equipment made it imperative that a complete overhaul of the building infrastructure be given first priority. The ASCL-Hope Regional Laboratory was started in 2002 and occupied in April, 2004. All of the heating and cooling systems were new at that time. The laboratory at Hope uses a combination of commercial air conditioning and geo/groundwater.

87 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ASCL): Continued from previous slide The Hope facility has natural gas heating and cooling in the laboratory area. This was a decision made by the U of A because of the large volume of air needed for ventilation. The office area is tied to the geo/groundwater system used in the adjacent classroom building. Objective 1: Chiller plant replaced in 1999. Chillers are not used at ASCL Hope Regional Laboratory. Objective 2: Boiler system replaced in 2002. Boilers are not used at ASCL Hope Regional Laboratory.

88 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.11: Hot Water System(s) – Evaluate domestic hot water systems for energy conservation measures Example 1 (from ABA): Currently, ABA facilities’ domestic hot water systems are antiquated and do not possess the controls or variable frequency drive motors, and pumps necessary to save energy during operational and non-operating hours. Likewise, as proposed previously with HVAC system upgrades, ABA envisions a multi-stage approach to enhance the performance of the hot water systems prior to operating them at reduced levels as well. Operating the systems at reduced levels now would result in negative results. The following is an example of the actions taken over the next ten years as funding becomes available: Have a detailed energy audit conducted on all ABA facilities by the energy office as prescribed in Act 1494 of 2009 by FY2014. Retro-commission the facilities by FY2014.

89 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide Engineers to analyze the information gathered from the energy audit and the retro-commissioning and design projects to upgrade the domestic hot systems and install the necessary controls to effectively and efficiently operate the facilities. Based on the system design and performance standards, have each building EMCS system custom programmed to operate efficiently during operational hours and non-operational hours. An EMCS operating manual for building operators will need to be developed by the engineering team that accomplished step three above. In the interim, the Building Operators will do their best to manually control the temperature in the facility at reduced set points. However research will need to be conducted to be certain to not shorten the life span of the equipment by improperly controlling temperature outputs.

90 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.11: Hot Water System(s) – Evaluate domestic hot water systems for energy conservation measures Example 2 (from ADH): ADH shall evaluate domestic hot water systems(s) for energy conservation measures in all ADH facilities. There are no methods available to put the Central Office main domestic hot water system on a timed operation due to its configuration and age. The Public Health Laboratory utilizes 95% high-efficiency water heaters with integrally insulated storage tanks for domestic water service. Because Arkansas Plumbing Code requires that domestic hot water systems be maintained at 120ºF minimum, timed operation is not an option. ADH shall operate its systems at this minimum.

91 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.11: Hot Water System(s) – Evaluate domestic hot water systems for energy conservation measures Example 3 (from ADEQ): ADEQ headquarters uses solar panels to heat the hot water for its laboratory. The main building hot water systems are set at 120°F.

92 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.12: Building Envelope – Evaluate building envelope(s) for energy conservation measures Example 1 (from ASCL): The ASCL is concrete panel construction with insulation in the interior walls. There is not insulation between floors. The ASCL Hope Regional Laboratory is insulated with fiberglass batten insulation attached to the roof structure. The outside walls are brick construction with wall insulation. Objective 1: ABA currently has a project to replace 19-28 windows in the ASCL due to lack of insulating value. There are approximately 70 windows in the building. The windows are double pane construction. The windows at the ASCL-Hope Regional Laboratory are insulated double pane windows. There are only seven windows in the Hope laboratory.

93 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ABA): ABA currently has a critical maintenance/deferred maintenance plan that has identified approximately $20 million dollars of capital improvement needs. The detailed energy audit to be conducted on all ABA facilities by the State Energy office as prescribed in Act 1494 of 2009 by FY2014 will enhance ABA’s plans to upgrade windows and doors in the facilities. Roofs: When replacing roofing systems on ABA owned buildings, the amount and type of roof insulation will be evaluated to determine if additional insulation can be added to reduce heat gain and heat loss. ABA will perform life cycle cost analysis to determine if additional insulation is economically viable and (subject to availability of funding) increase insulation values. ABA also has an existing policy to inspect roofs and building exteriors following a major storm or rain event, to look for damage to the exterior envelope and make repairs as quickly as possible to prevent moisture intrusion into the building. This practice also minimizes damage to the envelope finishes and protects the building insulation system.

94 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide Windows and Doors: ABA will evaluate window treatment options for ABA owned buildings to identify the most effective treatment solutions available to reduce energy use and (subject to availability of funding) perform life cycle cost analysis to determine the most cost effective option for implementation. Options that may be considered include but are not limited to reflective solar films, interior shading devices, window replacement with energy efficient glass, and installation of exterior shading devices. ABA has an existing policy in place to limit public access into ABA owned buildings to the minimum number of exterior doors possible while meeting tenant and visitor needs. All other exterior doors are secured by card access and restricted to employee use only. This policy helps minimize the lost of building pressure control and infiltration of unconditioned air. Where practical, public entry is limited to entry doors with vestibules or revolving doors that minimize infiltration.

95 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 2 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide ABA will adjust all exterior door closures to the limits allowed by building codes and ADA guidelines and inspect all seals to ensure that infiltration of exterior air is reduced to the minimum possible. ABA will also evaluate the HVAC systems during the retro-commissioning process to determine if building pressurization controls can be added to further minimize infiltration and where economically feasible implement positive pressurization control.

96 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 1, Strategy 2.13: Water Conservation Example 1 (from ADEQ): ADEQ’s new headquarters has dual-flush toilets (optional half flush or full flush) and waterless urinals in the restrooms and low flow faucets to help conserve water. The landscaping uses regional plant species and a drip irrigation system to conserve water. The landscaping will be watered on an as-needed basis for the first two years to establish the plants. After the first two years, the landscaping will no longer be watered. There is a sprinkler system behind the building to water the lawn. The sprinkler system is only used when needed. ADEQ will collect water usage data on a monthly basis for its main headquarters and six field offices.

97 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 3: Integrate energy use considerations into maintenance plans Strategy 3.1: Enhance preventative and routine maintenance procedures to maximize energy efficiency Example 1 (from ADH): ADH shall enhance preventative and routine maintenance procedures to maximize energy efficiency. Physical Plant and county maintenance staff shall evaluate the central plant for energy conservation opportunities. Air and water side economizers, variable frequency drives (VFDs) for pumps and 2-way valves shall be installed. Single steam boiler shall be replaced with multiple modular hot water boilers parallel. Air lines in shop areas shall be kept leak free and the compressors turned off when the shop is unoccupied. Power shop equipment shall be turned off when not in use. Filters for HVAC shall be changed at regular intervals. Physical Plant staff and county maintenance staff shall perform regular inspections for pneumatic leaks and recommission high energy use equipment.

98 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 3: Integrate energy use considerations into maintenance plans Strategy 3.2: Integrate energy considerations into cleaning / janitorial activities Example 1 (from ADEQ): ADEQ has a Green Cleaning Policy (Appendix 5) and a contract is for green cleaning. Green cleaning includes preventative measures such as requiring ten feet of walk-off mats at outside entrances to prevent dirt from being carried into the building and HEPA filters in the vacuum cleaners that prevent the spread of dust and particulates. Microfiber mops are used to reduce water usage and cleaning products are purchased as concentrates by the cleaning company to reduce transportation costs due to weight. One custodian is on duty at ADEQ’s headquarters during regular working hours. The rest of the janitorial staff begin work at 4:30 p.m.

99 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 3: Integrate energy use considerations into maintenance plans Strategy 3.3: Evaluate high efficiency replacements of all equipment Example 1 (from ABA): Re-commissioning of High Energy Use Equipment - ABA currently upgrades system components with conserving energy as a priority. Equipment will continue to be replaced and upgraded utilizing high and premium efficiency products as applicable, practical and as funding limitations allow. Through the re-commissioning process, ABA will ensure that existing equipment and systems are operating as efficiently as possible.

100 Suggestions for improving your StEP Section III: Energy Plan - Goal 4: Integrate energy use considerations into capital improvement plans Example 1 (from ABA): ABA uses life cycle cost analysis to the maximum extent possible when planning replacement of energy using equipment. ABA will continue to use life cycle costing as a decision tool in the procurement of equipment directly purchased by ABA. ABA is committed to providing the most efficient equipment and systems possible in ABA owned facilities and will continue to require life cycle cost analysis in the design phase of all future capital improvement projects. ABA will develop efficiency standards for the operations and maintenance of ABA owned buildings pursuant to Act 1494 of 2009. While we currently do not have any new construction projects planned within the next year, ABA has four (4) four energy related projects scheduled for completion within the next 12 months:

101 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide #1Replacement of central heating boilers and pumps in #1 Capitol Mall. This project involves the replacement of 3 large steam boilers operating at approximately 65% efficiency sized to heat #1 Capitol Mall, the State Capitol, and #2 Capitol Mall with 2 new high efficiency (90%) hot water boilers sized to heat #1 Capitol Mall only. Heating water distribution pumps are being replaced with a high efficiency pump fitted with variable frequency drives to reduce pumping cost. The other buildings have had their own heating plants installed within the past 5 years. #2Replacement of central cooling chillers, towers and pumps at #1 Capitol Mall. This project replaces the 33-year old water chillers which operate at approximately.9 KW/Ton with three new high efficiency chillers operating at approximately.55 KW/Ton. One of the chillers will include a heat-pump module that will supplement the building heating water system at a reduced operating cost for energy.

102 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide #3Replacement of T-12 lighting in #1 Capitol Mall. Approximately 1000 fluorescent lighting fixtures utilizing T-12 lamps and magnetic ballast are being retro-fitted with new high efficiency T-8 lamps and electronic ballast. Many of these fixtures will have two of the existing four lamps removed further reducing energy consumption by the lighting system. This project if partially funded by an Entergy Demand Reduction Grant. Renovation of the 5 th floor in #1 Capitol Mall. This project will renovate approximately 70,000 SF of tenant space (approximately 24% of the building gross square footage). The project will include new high efficiency lighting with an automatic lighting control system, new HVAC system utilizing energy recovery of the exhaust air to pre-heat and pre-cool the ventilation air for this floor and also variable air volume air-handlers and zone boxes to provide the required air flow at the lowest energy cost. In addition, this floor will include a new direct digital

103 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide control (DDC) system for the HVAC equipment and the controls will be programmed for optimal energy efficiency. The DDC system will also be used to trend and document the energy performance of the system over time. Note: #1 Capitol Mall was included in the “Greening State Capitols” evaluation conducted by Wal*Mart in conjunction with the National Governors Association. The capital improvement projects outlined above were recommended in this study and are previously underway through funding made available through ABA’s capital reserve account.. NEW Sustainable/Green Building Coming Soon to ABA’s Portfolio: ABA has signed a lease with an option to purchase with a developer regarding the renovations of a landmark building located in downtown Little Rock at 900 West Capitol Avenue. The building was constructed in 1948 for Southwestern Bell and become the corporate headquarters of Dillard’s in the early 1960’s. The building had been

104 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide vacant for over ten (10) years and had become the victim of vandalism and unsightly deterioration. ABA capitalized on the developer’s interest as an opportunity to recycle an obsolete structure with a prominent location on Capitol Avenue and create a showcase office environment for state services. ABA has exercised its option to purchase the facility, and upon completion of all improvements, ABA will sublease the building to several state entities. The building is currently under renovation with full occupancy scheduled for the early spring, 2010. The building is scheduled to achieve a minimum LEED certification, which will include the State’s first commercial application of a photo-voltaic (solar) system. In addition to the LEED certification, there are at least eight (8) notable energy efficiency initiatives that have been integrated into the building’s re-design: High efficiency roofing with high reflective surface to reduce summer heat gain. High efficiency windows with U-factor of 40

105 Suggestions for improving your StEP Example 1 (from ABA): Continued from previous slide High efficiency exterior wall P-2000 insulation system. High efficiency water-source heat pump HVAC system. Double wheel energy recovery ventilator High efficiency lighting with lighting controls and daylight harvesting. Photovoltaic system to operate a battery powered car recharging station at the site. Rain water below grade collection and storage system to provide for landscape irrigation needs. The distribution pumps for this system will also be powered by the photovoltaic system. The contractor will provide an on-going measurement and verification process of the building energy using systems for the first 3-years of occupancy to ensure the building performs as intended. This process will be used to document compliance LEED certification program and will be useful in the re-commissioning of the building at the end of this period.

106 Suggestions for improving your StEP Goal 5: Promote StEP timeline, Strategy 5.1: Develop a timeline for implementation of the StEP that is within a realistic time frame Example 1 (brief example from Rural Services): Effective Immediately – Use recycled office supplies – Electrical items will be unplugged when not in use – Computers will go into sleep mode when not in use – Reduce 25% amount of paper by 7/1/2010 Mailing Machine – Energy Star qualified mailing machines will be obtained by Spring of 2010. Water Cooler – Energy Star qualified product will be obtained by 2010. Fax Machines – In the past year we have bought a new fax machine which isn’t energy star qualified. Energy Star Qualified fax machine will be obtained by 2011. Refrigerator – Energy Star qualified refrigerator will be obtained by 2011. Fuel Efficient Vehicle – 2012
