A brief description of the sustainable operations and maintenance policy/program and/or O+M rating system(s) used:
While not operated and maintained through LEED, all above square footage is operated with in accordance with three CMU policies. There is a Green Cleaning Policy which details the chemicals and procedures which must be followed when cleaning takes place in a building. The Sustainable Purchasing Guidelines contains the processes which must be followed in order to purchase the most sustainable option when considering office, janitorial, or any other products. Finally, the Solid Waste Management Policy details how to dispose of hazardous and nonhazardous materials in a building. Together, these three policies enable CMU to operate, manage, and maintain all indoor building spaces responsibly and sustainably.
