Currently Facilities Services and the Office of Sustainability together are seeking a new ACM Consortium High Performance Building Construction and Renovation certification program. At present, this is not recognized by an official Established Green Building Council (GBC), but this is certainly an effort at taking steps to improve sustainability performance of our buildings and to utilize expertise of other schools and individuals in collaborating to improve building sustainability.

A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with sustainable building operation and maintenance guidelines and policies:
The institution continually assesses and reflects on the sustainable aspects of new and existing buildings. Facilities services has taken steps to comply with a sustainability ethic, such as, investing considerably to add individual energy meters to all buildings and energy intensive areas previously served by multi-building utility master meters, or by the central plant distribution systems for cooling and heating. Facilities and the Office of Sustainability are working to create more tangible and definite guidelines through the ACM Consortium High Performance Building Construction and Renovation certification. In the foreseeable future this certification will provide stricter policies to which the Campus Sustainability Council, the Office of Sustainability, Facilities, and the administration will be responsible to comply.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
CC has invested considerably to add individual energy meters to all buildings and energy intensive areas previously served by multi-building utility master meters or by the central plant distribution systems for cooling and heating. CC also monitors and trends the energy usage in order to identify any excessive usage in order to make corrections or adjustments in operating and maintenance systems and is pursuing the ACM Consortium High Performance Building Construction and Renovation certification thus we are “taking steps to improve sustainability performance of their buildings” as quoted from the technical manual.
