A brief description of the green building rating system(s) used and/or a list or sample of certified buildings and ratings:
LVC has one building in operation (Mund) that is LEED certified and has recently completed construction on a second building that is presently in the process of receiving LEED Silver certification. All building energy use data is submitted for review and benchmark comparison to peer institutions via Sightlines www.sightlines.com. We also benchmark our energy use per square foot to the latest Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) data. These are the same benchmarks incorporated into the ENERGY STAR rating system through the DOE. LVC has consistently operated its buildings more efficiently than our peer institutions and below the CBECS average for higher ed institutions.

A brief description of the energy management or benchmarking program:
LVC benchmarks energy use with peer institutions via Sightlines Inc. Each year energy use metrics and maintenance operations are compared to similar institutions. LVC is consistently a top performer in the cohort. Additionally, LVC uses CBECS data to benchmark Energy Use Intensity (EUI) on a regional basis.
Of the institution's uncertified building space, what percentage of floor area is maintained in accordance with a water management or benchmarking program? (0-100):
A brief description of the water management or benchmarking program:
Water data is collected for all campus buildings and irrigation wells. Trend reports are maintained via our Sightlines Inc reports. We have a water conservation policy in place and utilize waterless urinals throughout campus as well as low flow toilets and shower heads.
