A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with green building design and construction guidelines and policies:
On January 16, 2006, Bill Richardson, Governor of the State of New Mexico, signed Executive Order #2006-001 requiring all Executive Branch state agencies, including the Higher Education Department, adopt the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED Rating System.
In addition to complying with the Executive Order, New Mexico State University will design and construct all new building and renovation project to meet the USGBC guidelines for a minimum of LEED “Silver” certification.
New projects that are unable to achieve a minimum LEED Silver certification and do not involve enough changes to the buildings will still be designed and constructed using the U.S. Green Building Council’s guidelines for LEED criteria as a framework for making decisions related to sustainable design. Every new construction project will be commissioned by a third party commissioning agent to ensure that the building is built as designed and operates according to the design parameters.
