A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with sustainable building operation and maintenance guidelines and policies:
Though we haven’t yet certified any buildings LEED EBO+M, we are totally conscious of how we maintain our buildings according to LEED principles. We have a Green Cleaning Program that is so comprehensive that we used it for an Innovation Credit for our last STARS report in 2011. NMSU’s Facilities and Services shops (HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Painting, etc.) are very aware of sustainable principles and when doing repairs, upkeep, or remodels, follow green philosophies.
Our contracts with consultants such as dining services and our bookstore have clauses for sustainable practices.
As a university our Office of Sustainability makes sure that products used in interior remodels meet LEED requirements because we strive to provide our students a healthy learning environment.
Our Environmental Health and Safety Office, also within the Facilities and Services department, also partners with the Office of Sustainability by meeting regularly to assess the campus environment.
