The green building guidelines or policies:
UAlbany established high performance building guidelines that informed the construction of the projects listed above. A copy of this guideline is available at:https://www.albany.edu/gogreen/files/documents/Buildings%20and%20Operations/UA-MinEESustainabilityGoals.pdf
These are currently undergoing a revision to make the standards more rigorous
Do the green building guidelines or policies cover the following?:
Yes or No | |
Impacts on the surrounding site (e.g. guidelines to reuse previously developed land, protect environmentally sensitive areas, and otherwise minimize site impacts) | No |
Energy consumption (e.g. policies requiring a minimum level of energy efficiency for buildings and their systems) | Yes |
Building-level energy metering | Yes |
Use of environmentally preferable materials (e.g. guidelines to minimize the life cycle impacts associated with building materials) | Yes |
Indoor environmental quality (i.e. guidelines to protect the health and comfort of building occupants) | Yes |
Water consumption (e.g. requiring minimum standards of efficiency for indoor and outdoor water use) | Yes |
Building-level water metering | No |
A brief description of the green building guidelines or policies and/or a list or sample of buildings covered:
All new construction and major renovation projects on Campus must meet the UAlbany High Performance Design Guidelines found at http://www.albany.edu/facilities/energy/documents/UA-MinEESustainabilityGoals.pdf.
Indoor Air Quality has a separate plan which can be located at: https://www.albany.edu/gogreen/files/documents/IAQ%20Plan.pdf
None
A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with green building design and construction guidelines and policies:
The UA High Performance Guidelines are shared with design team early in the process. Each phase of design is reviewed by University personnel to ensure compliance with guidelines. Submittals, change orders and substitution requests are reviewed by University personnel during construction to ensure changes do not adversely impact compliance.
