A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with sustainable building operation and maintenance guidelines and policies:

The University of California, Santa Barbara is one of three universities in the U.S. participating in the pilot phase of the LEED Portfolio Program. The campus plans to certify 25 existing buildings by the end of 2012. In 2002, Chancellor Yang instituted a campus practice, stating that all new buildings commissioned after July 1, 2004, must meet a minimum of LEED Silver. Recently, the Chancellor's Sustainability Committee at UCSB established a new interim policy that all buildings commissioned after July 1, 2010, must meet a minimum of LEED Gold.
