"---" indicates that no data was submitted for this field

Total floor area of building space:

10,008,811 Square feet

O+M Certified Space

Building space must be certified under a rating system focusing on the operations and maintenance of existing buildings (e.g. LEED O+M) to count as certified space for this credit. Sustainability in new construction and major renovation projects (e.g. LEED BD+C certification) is covered in the Building Design and Construction credit.

Floor area of building space that is certified at each level under a green building rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings used by an Established Green Building Council:

	Certified Floor Area
LEED O+M Platinum or the highest achievable level under another GBC rating system	0 Square feet
LEED O+M Gold or the 2nd highest level under another 4- or 5-tier GBC rating system	0 Square feet
Certified at mid-level under a 3- or 5-tier GBC rating system (e.g. BREEAM-In Use, CASBEE for Existing Buildings, DGNB, Green Star Performance)	0 Square feet
LEED O+M Silver or at a step above minimum level under another 4 -or 5–tier GBC rating system	0 Square feet
LEED O+M Certified or certified at minimum level under another GBC rating system	0 Square feet

Floor area of building space that is certified under a non-GBC rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings, e.g. BOMA BESt, Green Globes CIEB:

0 Square feet

Percentage of building space certified under a green building rating system for the operations and maintenance of existing buildings:

Energy Management and Benchmarking

Of the institution's uncertified building space, what percentage of floor area is maintained in accordance with an energy management or benchmarking program? (0-100):

100

A brief description of the energy management or benchmarking program:

All buildings are managed by a Building Automation System (BAS). These BAS systems are tied into an analytic platform (Skyspark) which is used to identify faults and preventative maintenance.

Water Management and Benchmarking

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):

100

A brief description of the water management or benchmarking program:

Water use, both reclaimed and potable, is monitored primarily through the use of EnergyCap and the new UCF Open Energy Information System (OEIS). Buildings and irrigation systems are metered throughout the main campus (including auxiliary units that are separately billed). That data is input and analyzed at least monthly on the EnergyCap and OEIS platforms. A response team is deployed to investigate any discrepancies and take corrective action in the case of leaks or faulty equipment. Moreover, the general public can visit oeis.ucf.edu, where interval consumption data per building can be seen and compared to previous months/years.

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

Indoor Air Quality The university has adopted the latest American National Standards Institute (ANSI) / American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) Standards for cooling, heating, humidity control, ventilation rates and thermal comfort. These nationally recognized standards establish the minimum ventilation rates and other measures intended to provide indoor air quality acceptable to human occupants, and minimize adverse health effects. As these standards are a product sold by ASHRAE, they are not posted publicly but are available for purchase here: https://www.ashrae.org/resources--publications/bookstore/standards-62-1--62-2 ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 62.1-2013 Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality Furthermore, the general public may submit an Indoor Air Quality Concern Form online at http://www.ehs.ucf.edu/workplacesafety/iaqform.html. These concerns are addressed on a case by case basis, as no building or situation is the same.
