A brief description of the sustainable building operations and maintenance program and/or a list or sample of buildings covered:

All buildings maintained by central campus funds are administered with stewardship of materials and resources in mind. Equipment is identified for Preventative Maintenance planning to promote long life of equipment and building comfort, building automation systems (where installed) provide the ability to manage energy usage. Cleaning processes are reviewed for safety to staff and the environment and to prolong the life of the materials cleaned.


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

Enforcement for the individual standards is part Facility Operations, part EH&S, part PD&C, part Energy Management. Along with the responsible parties in each respective Auxiliary. This is something I plan on working on in the coming months in an attempt to meet the standards of LEED for Existing Buildings Operations and Maintenance.

The campus has a full-time manager for sustainable design and construction who works with Campus Facilities Departments to build consensus and affect change in Campus Facilities Operations as related to sustainability. This manager also develops project-by-project sustainability targets and solutions with design teams while assisting in development of specifications and progress trackers for all new construction and major renovation projects.
