  5. 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  6. Overview of FIMS Fields Tracking Sustainability Understanding how FIMS records compliance with the Guiding Principles and LEED Certification 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  7. EMCBC site Outgrant Indicator = No Estimated Disposition Year > 2015 Property Type = Building 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  8. Restrictions Status ≠ Shutdown 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  9. GSF ≥ 5,000 Indication of exclusion from EPAct 2005 reporting Reminder: Elect/Gas means . . . 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  10. Typical of most entries in this field: (hard to analyze) Only when GSF ≤ 5,000 OR Est. Disp Year ≤ 2015 AND status = shutdown Assessment Status makes active one section of the form 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  11. If LEED certification attained, select level Select EB or NCLEED may mislead Assume the building was assessed . . . Enter “GP Points - % Achieved” 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  12. Equivalence in O 430.2B Section 4(d) : “All new buildings will incorporate the Guiding Principles of E.O. 13423 to the extent practical and life cycle cost effective. “As of October 1, 2008, all new buildings and major buildings renovations at Critical Decision One (CD-1) or lower with a value exceeding $5 million, must implement the Guiding Principles of the Executive Order and attain U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED Gold certification. . . . “ 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  13. Waivers for LEED in O 430.2B Section 4(d) : “In no case will a waiver permit any construction or renovation project that does not meet or exceed statutory goals, including the achievement of credits to exceed the ASHRAE 90.1-2004 standard by at least 30 percent, and address each of the five elements of the Guiding Principles. “ 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  14. Equivalence in O 430.2B (EP) Section 4(b) requires an “Executable Plan” to achieve O 430.2B goals for each site FEMP annually distributes Executable Plan preparation guidance The August 2009 version further defined equivalency Guiding Principles 100% Equivalency through LEED Certification : At CD-2 or higher on or before 10/1/08: Any level of LEED certification; At CD-1 or lower on or before 10/1/08: LEED-NC Gold or Platinum certification; or, LEED-Existing Buildings Operation & Maintenance Silver certification or higher. 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  15. History of the “Guiding Principles” • Full Title: Guiding Principles for Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Buildings • Most signed in late Jan. 2006 • Under three pages • Tasks an Interagency Sustainability Working Group to “provide technical guidance and updates for the Guiding Principles. “ 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  16. Executive Orders and the GPs EO 13423 EO 13514 • January 24, 2007 • Section 2(f)(i): “ensure that new construction and major renovation of agency buildings comply with the Guiding Principles. . . . “ • (ii): “15 percent of the existing Federal capital asset building inventory of the agency as of the end of fiscal year 2015 incorporates the sustainable practices in the Guiding Principles” • October 5, 2009 • Section 2(g)(ii): “ensuring that all new construction, major renovation, or repair and alteration of Federal buildings complies with the Guiding Principles . . . .” • (iii): “ensuring that at least 15 percent of the agency’s existing buildings (above 5,000 gross square feet) . . . meet the Guiding Principles by fiscal year 2015 . . . .” 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  17. Overview of the Guiding Principles for New Construction and Major Renovations Understanding how the Office of Management and Budget seeks implementation of the five Guiding Principles for Federal Leadership in High Performance and Sustainable Buildings 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  18. Guiding Principles for NC / MR Employ Integrated Design Principles  Project Team OMB A-11 Section 7 Exhibit 300 Sustainability Performance Goals Complete Lifecycle Considered Commissioning 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  26. Meeting the Guiding Principles NC / MR through Sustainability Standards ASHRAE 189.1-2009 (a Standard) LEED NC 3.0 (a Certification) 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  27. About ASHRAE 189.1-2009 • Full name: Standard for the Design of High-Performance Green Buildings • Developed with support from USGBC and IES • Published in January 2010 • Optional compliance path for the ICC’s draft International Green Construction Code • 30% more energy efficient than ASHRAE 90.1-2007 according to NREL study • Information on Standard 189.1: www.ashrae.org/greenstandard • Information on International Green Construction Code: www.iccsafe.org/cs/IGCC 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  28. About LEED NC 3.0 • LEED = Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design • Developed by USGBC but administered by GBCI • Published in April 2009 • Reweighted credits to better align with environmental and human impacts of credits • Introduced regional credits that emphasize local needs • Retains four levels of certification • Information on LEED 3.0: http://www.usgbc.org/DisplayPage.aspx?CMSPageID=1970 • LEED NC 3.0 Reference Guide: http://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=5546 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  29. Standard vs. Certification ASHRAE 189.1 LEED NC 3.0 • Throughout the project • Mandatoryprovisions AND prescriptive OR performance path • Low • Low • At granting of certification • Pre-requisites AND a choice of credits that must total to desired level • Moderate • High Compliance validated . . . Flexibility . . . Potential for missing expectations Potential for recognition 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  30. Watch for Alignment • Sustainability standards and certification do not perfectly align with the Guiding Principles NC / MR • What will you find – • 1:1 match • Similar end result • Possible to arrive at the same end result . . . but not guaranteed (PNG) • Not addressed (NA) • LEED Certification equivalence is policy • Good contract documents address compliance paths • Addendum “Crosswalk” for ASHRAE 189,1 and LEED NC 3.0 illustrates this 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  31. ASHRAE 189.1 Alignment Issues Possible, Not Guaranteed Not Addressed • Energy efficiency • 30% hot water from solar • Harvest and reclaim water • Reduce outdoor potable water by 50% • Pre-development hydrology • Daylight factor of 2% . . . • Environmentally Preferable Products • OMB Exhibit 300 • WaterSense irrigation contractors 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  32. LEED NC 3.0 Alignment Issues Possible, Not Guaranteed Not Addressed • Project team • Complete lifecycle considered • Energy efficiency • EnergyStar Products • 30% hot water from solar • Harvest and reclaim water • Pre-development hydrology • Moisture control • Environmentally Preferable Products • OMB Exhibit 300 • Water meters for outdoor usage • WaterSense irrigation contractors 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  33. Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Design Standards for New Federal Buildings Notice of Proposed Rule Making Published on May 28, 2010 (75 FR 29933) Comments due on July 27, 2010 http://bit.ly/b5ReCI 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  34. Purpose of the Rule • Define 11 terms, including: • Major renovation • Potable water • To the extent practicable • Revise definitions of 3 terms, including • New federal building • Require solar hot water heaters • Revise the “Guiding Principles” NC / MR • Recommend a green building rating system 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  35. New Definitions Proposed • Major renovation • Changes that yield “substantial improvement in energy efficiency” – OR – • Cost more than 25% of Replacement Plant Value • Potable water • “Public drinking water” • “Natural freshwater” • To the extent practicable • “Wherever feasible taking into consideration . . . safety . . .. project objectives . . . material availability . . . increases in life cycle cost and total funding available” • Commentary: Not when compliance costs exceed 3% of first costs 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  36. Definition Revision Proposed • New federal building • “Any new building . . . constructed by, or for the use of, any Federal agency.” • Would include built new-to-lease • Would include complete in-place replacements, from foundation to roof 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  37. Solar Hot Water Heaters • Would take effect one year after final rule publish date • At least 30% of hot water needs for new or renovated portion of the building • When life-cycle cost-effective 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  38. Proposed Revisions to GPs NC / MR • Would revise “Reduce Environmental Impacts of Materials” • Restore the 10% concept for recycled content from the original (MOU) GPs • Post consumer recycled content + half of pre-consumer recycled content ≥10% of first cost or replacement value of ALL building materials • Remains a preference • Would introduce “Building Siting” to consider: • Building orientation • Central locations • Local transit • Pedestrian access • Affordable housing • Reuse of buildings • Avoiding sensitive lands • Parking management 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  39. Green Building Rating Systems • Would effect designs initiated one year after final rule publish date • The system must: • Allow for independent verification of criteria • Welcome public comment • Use a consensus-based revision process • Have national recognition • Periodically evaluate its sustainability benefits • Periodically confirm continued savings of certified buildings 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop

  40. Green Building Rating Systems • Certification level • Complies with regulations stemming from EPAct 2005 and EISA 2007 • Complies with EO 13423 • Self-certification • FEMP has to approve • Agencies would certify internal reviewers • Judge buildings against the Guiding Principles NC / MR • At least 5% of certified buildings annually done through a system compliant with the six criteria on the previous slide 2010 FIMS / RE Workshop
