  1. Progress Report on ASHRAE/USGBC/IESNA Std 189: High-Performance Green Buildings John Hogan, A.I.A., P.E. Senior Code Development Analyst Seattle Department of Planning and Development P.O. Box 34019 Seattle, Washington 98124-4019 Creating a Green Building Roadmap for Houston City of Houston and Clinton Climate Initiative Houston TX, 10 May 2007

  2. OVERVIEW Scope & intent: sponsors, topic areas, process, challenges, compliance Coordination with national initiatives: U.S. Federal agencies, AIA, Natl Conf of Mayor Outline of Standard 189: chapter outline, mandatory vs. prescriptive vs. performance Overview of criteria Next steps

  3. STANDARD 189:Sponsors & Scope Lead sponsor and cosponsors:- ASHRAE, USGBC, and IESNA Five topic areas:- sustainable sites, - water use efficiency, - energy efficiency, - impact on atmosphere, materials & resources, - indoor environmental quality (IEQ)

  4. STANDARD 189:Intent What Standard 189 is:- a standard: “Standard for the Design of High-Performance, Green Buildings Except Low-Rise Residential Buildings”(title uses the word “green” to convey intent, there is no claim to sustainability) What Standard 189 is not:- not a design guide- not a rating system

  5. STANDARD 189:Process and Challenges Process: consensus process Challenges:- to identify standards to reference (not programs)(LEED references a number of programs)- some standards only provide rating procedures, others provide procedures and pass/fail criteria(need to decide on how high to set the bar where criteria are not specified)- identify regulations where standards do not exist

  6. STANDARD 189:Compliance Compliance goals:- a document that can be implemented and enforced by a wide variety of users, from those on the leading edge to those with little knowledge Mandatory provisions:(majority of standard)- essential criteria, can not be traded off Prescriptive/Performance options:- Prescriptive: simple option, conveys the intent - Performance: allows innovation

  7. STANDARD 189:Coordination w/ National Initiatives U.S. Federal agencies MOU (E.O. 13423):reduce energy cost by 30% based on 90.1-2004 use a minimum of 20% less water low-pollutant materials, 10% recycled AIA (American Institute of Architects): 50% reduction of fossil fuels National Conference of Mayors, 2030 initiative:buildings to be carbon neutral by 203060% in 2010, 70% 2015, 80% 2020, 90% 2025

  8. STANDARD 189 SCHEDULE:Meetings to Date SPC 189 preliminary meeting:26 June 2006, ASHRAE Annual Meeting SPC 189 meetings for drafting of standard:29-30 August 2006 16-17 October 2006 11-12 December 200629-30 January 2007, ASHRAE Winter Mtg 1-2 March 2007 12-13 April 2007 (vote for public review)
