Total floor area of building space:
8,605,793
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.
| 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 | 119,627 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:

Green Cleaning

A copy or the green cleaning policy:
A brief description of how green cleaning is incorporated into cleaning contracts:
Colorado State University has adopted and implemented a comprehensive Environmentally and Socially Responsible Procurement policy that encourages the purchase of green cleaning products across all sectors to minimize environmental impact. CSU Facilities Management, CSU Housing & Dining Services and the Student Recreation Center have all adopted green cleaning policies and practices which would cover 100% of CSU’s occupied square footage (that is not otherwise certified by a green building rating system).
Energy Management and Benchmarking
100
A brief description of the energy management or benchmarking program:
CSU has an Energy Team that monitors building performance and prioritizes projects. Twice per year, all buildings are ranked by EUI. Efficiency measures and retrocommissioning efforts are then prioritized based on this data. Efficiency projects are funded through a revolving fund.
In addition, CSU utilizes EnergyCAP (a utility database) to track utility use in buildings. CSU's three major campuses are all master metered from the local utility, but CSU maintains submeters at nearly all buildings to better understand building energy and water usage. These meters have recently been upgraded to "real time" meters in order to provide even more information to improve efficiency.
Water Management and Benchmarking

Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Certifiable GSf has been reduced by the following:
Unoccupied or uncertifiable (barns, parking garges, etc): 1,716,888 GSF
LEED last 5 yrs = 2,036,757 GSF
Total Certifiable Space = 12,359,438 – 1,716,888 – 2,036,757 = 8,605,793 GSF
In regards to IAQ monitoring the CSU Construction Standards include the following language: "At a minimum, the BAS shall include provisions for energy management (economizer function), building static control, building temperature control, and IAQ control."
In regards to IAQ response: In addition to any alarms generated by IAQ monitoring equipment in the BAS system, Environmental Health has a webpage where IAQ complaints can be reported. Those complaints are assigned to members of the EHS team who address nonemergency complaints within 3 days.
