A brief description of the time period from which the figures reported above are drawn (i.e. one-year time period or representative sample):
Student leadership voted to require EPEAT Gold for all new computer and monitor purchases starting July 2010. The dollar amount is per signing the contract in 2013, and it is one-year time period.
The language reads:
"All equipment purchased with Universal Technology Fee dollars must be certified with the Gold EPEAT standard.
This requirement may be waived by a 2/3 majority vote
Exceptions include:
1. Technologies not covered by EPEAT.*
2. Required functionality not present in the EPEAT approved alternative.**
3. Major price differences that would cause the program involved substantial operational difficulties.**
*Preferential treatment should be given still be given to other environmental standards if the technology is not covered under EPEAT (energy star, European standards, etc).
**UTF requests which apply for an exemption under articles 2 or 3 must factor in environmental consequences in their request, i.e. additional energy costs, consequences of heavy metal pollution, etc.
