University of Colorado Boulder
OP-3: Indoor Air Quality

Institution has adopted an indoor air quality management policy, plan, and/or practices that include regular auditing or monitoring and a mechanism for occupants to register complaints.  Policies and plans adopted by entities of which the institution is part (e.g. state government or the university system) may count for this credit as long as the policies apply to and are followed by the institution. 

This credit applies to all institutions. 

Institutions earn the full 2 points available for this credit when all buildings are covered by an indoor air quality management policy, plans, and/or practices (or if there is an institution-wide plan or policy).   Partial points are available based on the percentage of occupied building space that meets the criteria.  For example, if an institution had half of all its occupied building space covered by an IAQ policy, it would earn 1 point (half of the points available for this credit).
