A brief description of the sustainable operations and maintenance policy/program and/or O+M rating system(s) used:
All buildings at Weber State University have natural gas, electric, and water sub-meters. These meters are tied into the Building OS and Atrius Dashboard which report consumption and demand in real time and issue email alerts when expected consumption ranges have been exceeded.

In addition to receiving alerts, consumption and demand for each building are checked weekly by the energy manager and water conservation specialist and are compared to WSU's baseline data. If problems are found, the energy manager and water conservation specialist addresses those issues immediately through controls or put in a work order to have the issue addressed by the other shops in facilities if the problem cannot be addressed through controls.

WSU has a comprehensive energy plan for its buildings and works to improve the performance of its buildings through audits, commissioning, efficiency upgrades, full building renovations, and building new buildings that are carbon neutral capable. This plan can be found at: https://www.weber.edu/sustainability/esip-plan.html
