Project Stories
Award winning sustainability
To meet the LEED goals, during construction the project team implemented an Erosion and Sedimentation Control (ESC) Plan to prevent the loss of soil by stormwater runoff and/or wind erosion. A temporary sediment filter was installed at the inlet to the storm sewer culverts to prevent sedimentation of storm sewers and receiving streams. All efforts by our team demonstrated a 15 percent improvement below ASHRAE Standard 90.1-2007 in the proposed building performance rating.
