A brief description of how the institution ensures compliance with green building design and construction guidelines and policies:

In the area of sustainability, the CSU is tasked to re-visit EO 987 and incorporate the broader climate policy into the document. Executive Order No. 987 delegates to each president, or his/her designee, the implementation of the California State University Board of Trustees' energy conservation, sustainable building practices, and physical plant management policy. This executive order reaffirms the need to conserve energy in order to achieve the goal originally set in 2001 and reevaluated in 2005. Our new goal is to reduce consumption by 15% by the end of FY 2009/10, as compared to 2003/04. The trustee policy is consistent with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger's Executive Order S-12-04, which requests the CSU's active participation in statewide energy conservation and reduced electrical demand.

The CSU shall design and build all new buildings and major renovations beginning in the FY 2006-2007 to meet or exceed the minimum requirements of the CSU Sustainability Measurement System, which shall be equivalent to LEEDTM “Certified.” Each campus shall strive to achieve a higher standard in the CSU Sustainability Measurement System equivalent to LEEDTM “Silver” within project budget constraints.
