**The following information is based on  BNL CFN:**
**MR Credit 2.1 and 2.2**
- Construction Waste Management, Divert 50% &75% from Disposal
- Total of all Waste	              2,864 Tons
- Total of all recyclables	2,319 Tons
- Percentage (%-Recycled) 	_**81% = 2 Credits**_
**MR Credit 4.1 and 4.2**
- Recycled Content
- Combined value of recycled content materials = _**$1,100,000 = 2 Credits**_
**MR Credit 5.1 and 5.2**
- Regional Materials-Total cost of regionally extracted material= _**$2,342,759**__** **__** = 30% = 2 Credits**_
**IEQ  Credit 4.1-4.3**
- Low-Emitting Materials
- = **3 Credits**

## How to Reach LEED Gold ?

**How to Reach LEED**** ****Gold**** ?**

_**Requires a System Based Approach**_
**No single item will provide the additional points needed**
**Additional investment in multiple credit types must be pursued**
**Requires a tangible investment since credit for all “low hanging fruit” has been taken**

## Strategy to Reach LEED Gold 

| LEED Credits NSLS II | Current Design |  |  | Solar Power and Water Re-Use Strategy |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  | Y | M | N | Y | M | N |
| Sustainable Sites | 5 | 7 | 2 | 8 | 4 | 2 |
| Water Efficiency | 3 | 2 | 0 | 5 | 0 | 0 |
| Energy & Atmosphere | 3 | 1 | 13 | 9 | 2 | 6 |
| Materials & Resources | 7 | 0 | 6 | 7 | 0 | 6 |

## Maximizing Energy Efficiency

- Energy Efficient Lighting and Lighting Controls
- Solar Shading
- PV Cells
- Heat Recovery
- M&V System
- Green Power Credits

**Strategy to Reach LEED ****Gold**** **

## Solar power system comprised of 900 solar modules for a total of Approx. 270kW = 7.5% Overall Energy Use Reduction
Each module has an individual power rating of 300W 
This system also provides local and web-based monitoring of weather and solar electric system energy production.  
Photovoltaic System has a 25 year design life.

## Life Cycle Cost Saving Strategy to Reach GOLD Level LEED

- Bio-Retention Ponds
- Bio-swales
- Vegetated Filter Strips
- at Parking Areas
- Partial Green Roof
- Pervious Paving
- Rain Water Collection

**Comprehensive Stormwater Management and Water Collection System**

## Life Cycle Cost Saving Strategy to Reach GOLD Level LEED

- Annual Rainwater Collection for NSLS-II **(210,000 sf Roof Area)** = _7,300,000 __**gal/yr**_
**Graywater usage benefits:**
- Potable Water Usage Reduction
- For Occupant= 1,400,000 gal/yr** = ****3 Credits**
- For Process Cooling** = **11,400,000 gal/yr** **= **1 Innovation Credit**
- Stormwater Runoff Reduction = **2 Credits**
- Irrigation** = ****2 Credits**

## Initial Indications of the Cost of Gold

- Initial Indications of the Cost of Gold

- Photovoltaic
- 900 panel system capable of 7.5% reduction ~$2.5 M
- 300 panel system capable of 2.5% reduction ~$1 M
- Heat Recovery & Shading Systems – TBD but >$1M
- Rainwater Collection System ~$300–600 k depending on size
- Enhanced Storm Water Management  - TBD (likely >$500k)
- _Caution_: the hidden costs
- Additional maintenance costs to keep systems working efficiently
- Potential operational drawbacks in personnel efficiency or system reliability
- Can’t let it negatively affect mission capability

## CF ESH Requirements

- Engineering Design
- Engineer safety into facility design
- Review and input of ESH SME’s
- NEPA  - assure compliance with EA and FONSI
- Construction Safety
- Implement “Best in Class” program (Construction Safety Plan)
- Contractor selection weighted by safety performance
- Dedicated construction safety personnel (Contractor, CM, Project)
- Use Incentive Program
- Transition to operations
- Beneficial occupancy reviews/Hazard Analyses/Exp. Safety review

## ESH Management

- CF has the following responsibilities for ESH during the project:
- Design to code and include engineered safety features to mitigate hazards identified in PHA
- Coordinate review and input to design by ESH SME’s and incorporate
- Comply with environmental regulations and stay within operating envelope of the NEPA review (EA) and FONSI
- Incorporate sustainable design features and maximize sustainability within budget and operational limits (LEED Certification & possible gold rating)
- Select contractors that have above average safety performance
- Implement an effective construction safety program with “Best in Class” goal
- Document and test all systems to verify safe and efficient performance
- Initiate and support BORE process for transition to BNL custody/operation

**Notes:**
And 

## NSLS II Facility Utilization Issues

- On track for completion at end of FY08
- B209 already demolished, B 86, 100, 210 & 211, in design
- Other on-site bldgs will be modified in FY08, design underway
- Need to expand CCWF jointly (with BNL)
- Shared project with BNL GPP/IGPP (Draft MOA)
- 2500 tons for NSLS II, 1250 tons for lab with spare bay for future 1250 ton chiller
- Schedule requires completion spring FY11 to support installation
- ~24 months available – should be more than adequate
