The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel, and Flying Squirrel, a
neighborhood bar and restaurant continue their goal to be an
environmental leader in the Chattanooga area. In 2012, the Crash
Pad became the World’s first LEED Platinum hostel, and in 2013,
they partnered with the City of Chattanooga to help solve
stormwater concerns on Johnson Street, a beaten down and
forgotten street in front of their businesses. With progressive
collaboration between the public and private sectors, the Crash
Pad and surrounding facilities are examples of how urban
developments are improving Chattanooga's stormwater and flood
management. The innovative design included the use of
engineered soils and pavers to increase infiltration of rain water.
The road was built on a three-foot-deep gravel bed intended to
hold the first inch of rain water then brick pavers were placed on
top to allow the water to percolate down into the ground, filtering
the whole time. The Crash Pad was awarded the 2012 Precast
Concrete Institute Award and was originally a Brownfield
rehabilitation site.

City of Kingsport Alternative Fuels Initiative
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Clean Air
![Page 13: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The City of Kingsport began their endeavor over six years
ago. Since the first three propane conversions in 2008,
they have added several other propane vehicles and their
own private refueling infrastructure. Today, their program
has grown to over 40 vehicles that run on propane, which
includes police cruisers, work trucks of several types, and
propane-powered mowers. In addition, they have several
hybrid vehicles, including one heavy-duty hybrid bucket
truck, as well as three all-electric Nissan Leafs, one of
which is a police car used for code enforcement. The
gasoline project alone has saved the city almost $27,000
in fuel costs. Over 36,000 gallons of gasoline use has
been eliminated and 44,000 gallons of cleaner-burning
propane has been used reducing their CO2 emissions by
over 85,000 pounds (43 tons).

Whites Creek High School Driving Across Tennessee on Soybean Fuel
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Energy and Renewable Resources
![Page 21: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Students from Whites Creek High School recently drove
across Tennessee on fuel that they made from agriculture
product, soybeans. They were able to achieve this by using
15 bushels of donated soybeans and converting them into
biodiesel in their energy laboratory at the high school. They
were able to extract 12 gallons of biodiesel from their
process which allowed them to drive across Tennessee from
Kentucky to Alabama in a Ford F250 farm truck. Along the
route, they traveled to other high schools and the students
taught other FFA members the mechanics of biodiesel
production with their mobile lab. Whites Creek High School
has a three-year program called Academy of Alternative
Energy, Sustainability and Logistics. During the three year
program, they study wind energy, solar energy, biodiesel,
ethanol, the hydrogen car, nuclear energy, greenhouse gas,
and have hands on experience on the adjacent farm to the
high school.

Jacob’s Project
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Environmental Education and Outreach
![Page 29: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
“Jacob's Project” is a multi-faceted program that started out from the tragic
death of Jacob Francisco. In 2004, Jacob died from complications from e-coli
exposure when he was six years old. Desiring to prevent other’s similar
suffering and loss, his family has embarked upon this growing education and
awareness program that has risen over $60,000 and includes: ETSU
Foundation for Jacob Francisco Lectureship Series, Quillen College of
Medicine; Stop Foodborne Illness, a national nonprofit public health
organization dedicated to safe food, advanced education and assistance for
victims of foodborne illness; ongoing educational programs that have reached
nearly 2,000 local schoolchildren to date; and collaboration with the Boone
Watershed Partnership and the Johnson City to develop an environmental
education park at Sinking Creek wetlands. As a result, the Sinking Creek
Restoration Project eliminated twenty-four septic tanks to sewer connections,
repaired four septic systems outside of city limits, fenced a tributary flowing
through a cattle pasture, and expanded wetlands by 2.1 acres by the end of
September 2013. Educational signs explain the probable causes of the
contamination to Sinking Creek and how it is being restored. The park also
provides information about the plants, animals, and the geographical and
geological features within it. The restoration of Sinking Creek and the
development of an environmental education park is a perfect legacy for how
Jacob lived: exploring, learning, caring.

Liberty Technology Magnet School Farm to Tray – Food Production Program
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Environmental Education and Outreach - Schools
![Page 37: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Liberty Technology Magnet School “Farm to Tray” Program teaches science, math and
responsibility to its students by growing fresh produce for Liberty and five other district
school cafeterias. Students learn the science behind growing a variety of produce that is
served to students, teachers, and staff. In addition to providing high quality produce to
the Liberty campus, the student-grown food is purchased by the Jackson-Madison
County School System Nutrition Department and distributed to other schools. By locally
producing the food, pollution associated with trucking and highway transportation is
avoided. It also arrives immediately after harvest to the lunch room table, so nutritional
value remains high. Last year alone, students grew 2,664 heads of Rex Bibb lettuce,
573 pounds of cucumbers, and 695 pounds of tomatoes. To promote education
awareness, display boards and signage proudly state that the food is locally grown by
Liberty Tech students.
The program is self-sustaining and currently operates three greenhouses. Each
greenhouse focuses on hydroponic and aquaculture production. The greenhouses act
as an educational class room and business venture tool for the high school students. To
ensure quality and safety, the students learn and follow USDA protocol for Good
Agricultural Practices. The program provides produce to seven selected JMCSS
elementary schools. Liberty students take freshly grown produce to the elementary
schools and teach a class on nutrition to the younger students. Teachers at the
elementary schools reported that more fresh fruits and vegetables were being consumed
as a result of the teen’s visit and cafeterias experienced a 25% increase in the number
of salads and vegetables selected for lunch by children pre-K through 1st grade and
lower food waste.

Blountville, TN Former Industrial Site Rehabilitation Project
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Land Use
![Page 46: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
The Davis Pipe Site in Sullivan County utilized a 60-acre parcel of land for
fabrication of welded stainless steel and alloy pipe and fittings from 1977 to
2004. The site sat vacant for eight years. In 2012, the site was approved for a
Brownfield redevelopment by way of Birch Street Properties, LLC. The first
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act brownfield agreement in the State of
Tennessee with the cooperation and collaboration of the TDEC Division of Solid
Waste Management, TDEC Division of Remediation, Region IV EPA, Sullivan
County officials and J.A. Street & Associates – the result of a true public/private
partnership. The site contains seven permanent industrial buildings and several
secondary structures, including an office trailer, guard shack, diked containment
area, three wooden sheds, and an engineered liner system that covers a
closed-in-place hazardous waste management unit. Surveys indicated that
there was not significant contamination and that it was suitable for restricted
redevelopment. This project has developed numerous public and private
relationships. Birch Street Properties has developed relationships with the
county government, the local community, and the business community. A
special relationship has developed between Birch Street Properties and a local
church outreach program that is occupying one of the buildings. The church
outreach group assists with general site maintenance in lieu of paying rent for
an open space. This private/public partnership has allowed these businesses to
operate on site and employ 60-plus persons which in turn contribute to the
economic base of the small town of Blountville.

2013 include: catalyst waste reduction, hazardous waste stream
elimination, module paint elimination, and recovery and reuse of excess
liquid solutions. Efforts in 2013 identified and redirected tons of catalyst
material that was destined for landfills. This catalyst waste is now
reprocessed into their manufacturing process. Catalyst waste refers to
product that has experienced any level of processing beyond the raw
material, but does not meet first quality assurance standards. Recovery
and rework of this material will result in roughly $100,000 annual
savings in raw materials. The total number of hazardous waste streams
was reduced from seven to two.

High Ground Park
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Natural Heritage
![Page 64: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
High Ground Park (Knox County) - High Ground Park transformed once neglected and
overgrown remnants from the Civil War into a park of beauty and substance, preserving
its integrity as a historic resource and providing the public with an open space and a rich
cultural asset. The newly constructed 39-acre passive use park captures Fort Higley, a
former Civil War Fort. Parking with a trailhead and trail system include interpretive
exhibits that guides visitors to the fort comprised of earthworks constructed by the Union
Army days before Knoxville's most well-known Civil War battle, the Battle of Fort
Sanders.
The firm Carol R. Johnson Associates was hired by the Aslan Foundation to develop and
plan and program for the site. The outcome of these planning efforts is High Ground
Park which opened in 2013. The park not only preserves and enhances the native
landscape through low impact design, but also protects high-integrity remnants of Civil
War defensive emplacements such as rifle trenches, a cannon redoubt and strategic
military lines of sight. The parking lot is comprised of pervious asphalt; site lighting at the
parking area consists of energy efficient LED fixtures with renewable wood bases; a
seeded stone aggregate sidewalk guides visitors to a stone trailhead and welcoming
area where stacked stone site walls and columns serve as a more formal entrance into
the site; and a traditional double rail wood fence runs along the primary pathway. Most
invasive species were eradicated which had overtaken the forest. This clearing along
with new, native plantings, resulted in higher quality woodland. Where there was once a
tangled mat of invasive vegetation hiding one of Knoxville's most culturally significant
landmarks, now sits a high quality park providing the public with opportunities for
learning and an appreciation of nature and history.

Bridgestone Americas made the commitment to capture one spent
tire for every new tire the company sold. This commitment
spanned all product categories from 15” fitments on cars like the
Prius to the massive agriculture and mining tires that are
measured in feet and not inches. Bridgestone Americas
collaborates with the River Network, a conglomerate of
approximately 2,000 state, regional and grassroots organizations
who protect our nation’s waterways. The assistance Bridgestone
provides in picking up the tires that are pulled from natural areas
and proper recycling is at no cost to any clean up group. The
Tires4Ward program partners with over a hundred non-profit
organizations, citizen groups, and communities nationwide. To
date, they have supported over 200 clean-ups and sent nearly
70,000 tires recovered from clean-up activities to various valuable
use markets like rubberized asphalt, mulch, and athletic surfaces.

Chattanooga Airport Pursuit of Excellence
The Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for
Pursuit of Excellence
![Page 83: Recognizes voluntary efforts. - Tennessee€¦ · •Recognizes voluntary efforts. •Honors individuals, organizations, local ... for Building Green . The Crash Pad, a boutique hostel,](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062602/5f01c8407e708231d4010206/html5/thumbnails/83.jpg)
Over the past 40 years, Chattanooga has transformed itself from one of the
most polluted cities in the nation to one of the cleanest. More than six years
ago, The Chattanooga Metropolitan Airport Authority pledged to reduce its
environmental footprint and started small by initiating sustainable practices
both on the airfield and within the commercial terminal. The CMAA received
the 2013 Governor’s Environmental Stewardship Award for Sustainable
Performance. Since then, they made significant strides including lighting
improvements and pavement rejuvenation, the installation of a 2.1
megawatt solar farm which generates the equivalent of 85 percent of the
airport’s energy consumption, the first aviation facility in the world to
achieve LEED Platinum certification, along with two LEED Gold certified
hangars, installation of gate electrification equipment, a national water
quality demonstration project, and a terminal renovation. In February 2014,
the airport received the prestigious “Jay Hollingsworth Speas Airport
Award”. In addition to these major projects, the airport has developed a
recycling program to reduce waste and the airport provides recycling bins
throughout the terminal and in office areas. Materials recycled at the airport
include paper, cardboard, aluminum, plastic, light bulbs and debris from
maintenance, construction and demolition projects. The CMAA is dedicated
to preserving the environment by reducing the airport’s carbon footprint and
these projects prove that commitment.
