i This manual is being developed as part of a ten-point plan to implement the Governor's sustainable building goal as outlined in Executive Order D-16-00 and the report Building Better Buildings: A Blueprint for Sustainable State Facilities (Blueprint). Task 7 of the Blueprint calls for developing sustainable building technical assistance and outreach tools, including a training program for state departments, as well as local government and private sector partners. This manual was developed by DGS, the Sustainable building task force, and CIWMB as one component of the sustainable building training program for state departments. This document will be undergoing constant revision as other deliverables outlined in the Blueprint are completed and technological and process breakthroughs advance the rapidly emerging field of sustainable design.
