1:30 pm-2:45 pm Getting the Biggest Bang for Your “Green”: A Fresh Approach to FF&E Consumption While not long ago a venture of practicality and goodwill, surplus programs are rapidly becoming a painful and costly operation to maintain. Post-consumer waste reduction/diver- sion efforts are claiming innovative mindshare, and more than ever a fundamental element of environmentally responsible practice, mounting pressure for this entity to demonstrate positive impact in the realm. Today, whether attributed to saturation or inundation, many programs are in crisis as they struggle with the bleeding of downstream, increasingly unwanted FF&E. “It costs us money to give it away, and that’s if anyone will take it” - have you heard (or said) that before? So what’s the fresh approach? It is to consider the end of life as a result, not an inevitability, of our traditional actions. It’s about forethought instead of aſterthought. Join us for a look at both sides; the “green” (costs), and how you can purposefully realize the “bang” (benefits). Tis engaging, interactive session will uncover obscurities that thwart reduction efforts, and present realistic techniques that can redefine stewardship for your entire organization.

9:00 am-10:15 am Down With Bridging Documents! (and Up With Greater Project Efficiencies and Greener Design Elements!) Design/Build is fast becoming the preferred project approach among Community College Districts for its ability to drive leaner budgets and schedules. But how does Design/Build drive greener projects and campuses? By eliminating the bridging document phase of the Design/Build process, the San Jose Evergreen Community College District found optimal green design solutions for the San Jose City College Multidisciplinary Arts Complex project, including a minimized footprint; photovoltaic solar panels; “urban lumber recovery” of site trees, reused and incorporated into the building as a design
element; super-efficient building systems; natural daylight- ing; tall, and generous north-facing windows; an exterior rain screen; renewable and recycled materials, reuse of concrete from demolished buildings as base rock, etc.. Te non-bridging approach brings the owner, the contractor, the designer and the engineers to the table at the very beginning of the design pro- cess. Its use on the San Jose City College project has proven to save time and money; however, more importantly, it promoted great synergy of ideas, ensured community buy-in, and collab- oratively produced a building targeting LEED® Silver that beats Title 24 energy code requirements by 25 percent.

10:45 am-12:00 pm Innovations in Energy Conservation How to Make Your Campus More Energy Efficient Trough On-Demand Hot Water Circulation Tis session provides an introduction to traditional hot water circulation in typical school buildings and how an innovative new system differs from traditional continuous pump illustrated by case studies, data reports, energy saving and green ratings. Included will be update reports on current testing at Pepperdine & LMU, information on how schools and college campuses can join in Enovative’s outreach program and receive free testing of an installed system and details of how to take advantage of Southern California Gas Company rebates. Testing done at schools and colleges now will be used to create a state-wide rebate program through Southern California Gas in the future.

How About Low Tech, for a Change? Energy Conservation with Green Roofs Green roofs offer a relatively low tech but well-proven ap- proach to energy conservation, significantly impacting temperatures in local environments (urban heat island effect) and within building structures. A typical extensive green roof system (four inches of soil depth plus plant cover) can reduce air-conditioning costs by 25 to 50 percent in a single story structure. By cooling roof top temperatures on multiple story structures, green roofs can as well increase the efficiencies of the air conditioning systems, allowing for smaller units and thereby reducing energy costs. Tis session will provide a brief overview energy conservation studies on green roofs and will highlight some green roof installations on college campuses within our state, including one case study.
