Bill > A2922

This bill requires the State Capitol Joint Management Commission to adopt and implement an environmental sustainability plan for the State House Capitol Complex. The plan must include initiatives to improve energy savings and efficiency, water conservation techniques, applicable green building principles, involvement of food services, methods to reduce carbon emissions, and performance measures to track progress. The commission is also required to consider the sustainability plan when entering into contracts and must appoint an advisory committee of environmental sustainability experts to assist in the plan's preparation and implementation. The goal is to incorporate sustainable design, development, and practices to protect environmental resources, support the economy, and create a healthy working environment.
