Green Infrastructure Guidelines Certification Program This course program outlines best management practices in green planning and design for urban infrastructure for companies and staff involved in municipal infrastructure planning, design, construction and maintenance. The course covers: Site assessment, soil testing, hydrologic analysis, vegetation assessment, and invasive species evaluation. Pavement practices, lifecycles, pervious vs. impervious pavement, reflectivity, materials, programs and applications. Mechanisms that affect right-of-way construction by private utilities, technology to minimize pavement damage and degradation, and utility installation and maintenance. Integrated stormwater management planning, water pollution prevention, construction runoff prevention, surface pre-treatments for filtering runoff, catch basin inserts and water quality inlets, detention and infiltration structures, and constructed wetlands. Construction practices such as site protection, plan development, protecting water sources and planted areas, developing waste management and recycling plans, and minimizing construction and recycling impacts. Modules: Green Infrastructure 1: Introduction to High Performance Guidelines Green Infrastructure 2: Best Practices for Site Assessment Green Infrastructure 3: Best Practices for Streetscape Green Infrastructure 5: Best Practices for Utilities Green Infrastructure 6: Best Practices for Stormwater Management Green Infrastructure 7: Best Practices for Landscape Green Infrastructure 8: Best Practices for Construction Practices Green Building Commercial Certification Program High performance buildings maximize operational energy savings; improve comfort, health, and safety of occupants and visitors; and limit detrimental effects on the environment. This program shows new practices for high performance commercial and municipal buildings and how to implement them in municipal capital project administration and facility management frameworks. These Guidelines promote careful study of all stages in project development to ensure the fiscal integrity of the commercial project and responsible budget planning. They help the design team identify high performance cost premiums and savings for building owners. This course is valuable to Architects, Project Managers and Engineer who are or will be involved in developing building applications for LEED certification. Topics covered: Green Building Principles and Practices Capital budgeting design and construction practices that promote economically and environmentally justifiable investments Comprehensive pilot for high performance building efforts Incremental use of individual high performance strategies on projects of limited scope Design and construction partnerships for environmental and economic performance goals Reducing energy, materials expenditures, waste disposal and utility bills Improve the comfort, health, and well being of building occupants and public visitors. Design buildings with improved performance that can be operated and maintained within the limits of existing resources.
