WHEREAS, Wisconsin is dedicated to the environmental health and safety of its employees, and to efficient and effective work environments in state-owned facilities; and
WHEREAS, the State of Wisconsin enjoys a unique and timely opportunity to design, construct, and renovate buildings for the twenty-first century that will serve the needs of our citizens and employees for years to come and that will incorporate a building's life cycle and reduced operating costs; and
WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the people of Wisconsin that all state buildings constructed, expanded, or renovated shall be modern facilities of the twenty-first century, combining energy-efficient design, environmentally sustainable systems, and maximum access and benefit to employees and the public;
NOW, THEREFORE, I, JIM DOYLE, Governor of the State of Wisconsin, by the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of this State do hereby:
1. Direct the Department of Administration, in consultation with state agencies and the UW System, to set energy efficiency goals for state facilities, office buildings or complexes, and campuses for FY07, FY08, and FY09 by July 30th 2006. The goals should reduce overall actual energy usage per square foot by at least 10% by FY08 from the FY05 state energy report baseline adjusted for weather and 20% by 2010. I further direct the Department of Administration and state agencies to use all existing statutory authority in implementing measures to achieve these energy goals; and
S768
2. Direct the Department of Administration, in consultation with state agencies and the UW System, to establish programs for energy analysis of state-owned buildings and identify reduced energy use under section 16.858 of the Wisconsin Statutes. In addition, any state agency responsible for state-owned facilities will examine the feasibility for a performance contract for energy and operational cost savings under section 16.858 of the Wisconsin Statutes. The Department of Administration will provide centralized reporting and coordination of comprehensive capital energy improvements; and
3. Direct the Department of Administration to work with the Building Commission and the Energy Center of Wisconsin to ensure that new state facilities are constructed to be 30% more energy efficient than commercial code; and
4. Direct the Department of Administration, in consultation with state agencies and UW System, to ensure better oversight and management of energy purchasing through measures such as utility billing audits, consolidation of accounts and utility bills, and proactive elimination of unnecessary utility accounts; and
5. Direct the Department of Administration to establish sustainable building operation guidelines (for owned and leased properties), which shall be adopted by the Division of State Facilities within six (6) months following the date of this order, based on the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEEDtm) Green building Rating System for New Construction and existing Buildings and other comparable sustainable guidelines and rating systems. The State guidelines will recognize the use of wood-based materials and products from the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), American Tree Farm System (ATFS), and Sustainable Forest Initiative (SFI) certification programs. For certification, LEEDtm and other comparable sustainable guidelines and rating systems may be pursued and the Department of Administration will support projects that request certification as part of the initial project request. In addition, the State will give credit for the use of wood based products and materials from FSC, ATFS and SFI certification programs when LEEDtm certification is pursued. These guidelines will apply to the operations and construction of all new buildings, additions and retrofit projects, including planning, siting, budgeting, design, construction and deconstruction. In addition, these guidelines will address sustainable operation and maintenance, including green cleaning, green purchasing waste reduction and recycling, pollution prevention, energy and water efficiency, and light pollution in existing buildings. The guidelines should include identifying performance data that will be measured to assess the effectiveness of the efforts and for benchmarking purposes. Progress and Outcomes will be reported annually to the Governor's office as well as the State of Wisconsin Building Commission; and
6. Direct that the Department of Administration, at a minimum, shall ensure that on each project the following approaches are implemented: an integrated design process including high performance green goal-setting charrettes; energy modeling used as a design tool and then truthed at the phase of construction documents on buildings more than 20,000SF or Advanced Building Guidelines for those up to 80,000SF; commissioning and retrocommissioning; review at completion of Schematic Design, Design Development documents and Construction Documents that the design intent of the green goals are incorporated into the documents and are being met; minimum indoor air quality approaches to construction; and, minimal ventilation requirements for indoor environmental quality that meet the current version of ASHRAE, now ASHRAE 62.1- 2004 Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality. Further, the Department of Administration shall provide performance information on a project-by-project basis as part of a statewide building performance database; and
7. Direct the Department of Administration to pursue demonstration projects at state facilities, including the Capitol and Executive Residence, regarding use of photovoltaic (PV) and other renewable technologies to generate electricity and use alternative fuels for heating and cooling; and
8. Direct that each state agency and the UW System assign a lead person to work with the Department of Administration in the development of the sustainability and energy efficiency goals, the budget and management review, the purchasing of renewable energy, and the implementation of the sustainable building guidelines.
IN TESTIMONY WHERE OF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Wisconsin to be affixed. Done at the Capitol in the city of Madison this eleventh day of April in the year two thousand six.
