Comprehensive Multifamily Green Building Guidelines issued.

For the first time in California, multifamily green building guidelines are available to building managers, developers, architects, and builders. KEMA, an independent company providing consulting, testing, inspection, and certification to businesses in the energy industry with North American

headquarters in Burlington, MA, completed the guidelines for the Alameda County Waste Management Authority (ACWMA).

While created specifically to provide Alameda County building team members with technical expertise, the ACWMA Multifamily Green Building Guidelines provide a wealth of great information to facilities professionals nationwide. The guidelines offer cost-effective solutions to minimize construction-related waste, create healthier and more durable residences, and reduce operating costs for owners. Information on the benefits of supporting area manufacturers and suppliers of resource-efficient building materials is also provided. Available online, the guidelines can be downloaded from the website (www.multifamilygreen.org).
