As a member-driven organization, USGBC committees are the primary
means by which the organization develops consensus-based programs to
serve the green building industry. Board committees conduct the business

committees develop and deliver the LEED Rating System, vet the technical
aspects of LEED, and assure that all LEED credits are technically supportable.
