ESOH Renewable Energy Enterprise Wide USAFJeffrey Riegle
Sustainable communities are those that use resources that are available for future generations. Our children are learning this fact in grade school. But how does a community go from “I think we have renewable resources?” to “Let’s build a Renewable Energy Plant (REP)!”. This presentation will talk about how the United States Air Force (USAF) is answering that very important question, with the help of the national labs and its consulting partners. The USAF recently began a journey with a consulting firm to determine if one or more of six technologies were feasible (environmentally, financially, and operationally) at twenty-two of its bases, from Alaska to Florida, and everywhere in between.
After the Phase 1, desktop study, Phase 2 Feasibility Studies for Renewable Energy are the real test of whether a technology should be considered for a particular location. The presentation will give real world examples of the kinds of decisions made, the information that needs to be collected, as well as some excellent lessons learned to help future evaluators of REPs. From Solar, Wind, and Biomass, to Waste to Energy, a wide variety of technologies were evaluated, and stacked up against the almighty dollar to determine if the Government should/could/would develop REPs on its underutilized lands.
This presentation is a must-see for anyone who is considering developing a Renewable Energy Plant in their community, doubly so for any Federal Installation considering Solar, Wind, Biomass, or Waste to Energy Technologies.
Sustainable Methods used to reduce the Energy Consumption by Various Faciliti...IJLT EMAS
The purpose of this article is to identify the energy
challenges faced by airports especially with regards to the energy
consumed by the terminal building and suggest suitable energy
conservation techniques based on what has already been
implemented in few airports around the world.
We have identified the various facilities and systems which are
responsible for a major share of the consumption of energy by
airport terminals and we have suggested measures to effectively
overcome these problems.
Copenhagen is one of the smart city. In sustainability concept it can be an example. This presentation upholds a basic structure of Copenhagen and their strategic movement towards sustainable following SDGs.

New Union South Sustainability 6.1.2009shaynahetzel
It's an exciting time to be a part of the Wisconsin Union, as an organization. We just celebrated our 100th anniversary last year and as we begin our next century of service, we look to the future for our buildings and programs.
Sustainability is a buzz word in today’s society. There are lots of definitions of what it is and what it means. Here’s a definition from the EPA: sustainability is: meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
These are our initiatives to green building and sustainable practices.
During this session we will look at how our highways and their construction impacts our everyday lives. By developing an understanding of how we currently manage our highway infrastructure, with the understanding that cars and highways are not going away anytime in the next 50 or so years; how do we make for a more sustainable future? We will discuss the 5 core concepts of sustainability; water, land, energy, resources and air. Specifically how they can be addressed in highway design and construction

This is the final presentation of my senior design capstone project, delivered to a public audience and a board of reviewing engineers. Slides 1-6, and 55-58 were designed by me, with the remaining slides designed by the other members of our team of six. The movie on the final slide was also my responsibility, as was the Google SketchUp rendering used to create it. As project manager of the team, I had the final approval of each of the slides that went into the presentation.
The Green Alley Program is a new approach to CDOT’s
existing alley program. Alleys provide a great benefi t
for the City, but like all infrastructure, they also require
maintenance and periodic reconstruction. Flooding is often
an issue in alleys because many alleys in the City were
built without a connection to the City’s combined sewer and
stormwater system.
While one solution to this problem is to install expensive
connections to the City sewer system, the Green Alley
Program also looks at other more sustainable solutions.
In particular, where soil conditions are appropriate, water
is allowed to infi ltrate into the soils through permeable
pavement or infi ltration basins, instead of being directed
into the sewer system or onto adjacent property. This not
only solves a persistent problem, but it also provides an
environmental benefi t by cleaning and recharging the
ground water. Furthermore, by not sending additional
water to the combined sewer system a green alley can help
alleviate basement and other fl ooding issues.
You, the adjacent property owner, can make a difference
by instituting other best management practices (BMPs) on
your property. These can range from recycling to installing
your own rain garden, which can help alleviate fl ooding even
further.
This handbook will explain why the city is interested in
sustainable alley design, illustrate the BMP techniques
the City will use in green alley design, and provide sample
layouts of how these elements have been combined in pilot
applications. In addition, information and resources are
provided for property owners interested in implementing
their own environmental BMPs.
On 22nd July 2009, I welcomed the opportunity to share my perspective as an experienced town planner and project manager to the Ford Strategic Design Group in London and offer insight into the California development process. The presentation’s purpose was to provide an overview of town planning and highlight key elements of environmental analysis for new development master plans and regeneration projects relevant to transport, namely, the automobile. It included a featured a sustainable transportation case study on the Orange County Great Park and Great Park Neighborhoods, a 4,700-acre regeneration project in Irvine, California (40 miles south of Los Angeles, California). Ending with recommendations for Ford to collaborate with emerging developments, I offered California-based opportunities that promote a reduction in vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and support zero-carbon emission climate change strategies, while facilitating community mobility.
