Green NCC

The EMVL is located in the National Computer Center, which is a Green Building. In January 2005, EPA received Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED®) Exit EPA Disclaimer Silver certification from the U.S. Green Building Council rating for the NCC. The LEED rating system is a voluntary, consensus-based national standard for developing high-performance, sustainable buildings. Also, during NCC's construction, 90 percent of construction debris was recycled. GSA recognized the project's exceptional success with a Planet GSA Demolition Derby 2000 Award, and as a "model sustainable facility" in its 2001 annual national environmental awards.
