FACILITIES EXEMPT FROM WATER USE REDUCTION REQUIREMENTS - 1835.6

Buildings or facilities that meet or exceed 2010 or newer CalGreen water efficiency standards may be exempted from water use reduction requirements, since they already meet low water use targets. Supporting documents or data must be provided if requested and may include monthly/annual utility water use reports and/or water use calculation tables that document the water use ratings.

Agencies must still report the water use of these facilities in the Energy Star Portfolio Manager database on an annual basis, as outlined in section 1835.4.
