BARRIER-FREE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS. OAC, RC and OCOR's
must be designed to be barrier-free and accessible in compliance with the Architectural
Barriers Act (Public Law 90-480) of 1968, http://www.access-board.gov/ufas/ufas-
Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS), published as Federal Standard (FED-
STD)-795, http://www.access-board.gov/ufas/ufas-html/ufas.htm, and 28 CFR Part 36,
the Americans With Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines for Buildings and Facilities
(ADAAG), http://www.access-board.gov/adaag/html/adaag.htm. Use the criteria that
provide the greatest accessibility.

SUSTAINABLE DESIGN. Use an integrated approach to the planning
and design of OACs, RCs, and OCORs that minimizes energy consumption and
optimizes life cycle cost renewable energy possibilities. Use a practical combination of
site selection and siting, energy conserving building envelope technologies, energy
efficient lighting, occupant sensing controls, variable frequency drives for motors and
exhaust fans, and high efficiency HVAC systems to achieve this goal. Incorporate
renewable energy principles such as day-lighting, passive and active solar heating,
natural ventilation, and photo-voltaics where they are life cycle cost effective.
The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED Green
2-12.1
Building Rating System should be used to measure the sustainability of the completed
project. It can also be used during planning and design as a source of green building
strategies. LEED addresses sustainable sites, water efficiency, energy and
atmosphere, materials and resources, and indoor environmental quality. It can be
downloaded from USGBC at http://www.usgbc.org/programs/index.htm.
