CHARLOTTE, N.C., Aug. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The MCIEAST Regional Brig at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune has earned Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Gold certification with the Green Building Certification Institute. The 75-bed pre-trial confinement facility continues the Navy's ongoing commitment to environmental sustainability through high-performance design and is distinguished as the military's first LEED Gold brig.

Due to their nature, correctional facilities often consume vast amounts of energy and water. Consequently the design-build team, a joint venture featuring Enviro AgScience, M.B. Kahn Construction Company, and Moseley Architects, collaborated with the Navy to determine the most appropriate strategies to reduce consumption, including integrating high performance HVAC systems and envelope materials into a design that also met the Navy's security and impact resistance requirements (such FEMA 361). As a result, MCIEAST is modeled to achieve 39 percent energy savings, which readily exceeds the requirements of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 of 30 percent.
Emphasizing the importance of energy independence and reducing lifecycle operating costs, Peter McWilliams, who serves as part of Camp Lejeune's Installation Development Division, commented on the importance of LEED principles to the U.S. Marine Corps. "Energy reduction was extremely important to the base for this particular building due to its 24/7 operation. With this building's unique mission, having a design firm and construction team that had the knowledge to incorporate LEED principles to help achieve the energy goals was invaluable."
The project also featured an emphasis on waste recycling during construction and was able to divert 97 percent of all construction and debris from landfills. This reduction greatly exceeded Camp Lejeune's current recycling goals and supports the attainment of Executive Orders 13514 and 13423.
John Nichols, a sustainability coordinator with Moseley Architects, reflected on the project. "From a LEED perspective, this was a smooth sailing project. The Enviro AgScience JV project team paid close attention to the Navy's very detailed LEED requirements from the initial RFP all the way through the end of construction, which enabled us to constantly monitor our compliance. Even under a NAVFAC Best Value award, the team succeeded in both supporting Camp Lejeune's Environmental Policy and significantly reducing the Navy's total cost of ownership for this new facility."
MCIEAST marks the 52nd LEED certified project for Moseley Architects, who has been partnering with clients to meet sustainability and energy efficiency goals for both new and renovated facilities since 2000.

Dallas, TX (PRWEB) July 31, 2013
Legends Roofing takes pride in their reputation as a reliable, trustworthy roofing company. The summer is the busy season for roofing and they want to make sure customers are in the know when choosing a roofing contractor.
Texas does not require roofing companies to be licensed, which means anyone can put a roof on a home. Roofing contractors can drive from all over the country to do work. While this may mean they give a lower price to complete the job, it also means they most likely will not honor a warranty they give.
Homeowners can choose a good roofing contractor by getting references of past customer's homes where work was performed and calling them. Choose a roofing contractor who is local. Also, customers can check out their company on the BBB website and Angie's List. Additionally, see if they have any certifications from material manufacturing companies. Most of those companies offer courses to roofers, which enables roofing companies to become certified shingle installers through them. Furthermore, ask companies to show you proof of insurance.
The importance of a roof is to protect everything inside a home or office. If it is not installed properly, numerous problems can arise: leaking, shingles can fall off, buckling and curling of shingles can occur, and exposed nails.
Call Legends Roofing today for more information (972) 210-2351.

Choosing a Roofing Contractor During the Summer Roofing Season
A long stretch of daily rainy weather put some crimps in the plans for contractors working on the six Indiana Area School District buildings this summer.
With that wave of challenges behind, the supervisors and workers have tweaked their schedules and all now expect to meet their deadlines as planned.
When the school bells ring and students start classes for the new school year on Aug. 27 (the Tuesday before Labor Day), the only work still under way will be in Ben Franklin and Eisenhower elementary schools.
And school officials say the students and teachers in the classrooms should barely notice. Just as when work began and continued through the 2012-13 school year, renovations will be done after school hours or in areas away from the classrooms.
But in the four other buildings Horace Mann and East Pike elementary schools and the junior- and senior-high schools all the work should be finished and the students should see finished products.
That is, as long as the nice weather prevails, said Greg Trout, the supervisor of buildings and grounds for the district.
This school-by-school status check for the district is unprecedented. Since early 2012, the Indiana Area School District has taken on a project like no other in its history.
Because of state school funding guidelines, large-scale projects in the past were limited to one building at a time.
But under a new state law that allows schools to work outside those traditional rules choosing the contractors that can do the most efficient rather than the least expensive work Indiana designed a districtwide plan to make improvements that will pay for themselves by reducing energy consumption and utility bills.
With a district-appointed project manager called an ESCo Energy Services Company to oversee the improvements, a series of subcontractors have installed new lighting systems, water-saving plumbing fixtures and weatherproofing measures in all the schools.
