National Green Building Program from NAHB
The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) has announced the creation of the National Green Building Program, which will be launched in February 2008. The first iteration of the program will be based on the Green Home Building Guidelines written by NAHB (see
EBN
Vol. 14, No. 2); the National Green Building Standard being developed by NAHB with the International Code Council (see
EBN
Vol. 16, No. 3) will be incorporated into the program when it is available. The national building program will allow builders to submit their projects for certification and have them verified by a third party. In addition, local building certification programs whose criteria meet or exceed those of the NAHB program will be able to use the national program to certify projects. More information is
available at www.nahb.org/greenbuildingprogram.
