Response to GF Comments on Draft Report

GF – Milestone 10 (Design Guidelines): Response to Comments

Section GF Comments CH2M HILL Response

General

There should be a section to describe the purpose of this document.

This document is a section of the overall CH2M HILL submittal (as per CH2M HILL Scope of Work). A small introductory paragraph is added.

Analysis of Building Rating Systems

It should also be noted that LEED is the only system currently at use in the SC industry.

Text added

Perhaps it should be noted here what the frequency is for certifications under each system specific to the SC industry.

LEED is the only building certification systems used for FAB application. GF FAB AD 01 will be the first facility following Estidama Building Rating System.

This comment is not needed Phrase deleted

Please modify - delete However Word deleted Project Boundary for certification

a To clarify, while the CUB building technically wasn't included in certification for Fab8, the systems in the CUB were included. They must be, because these systems are required as part of the energy model.

Text modified as follows: ‘ Separate project boundaries were established for the Administration and FAB Building, with the utility systems (CUB building) included in the energy model calculations for the FAB’

To clarify, we would certainly expect CUB to be covered under Estidama. We don't want UPC to think otherwise.

Noted : Text changed accordingly

ISDM

Is this fair? Is the average building in AD not already above and beyond "business as usual"?

For the purpose of this document, only Estidama will be looked at, hence Abu Dhabi BAU building performance is more applicable.

How is this baseline meant to relate to that required under LEED and/or Estidama?

The Baseline for the FAB application will need to be developed and agreed with UPC when pursuing Estidama certification.

Model is suitable for high level comparison of scenarios

Text amended

Section 7 Technical Design Guidelines

Why was this particular set of indicators chosen?

This was agreed with GF and is part of CH2M HILL – Milestone 10 Deliverables requirements. These specific guidelines cover key sustainability aspects particularly when pursuing LEED certification as initially targeted.

The final version of the document examines applicability with Estidama requirements consistent with client’s direction as of 17th of October 2010. Hence, the ‘Erosion and Sedimentation


Control’ section is not considered applicable to Estidama rating system and is only kept in the Appendix section.

This was in ERM Permitting scope, although we have not approved development of that deliverable.

Typically, for EHS permitting purposes waste management focuses on waste handling and disposal, whereas sustainability guidelines would focus in achieving the required percentage of waste diversion from landfill to obtain the relevant Estidama credits.

Text added to reflect permitting/compliance requirements under the sections:

7.1.1

‘Demonstrate Compliance with local regulation with respect to Construction and Demolition Waste Management’ 7.4.1.

‘Ensure full compliance with the Local Regulatory Framework as reflected within GF’s Construction Environmental Management Plan’

Section 7.1 - Construction and Demolition Waste Management

As noted, 30% is minimum required under Estidama so design target should aim higher. At least to the 50% that earns "Improved" level (and LEED credit). 75% should probably be used, it allows all credit points to be earned and recent projects (GF and others) have demonstrated that 90% and greater is feasible.

Text modified to reflect this: A 70% diversion from landfill is targeted as a minimum, in line with Estidama Credit requirements.

Section 7.2 - Construction Indoor Air Quality Management

Need to ensure the project benefits from Fab8 experience with SAIC/NYSERDA energy modeling

Sharing Lessons Learnt with the Abu Dhabi Team would be beneficial.

Section 7.4 - Erosion and Sedimentation

Do we have any indication of comparability of AD construction requirements vs. the EPA regs cited here?

This section was initially prepared in line with LEED credit rating requirements. Following client’s direction as of 17th of October 2010 to include in our deliverable only Estidama


Control (ESC) Management Plan

requirements, the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Management section is not considered relevant to the Estidama rating system. Comparing to LEED, under Estidama, there is no individual credit on Erosion and Sedimentation Control Management. Relevant control measures fulfilling Estidama requirements (Credit: IDP – 3) are expected to be addressed under the Construction Environmental Management Plan in line with EAD ‘CEMP - Technical Guidelines Document’ (April 2010). It is understood that the GF CEMP will be prepared by ERM. No further comparison is required at this stage. The ESC section is kept in the Appendix section for reference only.
