USGBC-NCC Advocacy

Check out our Green Building Codes Resource Center!

USGBC-NCC's Advocacy Team has been keeping busy in 2010 with the adoption of California's first Green Building Standards Code and other advocacy priorities. One of our highest priorities is to provide local jurisdictions, builders and others with the information they need to understand the new code and how it relates to existing ordinances and rating systems. We are also working on state legislative issues and AB32 defense efforts.

USGBC-NCC is forming a panel of experts to move these issues forward at a local and state level. Learn more about the panel and how to get involved.
We are interested in your input on how policy and regulation might affect your practice. Please fill out this short questionnaire to help us better understand where codes or legislation might be changed to encourage greener practices.

Contact USGBC-NCC Senior Program Manager Ashleigh Talberth. for more information about the Chapter's advocacy efforts.
