ENERGY CONSERVATION
The
A district
energy conservation program shall be implemented which includes the assessment,
monitoring and reduction of energy use in all facilities and divisions. An
employee education awareness program for on-the-job application of conservation
measures shall be an integral part of the program. The board recognizes that
community support is a vital component of effective energy conservation.
The board
further recognizes the urgency of the program to promote exemplary fiscal
management and the need to seek grants and loans for the implementation of the
program. Energy conservation will be a major factor in considering the design
of new facilities and the modification of existing facilities, use of
facilities, transportation, new equipment purchases, maintenance, and gifts to
the district.
In order to
modify existing facilities to become more energy efficient, the Board of
Education establishes a goal of budgeting the actual annual savings from the
energy conservation program to the energy reserve fund. This fund shall be
restricted to energy conservation projects.
The
superintendent shall be responsible for the development and implementation of
the energy conservation program.
