Green Building Guidelines for Water and Wastewater Projects, Site Construction, Concrete, Concrete Masonry Units, and Special Construction.
BECC’s “sustainable development” certification criterion recognizes the value that implementing sustainable practices, whether in water, wastewater, solid waste or expanded mandates projects will bring to the communities it serves. Therefore, BECC has prepared this document to serve as a set of guidelines for “green” building practices to enhance the sustainability of both infrastructure projects and
their surroundings.
This document is intended to address environmental infrastructure projects in the US and Mexico. Similar guidelines are widely utilized in the United States for the construction of sustainable and environmentally sound buildings and structures.
