Broward County Government is gaining national recognition as a leader in the areas of energy efficient buildings and alternative fuel vehicles. To date, these endeavors are resulting in annual energy cost savings of more than $2.5 million (41 million kWh) and are preventing more than 62 million pounds of greenhouse gasses (equivalent of removing 6,83 cars from the road or planting 8,470 acres of trees). In addition Broward County has a continuing creative outreach program. Learn more about Broward County's energy management efforts that garnered the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star Buildings Government Partner of the Year in 1999, and their plans for the future. This will be an excellent opportunity to learn the County’s methods of Energy Conservation to apply to your facilities or see how your business can partner with the County to reach future goals.

A
Message From Our President
Dear
Gold Coast ASHRAE member:
Mr. William Coad addressed our group this past month. Mr. Coad is an ASHRAE Past President and designated Distinguished Lecturer. Bill presented his thoughts regarding the "Energy Ethic". His discussion spoke to the fact that Energy Conservation is a National Security matter and it is the Professional Engineering community's responsibility to manage these resources. He pointed out that petroleum is not in infinite supply and that we need to deliver outcomes through emerging technologies. He correlated the effect of the industrial revolution with our current situation, and dependence upon foreign oil. He urged our group to provide system designs which support energy conservation and effective use of energy.
We have a local speaker this month who holds the responsibility to assist in the delivery of energy conservation within Broward county. Mr. Tony Rosa will address our chapter in April. Please see the notification within the Newsletter for more details.
We hope to see you on the 9th.
Sincerely,
Richard

Re: Chapter/Regional - ASHRAE Technology Awards
Fellow members:
Our Chapter is asking
all Consulting Engineers from Broward or
those that do work in Broward County to participate and submit
projects of their choice for the ASHRAE Technology Awards.
The projects must be completed in the design aspect to
participate in the Chapter and Regional Level. In order to
qualify for the national Award the projects must have been
completed and been in operation for at least a year.
The projects can be
in any part of the country if designed
by an Engineer of Broward County. An Engineer outside of
Broward County can participate if the project they are
submitting is in Broward County. The work shall be submitted
before the end of October. A minimum of two projects, depending
on the amount of entries, would then be selected to participate
in the Regional Awards; these projects will be announced at the
November’s Chapter Meeting.
We would also like
to see our Consulting Engineers from our
Chapter participate in the Awards selection Committee. If you
wish to participate in this committee please contact our chapter
or myself at the above number.
If you have any questions
regarding the above, please contact
me at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
John G. Rodriguez
