The Amer. Recovery and Reinvest. Act of 2009 (ARRA) provided the Gen. Serv. Admin. (GSA) with $5.55 billion to invest in fed. buildings and promote economic recovery. This funding includes $4.5 billion to convert buildings to high-performance green buildings (HPGB), which seek to reduce energy and water use. This report addresses the: (1) steps GSA has taken to implement the program and make its ARRA projects transparent to the public; (2) extent to which GSA¿s ARRA projects are helping the agency convert buildings to HPGB and addressing fed. energy and water conservation requirements and goals; and (3) extent to which GSA has identified potential risks to its ARRA program and developed strategies to mitigate those risks.

The fed. gov¿t. is the nation's single largest energy consumer, spending approximately $17 billion in FY 2007. A number of statutes and executive orders have established and revised goals directing agencies to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions -- such as carbon dioxide, which results from combustion of fossil fuels and natural processes, among other things -- and increase renewable energy use. This report determines the extent to which: (1) fed. agencies met energy efficiency, greenhouse gas emission, and renewable energy goals in FY 2007; (2) fed. agencies have made progress in each of these areas in the recent past; and (3) six selected agencies are poised to meet energy goals into the future.

This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. The fed. gov¿t. is the nation's largest energy consumer. The Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA) establishes high-performance fed. building requirements that include reducing energy use and managing storm water runoff. The DoE, GSA, OMB, and EPA are implementing and, in turn, helping other agencies to implement EISA requirements. This report addresses: (1) what implementing agencies are doing to direct and assist other agencies in meeting key EISA high-performance federal building requirements; (2) how implementing agencies are planning to use Recovery Act funds to meet key requirements; and (3) what challenges implementing and other agencies might face.
