Page 17 of the Existing Buildings Reference guide indicates that an application to USGBC must be filed within 90 days following the Performance Period for the building. This particular building did not meet the criteria of the Energy Star Rating system and required energy conservation measures to be implemented. The Alternative method of scoring utilizing reduction of energy which will be extrapolated over 12 months must also be utilized. Our performance period is 3 months and energy savings have been realized. However, this Building receives electricity from New York Power Authority as part of a multi building contract and actual utility bills for the performance period are not available until approximately 75 to 90 days after the utility monthly billing period. We need the monthly utility bills for this period to provide the analysis for EA PRE 2 and EA CRE1, and to submit to USGBC as supporting documentation. The question is, Can the USGBC application be submitted for consideration later than 90 days after the completion of the performance period? After we receive all utility bills it will require 15 days to complete the analysis, template, and compile supporting documentation.
