The IAPMO Green Technical Committee
convened its first meeting April 9 in Chicago to develop green plumbing,
mechanical and solar codes.
Chaired by Bill Erickson of CJ Erickson Plumbing
Co., the committee has members who are contractors, engineers, union officials,
association staff members, consultants and government employees. Along with
creating separate green codes, the group will recommend changes to the Uniform
Plumbing Code and Uniform Mechanical Code that incorporate sustainable
construction.
