International Green Construction Code includes proposed language regarding storage of reclaimed and gray water. Public comment deadline August 12.

June 29, 2011

 

The public comment period for the International Green Construction Code (IgCC) is now open, through August 12.  All public comments submitted must address the committee actions from the May Code Development Hearing in Dallas, Texas.  The full Report of the Public Hearing for the IGCC is now available for download on the ICC website at http://www.iccsafe.org/cs/IGCC/Documents/2011ProposedChanges/2011-ROH.pdf. It provides the result for each code change item heard, along with the committee’s reason statement.

 

Public comments must be submitted using the appropriate form, which can be downloaded from http://www.iccsafe.org/cs/codes/Pages/publicforms.aspx  Each public comment must address a specific code change item from the Report on Hearings, and may suggest necessary changes to the text of the original code change to  address the specific issues you raise in your comment.  As with the original code proposal, changes must be formatted with new text underlined and deleted text stricken out.

 

Each public comment will be given a number and each will be heard at the Final Action Hearings during the period of October 31st – November 6th, 2011, at the Phoenix Convention Center in Phoenix, AZ. The exact dates and the hearing schedule are to be determined, based on the number of comments received.

 

This is the final opportunity to influence the content of the IgCC until the 2015 version is developed.
