8c Attachment SPARC Environmental Notes, C1 Building Expansion

Item No. 8c_attach 
Meeting Date: May 26, 2020 
C1 PDD  SPARC Appendix (Sustainable Design Approach) 
Energy Use 
The designer will analyze energy use (electricity, liquid fuel, natural gas) and capital cost for the C1
expansion and provide options for reducing energy use by 5%, 10%, and 20% below Washington State
Energy Code. Examples include but are not limited to dynamic glass, static glass with low solar heat gain
coefficient, shading devices, regenerative elevators, etc. On-site renewable energy generation may be
considered by the designer to offset energy use to meet this goal. The Port's Century Agenda goal is to
meet all increased energy demand through conservation and/or renewables. Energy use reduction must
meet the Port's existing design standards. 
Materials 
The Port is committed to reducing the embodied carbon of building materials. During design, prior to
contractor bid document completion, the design team will provide the Port Environmental staff with
technical specifications for various materials (concrete, steel, and gypsum) proposed for use on the
project. Materials will be selected that meet the structural and safety standards required for this
project, with the lowest appropriate embodied carbon per unit. The design team is responsible for
collaborating with Port Environmental staff to ensure that selected materials are compliant with LEED
requirements and Port Standards. 
Water Use Reduction 
The designer will analyze water use and associated cost for the C1 expansion and provide options for
reducing water use by 10% and 20% below Uniform Plumbing Code 2015 and Washington State
Amendments. Areas of reduction could include but are not limited to indoor water use, outdoor water
use, process water demand, rainwater capture, etc. Water use reduction must meet the Port's existing
design standards. 
LEED 
The most current version of LEED Building Design and Construction (BD+C) Silver Certification (Port
anticipates it will be version 4.1) will be required for the C1 Expansion. 
The LEED integrative process credit requires exploratory discovery analysis during the pre-design and
design phases to identify synergistic attainment opportunities across disciplines and systems. The intent
is to support early high-performance analysis with the project. Discovery items required by this credit
include "simple box" energy analysis, preliminary water budget analysis, and associated implementation
strategies with both items. 
The C1 project is required to achieve the following LEED points in the following categories: 
1 point under the Integrative Process 
2 points under the Building Product Disclosure and Optimization- Environmental Product
Declarations credit 
At least 2 credits under the Construction Waste Management credit. 
The following LEED scorecard may be used to guide which credits to explore for this project:

Waste Management 
The designer will provide options to minimize the visibility of waste transportation and deliveries to and
from tenant spaces and public areas. The designer will provide costs and benefits associated with those
options. 
All dining-related ADR tenant spaces will be designed to accommodate dishwashers to reduce need for
disposable service ware. 
Innovation 
The Port encourages innovation and is interested to see sustainable building design concepts for the C1
Expansion. Innovation techniques must have past precedent from the last three years and available
performance data for review. 
Consistent with the Port's Architectural Standards relating to biophilic design, the design team will
develop at least three project-specific biophilic design options with associated costs to provide occupant
benefits including stress reduction and relaxing passenger spaces.

Meeting Date: May 26, 2020 
Transportation and Employee Support 
The Port requires that the design team develop project-specific design options to support employees
that commute via active transportation, public transportation, or other non-drive alone modes. Cost for
all options must be included.

Limitations of Translatable Documents

PDF files are created with text and images are placed at an exact position on a page of a fixed size.
Web pages are fluid in nature, and the exact positioning of PDF text creates presentation problems.
PDFs that are full page graphics, or scanned pages are generally unable to be made accessible, In these cases, viewing whatever plain text could be extracted is the only alternative.
