New Raytheon Warfighter Protection Center Certified as First 'Green' Facility in Alabama with New LEED Silver certification
(Huntsville, Ala., November 15, 2007) -- The new Raytheon Warfighter Protection Center in Huntsville, Ala., has been awarded the prestigious LEED Silver certification by the non-profit U.S. Green Building Council, making it the first official "green" facility in the state under the newer, more stringent standards.
LEED stands for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design. In order to obtain the Silver certification, the Raytheon facility in Huntsville had to earn enough points using the council's stringent criteria, which included reducing operating costs, providing a healthier and more productive environment for occupants, and conserving natural resources.
In a ceremony at the Warfighter Protection Center, the LEED Silver certification plaque was unveiled in front of Raytheon employees and guests. The plaque will be permanently displayed in the new building's reception area.
"From the very beginning we planned on incorporating the many energy saving features into our new facility because we felt it was the right thing to do," said Tony Palumbo, the center's executive. "To receive this LEED Silver certification honoring our many environmental elements makes it very special for our employees and for all of Raytheon."
