Column: Recovery plan would advance GSA sustainability goals
The U.S. General Services Administration has welcomed President-elect Barack Obama's economic recovery plan because it includes an effort to make public buildings sustainable and more energy-efficient, writes Jim Williams, acting GSA administrator. "Within GSA, an investment in upgrading federal buildings means new funds to address the backlog of repair and alteration projects, especially in our 480 buildings that are eligible for the National Register of Historic Places," he writes. Williams also notes that many of the buildings were built during President Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration.
