The International Code Council (ICC) and the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) have agreed to create a green building educational manual for code officials, scheduled for release in December 2007. The organizations are also exploring other business opportunities and collaborations through a memorandum of understanding. According to Allan Bilka, senior staff architect with ICC, the collaboration will serve code officials, contractors, and others who, he said, “are being impacted by the green movement and are struggling with how to interpret the various requirements.” More information is available at www.iccsafe.org/green/.
