Future tenants include U.S. Marshals Service Offices, the U.S. Attorney Offices, Probation Offices, Pretrial Services, U.S. Senators, and U.S. Representatives.

GSA wishes to provide specific energy usage criteria, and tasked Setty & Associates for professional assistance. The energy usage targets are realistic and in accordance with current energy simulation methods and PBS P-100 criteria.

The task is to provide a Building Energy Model by using DOE-2.1, determine the energy consumption target at the building boundary, use all the schedule lighting criteria, daylighting and other schedules while utilizing Chapter 5 and Chapter 6 of GSA PBS P-100 for all the inputs including:

• Dedicated outdoor ventilation system
• Horizontally zoned air handling units
• Perimeter and interior heating and cooling systems
• Central plant system
• Building automation system
• Water economizer cycle
