SUSTAINABLE BUSINESS PRACTICES <br />Dyer Management Center LLC will manage its operations with internal governance policies, <br />which will require energy efficiency and environmentally sound infrastructure and procedures. <br />The State of California and many of its localities have stated legal requirements regarding <br />energy and water use, and we will not only be adhering to those regulations but shall utilize as <br />many environmentally sound practices as possible. These practices include using drought - <br />friendly landscaping features, energy -efficient LED lighting with timers and motion detectors for <br />all outside areas. <br />Inside our facility, indoor lighting shall be controlled by motion detectors and timers in low - <br />traffic areas. Our water fixtures will all be low -flow and help us observe and maintain the <br />desired water conservation guidelines set forth by the City of Santa Ana. Our parking lot, <br />exterior lighting, and building facility will all be augmented by a fully integrated solar power <br />system because the location is an ideal candidate for the installation of solar power. We will <br />utilize a Santa Ana -based solar installation contractor for this project in keeping with our <br />commitment to the local community. <br />Our Standard of Procedures will guarantee that our waste is sorted to the standards set forth <br />by the City and Waste Management Services. We will be actively sorting our standard waste <br />from our mixed recyclables and other debris. We will also be incentivizing carpools and mass <br />transit as ways for our employees to travel to and from work, minimizing our overall carbon <br />footprint. <br />We will participate in LEED-compliant practices to meet certification requirements, ensuring <br />that we have the most energy -efficient facilities in the cities in which we operate. <br />To be even more sustainable, we will use recycled and renewable materials in our renovation. <br />Dyer Management Center LLC will be using items like bamboo, wood, recycled steel, and <br />precast concrete. The list of these construction materials will come from California's Green <br />Building Standards list (CALGreen). In addition, we will be using vendors who specialize in <br />sourcing other environmentally friendly materials for finishing this project. <br />These are a few of the proven practices we will use, which will show to reduce our energy and <br />water footprint. We are confident these practices will be effective and closely monitor our <br />environmental impact through quarterly reviews by management specific to our consumption, <br />waste, and overall impact on our shared community. <br />
