Ad Hoc Advisory Committee on Environmental and Construction Standards Membership

The mission of this committee is to examine the current building, construction and physical plant codes for health care facilities in the wake of extreme weather experienced recently with Hurricanes Irene and Lee and Superstorm Sandy. This forum will be an opportunity to share the lessons learned and the research conducted by government agencies, health care providers, design professionals, major construction companies as well as consumers and the general public.
