 Monterey Bay Chapter
February 27, 2012
Members of NARI:
I am writing to you on behalf of the executive board of the Monterey Bay Chapter of ICC (International Code Council). We feel the relationship between the Building Department and the construction industry is an important one. We are inviting you all to become a member of our Chapter. We hold monthly meetings on the third Thursday of each month in the Marina Library. As a member of our Chapter you will have the ability to attend the many educational offerings at a discounted price, purchase code books at a discounted price, and have a forum to discuss any code, process, or construction related questions to Building Officials in your area.
One of our goals as Building Officials is to ensure that all construction projects are completed according to code and in a safe manner. We cannot complete this task without your help. Please take a few moments to consider joining our Chapter, and give any one of the Officers listed a call if you have any questions.
Thank-you,
John Kuehl

Will working on a LEED home put your technicians in danger? Yes, says a new study on construction safety that shows there are 50 percent more injuries among construction workers on LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) projects than conventional structures.
The study, called "Identification of Safety Risks for High-Performance Sustainable Construction Projects," from a researcher at the University of Colorado, uses anecdotal evidence to make its conclusion, according to an article from freelance journalist Katie Fraser that appear in the .
The most dangerous LEED-related tasks are installing sustainable roofing, PV panels and skylights. While "dumpster diving" on jobsite trash bins to retrieve renewable items that shouldn't have been tossed also adds to cuts, abrasions and lacerations.
