For June, the featured presentation is titled: An overview of Oregon Building Codes Division legislative report about options to reduce greenhouse gas emissions attributable to building materials, given by Anne Gire.
Anne Gire joined Oregon Building Codes Division (BCD) in March 2024 as a Sustainability Policy Analyst on the policy and technical services team. BCD exists to work with building officials, technical committees, advisory boards, and the public to adopt, amend, and interpret the state building code, including standards for construction methods, products, and materials used for new construction, and reconstruction, alteration, or repair of existing buildings. Anne’s current role at BCD is to study opportunities to align lower carbon material policies with building code compliance pathways in Oregon construction. Anne works closely with others at BCD that are dedicated to mitigating the impact of buildings on the environment, with a focus on energy efficiency and decarbonization.
