Abstract/Contents:Profiles Pennsylvania's Department of Environmental Protection (PADEP) headquarters. Describes the building's features that "reduce energy consumption and increase worker comfort." Concludes that "the project, which saves $50,000 per year in energy costs, was built for $78 per square foot. These budget numbers bear out the state's assertion that protecting the environment and preserving financial resources are not mutually exclusive goals."
