The National Association of Home Builders introduced its new edition of the ICC 700 National Green Building Standard at the 2013 International Builders' Show in Las Vegas.
The International Code Council and the American Society of Plumbing Engineers both are developing a standard on rainwater catchment systems that each hopes will be designated a national standard by the American National Standards Institute. Both initiatives include January deadlines for either committee applications or public comment.
Thanks to the new process, the ICC code hearings for the plumbing, mechanical and fuel gas codes are only held once every three years. So the last week of April and first week of May was it for next three years.
