The program is a joint initiative by the Property Council, the Water Corporation and the City of Perth.The recognised office buildings were:Albert Facey House;Council House;Dumas House;John Tonkin Water Centre;1 Adelaide Terrace;151 Royal Street; and 100 St Georges Terrace.”The Waterwise Program helps owners and managers of commercial office buildings to carefully monitor their water use and implement water saving measures.””This is another example of the leadership role that the commercial property sector is taking in delivering environmental sustainability.””All of Perth’s new commercial buildings are built to high standards, and an increasing number of our older buildings are being upgraded to achieve higher environmental ratings. This is a result of owners and tenants seeking lower water and energy bills, as well as competition between buildings seeking new tenants.”For more information, visit www.watercorporation.com.au/home/business/saving-water/water-efficiency-programs/waterwise-office-program.
