Take the steps to conserve energy and improve the environment and your budget.
Nearly one-third of the energy used to run typical government buildings can be conserved. Reducing energy consumption allows you to spend money on other critical things in your community.
Through cost-effective improvements identified for the construction of the St. Lawrence County Jail in Canton, the building and its systems reduced its energy consumption, decreased demands on the power system and increase occupant comfort. Many measures were taken to save almost $148,000 annually in energy costs.
