products such as alternative agricultural products, plastic lumber, and constructed wetlands.It may also be necessary to create new narrowscope sections to more efficientlyorganize the proliferation of similar, competing products such as fiber insulation (cellulose,fiberglass, mineral wool, cotton), rock insulation (perlite, basalt), and foaminsulation (polystyrene, polyisocyanurate, polyurethane, glass, and cementitious)..E X H I B I T S.Following are four comprehensive exhibits that provide detailed examples for design andconstruction professionals regarding environmental specifications and procedures, andenvironmental impact and indoor air quality questionnaires for use with manufacturers.These exhibits are provided as examples of the environmentally oriented specificationforms and questionnaires developed and used by BSW International, a major internationalarchitectural/engineering firm. They provide an excellent example to help organizationsgain an understanding of the issues and develop similar documents to satisfytheir own unique requirements. The exhibits are as follows:■ Exhibit 1 — Section 01150, Environmental Procedures (Sample Specification, BSWInternational)■ Exhibit 2 — Environmental Specifications Format (Sample Format, BSW International)■ Exhibit 3 — Environmental Impact Questionnaire (EIQ) (Sample Form, BSWInternational)■ Exhibit 4 — Indoor Air Quality Questionnaire (Sample Form, BSW International).N OT E S.1 New title anticipated for 1995 Edition of the CSI Master Format, projected for early 1996 publication.2 New number and title anticipated for 1995 Edition of the CSI Master Format, projected for early 1996 publication.3 New title anticipated for 1995 Edition of the CSI Master Format, projected for early 1996 publication.4 New number anticipated for 1995 Edition of the CSI Master Format, projected for early 1996 publication.
