| ASHRAE's comittment to sustainability and to offset the environmental impact from holding the Annual Meeting. The Utah |
| ASHRAE host committee came up with the idea of installing solar panels to assist with the generation of domestic hot water for the |
| installation work for the solar-assisted domestic hot water system. Many others have contributed financially to this project. Please |
