Built Green® Checklists
Building projects are qualified using the Built Green® checklists, organized into environmentally friendly action categories. Builders and architects use the checklists prior to construction to determine which features to include in the home. When construction is complete, builders send a signed copy of the checklist to the CWHBA, certifying that the home identified in the application contains the identified features.
Based upon the builder's submission, and after reviewing the application, the CWHBA will award the appropriate Certificate of Merit indicating that the home has received a 2-, 3-, 4- or 5-Star rating. Member companies also receive a handbook that details each one of the credits contained within the checklist.

Checklists for the following will be available in 2008:
