Since 2008, Washington, DC has been an active leader in the development of the STAR Community Rating System, serving on the Steering Committee and participating in the STAR Beta Community initiative. The District's Department of Environment and Office of Planning used the Rating System's framework of goals and objectives to inform the 2012 Sustainable DC Plan. As a participant in the STAR Community Pilot Program, DC will soon be equipped with a robust sustainability plan and the tools to measure, report and communicate its progress.
Over 30 STAR Community Pilots are currently testing the Rating System and its associated products. This Spring 2013, local leaders will have the tools they need to measure their progress and gain recognition in the STAR Community Rating System.
