The professionals at Rice & Gardner were chosen to provide MEP Engineering and to serve as the Commissioning Authority for this project, and to assist in earning LEED Certification for New Construction. Sheldon Lake State Park is enhancing its facilities with new structures and the renovation of some existing structures, all designed so that the people of Texas will have better and more comfortable access to the wildlife in the park’s 2,800 acre outdoor education and recreation facility. The services provided by Rice & Gardner include fundamental commissioning services for the HVAC systems, water heating, and lighting controls. We are creating and implementing the Building Commissioning Plan and Commissioning process, and overseeing LEED Commissioning activities performed by the design professionals and contractors during the design and construction phase.
