10/15/2012 - JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. -- As Team Andrews participates in Energy Action Month this October, members have the opportunity to observe two of the Air Force's newest and greenest buildings right here on base.
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design tours of the William A. Jones III Building and Jacob E. Smart Building here are designed to show how their environmentally-friendly features helped them achieve LEED Gold status.

operating costs.
