    As a builder in the commercial industry I sometimes  have a difficulttime reassuring my clients that their buildings would be able to attain leed certification because it was so hard to achieve. I try hard to reassure them, but it can be very unpredictable to reach the Green rating. Since many cities and states are mandating the certification, it is imperative that the buildings meet the criteria for LEED target levels and help them maintain a good budget at the same time. Having a green structure can be very costly. The Green Building Certification Institute has the ultimate decision on whether a building project meets LEED standards.
