Bob Rose
Bob Rose has worked for the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) since graduating with a Masters Degree in Engineering from the University of Maryland in 1990. He joined EPA prior to the final phase out of Chlorofluorocarbon (CFCs), chemicals largely responsible for atmospheric ozone deletion, which was the focus of his graduate school research.
After the phase out of Chlorofluorocarbons he worked for the ENERGY STAR program, where he designed and managed the nation's first and only benchmarking system for comparing the energy efficiency of commercial buildings based on actual energy consumption and statistical comparison. Over 25% of the nation's commercial square footage has voluntarily been benchmarked, with the best performing quartile eligible for recognition by ENERGY STAR.
Since joining Office of Water in 2005, his interests have included technologies and methods of expanding water quality monitoring, partially as it serves water quality trading in which low cost, off site pollution reductions can be credited to regulated point sources.
