Davis recognized for energy-saving measures

Steven Iselin, Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Energy, Installations and Environment), presented Aviation Electronics Technician 1st Class Steven Davis, from Fresno, Calif., assigned to Fleet Air Reconnaissance Squadron (VQ) One, with a trophy for energy conservation at the Skywarrior Theater on Naval Air Station Whidbey Island (NASWI). Iselin gave VQ-1 the 2nd Quarter Energy Efficiency Award for facility improvements in the energy efficiency competition during his visit to NASWI. VQ-1’s building efficiency was increased through daily inspections of squadron spaces including heating systems, lighting, envelope, appliances, IT and water systems. These efforts contributed to a 53 megawatt-hour (11 percent) reduction in energy and 24,000 gallon (27 percent) reduction in water usage versus last year. The award comes with $10,000 in facility improvements. (U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication Specialist 3rd Class Caleb Cooper)
