On May 31, 2012, at the 2012 Acterra Business Environmental Awards celebration, Hawley Peterson Snyder and the University of California Santa Cruz received a Sustainable Built Environment Award for the Cowell Student Health Center project at UCSC in Santa Cruz, CA. A student-led initiative to increase fees provided the $1.25 million needed to incorporate additional green measures in the project and achieve LEED Gold certification for the Center's seismic renovation and expansion project. The new Center exceeds Title 24 by almost 17% and has reduced water use by an estimated 42.6% despite its additional 11,000 square feet of space.

Acterra’s Business Environmental Awards is one of the San Francisco Bay Area’s oldest and most prestigious environmental recognition programs. Initiated in 1990, it is considered a heavyweight among award programs due to its rigorous application and judging process. “Our awardees must demonstrate their environmental commitment and achievements through a careful vetting process,” states Committee Chair Laura Teksler. “In addition to a thorough written application, the top contenders must demonstrate their programs’ merits firsthand to the judges during a visit to the applicants’ facilities. By the time they are selected to receive our award, they have truly proven that their programs are “setting the bar” in corporate environmental leadership.”
