TRC | 2017 SUSTAINABILITY REPORT IMPROVING OUR FOOTPRINT We manage and improve our environmental footprint through established targets for energy use, transportation and material management. In FY18 we also plan to explore the water usage in our offices. As we continue to grow our company and headcount, we strive to make our offices and fleet more efficient. Energy Use Based on the nature of our business, energy consumption associated with our office footprint is one of the significant ways we impact the environment through associated emissions. We have committed to reduce our energy consump- tion by 20% by 2020, normalized to full time employees. Our FY17 absolute office energy consumption increased by 25%, reflecting the growth of our business with the roll-in of the Willbros Professional Services acquisition. Without these new offices, we would have had a 4% decrease in absolute energy usage from the baseline. WHEN NORMALIZED TO HEADCOUNT, WE HAVE ACHIEVED 12% REDUCTION IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION SINCE OUR BASELINE WAS SET IN 2014. Operational efficiencies, including redesigning office space and employing more energy efficient technologies, as well as increased awareness and behavioral changes have contributed to this reduction. Moving forward, we foresee significant opportunity to improve our energy efficiency by incorporating energy use considerations in our office space lease negotiations. At the end of FY17 we began to develop a Green Lease Guidance document which includes sustainable aspects to include in new office space considerations. Use of the guidance document will be piloted in FY18. Other initiatives include expanding communications and visibility to energy use at the individual office level so that employees can compare their office energy use across other offices and across time. In FY17 we developed an energy use database to house our energy data and in FY18 will be rolling out an Office Dashboard with energy data and other sustainability metrics. 12 % 2020 TARGET Reduce energy consumption by 20 percent by 2020, normalized to FTEs 2.2 % 2020 TARGET Decrease CO2 emissions per mile by 10 percent by 2020 for TRC fleet passenger vehicles and light duty trucks Decrease in CO2 emissions per mile for fleet passenger vehicles and light duty trucks 2: since 2014 baseline 26 2 Reduction in energy consumption, normalized to FTEs 2
