The new Nationals Ballpark, currently being built on the banks of the Anacostia River will be the first ever "Green" MLB facility.

The DC Sports and Entertainment Commission (DCSEC) yesterday authorized the design changes. The DCSEC will submit an application to the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design program from the U.S. Green Building Council, which grades construction projects for their sensitivity to the environment.

To achieve LEED ceertification, a structure is graded on a points system for environmentally and energy efficient design.
