There is an existing athletic field within our project's LEED boundary that we would like to include in our calculation for SSc5.2 in order to earn exemplary performance.
Per LEED Interpretation #10217, "All LEED projects can choose to include or exclude athletic fields at the project team's discretion from WEc1. However, if such areas are included, they must be included in all other applicable credit calculations."
We will be excluding the athletic field from the WEc1 calculation, so does that mean we have to exclude it from the SSc5.2 calculation as well? The interpretation only addresses the inclusion of the athletic field. Any feedback would be most appreciated!

I don't have any experience with this but I am inclined to think that they may not let you count it for SSc5.2 and exclude it for WEc1. I don't know that for sure though. Since it is for an ID point, I would probably try it and see and have a backup ID point such as exemplary performance for Green Power "in my back pocket" to plug in if it doesn't work.
