I believe the requirement is to meet the water-savings threshold for the project as a whole. You are not required to meet the thresholds on a fixture-by-fixture basis. So yes, that is ok.

Hello, what savings threshold is this? I don't remember coming across anything like that, so I was assuming every sink/wc needed to be w/in the baseline. My building is using the 160% baseline and our savings are about 33% right now, excluding a faucet case like above which has no fitting aerator and has a gpm not w/in the 160% baseline (0.8 gpm) limit for public lavatory sinks. I can leave it alone? But I should put in a separate fixture group for it since it is one high gpm sink?
