We propose adding filters to water faucets in kitchens, pantries, etc in an owner-occupied commercial building, instead of purchasing bottled water. Does anyone have any experience submitting this as a credit? Would it be under this credit? Or MRc1? Or is it an innovation point, if we can demonstrate the savings in fuel and material....
thanks!

I don't see how this contributes to any LEED credits, since it's not about a purchase, and it's not about waste management, except for the best kind, i.e. prevention.I am also doubtful that it could earn you a point under IOc1. Innovation credits must generally be comprehensive strategies, not just impelementation of a single technology, as you're doing here. It strikes me as a good thing to do, but as sometimes happens, not something that LEED currently recognizes.
