I am working on a Massachusetts public works maintenance facility. it involves 2 separate structures; an office building and a garage. The office building would require flush out procedure, but what about the garage space. I am not sure that it would be occupied full time, it has 2 overhead doors, limited heat and exhaust with no fixed furnishings or interior finishes. Anyone's thoughts. Thank you

The gross floor area listed in Project Information form 2 excludes all parking areas. To maintain consistency between LEED Online templates I would suggest not to include the garage.
Also, the minimum program requirements state that if the project serves less than one annualized FTE, optional credits in the IEQ category cannot be achieved.
I would include the above notes on the credit template when documenting compliance with the credit intent.

Thank you for the input. I will cross reference this with my HVAC designer.
