Were there any common reviewer comments or documentation challenges that I should be aware of before submission?

Hi Diana,One of the most common review comments is a request to confirm that all water end uses representing 5% or more of the project's total water consumption have been included in the calculator. Therefore, I would recommend including a brief narrative confirming that the calculator complies with this requirement.Another common comment relates to the units used in the calculator, so make sure that the calculator is set to the same units as those used in your supporting documentation.Thank you.
Coordinate your square footages from the project information tab to be consistent throughout all other credits like optimize energy. Make sure a team member is assigned to all credits. Triple check the data entered into the credit forms matches the uploaded calculators in EPDs, material ingredients, recycled content, & water usage reduction etc...Coordinate the areas in the takeoffs for sustainable sites credits. Do not leave any sections blank in the worksheets for site assessment and integrative process. Double check the optimize energy performance data matches any renewable energy credits you purchase. If you purchase early and then your model changes, you could need to buy more RECs. Label the files you upload for EPDs, material ingredients, recycled content, and low emitting with "Row #_product.pdf" so the reviewer can easily understand what documents go with which row.
I just realized you were asking specifically about water usage...my bad!
