We have Project intending to be registered under LEED 2009 BD+C for major renovations. This is an existing building which will undergo major renovation work for the interiors, HVAC and a large extent of the external façade (structural systems). Can the Project be considered under LEED NC Major Renovations?
And regarding the credit Construction Activity Pollution Prevention the query is as follows:
The documentation for strategies/activities to reduce pollution from construction activities, should only focus on the renovation areas? Or should it, also encompass the activities implemented earlier, during the construction of the existing building?
Thanks in Advance

JP, yes that sounds like a LEED-NC project in terms of scope.For SSp1, you would want to include the whole building, because NC is a whole-building rating system. The plan can be customize, of course, to only cover activities that will actualy take place in the scope of work. There is no need to go back in time with a ficitional plan for existing construction.
