The project is a new, ground-up, manufacturing/warehouse/office building, and due to heavy process loads, it does not seem to meet LEED NC EA p2, and the owner will not purchase any new equipment to make the process more efficient. The owner and tenant are the same entity. Are we permitted to apply for LEED CS instead and leave out the build-out and process portion all together?

Joann,
Sounds like an issue. I don't think you would qualify for CS, and NC sounds like your only option at this point.
