We had registered our CI project for PC9 prior to the change to the credit that limited it to Homes projects. We just received our certification review, and the reviewer acknowledged we had done all the submittal and process requirements. However, the reviewer states that because the project is not located in an area that complies with the minimum intersections requirement, the ID credit is denied; instead, we "may apply for an alternative ID credit".
It is clear from the PC Library documentation that only alternative compliance path PCs must meet the technical requirements in order to earn the point; for other PCs, the project needs to comply only with the documentation and comment processes. After all, there's not a lot of incentive for a project to go through the extra effort of documenting, participating on LEEDUser and providing feedback if credit non-compliance means you won't get a point!
We are going to re-submit pointing out the PC Library documentation. Has anyone else run into this with reviewers?
