FAQs about MRc2 :

Should I include hazardous material such as lead-based paint in MRc2 calculations?

Should household-type trash from workers' lunches and office use be included in MRc2 diversion and calculations?

Can sending material to waste-to-energy plants count toward MRc2?

The requirements of this credit say that land-clearing debris does not contribute to the percentage of materials diverted from the landfill. What exactly is considered "land clearing debris"?

Oops! Our trash was measured by both weight and volume at different times. How do I standardize this?

The waste management facility we are using is providing us with monthly documentation specific to our waste, showing 80% diversion. They also have a published, facility-wide rate of roughly 20%, and they have no published rate for construction waste. Will

How is construction waste accounted for when utilizing off-site construction, like modular construction or pre-fabrication of assemblies?

How does MRc2 work for projects pursuing a campus approach, or any project where waste management will be shared with other construction projects?

Can materials that have been unused and returned to the manufacturer as part of a “take-back” program contribute to the credit?

We have finished the project whith a 97.2 % recycling, and are pursuing the one Innovation in Design credit. When we register the IDc1.1 we do not get to choose the MRc2 in the dropdown window. We have marked for Exemplary Performance in the MRc2 form. Can anyone give me a hint on how to solve this??

Andre, be sure when you Add/Remove Credits, it is for IDc1.1 for Construction and not the Design IDc1.1. That could be why you are having trouble since MRc2 is a Construction credit. The icon to the left of the ID credit number on the Scorecard page should be the hammer. If you have any empty or unused Design ID creidts but they are assigned credits, it could prevent you from adding the Construction ID credit. Also, be certain that the MRc2 LEED Credit Form confirms that you have achieved greater than 95% in the final calculation.
