my client has an existing green cleaning policy not crafted in the format of LEED. i'm preparing a cover letter in the format of LEED to guide the LEED assessor to locate the information required within the existing green cleaning policy. my questions refer to filling out the template form as below:
1) in this case, do i need to click on the "additional details" portion to alert the assessor?
2) if so, do i click on "special circumstances preclude documentation of prerequisite compliance with the submittal requirements outlined in this form" or " project team is using alternative compliance approach"?

On the LEED Online form for this credit there is the following wording:"Upload a copy of the compliant Green Cleaning policy/contract that covers the project building and includes relevant requirements."It is followed by a checklist of requirements.My thinking is that an alternative compliance approach would only be warranted if not all of these could be checked off, or if you had a totally different way of approaching things or documenting them. My feeling is that your cover letter does the job and you shouldn't go on the alt. path.
