NC-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
We understand from experimenting with the forms that the results are influenced by the male to female ratio. Are all projects required to use a 50:50 ratio? If it is possible to alter the ratio to reflect the actual gender ratio in the project facility, what documentation is required to justify a ratio other than 50:50?
Thank you!

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

Your documentation needs to indicate the gender ratio will last for a long lenght of time - for example it cannot be something similar to 'this type of building has 75% female user ratio due the functions held inside" because the functions may change and there for the gender ratio may change.
