The definitions of green infrastructure and low impact development strategies appear to exclude capturing roof rainwater for reuse within the building for toilet flushing, irrigation, cooling tower makeup, etc. Is it really true that capturing and reusing the water within the building will not help earn this credit because it's not a strategy that mimics the site’s natural pre-development hydrology? Isn't much of the point of this credit to significantly reduce or eliminate stormwater runoff from the site by any means?
