I'm curious about this Material Ingredient Reporting Credit, both PC76 and v4. Is there is a way to search existing projects for a specific credit to see which projects have earned it? I didn't see that as a filter option in the projects directory (http://www.usgbc.org/projects). Searching on that page for "PC76" and "Material Ingredient Reporting" turned up 0 results.
Thanks!

I am looking into this credit also and trying to mostly use Cradle to Cradle certifications. I didn't see any language on exclusion or inclusion of furniture like of the MR credits, did I miss something? Also does anyone know if Sherwin Williams' Environmental Data Sheets count?

I recently completed this pilot credit for submission. It has not yet been reviewed and approved. In the past year, I have attempted this pilot credit and it was too difficult to pursue. More recently, there are additional HPD's available which contribute to credit compliance. I have not found a database to search which projects pursued this credit. Also, Green Wizard has a database to search compliant products. I've had a lot of luck finding HPDs by simply googling. I pursued this credit on a core and shell project, so I did not include furniture.

Hello,
We have received comments back on this pilot credit. We used a combination of HPD, C2C and Declare certifications. There appears to be confusion about whether the Declare label complies with the intent of the credit. Through a GBCI inquiry, we received confirmation that a Declare label, if marked "LBC Red List Free" or "Declared", met the requirements of the credit. However, our reviewers said that it was unclear whether the Declare products selected for our project met the requirements (mostly whether they have been disclosed down to 1,000 ppm). We intend to respond with our GBCI inquiry # to help clarify.
Reviewers also questioned whether certain HPD's met the reporting requirements of the credit. Both HPD's reported down to 100 ppm, which is actually a higher level of disclosure than 1,000 ppm (0.01% vs. 0.1% respectively.) We will follow up with a narrative explaining this. We will post another comment on this forum once our final construction review is completed.
