Is outdoor air quality testing required in a space using natural ventilation?
What options are available to projects outside the US to meet this prerequisite?
Can LEED 2009 projects elect to follow ASHRAE 62.1-2010 for this prerequisite?
Which units should be included in the calculations for this prerequisite?

Joseph, could you provide a bit more background and clarification? You say there's no natural ventilation, but also no HVAC? Maybe I'm missing something, but that sounds like a recipe for suffocation—definitely not ASHRAE-62 compliant! ;)
I assume this is a major renovation? Are there plans to use natural ventilation and/or HVAC going forward?
