I would like to know what documentation is acceptable to USGS on the flush out process? Is there documentation from the BAS system required? Just wanting to make sure that I have all the required documentation to insure that I achieve the requirement before I being the building flush out

The latest form actually only requires you to: "Describe the flush-out procedure. Include flush-out date(s), outdoor air delivery rates, internal temperature, and relative humidity."
It does not specifically ask that you upload proof. However, I would recommend trending on the BAS if you have one.
On our projects we require that the BAS trend OA and SA quantities, space temperature and then have the contractor install Humidity sensors to trend during the flush out period. This gives us proof that the system perform per the LEED guidelines in case the form changes at some point or if the LEED reviewer has comments/questions.
