FAQs about WEp1:
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?

Thanks, Eric; I'd missed that in the addenda. So... based on that, it appears that janitor sinks are no longer required to be tracked for LEED? I guess maybe they're now considering this a "process" water use whereas in previous versions it was base building. It doesn't much matter in our case either way... the 30 or so gallons projected to be used by our project's janitorial staff is a drop in the proverbial (and literal) bucket; it barely moves our calculations by a percentage point.

Janitor Sinks do not need to be included in LEED calculations.
