FAQs about EAp1 :

Can the CxA authority be a member of the design or construction team?

What type of certification is the commissioning agent required to have?

The comissioning process turned up a few issues with the commissioned systems that should be corrected. Do we have to correct these issues and include documentation of that as part of our LEED documentation?

Language of Documents

Does anyone know how the documents and technical specifications of the different projects (HVAC, Electricity, Lighting, hot water, etc.) have to be presented to the GBCI in terms of language? I specially wonder about Prerequisites EAp1 and EAp2 since all the documents provided by the designers will be developed in the native language and it is very complicated to translate them all. Instead can a Summary in English be presented along with the documentation in the native language? Is there another way to present it?

Catalina, I think the best explanation of this issue that I have seen is in this post on translation of LEED documentation by Jean Marais.
