FAQs about SSp1 :

Am I exempt from this prerequisite if I have a zero-lot-line building? What if the site work is minimal due to the scope? What about a renovation? What if the excavation and foundation work is minimal due to the construction materials I am using?

What are BMPs for steep slopes?

I have a technical question about a specific control measure and whether LEED requires it. What guidance is available?

Is there a preferred method for documentation?

What suffices as far as a date-stamped photo?

Can I still earn the prerequisite if the project started considering LEED after work began?

NC-2009 SSp1:Construction Activity Pollution Prevention

LEED Boundary / Silt Fencing

Currently working on a project that is a large site with an existing building currently on the site. The new LEED building is away from this current building creating a smaller LEED Boundary than that of the entire site. We plan to locate a silt fence around the entire site and not around the LEED Boundary of the building. Is this an acceptable way to maintain the SS Pre-Req. or do we need to have silt fencing encompassing the LEED Boundary as well? Essentially double fencing?

Michael, the silt fencing should be located in a logical way relative to meeting the objectives of the ESC plan. It has no relation to the LEED boundary.
