Maria, If you go to the USGBC site. http://www.usgbc.org/DisplayPage.aspx?CMSPageID=2346 it looks like CI is not included yet. See below Learn more about ACPs for specific rating systems: New Construction Schools Existing Buildings: Operation & Maintenance Core & Shell

Eric is right, but if the credit is very similar to the NC/CS credit and the standard approach doesn't work then I would encourage you to at least try it. There doesn't seem to be too much international customization in the LEED 2012 documentation yet, but I saw a few things (particularly related to VOC testing) that could prove useful. Again, not guaranteed, but if you are following their rules and fulfilling the credit intent then you should have a strong case.

Thanks a lot! I knew that CI was not included, but just in case someone had heard anything about ACPs for CI. Thanks again! María
