We are attempting SSc1 Option 2 Path 10 for a CI project within a CS registered building. My question is that the form provided for this credit automatically populated 30 sec. as a duration for public lavatory faucets. The CS form automatically populates a 15 sec. duration for public lavatory faucets. So, the CS form meets the 30% requirement, but the CI form does not. In addition, in the LEED-CI 2009 Reference Guide, Table 2, the duration for lavatory faucets is listed as 15 sec., not 30 seconds. I can not find any information in errata, interpretations or on this forum that address this discrepancy. Any information would be appreciated.

I recieved the following response from the USGBC:
"The CI form was incorrectly updated to match the CS WEp1 addenda which changed the duration for public lavatory faucets from 15 seconds to 30. Please use the following workaround: after selecting "Public lavatory faucet" as the fixture family, select "Other" from the Fixture Type drop-down. This will allow the Duration to become editable and you may type-in "15." Please use the special circumstances section of your form to explain the issue and the workaround".
