We are working on a DCP with associated parking space and a minor office space. Is LEED NC appropriate for this utility building? If so, is there a minimum floor area requirement for the offices in order to apply the IEQ credits? I appreciate the help.

Banafsheh, yes, you could pursue LEED-NC for this building. You cneed at least one FTE to apply the iEQ credits.

To clarify (sorry Tristan) you must comply with the IEQ pre-requisites even without a single FTE. However you may not attempt ANY of the optional (regular) IEQ credits - this is directly from the reference guide plus an administrative USGBC response. Hope this helps!
