The IEQc7.2 Cooling Mode table asks for the Design Operative Temperature, Maximum Design Humidity and Design Air Speed for the four seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter). Is it OK to complete only the Summer values?
Thanks in advance.

No - you need to account for all four seasons. This is one of the main objectives of the credit - to make sure that part-load conditions are being considered and addressed. Humidity control is sometimes difficult to achieve under part-load conditions.
