I am a bit confused by the information that is being requested at the top of on the LEED Online form associated with this prerequisite. Am I to input the planned weight/volume of generated and diverted waste as outlined in the uploaded Waste Management Plan, or the actual weight/volume of generated and diverted waste as documented in the associated credit? My sense is that I should be inputting the planned and not the actual values, but the wording is throwing me off. Can anyone give feedback on this?

Hi Marcia - Hope you are doing well! I opened up the MRp2 form (https://s3.amazonaws.com/leedonlineprd/documents/usgbc/leed/content/Cred...) and don't see the confusing language you are referring to.
The Construction and Demolition Waste Management plan is supposed to "provide the anticipated percentage of total waste that these materials represent" and you are to upload the plan but the form itself is the actual waste diverted. Since this is a construction credit, you won't complete this form until after Substantial Completion.
Does this help?

Michelle, I am well. I hope the same for you. Thanks for the response. The project is at substantial completion and I do have the actual generated/diverted waste values. The wording on the form does imply that actual values are needed, but I was confused as to why this would be needed on this form, since it was already included on the form for the corresponding credit. So I assumed that perhaps the form was asking for the anticipated values. Thanks for helping me clarify what is needed.
