Is it a requirement for the April 2012 template to use all materials ( we are not using Div. 12 materials) across the template for Recycled Content, Regional Materials, and Certified Wood? Under L-3 we have listed all materials we are using and some do not contribute credits to 4, 5 or 7. We have a figure for total materials cost but does that mean that all materials listed including Div. 12 materials are to be listed under L-3? Some materials like iron fencing do not use wood but it is local and pre-consumer recycled so do we list that for MR 7 too?

I'm not sure exactly which form you're using, but if it is the one I think (and if I understand your question correctly) there should be a table L-4 where your Division 12 materials will be listed. They do have to be included regardless of whether they contribute to earning a credit. The table will collect the data for all materials. Some materials may contribute to more than one credit while some may only contribute to one credit. All of that data can be captured in the template.
