You have to demonstrate that each distinct aspect of your plan was implemented at least 20% of the time during the performance period. So, if one of your 5 pieces of landscaping equipment is a mulching mower, you're good for that section. However, you would still need to show at least 20% implementation for de-icers, window washing, etc.

I understand I need to show compliance in the other sections, I was just confused about the maintenance equipment in particular. On the template, the table under performance metrics lists "uses electric power", "mulching mower" and "low smoke oil" under the maintenance equipment column. Under the implementaion target column for these items it says under each of these "include site-specific targets, no lower than 20%". The way it reads it seems like I have to have 20% of my equipment use electric power, 20% of my equipment be mulching mowers and 20% of my equipment use low-smoke oil.

Nope - you just have to meet a minimum target of 20% of the aggregate collection of equipment.
