Hi, Is reusing rainwater for flushing toilets an accepted solution for achieving this credit? Or is reusing for irrigation the only solution accepted? Thanks.

BH,
The intent of the credit is to reduce run-off from the site using LIDs and green infrastructure. In your case, I suppose the rainwater is captured in a rain barrel or a cistern in order to be reused for the toilet? If that's the case, this qualifies as an LID control and reduces run-off, thus meeting the intent of the credit. I believe you should be able to achieve the credit based on this.
