FAQs about MRp1 :

Are we required to collect and recycle food waste?

Our project will have a different area for recycling than what is recommended in the LEED Reference Guide. Is that okay?

I'm confident we have enough space allotted for recycling, but how much detail should I go into in documenting expected volume?

CS-2009 MRp1:Storage and Collection of Recyclables

Materials to be included

We are working on a project in Berlin. The city facilitates collection of metals commingled with residual household waste and diverts metals in a separate process, so diverted collection of metals is useless. (However biodegradables have to be collected separately for instance.) Is a description of this process sufficient to satisfy the requirements of MRp1 or is the provision of metal collection mandatory in any case?

All you have to do for LEED is to provide the space for collection and recycling. How recycling gets carried out differs from location. I would provide the appropriate space your project and describe in a short narrative how you sized this space.
