Hi, I was wondering if there is a minimum percentage for the protected area for SSc5.1 compliance. In our green field project almost all of the project boundary will be disturbed, the building, inner streets and hardscapes are about 90% of the boundary. Thank you!

Roberto, I am a little confused about your question. If you are going with Option 2 of this credit there are specific requirements for what % must be protected. Can you clarify what you're asking?
