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?

Hi guys. We are pursuing LEED v2.2. Our project have five separate residential building. We will provide recycling area where each building entrance. But we don't know how much area is needed. For LEED reference guide, it mention about commercial case only. So, should I follow commercial case? Please help me~~

Here's a California source that discusses residential generation rates... http://www.calrecycle.ca.gov/wastechar/WasteGenRates/Residential.htm You do not need to follow the LEED Reference Guide, but rather describe and defend your volume.
