Are there any significant changes in the baselines for WEc3 between NC 2.2/2008 and EBOM 2009? The project is in a desert location with a large xeriscape mono-surface area, it's being built to NC and will then be certified under EBOM. It's assumed that the credit from NC will flow cleanly into EBOM, would any additional calcualtions/considerations will be required?

If you check the latest form V5, you will find, if submetering for irrigation is installed, option 2 is not allowed. Which means, you have to use either option 1 or option 3. So the answer to your question depends on if the submetering for irrigation installed: 1, if installed, you need to use different baseline 2, if not instaled, baseline not chanced compared to LEED NC2.2 P.S. My observatoin of LEED V5 form shows different direction from the Q&A above (indicating Option 2 is always an available methodology). Someone may help to confirm which one is correct. Thank you!
