I recently opened the LOL V3 NC form for IEQc3.1 and found that Table IEQc3.1-1 has three new columns - CEN Rating, Min Dust Spot Eff and Arrestance in additon to the MERV rating. How do I find the LEED addendum for these new requirements?

Ted- CEN rating and dust spot efficiency/acceptance are alternate compliance methods to MERV (mostly for international projects) not additional requirements. So, feel free to continue to only fill out the MERV column. You can find the updated credit text in USGBC's credit library: http://www.usgbc.org/node/1732335?return=/credits
