There are no LEED v4 ND RP credits on the regional priority credit lookup on the USGBC website. Can these projects receive RP credits? If so, should they target LEED v3 ND RP or LEED v4 BD+C RP credits?
Thanks!

Nate,
Thank you for your question. The interface for LEED ND v4 Regional Priority Credits (RPC) has not been completed yet, and thus there is no way to look them up at this time. That functionality is being developed and will be available in the near future.
In the interim, ND v4 projects are still able to earn RPCs. They are largely unchanged from ND v2009, which are still available on the website at http://www.usgbc.org/rpc. If you would like official confirmation of the RPCs available for your ND v4 project, please email neighborhoods@usgbc.org with the project address.
Best,
Casey

Sarah,
I was able to look up Regional Priority Credits at that address using the tool for v2009 projects. Where is this project located? Perhaps the location is the challenge. I also tested both Internet Explorer and Chrome browsers. Did you receive an error message, was there no information displayed or other challenge?
In the filter section, you will need to select either "LEED ND: Plan" or "LEED ND: Project" - both will return the same results and are a product of the new naming convention in v4. Then select "v2009", the Country of the project and then you will likely be prompted to enter the Zip code if in the US.

I should also add that RPCs show up in LEED Online if your project has already registered. Under the Credits tab, RPCs are denoted by a small grey circle with a magnifying glass in it to the far right edge of the row by each eligible credit.
