Hi,
Need your suggestion and expertise on this inquiry? We do have a land which we manage and maintain, this land is covered with native vegetation and is not within the project LEED boundary.
Should this be classified as ONSITE or OFFSITE? Also, for OFFSITE, is it a must that the offsite facility should be own by a 3rd party?
thanks again and more power.

Hi Alfred, if this area is not within your LEED Boundary, it sounds like it would be considered OFFSITE. As long as this area is protected and it is not double counted towards other LEED projects achieving the same credit, this land can count towards the credit requirements. I would think it does not have to be 3rd-party owned but you would need to present the same type of documentation to demonstrate compliance.
