NC-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
I'm not sure if this is an error with the LEED Online template or not, but when I change the operating days per year and leave all other information constant, the percent water savings changes. Does the baseline case assume 365 days per year or is there something else going on?

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

are you using rainwater or graywater?
I used the NC2.2 template and it only changes the percentage if I also enter rainwater and keep it the same in both cases. Otherwise the percentage seems to stay the same with 0 gallons of makeup water. This would make sense.

That would make sense, but we're not using any rain/gray water for this project. Thanks though.
