Would anyone inform if permeable pedestrian sidewalk on the ground, recharging groundwater, may be counted towards the achievement of the restored área and ecollogic site feature? Tks

Marcio, sidewalk space, even if it's permeable, doesn't contribute to habitat onsite and so doesn't help with this credit. If you are also earning SSc2, it might help you with SSc5.2 however.See the bird's eye view tab above for an explanation on how these two credits fundamentally differ.
