Credits 5 & 6 are from the LEED for Healthcare Rating System, which just completed member ballot. In Healthcare, Credit 5 is a prerequisite and Credit 6, a credit.. So, to mirror that, Credits 5 is a prerequisite for earning Credit 6. You can do Credit 5 only, for 1 point, or Credits 5 & 6 for 2 points (using 2 of your IDc1 available points), but Credit 6 cannot be earned without Credit 5. On a related note, Credits 5 & 6 from the Pilot Credit Library will be closing to new registrants on 1/11/2011. Credit 42: Integrated Process, currently IPc1 in the public comment drafts http://www.usgbc.org/DisplayPage.aspx?CMSPageID=2360 will replace 5 & 6 and will be worth 1 point.
