NC-2009 SSc6.1: Stormwater Design—Quantity Control
Greetings
Our project is a 30 year old building undergoing a Major Renovation and will be registered as LEED-NC v2009.
In calculating pre- and post-development runoff, do we consider the pre-development conditions of the site 30 years ago when the building was originally constructed (greenfield) or the site conditions before the renovation (existing building and grounds)?
Thank you.

Why do the requirements focus on 1-year and 2-year, 24-hour storms?
How can green roofs count as a stormwater control measure?
I have 100-year data—how do I convert to 2-year?
Are there special considerations for international projects?
What performance threshold do I need to achieve for an Exemplary Performance point?

LEED does not establish criteria for determining pre-development runoff.
Calc the pre based on today's footprint, the post after development.
