Does anyone know if it is possible to pursue both option 1 & 2? I am working on a project that is treating 100% of it's waste water on site via a spetic tank and leech field AND is also using low-flow fixtures and flushing with only captured rainwater and cooling condensate water. So can we purse both options? And exemplary preformance? Any thoughts on the best approach to this to get the max points?

Perhaps purse option 1 under the credit and take exemplary preformance for it. Then apply for an ID credit for our waster water system?

You're going to be able to earn three points here—or four if this is an RPc1 credit in your zipcode.You can use one or both options to earn two points through credit compliance, and then one Exemplary Performance point via IDc1.Does this answer your question?

No RP credits because this an international project. Yes I think I will just use option 1 for 2 pts plus 1 EP point. I was just asking about gettin more points because we are also doing option 2 (treating 100% of wasterwater and infiltrating on site). Perhaps I can take the 3 pts and apply for and ID for pt. for option 2? But I'm pretty sure you can only get 1 ID point per credit. I just feel like we should get more points since we are meet both options 1 & 2 100%. And really both have very measurable positive environmental effects.

Nelina, I think you'll be happy to read this news that RPc1 is available for international projects. There's your fourth point for WEc2!

We are flushing with captured rainwater AND on site septic, attempting to go for two points and an EP. However I am unable to select both option 1 and option 2 simultaneously. Is there any trick to overriding the template?
