FAQs about EAp1 :

Can the CxA authority be a member of the design or construction team?

What type of certification is the commissioning agent required to have?

The comissioning process turned up a few issues with the commissioned systems that should be corrected. Do we have to correct these issues and include documentation of that as part of our LEED documentation?

We would like to get a comment from someone that has had experience with this: When selecting a CxA, would someone that has eperience on 2 or more projects as the "Recommissiong Authority" be sufficient? Or, is the requirement specific to Commissioning only? Thanks.

Chad, I would assume that RCx experience would be valid here, since it's generally the same skillset. However, I don't know definitively—it may take a CIR or communication with GBCI to know for sure.

Chad, the GBCI has never questioned me on past commissioning experience. In fact I have listed a recommissioining project on the LEED online template to verify experience for a LEED NC 2009 project and there were no comments by the LEED reviewer. The intent is to verify that you have performed some type of commissioning services on two projects of similar size and scope.
