Would an innovation credit or a pilot credit similar to the following be considered legitimate? Or is the scope too narrow? Thank you for any insight!

Intent: To reduce waste-to-landfill rates of one or more non-recyclable on-going consumables waste streams that are not readily recyclable through municipal recycling or the contracted recycler and are not included in the MR prerequisite.

Requirements:

Conduct a waste audit and identify a waste stream in the building and/or workplace that is currently not being recycled and makes up at least _% of non-recycled waste stream in terms of volume or weight.

Solve for the ongoing waste stream through reusing, upcycling, and/or recycling the waste. Waste-to-energy solutions would not be applicable under this credit.

Implement an education program to educate and engage occupants around the building’s recycling efforts of the target waste stream.
