I am working on a large dormitory project which requires a "spoil area" on an adjacent lot which accommodates the excess soil in the cut/fill process of regrading the site. Obviously it is affected by the project, but is not considered part of the project after the building is complete. The spoil area lot is separated by the project site by a main street so isn't necessarily "contiguous" from my observation. Is this area considered a part of the LEED boundary definition of "contiguous land that is associated with and supports normal building operations for the LEED project building, including all land that was or will be disturbed for the purpose of undertaking the LEED project?"
Thanks in advance!
