FAQs about WEc1 :

We are using non-potable water for irrigation. For drought conditions, can we hook up to a potable water source for backup and still earn this credit?

Can non-potable well water that is used for irrigation contribute to potable water reduction?

Can surface water, such as water from an irrigation ditch or a local creek, be used as nonpotable water?

Do interior planters count in the calculation?

Has anyone had success using the LEEDv4 approach for WEc1 in v2009? It is not in the list of officially approved substitutions but it seems like a logical substitution.

Heather, I sent that question (via "Feedback" on LEED Online) and got this reply: “that one is not in the list [of approved LEED Credit substitutions] but you are welcome to submit a CIR to request it. In writing a CIR describe why you think it's applicable.”
