Tristan-It is so helpful to have LEED User interpretation for these addenda. Incidentally, have errata now been combined into the quarterly addenda? Thanks again!

Marian, the errata were renamed the addenda when LEED 2009 came about. The errata still exist for v2.2 and other earlier rating systems, and are now housed on the same page of the USGBC website. I don't think the errata and addenda, have been combined, per se.Thanks for reading!

Under LEED NC, IEQ 8.1, do you mean that the minimum threshold is now changed to 10 and not 25?

Thanks Tristan and LEED User for this information. I especially appreciate the information on errata, addenda and their applicability to registered projects. I have taken over a few older LEED projects (LEED for Schools V 2.0 and LEED NC v2.2) that were on hold due to financing, and I will have to carefully investigate the addenda /errata for each as I work on these projects.

Tristan,
Thanks for the great summary of the changes. Are the addenda effective for all projects currently registered under the relevant LEED rating systems, or do they only apply to projects newly registered after the release of the addenda?

Kacy, you are subject to the LEED rating system as it exists on the date you register. Any addenda published after that date are optional. Since some addenda, are beneficial for credit achievement, you may want to exercise that option at times.

Thank you. For projects registered after the addenda, will the changes be incorporated into the LEEDonline interface, i.e. will the credit forms themselves reflect the addenda that were incorporated before its registration date?

"subject to the LEED rating system as it exists on the date you register."
I, and others, have found that the above, although it how LEED is supposed to work, is not what actually occurs in a review.
