FAQs about MRc7 :

We are using a lot of reclaimed wood. Should we include this in our MRc7 calculations? What about wood that is already installed on the project, in a renovation? What about wood products with recycled content?

Does FSC-certified bamboo products count towards this credit?

A product has FSC-certified veneer, but a non-certified core. Can we prorate the MRc7 contribution of this product based on the cost of the veneer?

Should wood used on site features such as benches or a gazebo be included here?

Is there a minimum quantity of wood that must be used on the project to qualify for this credit?

We are pursuing IEQc4.5 from LEED-CI as an ID credit. Are we then required to include the cost of furniture in MRc3–7?

What building components are typically purchased with FSC content to earn this credit?

We’re having trouble getting FSC wood within our budget. Can we use products with another forestry certification?

Do I need to provide invoices for all of the new wood products purchased for the project, or just FSC wood products?

I have supporting manufacturer documentation for the FSC wood used on our project. Is this enough to document this credit, or do I need invoices as well?

Can products labeled “FSC Recycled” or “FSC Recycled Credit” contribute towards MRc7? What about "FSC Mix" percentages that refer to recycled content?

Does FSC-certified wood automatically contribute to IEQc4.4 as a low-emitting material?

NC-2009 MRc7:Certified Wood

Type of receipt

Don't know if the same happens in the US but in Brazil we have different types of receipt: the receipt of sale - issued by the vendor; receipt of transportation - issued by the carrier; receipt of shipping - also issued by the vendor, but with no fiscal value, it's only to join the product until its final destination. Which one of these receipts must have the CoC#? thanks

From an FSC CoC standpoint, both the receipt of sale and the receipt of shipping should have an FSC CoC code (as well as an FSC claim for the certified product -- e.g. "FSC Mix Credit, FSC 100%"). From a LEED standpoint, however, I believe that the only one that really matters is the receipt of sale.

I would concur with Jason. We typically only provide the receipt of sale, and have never had a problem with the review when provided.
