Hi. If you have a project that is utilizing LEED NC 2009, Do products have to comply with the latest Rule 1113 that was updated in September 2013 or if it was registered prior to it, just have to comply with what's in the reference guide?
You rely on LEEDuser. Can we rely on you?

For LEED 2009, Rule 1113 is essentially a fly in amber locked into the limits in effect on January 1, 2004. An interpretation last year allows substitution of the CARB 2007 Suggested Control Measure for architectural coating VOC for any of the coating categories. The reference standards are now posted on the USGBC website:

The original, printed Reference Guide should be used as a first glance due to the later Credit Interpretations. The 2013 interpretations is intended to smooth out potential conflicts with green building codes.
