If all the plumbing fixtures are to be installed in future by tenant, and if I check Tenant Neutral for WE p1; I will not be able to achieve the prereq. 20%. Is this typical?

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

Yes. That's correct. Because it's assumed that the tenant than just meets Epact 1992 not improves it by 20%. You will have to have some improvement with fixtures installed in the building. Keep in mind just because the tenant installs them all, doesn't mean you would not consider them in the calculation.
