NC-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
Our reviewer has noted in the technical advice that "for projects registered after Feb 2, 2011, a 30 second duration is required for lavatory faucets." We have used either 15 seconds, or 12 seconds on other projects registered after this date with no issue. I can't find where this is coming from, and they did not reference any particular addenda. Anyone know?

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?

Never mind. I just found it! We can still use the 15 and 12 for autocontrol. Thanks.
