Schools-2009 WEc3: Water Use Reduction
WEc3
This project is the renovation of a government facility. The RFP states that the project will not be LEED registered, or attempt any particular point count. It does ask for compliance with LEED standards in several areas. One is WEc3. The entire facility is run on catchment water. Since the intent of the credit is reduce potable water use from municipal sources, is it fair to say that this requirement has been met?

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?

Use of rainwater as a substitute for potable water is a valid way of earning this credit, yes.
