Reference guide v4 BD+C:Page290: STEP 5: I didnot understand why a 0.15 is used in this equation. Is this for any kind of losses in the rain water storage process.

Our project has an outdoor area, as a part of the sports medicine department, which patients will use to do sprints, drills, and other exercises.

Is indoor irrigation not considered in this credit? If it isn't, could I consider it in the section "Innovation", since, in the project I'm considering, collected rainwater is used?
