Can Building Envelope CxA be the acoustical engineer

NC-v4 EQc9:Acoustic performance
posted by  Edgar Arevalo  on 

I know under LEED that the design engineers cannot also be the Cxa, but does that also apply for an entity/company who is the building envelope CxA but can also be the acoustical engineers?
