Specialty Appropriate for the Project

NC-v4 INc2:LEED Accredited Professional
posted by  Douglas Flandro  on 

I am a LEED AP ID+C. I mostly work on LEED NC BD+C. Will I need to retake the specialty exam in LEED v4 to qualify for this credit? If so, do I need to take the LEED Associate Exam?

indoor irrigation

NC-v4 WEc1:Outdoor water use reduction
posted by  Francesco Passerini  on 

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?
