Tommy Linstroth CEO Green Badger LEEDuser Expert 100 thumbs up May 13, 2022- 4:27 am Lance An EPD should be within the geographic range of the project- i.e. North America for US projects. We've seen some European EPDs accepted in US projects, but to be safe, it should be w/in the region. You can use a product across any BPDO credit- many products will have an EPD, and HPD and recycled content and contribute to all three credits.

The previous versions of LEED limited the MR credits to Divisions 2 through 10 and 12. It excluded MEP materials. Does the new version of LEED allow any material with an EPD (or HPD for that...
