Hi - I'm using the Option 2 - Prescriptive Approach for this credit, and I'm running into a few issues regarding the provided Excel spreadsheet.

With the new state wide green building code and local municipal requirements for landscape irrigation, how is a baseline developed when regional requirements now approach what was a 50% reduction?

We are using LEED 2009 for Retail: NC+MR templates, for one of our projects. In WE Pre-requisite 1Template, there is Process Water Use section. One of the column is named ADO.

This might be a rather simple question, but would like avoid confusion.

I have completed filling out the template for the prescriptive path, including over 75% daylit space, when skylight and window areas are combined, yet the template summary is still showing '0 point

Hi, We've only done the mechanical portion for this project but the client assigned to us the EAc1 credits.

I have a zero lot line project, so all landscaped areas are within planters on the plaza level, or in tree wells in the sidewalk.

Do I need to list out office space versus conference room versus copy room etc. on the Space Usage Type of this form?

I am confused on the Occupant Information section. We are building a conference center which will most likely have non 8-hour work days. How do I calculate FTEs. Does someone have a FTE tool?
