Hi, I am working on a multi-tenant office building. One tenant with over 70% of the rented area doesn't want to give their concsumption data.

The DES guideline (2010) allows us to model DES cooling plant with a COP of 4.4, which includes cooling towers and primary pumps.

We have a site that has a strip of prime farmland, which we are not building on per se. We have a retention pond with a water feature in mind for that area.

Our building includes offices attached to a manufacturing facility by a hallway and kitchen area. The initial goal was to just get the offices and kitchen area LEED certified for EBOM.

Would lab casework like in this brochure fall under the 'systems furniture' definition of this credit? Thank you. https://fscimage.fishersci.com/images/D16549~.pdf
