Hello! First, thank you Tristan for adding a WELL discussion to this site. I'm sure it will be a great resource for a whole host of "do gooders" like myself.

SLLc6 in v2009 vs v4 - no slopes do/don't qualify?

ND-v4 SLLc6:Steep slope protection
posted by  GBD Architects  on 

Hi, the language in v4 is a little different from the v2009. v2009 explicitly says that sites without slopes can automatically qualify for the point. Does v4 remove that option?
