Dear all,
I was wondering if ALL of the SMACNA recommended measures need to be implemented on site to get the credit? For example, the SMACNA paragraph on "Modifying Equipment Operation" states an option of switching from diesel to bottled gas equipment such as generators or fork lifts.
Is the contractor obliged to switch from Diesel to gas powered generators?
This is very hard sometimes to achieve in certain countries!
Many thanks,

George, please see the LEEDuser content above for discussion of the issue of following all or some of the SMACNA guidelines. You're not required to follow all the guidelines. I would simply be very careful about skipping them and only do it if you have a good reason, which it seems like you have in this case. Ultimately it's up to the reviewers to decide if you went far enough.
