CI-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction
The baseline flow rate for lavatory sinks was reduced from 2.5 GPM to 0.5 GPM following after 2009.
The bathroom in my project has an existing bathroom and we are changing out fixtures.
My question is, if I have an existing bathroom with faucets that possibly are 2.5 GPM do I still have to use 0.5 GPM in my baseline?

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?
Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?
We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?
Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?
Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?
Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

Yes, you do, if this is a new LEED-CI certification under LEED 2009.
