If we want to borrow this credit for use as an Innovation Credit in a NC project, how would we fill in the LEED Online form with data since the form for this credit does not show up in a LEED Online NC project? Would we be able to just submit the inventory tracking Excel sheet? Also, since it applies to purchases during the Performance Period, what timeframe would be required for an NC project? Thanks for any help you can provide!

Terry, you can grab the MRc4 form from LEED Online—see the link near the top of the page labeled "Download Sample Forms."

You might also be able to request an official version of the EBOM Credit Form through the GBCI Feedback Form in LEED Online.

Also, keep in mind that for some reason GBCI is using a limit of 80 picograms/lumen-hour for the threshold when using this as an Innovation point.

I am working through the same question. I just emailed my GBCI review group for guidance on what MRc4 template to use. I'll let you know what they say.
Also, I have the same question about the performance period. Since my project is NC 2009, it doesn't have one designated. What might be a logical time period to use? The submission date and include three months prior?
Thanks for any guidance.

I am currently in the process of submitting this credit as an Innovation credit on an NC project. I have included in the Special Circumstances that there is no performance period since this is an NC project.

Hello again,
Emily - including an explanation in the special circumstances makes a lot of sense.
I did get a responses back from my review team about these issues too. They are listed below.
As far as filling out the EBOM-MRc4 template - To access sample forms, log into LEED Online v3 with a site user account, and proceed to the “Sample Forms Download” link. A completed copy of the Active or Static MRc4 form will be acceptable.
Then about including a performance period - Yes, you are correct to not address the performance period requirements listed in the form, since your project is not EBOM. All other requirements outlined in the form should be followed.
