How should projects in other countries submit for this credit, where Green Seal or Environmental Choice labeled products aren’t available and but local products might meet the credit intent?

EBOM-2009 IEQc3.3:Green Cleaning—Purchase of Sustainable Cleaning Products and Materials

GS-09 superseded by GS-01

When reading about Green Seal GS-09, IEQc3.3 criteria for paper towels and napkins, I saw on Green Seal's website that that criteria has been superseded by the 3rd edition of GS-01, "Sanitary Paper Products." I haven't seen an addenda on this topic for this credit. Do paper towels and napkins still need to be certified Green Seal GS-09 to count toward IEQc3.3 even though the standard has been superseded?

Johanna Good catch! But it appears that rather than being superseded, the products have all been combined under one group of GS-01. The title of the products page reads "Paper Towels, Napkins & Tissue Paper (GS-1, GS-9)," which would lead me to believe that they all still count. To be safe, I'd include a screen shot of this page in your submittal with a little note to the review team: http://www.greenseal.org/FindGreenSealProductsandServices.aspx?vid=ViewProductDetail&cid=12 Hannah
