FAQs about SSc3 :

Is earning one point for this credit an appropriate reward, given the work involved?

Do we have to get testing done even if contamination is obviously present?

If the remediation work is not part of the LEED project scope, can I still achieve this credit?

Are there minimum contamination thresholds that need to be met in order for a site to be classified as a brownfield?

Am I eligible to earn the credit if there is ongoing remediation on my project site and remediation is not yet complete?

If the Phase 2 Environmental Assessment identifies only part of the school property as contaminated and to be remediated, will the completed partial site remediation be enough to achieve the point? In other words, can less than the entire site be remediated and still earn a point? (is there a minimum site area that must be remediated?)

Donald, yes, there is not a requirement that 100% (or any other %) of the site be physically contaminated in order to earn this credit.
