CS-2009 WEp1: Water Use Reduction
Hello
Our current core&shell project does not include sanitary installations, which will only be built at tenant fit-out stage. LOv3 for core&shell produces generic data based on our tenant recommendations. However these are not binding. Can anyone clarify this procedure?

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?

Hi Jens,
If your CS project does not include any regulated plumbing fixtures in the scope of work then I believe you would be exempt from WEp1 but cannot achieve any points under WEc3. However, if you want to achieve points under WEc3 for the LEED CS building then you will need to have a binding Tenant Sales and/or Lease Agreement.
Please see the LEED Reference Guide for Green Building Design and Construction, 2009 Edition (Updated June 2010) Core and Shell Appendix 3 and 4 for additional information on the options available.
Hope helpful!
