Entry Mats: Parameters on cleaning?

We are designing a school which includeds a library and access to a green roof. From my understanding, we need to provide entry mats at each regulary used entrance where there is an exterior condidtion. Are we to assume that the entry from the green roof requires a mat? Also, the checklist states that a cleaning schedule for the mats and narrative must be submitted. Are there any parameters on the cleaning agreement for the mat? Are they to be vaccumed weekly? Steam cleaned?

Is your green roof an accessible roof or are the doors there for maintenance? If the access isn't regular, you don't need the entry mats unless you want to provide them. As for maintenance, you will have to check the LEED User conversations below and the LI database for guidance.

We were informed by a LEED Reviewer only Emergency Exits were exempt from the requirement. (Project received LEED Gold using NC v2009)
