CS-2009 IDc1:Innovation in Design

Educational Outreach for On-site Recycling

In my LEED Reference Guide (2009 Edition), in the Materials and Resources section (p. 340), I found the following sentence: "Project teams seeking an Innovation in Design credit for educational outreach can create signage and displays to inform building occupants and visitors about on-site recycling." Our team is considering this, but I have yet to further information on what is required. I found a CIR on Green Building Educational program which outlined fairly extensive requirements (permanent signage, published guidebook, interactive educational tour). Does anyone know if the requirements are the same or similar? I can't imagine it's as simple as creating some static displays but maybe I'm making it too difficult. Suggestions?

Marci, the guidance provided by LEEDuser here:http://www.leeduser.com/credit/CS-2009/IDc1under "Educational programs" should provide the background you're looking for.

Thanks for the quick response. I don't see an "educational programs" section though...

It's above under the Bird's Eye View tab... you have to be logged in as a member, though, as it's part of our premium content.

Found it, thank you. It looks like the signage about on-site recycling is just one piece of a larger educational outreach effort. Makes sense.
