We received a review comment that the amount of sodium or calcium chloride in the deicer product must be less than 5%. Is there a place where this is specifically mentioned as the requirement? Thank you

Hi Cathy, LEED Interpretation 10146 (from April 2012) states that "deicer products that contain no greater than 5% of Sodium Chloride (NaCl) or Calcium Chloride (CaCl) in their applied state" are compliant. I believe this is the only place this rule is mentioned.
