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?

NC-2009 SSc3:Brownfield Redevelopment

Brown Field redevelopement

Hello, Due to budget issues, our client wants to decontaminate a portion of the site and not the entire site (only the areas were we are doing interventions). Would it be possible to achieve the credit only by remediateing to a portion of the site? Thank you

Sahar, The only way I know where you can bypass remediating an entire project site would be to divide the site into two legal parcels, if possible. Then remediate the parcel where your project is located. The remaining parcel(s) would still be contaminated, but would not be included within the project boundary.
