FAQs about MRc4 :

I have recycled content information for a product, but it doesn’t specify whether it is pre-consumer or post-consumer. What should I do?

The recycled content percentage on the product data sheet is given as a range. What should I do?

The manufacturer can't give me product-specific recycled content data, but they say that they fall within the national industry average. Can I use that?

Is the default average recycled content value of 25% for steel still allowed?

Can site materials, such as soil, be included in the MR credit calculations?

Are there recycled content claims that I should be wary of?

Can I count FSC-certified MDF toward both MRc4 and MRc7?

If I have one cut sheet that meets the LEED 2009 requirement to upload 20% of cut sheets by cost, for this credit, is that acceptable?

CS-2009 MRc4:Recycled Content

MR5

this is my first time inputting into LeedOnline - as I cannot find interactive help on that site - I have no idea what to put in the columns where the extraction distance cannot be determined - do I leave it blank? do I put >500 ? Thanks for the help.

Hi Christine - I think you mistakenly posted this to MRc4: Recycled Content when you wanted to post it to MRc5: Regional Materials - http://www.leeduser.com/credit/CS-2009/MRc5. My two cents - if the extraction distance is unknown or greater than 500 miles, then the product does not meet the credit requirements and it does not need to be entered.
