FAQs about MRc4:
The recycled content percentage on the product data sheet is given as a range. What should I do?
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?

Paving, Site Improvements, & Planting—Yes.
Irrigation & Constructed Wetlands—No.
LEED-2009 limits MR Credit materials to those specified in CSI MasterFormat 2004 Divisions 03-10, Foundations Sections 316000-316999, Paving Sections 321000-321999, Site Improvement Sections 323000-323999, and Planting Sections 329000-329999.
This is a change since LEEDv2.2, which used an older version of MasterFormat and included irrigation and site utilities.
