LEED-EBOM credit as ID credit

I was looking through LEED-EBOM and saw IEQc2.1, Occupant Comfort Survey. This seems like a pretty easy credit to achieve. However, it's kind of the same thing as NC IEQc7.2, Thermal Comfort Verification...making it worse for us is that this is a residential building, so we are actually ineligible for IEQc7.2, Thermal Comfort Verification. Is there any way I can justify submitting for the EBOM credit as an ID point?

Only certain LEED-EBOM v2009 credits are approved for use by NC projects as ID credits. LEED-EBOM v2009 IEQc2.1 is not one of them for the overlap that you note. If the same credit/intent exists in your rating system, you typically aren't allowed to use the other rating system credit as an ID slot. You can find the list of eligible other rating system credits on the very last page of the LEED-NC Project Submittal Tips (http://www.usgbc.org/resources/leed-project-submittal-tips-new-construction-2009).
