I have a Core and Shell v2009 project. I've seen that a number of people have been using this credit as an ID credit for NC projects. Is it safe to assume that we can use it for CS also? Do we need to write any language into the lease language that the tenants have to meet the criteria? Or would we pretty much be covered by the Core and Shell lighting which will all be LED?

Hi Jose
You do need to incorporate a low mercury purchasing policy in the lease agreement and make it binding for the credit to count toward a CS project.
Good luck!

What does the maximum target picogram level need to be? I've seen 90 in the credit language; 80 in the ID#5500 ruling for NC projects (though that ruling also states that it does not apply to CS projects); and 70 in some of the responses here on LEEDuser. Which is it? I need to get the language inserted in the lease by Friday before it's finalized.
Also, is there any place I can find lease language for the credit? Do I just need to reinterpret the performance requirements for the plan? Or does there also have to be a specific performance period included?
