NC-2009 MRc2:Construction Waste Management

Building Demoliton outside my LEED Boundary

Hello, I'm currently working on a project where we are building a new dormitory. When the new dorm is up and running the existing dorm down the road will be demolished. Do I need to include that is the construction waste management plan? I do believe the plan is to bulldoze it after the building has been abated.

Faith - No - you do not need to include it in your plan as it is outside of the LEED Project Boundary. That said, the green building best practice would be to deconstruct it and reuse or recycle materials from the building instead of bulldozing it.
