NC-2009 MRc2:Construction Waste Management

CWM Campus Credit

My project is composed of 10 buildings on a college campus. I know for a fact the CWM credit is a campus credit. How do I document this? Do i go to each building on LEEDONLINE and upload? There is also something called "Master Site". Could someone please explain what that is? Is that where I upload all campus credits? And how do I tell if a specific credit is registered as a campus credit or not? Please note that the waste diverted was for the entire site (the entire campus), and not building by building. Could someone please explain how and where I could upload this CWM campus credit?

Hi Ethan, A campus project is typically registered as a master site with associated building projects. I am assuming your project is registered that way. If so, yes CWM is a campus credit. You would designate it that way on line in the master site credit for MR2 and in each corresponding building credit MR2. Then you'd upload the documentation that includes all the buildings into the Master Site credit one time. This process is much more convoluted if your project was on the older platform and was converted. Not all credits can be pursued on the campus level. For guidance on all of these issues, you need to consult the multiple buildings guidance document. (http://www.usgbc.org/resources/leed-campus-guidance)

Michelle - Thanks for jumping in on this answer. Here's a few things I would add: 1. This is a link to some FAQs on campus that might help Ethan with some of the intricacies of LEED Online - http://www.usgbc.org/help-topic/campus-projects. 2. I've also heard that some people have experienced some issues with campus projects in LEED Online since the upgrade in January 2016. 3. Ethan - As a guest to LEEDuser, you can't see the FAQ above regarding LEED Interpretation #10265. Check that out in the Addenda Database - http://www.usgbc.org/content/li-10265.
