Just to make dead sure my understanding is correct: The first line in the box under requirements here http://www.usgbc.org/node/10146311?view=language does mean, that a BD+C NC (v2009) project can earn the MRc7 following the pilot, correct? This means as well that a project cannot use this pilot under ID+C, correct?

Hi Jens, this Pilot Credit is also available for other rating systems, as well. For example, ID+C (http://www.usgbc.org/node/10146342?return=/credits/commercial-interiors/v4). This info can be found at www.usgbc.org/credits, at the bottom of the list or in Pilot Credit section, in the left side menu. I hope this helps.

Thanks Andres, just realised that I had a relevant typo. I did not mean "ID+C" but the Innovation category. I want to make sure that it is correct that this pilot should / must be used as alternative path to achieve MRc Certified Wood (this is what my project would like to do). Is this correct?

Hi Jens, thanks for the clarification. Yes, it is also my understanding that this ACP is to be used within the credit itself, and not as an ID credit.
