FAQs about WEp1 :

We are having trouble finding EPAct-compliant fixtures. Is that a problem?

Where can I find a clear meaning of "public" and "private" as relevant to lavatory faucets?

Our project is a factory with historically a 95% male workforce. The restroom design accounts for this. Can I argue that the male/female gender ratio is different than 50/50?

Are shower duration controls an acceptable water-saving strategy?

Can I include process water savings in order to earn an Exemplary Performance point?

Will the reviewers accept a spreadsheet as a plumbing fixture schedule in lieu of the plans from the Construction Documents?

In LEED review comments I've been referred to the Water Use Reduction Additional Guidance document. I didn't know this was a required reference document.

Should I include bar sinks? What about mop sinks or janitor sinks? Swimming pools? Safety showers? Bidets? Tub spouts?

We provided new showers in our project to comply with the alternative transportation credit. Should they be considered in WEp1 calculations?

Can you explain the 12-second duration for metering faucets?

Can I use a nonpotable water source to contribute to WEp1 compliance?

Our project does not have any eligible water fixtures in the project boundary. Can we comply with WEp1?

NC-2009 WEp1:Water Use Reduction—20% Reduction

WEp1 Form V01

Hi, I have form V01 for WEp1, and I can't find any information to say that this form has been updated (V01 is the only one listed on USGBC forms source), but there was a reference somewhere to an updated form that allows for an automatic calculation of, for instance, dual-flush w.c.s. Is it possible this was only included in V4? thanks anyone....

Melissa - There are v03, V04, and v06 versions of the WEp1 form for LEED BD+C: NC 2009 per the Sample Forms link - http://www.usgbc.org/sampleforms/v3 and in the Credit Library - http://www.usgbc.org/node/1732070?return=/credits/new-construction/v2009/water-efficiency. Are you posting on the right forum (BD+C: NC 2009) because I don't see a v01 form version? I think the reference you are referring to is either the Water Use Reduction Additional Guidance document - http://www.usgbc.org/resources/water-use-reduction-additional-guidance - or the Water Use Reduction Calculator - http://www.usgbc.org/resources/2009-water-use-reduction-calculator - that is used with the v06+ forms.
