FAQs about SSc2 :

We’re pursing the onsite option. Do I have to provide the scientific names for the plants on our site?

For a previously developed site, how is existing soil restored?

Is the offsite financial support a one-time fee or is it ongoing?

Hi all, 

I saw two much older posts touching on this, but no certain outcomes...

Has anyone been able to confirm if a green / vegetated exterior vertical wall is able to contribute to the compliant area? And assuming that vertical area may or may not carry over to the Open Space credit, depending on what the plantings are?

Of note: LI #5310 (which forbade vertical elements) does not apply to v4: https://www.usgbc.org/leedaddenda/5310
