In the example listed in Table 3, the points earned for a 36.3% and a 15.8% reduction should be 10 and 5, respectively.
After section 7. Documentation Guidance, add section 9. Exemplary Performance with the following text: "Projects that comply with all five material groups are eligible for exemplary performance under the Innovation in Design section."
Under Indoor Environmental Quality, remove IEQ Credit 6.2 Controllability of Systems--Thermal Comfort. An exemplary performance point is not available for this credit in LEED for Healthcare.
Add a third column to the table under 'Commercial Process Water Use' with metric unit conversions, titled: ‘Baseline (Metric Units).’
Please reference specific prerequisites and credit in the Credit Library for a complete table.
Revise the greenfield definition to read:
"greenfield area- that has not been graded, compacted, cleared, or disturbed and that supports (or could support) open space, habitat, or natural hydrology."
Add the term "previously disturbed":
"previously disturbed areas that have been graded, compacted, cleared, previously developed, or disturbed in any way. These are areas that do not qualify as 'greenfield.'"
Option 1, Step 2. Change last bullet to read “Collect manufacturers’ documentation of SR and paving permeability, as applicable, to verify compliance. Selected materials may meet either the initial SR threshold or the 3-year aged SR threshold. They are not required to meet both.”
Option 2, Step 2. Change last bullet to read “Collect manufacturers’ documentation of SRI, as applicable, to verify compliance with credit requirements. Selected materials may meet either the initial SRI threshold or the 3-year aged SRI threshold. They are not required to meet both.”
Under Requirements, revise inherently nonemitting sources sentence to read:
Inherently nonemitting sources. Products that are inherently nonemitting sources of VOCs (stone, ceramic, powder-coated metals, plated or anodized metal, glass, concrete, clay brick, and unfinished or untreated solid wood) are considered fully compliant without any VOC emissions testing if they do not include integral organic-based surface coatings, binders, or sealants.
Under Further Explanation, Inherently nonemitting materials, revise last two sentences as follows:
EA prerequisite Energy Efficiency Best Management Practices:
Step-by-Step section> Step 7: Delete third bullet point: "energy use breakdown by major system types or end uses"
Further Explanation > Energy Use Analysis: Delete 5th and 6th paragraphs from this section. The 5th paragraph begins "Determine the appropriate breakdown of energy use..." and the 6th paragraph begins "Use engineering calculations..."
