Add the rated power of all equipment and the rated power of Energy Star labeled equipment for your project to your equipment list. The rated power is usually imprinted on the equipment (in watts or kilowatts, i.e., kW) or you can use the standard values in the LEED Reference Guide, EAc1.4 Table 2 for equipment and appliances listed there.
After remediation is completed, your environmental professional should write a letter stating that the site cleanup has been conducted to local, state, or federal standards. This letter should describe the actual remediation steps in detail.
Depending on the extent and type of remediation required, it is possible that some site features may be affected. For example, it may be less expensive to cap contaminated soils with concrete, leaving no room for landscaping or stormwater infiltration.
Each contaminated site requires different remediation efforts. The remediation technique you use should be based on the type, extent, and concentration of contamination, as well as the risk level. Some examples of remediation techniques are:
If local standards are equal to or more stringent than the CGP,you'll need to provide a narrative report detailing this. Write the narrative when you do the comparison, so that it's fresh in your mind.
