Hi,

• How to apply Priority Designation option outside the U.S

Have y'all found any handy tools similar to the HUD or Opportunity Zone maps that we typically use for US projects...but for Canada?

Dear Community

I hope you are doing fine.

I have a question regarding the Option 2 in high-Priority site. In LEED V4 it says: 

I'm working on a project that is considering pursing the LTc3 High Priority Site credit, Option 3 Brownfield Remediation at the campus level.

Hello!

I'm working on a project which is on a site that was in a Qualified Census Tract in 2019.  However, the site is no longer within a QCT.

We have a project that has had a Phase 1 and II ESA performed. It found there was acetone and mercury on site.

Hello All,

Does anyone know if the new Opportunity Zones established by the  U.S. Department of the Treasury, which certifies economically-distressed communities, would fall under Option 2?

Hi!

Hello,

Our project site qualifies both for Option 1. Historic District and Option 2. Priority Designation of the credit. Is it possible to claim two points for this credit?

Dear all, can anyone explain "satisfaction of the authority"? Under German law the property owner is obligated to remediate all contaminations.

We have a project that is not required to do site contamination testing, and does not believe there is any reason for the site to have contamination (they have always owned the site), so they did n

Hi all,

Our project is located 2 blocks from the nearest historic district, but is within the Downtown area encompassed by the local Main Street Program.

I am working on a project in a rural NC town which has a historic district in its downtown area.  Our project is downtown however the historic boundary goes around our block essentially surrou

Our project site is determined to be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Does this eligibility satisfy the requirement? Thanks in advance for your feedback.

Hello,

Is there a year before which a building can be consider historic for USGBC?

Okay, I'll start this off by stating the requirement, and then asking a (simple) question. LEED v4 requirement: Locate on a brownfield where "soil or groundwater contamination has been identified"

Can this credit be achieved if the remediation occurred outside of the LEED project scope? My understanding is that this was not allowed for the Brownfield Redevelopment credit under LEED v3.

The project conducted a Phase I ESA and concluded that there maybe potential for chemical vapor intrusion to indoor air from off-gassing associated with the groundwater plume, therefore a phase II

Is option 1 viable if you demolish a non-listed building in a historic district and build a new one in its Place?

Would an officially designated industrial zone which provides tax incentives to businesses be considered as an eligible "high-priority site" to locate a project on? Thank you.

Hi, my project located in an old district where has a lot of old architecture buildings around with tourist.

In Germany the (property) owner has to arrange inquiries regarding the soil pollution and burden by weapons, explosive ordnance and combat equipment (military hazardous waste).

A campus project I am working on is located on a site where some agricultural contaminants were discovered in the soil.

can anyone explain historic district? i don't exactly know what that is

Does a project still qualify for credit if the site is within a DDA boundary that is set to change in the upcoming months?

Can any project get this credit if they're in a DDA area? It seems like the DDA only exists to identify areas where additional subsidy is needed for low-income housing.
