Inquiry

Due to the educational need for higher construction density due to facilities infrastructure and program adjacencies requirements it is the intent to set up a Conservation Land Bank to be used to comply with the requirements of Sustainable Sites Credit 5.2 Site Disturbance. Portions of the land bank would be assigned to each LEED project on a building square foot basis using an assignment ration of 1 to 1. As an example for a facility with a 25,000 square foot building foot print, 25,000 square feet would be assigned to that facility in the conservation area. The assigned land bank areas would be assigned all requirements of the creidit definition.
