FAQs about INc1 :

Is there a list of Innovation strategies available to v4 projects?

What happened to all of the operational policies and plans that we could pursue for Innovation credit under LEED v2009?

How do I meet the requirements for the “Community outreach and involvement” innovation option?

I’m confused about how many points I can earn for each strategy (innovation vs pilot credit vs exemplary performance). Is there a limit on each type of strategy if we want to earn all five Innovation points?

We achieved exemplary performance for more than two credits. Can we claim more than two points?

One of the credits we used for exemplary performance didn’t actually end up earning exemplary performance. Can we replace it with a different credit that did?

We didn’t claim one of our credits as an exemplary performance point under INc1 during the design review, but now we’d like to because it earned exemplary performance per the review comments. Is it possible to claim it now?

Implementation of Water Leak Detection and Monitoring Pilot

It is not clear what the action plan must have in order to comply with the requirements of the credit. Is the action plan aimed to described the actions to be taken ones the alarm of the leak detection system is initiated or also the prevention strategies to avoid a leak?

Hi Lorena, I think Post alarm Action plan is almost always reactive/response-focused. It describes what happens after the leak detection system triggers an alarm. This need not to include any preventive strategies, these normally live in a separate document, like maintenance plan etc.
