After building completion and once all submittals and clarifications are reviewed.
Correct Answer
D. After building completion and once all submittals and clarifications are reviewed.Explanation
Once construction is complete, the project team can submit its construction phase credits (design phase credits may be submitted earlier). Only once the certification review is complete, and the project achieves the minimum number of points and all prerequisites, is the project certified.Rate this question:

- B.
Contact LEED customer service to determine whether the CIR is likely to be successful.
- C.
Review past CIRs to see whether this issue has been addressed in the past.
- D.
Consult the appropriate LEED reference guide for a more detailed explanation.
- E.
Contact its local chapter to receive a preliminary ruling.
- F.
Identify other issues to address within the CIR
Correct Answer(s)
A. Review the credit intent and self-evaluate whether the strategy meets that intent.
C. Review past CIRs to see whether this issue has been addressed in the past.
D. Consult the appropriate LEED reference guide for a more detailed explanation.Explanation
From the Guidelines for CIR Customers, the three correct answers should be tried before submitting a CIR. While LEED customer service representatives may be able to assist users in determining whether an issue is of appropriate technical complexity to be a CIR, they do not advise applicants as to whether a CIR is likely to be successful. Likewise, local chapters do not play a role in the CIR process. Finally, only one concise question or a set of related questions may be addressed within a single CIR, so it is not appropriate to include other issues within the same CIR.Rate this question:

Correct Answer(s)
A. Provide a carpooling incentive to building occupants
B. Upgrade the company cars to hybridsExplanation
Providing a carpooling incentive increases the percentage of occupants who co-commute, thereby reducing the total vehicle miles of traveled. Upgrading the company fleet to hybrids or other low-emitting/fuel-efficient vehicles reduces the transportation impact per mile traveled, further lessening the environmental harm associated with automobile use.Rate this question:
-
