## LEED Requirements

**LEED Certification Directive:**
- NASA Headquarters Facilities Engineering and Real Property Division has committed to using LEED as our performance measure for sustainable development. We have been directed from HQ that all new building construction and major building renovations with budgets greater than $500,000 shall meet the minimum LEED rating of Silver and strive to meet LEED ratings of Gold.
**	**
**What is LEED-NC 2.2?**
- The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) New Construction (NC) Green Building Rating System is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design, construction, and operation of high performance green buildings. LEED gives building owners and operators the tools they need to have an immediate and measurable impact on their buildings performance.
- LEED  promotes a whole-building a approach to sustainability by recognizing performance in five key areas of human and environmental health: sustainable site development, water savings, energy efficiency, materials selection and indoor environmental quality. LEED provides a roadmap for measuring and documenting success for every building type and phase of a building lifecycle.

- May 23, 2007

## LEED Requirements

**LEED Accredited Professional **
- Distinguishes building professionals with the knowledge and skills to successfully steward the integrated design and LEED certification process. LEED AP's have demonstrated a thorough understanding of green building practices and principles and familiarity with LEED requirements, resources, and processes through USGBC training and testing.
**LEED-NCv.2.2 Registration**
- This is the first step towards earning LEED certification for the building project. Registering during the early stages of project design will ensure maximum potential for achieving certification. Registration is an important step that establishes contact with the USGBC and provides access to essential information, software tools and communications.
- Upon registration, project contacts receive an orientation letter and access to _LEED-Online_. Once the project is registered, the project team begins to prepare documentation and calculations to satisfy the prerequisite and credit requirements current on the registration date. NASA is responsible for registering all JSC projects.

- May 23, 2007

## LEED Requirements

**LEED-NCv. 2.2 Certification**
- To earn LEED Certification, the applicant project must satisfy all of the prerequisites and a minimum number of points to attain a LEED rating level. NASA/JSC requires that all projects registered must achieve a LEED rating of Silver, strive for Gold. The contractors role in certification is to build project per drawings and specifications and to provide all LEED documentation specified.
**LEED Design:**
- Each project design will include a LEED checklist that indicates the LEED’s points that are being pursued for each project. Also each design will include a LEED Information Sheet which:
- Lists each credit
- Provides information on Application Documentation that is required.
- Provides information on Audit Documentation that is required.
- Lists who is responsible for documentation and when it is required.

- May 23, 2007

## Contractor Support

**Contractor Support of LEED Certification:**
- Must have LEED Accredited Professional on Project Team.
- Construct Project per Design Drawings and Specifications.
- Provide Documentation per Design Drawings and Specifications.
- Typical Documentation requirements for the contractor include:
- Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan
- Demolition Plan
- Asbestos Abatement Plans
- Recycling of demolished material
- Construction waste management and recycling
- New construction material recycled content
- New construction material VOC content
- Regional Material
- Certified Wood
- Commissioning Support Documentation (Testing)
- Construction IAQ Management Plan

- May 23, 2007

## Potential Types of Projects

## Special Considerations

**Contractor Safety and Health Program (Specification Section 01410)**
- Contractor shall have ZERO incidents as a goal
- Site/Contract Specific Safety & Health Plan must be approved       before Notice to Proceed will be issued
- Minimum Safety Training Requirements Part 1.8.4
**Contractor Quality Control (Specification Section 01451)**
- Quality Control Plan must be approved before Notice to Proceed       will be issued
**LEED Documentation (Specification Section 01350)**
- Pay close attention to LEED documentation requirements.  Every      point is critical in obtaining the LEED certification and we do not      want to lose points because of lack of documentation
**Waste Management (Specification Section 01351)**
- Pay close attention to recycling requirements
**Commissioning (Specification Section 01811)**
- This project has a very extensive commissioning plan due to      LEED requirements
