LEED-AP-BD+C Exam Dumps : LEED AP Building Design + Construction (LEED AP BD+C)

Detailed Explanation:

The combination of alternative water sources (e.g., captured rainwater or reclaimed water) and smart scheduling technology (e.g., weather-based irrigation controllers) is an effective strategy for reducing outdoor water use. These measures exceed the prerequisite requirements and optimize water efficiency by tailoring irrigation to actual landscape needs.

Detailed Explanation:

To achieve three points under the Rainwater Management credit, projects must manage the 95th percentile of regional rainfall events on site. This approach minimizes the impact of stormwater runoff on local watersheds and supports the use of low-impact development (LID) techniques such as bioswales, green roofs, and rain gardens.

Achievement of the Location and Transportation Credit, Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses may be affected by the move of the main entrance to the opposite side of the building. This is because the credit requires that the project be located within a minimum density area and within walking distance of diverse uses1. The walking distance is measured from a main functional entry of the project building to the diverse use entry1. If the main functional entry is moved, the distance to the diverse uses may change and affect the credit achievement. The other credits are not affected by the move of the main entrance, as they are based on the location of the project site, not the building entry. The Location and Transportation Credit, High-Priority Site rewards projects that are located on sites that are previously developed, infill, or adjacent to existing development2. The Location and Transportation Credit, Sensitive Land Protection rewards projects that are located on sites that do not contain sensitive land features such as prime farmland, wetlands, or habitats3. The Location and Transportation Credit, LEED for Neighborhood Development Location rewards projects that are located within the boundary of a LEED for Neighborhood Development certified plan4.
