Notes:

Reference: GBES LEED Green Associate Study Guide
A:Water efficiency can be accomplished by efficient irrigation, efficient plumbing fixtures, graywater use, etc.

B:These strategies do not contribute to compact development.
C:Some of these strategies can help capture nonpotable water.
D:LID is an approach to land development (or re-development) that works with nature to manage stormwater as close to its source as possible. LID employs principles such as preserving and recreating natural landscape features, minimizing effective imperviousness to create functional and appealing site drainage that treat stormwater as a resource rather than a waste product.
