During a major renovation of an existing office building, an owner decides to replace a portion of vegetated roof with additional photovoltaic panels. The office building is located in an urban area and will qualify for Sustainable Sites credit, Development Density. The vegetated roof will still cover 70% of the remaining roof surface area. Which of the following LEED credits would NOT be affected by this change?
A: Site Development: Protect or Restore Habitat
B: Site Development: Maximize Open Space
C: Stormwater Design: Quantity Control
D: Stormwater Design: Quality Control
E: Heat Island Effect: Roof

参考答案: E

本题解释:
Notes:

This change would not affect SSc 7.2, because 70% of the remaining roof would still be vegetated. Option 2 of SSc 7.2 only requires at least 50% of the roof to be vegetated to earn a point for this credit.

For projects earning SSc 2, vegetated roof areas can contribute to credit compliance for SSc 5.1 and SSc 5.2. Removing a portion of vegetated roof could negatively affect these credits.

Reducing the surface area of vegetation would also negatively affect SSc 6.1 and SSc6.2.
