A project using recycled materials manufactured 750 miles from a project site would not impact what LEED credit?
A: Community Connectivity
B: Regional Materials
C: Recycled Materials
D: Construction Waste Management

参考答案: A

本题解释:
Community connectivity addresses development in urban areas and helps to use existing infrastructure, protect greenfields, and preserve habitat.
Using recycled material from far away does not contribute to Community Connectivity;The quantity of regional materials a project uses is determined by the percent of materials used on a project. Even though the recycled materials are outside of the 500 mile limit, the cost of those materials are still going to be part of the regional materials calculations;The question states the materials are recycled, which would impact the total recycled materials; The use of any material may impact the amount of construction debris. For example, if a project purchased steel rebar that contained recycled steel and had to cut the rebar to length, the scraps may end up being recycled again or going to a landfill.
