In accordance with the requirements of this credit, the project team has developed and will implement a water-efficient landscape stategy. The project is aiming for Option 2, No Potable Water

Hi,

The following are the queries with respect to irrigation calculations:

Hi everyone, our project now has a vegetation ratio of 2.3% which is lower than required 5%, and there are a large number of the open parking areas on the ground.

Hello, We have a project that has a vertical garden on the exterior walls. Can we count this towards the 5% we need to comply? I tried to find answers, but no luck yet! Thanks!

What should the reference evapotranspiration rate (ETo) be expressed on the online form as? inches/month?

I would like to know, where I can find a good source for the specific landscape factors (species-, density- and microclimate factor) of plants for the calculations in the baseline case. Is it even

I should know this, but.... Is it OK to run the WEc1 calcs with the same landscaped area (in square feet), but with different plantings in the baseline and design cases?

Do the different species of plants need to be listed individually on the form or does 'Mixed' suffice? The green roof consists of a mix of trees, shrubs, and flowers. Thanks!

Hi, I have been advised that the sedum plants would meet this credit on green roofs due to the fact that the plants would be indigenous for landscaping in general.

I have a project that is considering installing green wall/vertical garden. We would like to pursue WEc1. Water Efficient Landscaping, Option 2 (No Potable Water Use on Irrigation).
