NC-2009 IEQc3.2:Construction IAQ Management Plan—Before Occupancy

Definition of Occupancy

I'm having trouble finding a dfinition for "Occupancy" We want to pursue IEQc3.2 using Option 1,Path 2 for a movie theater. Can we bring in staff for training during the initial delivery of 3,500 cf of outdoor air / sf? After this phase is complete, we will open the building to patrons and operate normally while the balance of the flush out is completed.

Commissioning can occur during the flush-out if it does not introduce any additional contaminants into the building. Enhanced Commissioning requires owner training. . . so yes, training can occur during the flush-out; provided the training does not introduce any additonal contaminants. To be proactive, you may want to include a narrative outlining how additional contaminants were not introduced during the flush-out due to the trainings. The LEED review team may require this narrative. Hope this helps!
