1. INTENT
To encourage the use of products and materials for which life cycle information is
available and that have environmentally, economically, and socially preferable life
cycle impacts. To reward project teams for selecting products verified to have been
extracted or sourced in a responsible manner.

2. REQUIREMENTS
Responsible Sourcing of Raw Materials

Use products sourced from at least three different manufacturers that meet at least one of the
responsible sourcing and extraction criteria below for at least 15%, by cost, of the total
value of permanently installed building products in the project ( for 1 point).

Use products sourced from at least five different manufacturers that meet at least one of the
responsible sourcing and extraction criteria below for at least 30%, by cost, of the total
value of permanently installed building products in the project ( for 2 points).

1J Extended producer responsibility. Products purchased from a manufacturer (producer)

that participates in an extended producer responsibility program or is directly responsible
for extended producer responsibility. Products meeting extended producer responsibility
criteria are valued at 50% of their cost for the purposes of credit achievement calculation.
2) Bio-based materials. Bio-based products and materials other than wood must be
tested using ASTM Test Method 06866 or equivalent method ISO 16620-2, or be certified
to the USDA BioPreferred Voluntary Labeling Initiative that includes verification via
ASTM 6866 testing. Exclude hide products, such as leather and other animal skin
material.
o Bio-based products that meet the criteria above: value at 50% of cost multiplied by the
biobased content of the product for the purposes of credit achievement calculation.
o Bio-based products that meet the Sustainable Agriculture Network's Sustainable
Agriculture Standard in addition to the testing requirements above: value at 100%
of cost multiplied by the biobased content of the product for the purposes of
credit achievement calculation.
3) Wood products. Wood products must be certified by the FSC Forest Stewardship
Council or USGBC-approved equivalent. Products meeting wood products criteria are

Definitions
product (permanently installed building product) - an item that arrives on the project site either
as a finished element ready for installation or as a component to another item assembled
on- site. The product unit is defined by the functional requirement for use in the project; this
includes the physical components and services needed to serve the intended function
of the permanently installed building product. In addition, similar product within a
specification, each contributes as a separate product.
2 raw material - the basic substance from which products are made, such as concrete, glass,
gypsum, masonry, metals, recycled materials (e.g., plastics and metals), oil (petroleum
polylactic acid), stone, agrifiber, bamboo, and wood
3 extended producer responsibility - measures undertaken by the maker of a product to accept
its own and sometimes other manufacturers' products as postconsumer waste at the end of the
products' useful life. Producers recover and recycle the materials for use in new products of the
same type. To count toward credit compliance, a program must be widely available. For carpet,
extended producer responsibility must be consistent with NSF/ANSI 140-2007. Also known as
closed-loop program or product take-back.
4 biobased material - commercial or industrial products (other than food or feed) that are
composed in whole, or in significant part, of biological products, renewable agricultural
materials (including plant, animal, and marine materials), or forestry materials. For the purposes
of LEED, this excludes leather and other animal hides.
5 reuse - the reemployment of materials in the same or a related capacity as their original
application, thus extending the lifetime of materials that would otherwise be discarded. Reuse
includes the recovery and reemployment of materials recovered from existing building
or construction sites. Also known as salvage.
6 postconsumer recycled content - waste generated by households or commercial, industrial and
institutional facilities in their role as end users of a product that can no longer be used for
its intended purpose
7 preconsumer recycled content - matter diverted from the waste stream during the
manufacturing process, determined as the percentage of material, by weight. Examples include
planer shavings, sawdust, bagasse, walnut shells, culls, trimmed materials, overissue
publications, and obsolete inventories. The designation excludes rework, regrind, or scrap
materials capable of being reclaimed within the same process that generated them {ISO
14021). Formerly known as postindustrial content.
8 structure - elements carrying either vertical or horizontal loads (e.g., walls, roofs, and floors) that
are considered structurally sound and nonhazardous.
9 enclosure - the exterior plus semi-exterior portions of the building. Exterior consists of the elements
of a building that separate conditioned spaces from the outside (i.e., the wall assembly). Semi-
exterior consists of the elements of a building that separate conditioned space
from unconditioned space or that encloses semi-heated space through which thermal energy
may be transferred to or from the exterior or conditioned or unconditioned spaces (e.g., attic,
crawl space, basement).
10
chain of custody (CoC) - a procedure that tracks a product from the point of harvest
or extraction to its end use, including all successive stages of processing,
transformation, manufacturing, and distribution

3. APPROACH AND IMPLEMENTATION

#1 Determine total value of permanently installed building products in the project
Product and materials cost includes all taxes and expenses to deliver the material
to the project site incurred by the contractor but excludes any cost for labor
and equipment required for installation after the material is delivered to the site.
To calculate the total materials cost of a project, use the Actual materials cost. This
is the cost of all materials being used on the project site, excluding on-site labor
but including delivery and taxes.
The required scope of this credit is permanently installed building products, excluding
mechanical, plumbing, electrical, (MEPJ and specialty equipment and items
purchased for temporary use on the project. Furniture is not considered permanently
installed and is not required to be included in the credit. However, furniture as well
as other optional MEP products may be included. If optional products or materials
are included in cost-based credit calculations, they must be included consistently
across all cost-based credit calculations.

#2 Research products
Specify products that meet one or more of the criteria listed in the credit requirements.
Different components or ingredients in an assembled product may contribute
to different credit criteria.
Each product, component, or ingredient that meets several criteria receives
credit for each criterion met.

1J Extended producer responsibility (EPR).

Extended producer responsibility (EPRJ is a waste management strategy
that promotes integrating the life-cycle environmental costs associated with
goods into the market price of the products. EPR is based on the idea that
because producers have the greatest control over product design, they also
have the ability and responsibility to reduce their products' toxicity and waste.
The Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECDJ defines
extended producer responsibility as an environmental policy approach in
which a producer's responsibility for a product is extended to the postconsumer
stage of the product's life cycle. An EPR policy ( 1 J shifts responsibility (physically
and/or economically, fully or partially) upstream toward the producer and away
from municipalities; and (2) creates incentives for producers to take into account
environmental considerations when designing their products.
There are two basic types of EPR programs:
1. EPR claims must be made in accordance to ISO
14021.
2. The manufacturer and/or programs have provided documentation showing
participation in any of the following EPR platforms to contribute to LEED:
• Manufacturer Based Programs:
o A narrative from the manufacturer describing the nature of the
program, where the materials can be collected, and where the
materials go upon collection.
o A state recognized program.

Documento/ LEED Design

• Third-party program:
o A narrative from a manufacturer or third-party entity that includes
language on how the third-party is directly responsible for the take
back of materials. Within this narrative includes:
• Collection facility locations.
• Description of how materials are processed.
• Fate of materials after they are processed.

2) Bio-based materials.
Biobased products are defined by ASTM 06866, but testing (by the manufacturer
or a contracted party) is not required in all cases. Manufacturers use this test
to determine the amount of biobased material in a product. If the percentage
of biobased materials, by weight, in the product are known, testing to this
standard may not be necessary.
Non-wood products must be grown on farms that meet the Sustainable Agriculture
Standard of the Sustainable Agricultural Network (SAN), and adhere to the
guidelines and policies of the Rainforest Alliance-including traceability, chain of
custodyl O and use of seal-and receive pre-approval from the Rainforest Alliance
in order to bear the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal.
Because the number of Rainforest Alliance-certified crops in building materials
is limited, project teams may include products with manufacturer-declared
conformance to the Sustainable Agriculture Standard (except bamboo and non-
wood forest products that could be FSC certified) under the following three
conditions:
The product's manufacturer provides a signed letter on company letterhead
from the raw material supplier attesting that its practices meet the standard.
The letter includes a link to a publicly available document that specifies how
the raw material supplier's practices conform to each paragraph in all 10
sections of the standard and attesting that each "critical criterion" is met.
Both the letter and the detailed documentation are dated within one year
before the date of project registration.

Calculate bio-based content using this formula:

50% X percent by weight of bio-based material in total product X Cost of Material
If the bio-based raw materials meet the Sustainable Agricultural
Networks
Sustainable Agricultural standard use this formula:
100% X percent by weight of bio-based material in total product X Cost of
Material

Documentation for wood and bio-based products:

1. Products with bio-based claims must be legally harvested by exporting and
receiving country.
2. Manufacturers/Programs must provide documentation on the specific product
that includes the type of bio-based raw material used within the product. In
addition, products must have either of the following:

• Confirmation the ASTM 06866 test method was conducted which validates
the percent by weight of bio-based material within the product.
• Product has been certified to the USDA BioPreferred Program and includes
the Voluntary Labeling verification of bio-based content via ASTM 6866
or ISO 16620-2 testing.

3) Wood products
Wood products must be certified by the FSC Forest Stewardship Council or USGBC-
approved equivalent. Products meeting wood products criteria are valued at
100% of their cost for the purposes of credit achievement calculation.

FSC Chain of Custody

Chain-of-Custody (CoC) certification requirements are established by Forest
Stewardship Council Chain of Custody Standard 40-004 v3-0. Every entity that
processes or trades FSC-certified material before it is shipped to the project site must
have FSC CoC certification. On-site installers of FSC-certified products must have
CoC certification only if they modify the products off the project site.
FSC-certified products qualify for credit only when purchased from a vendor with an
FSC chain-of-custody certificate that is current at the time of
sale.
FSC-certified products must be itemized on the vendor's invoice. Their value toward
credit contribution is calculated as one of the following, as determined by the
FSC claim on the invoice provided by the supplier:
Products identified as FSC 100% contribute 100% FSC content.
Products identified as FSC Mix Credit contribute 100% FSC content.
Products identified as FSC Mix [NN]% contribute the FSC content percentage
indicated. For example, a product identified as "FSC Mix 75%" is valued at
75% of the product's cost.
Products identified as FSC Recycled Credit contribute 100% postconsumer
recycled content.
Products identified as FSC Recycled [NN] % contribute the
percentage postconsumer recycled content percentage indicated [N NJ.

Multiple Sustainable Claims and FSC

FSC and recycled content. Some products identified as FSC Mix Credit or FSC Mix
[NN] % also have pre- or postconsumer recycled content, the latter of which is
commonly reported separately by the product manufacturer. In these instances, the
project team must choose whether to classify the product (or some fraction of
the assembly) as FSC certified or as recycled content; the material cannot contribute
to both claims simultaneously. FSC and SAN certified products. Products certified
by both FSC and to the Sustainable Agriculture Standard they may receive credit
for each criterion
Documenting FSC Claims
Project teams must document FSC certification for all wood products that contribute
to credit achievement. The vendor is defined as the company that sells products to

the project contractors and subcontractors who do not modify products off-site.
FSC-certified products qualify for credit only when purchased from a vendor with an
FSC chain-of-custody certificate that is current at the time of sale. The status of a
CoC certification can be verified at info.fsc.org. Each product shipped to
the project site and contributing toward credit must be documented by an invoice
from the CoC certificate holder as follows:
The invoice must have the vendor's CoC certificate code (e.g., RA-COC-
001025, SCS-COC-000345, or SGS-COC-002563). The invoice must itemize
FSC-certified products and specific FSC claims.
The invoice may aggregate the value of products, provided the cost of FSC
products is isolated from other wood products and the vendor's CoC
certificate code is on the invoice.
The invoice must show the entity being invoiced and indicate the delivery is
intended for the LEED project.

4) Materials reuse.
Generally, opportunities to reuse building materials may be limited. Core materials
that may be eligible include salvaged brick, structural timber, railroad ties, stone,
and pavers. When considering the reuse of salvaged materials, confirm that they do
not contain toxic substances, such as lead or asbestos.
Reused materials found on site - Components that are retained either in their
original function or in a new role are eligible for this credit. For reused
materials found on site, the source location distance is zero.
Reused materials found off site - Materials obtained off site qualify as reused
if they were previously used in a building or other application. These
materials may be purchased as salvaged, like any other project material, or
moved from another facility, including facilities used or owned by the LEED
project owner.
Determine the cost of reused/reclaimed material.
The cost of reused or reclaimed materials is either the actual cost paid or the
replacement value, whichever is higher.
The replacement value can be determined by pricing a comparable
material in the local market; exclude labor and shipping. If a project team
receives a discount from a vendor, the replacement value should be the
discounted price, not the list value.
If the actual cost of the reused or salvaged material is below the cost of an
equivalent new item, use the higher value (actual cost) of the new item.
If the cost to reclaim an item found on site is less than the cost of an
equivalent new item, use the cost of the new item ( or replacement cost).

Location valuation factor for salvaged or reused materials:

For reused materials, the source location of extraction or harvest is
the location of the materials before their removal to the project site.
For material taken directly from another building, the source location is the
building. For items purchased from a building materials salvage store
or recycling facility, the source location is the store or facility. In this case,
it is not necessary to track material to the original building.

5) Recycled content.
Recycled content claims for products must conform to the definition in ISO 14021-
1999, Environmental Labels and Declarations, Self-Declared Environmental Claims
(Type II Environmental Labeling).
Reusing materials reclaimed from the same process in which they were
generated does not contribute toward the recycled content of the material.
Putting waste back into the same manufacturing process from which
it came is not considered recycling because it was not diverted from
the waste stream.
Default recycled content for steel products where no recycled content
information is available, assume the recycled content to be 25%
postconsumer. No other material is known to have a similarly consistent
minimum recycled content. Many steel products contain 90% or higher
recycled content if manufactured by the electric arc furnace process, so
it may be beneficial to obtain actual information from the
manufacturer rather than relying on the default value.
To calculate the percentage of recycled-content materials used in
a project, list all recycled-content materials and products and their costs.
For each product, identify the percentage of postconsumer
and/or preconsumer recycled content by weight, and list the recycled
content information source. The information must come from a reliable,
verifiable source, such as the product's manufacturer.
Calculate product recycled content using this formula:
[% Pre Consumer X 50%] + [% Post Consumer X 100%] X Cost of Material
No single product may contribute more than 200% of cost.
All product reports must be valid at the time the product was purchased for
the project.

#3: Calculate compliant products and materials and compile documentation

Calculate compliance and ensure 15% (for 1 point) or 30% (for 2 points) by cost, of
permanently installed products meet at least one of the requirements listed, using equation
2 below:

Criteria I valuation factor= multiplier assigned to each sourcing criterion:
o Bio-based products meeting basic criteria, value 0.5, by cost; bio-based
products meeting Sustainable Agriculture Standard, value 1.0 by cost.
o Wood products certified to FSC standards, value 1 .0 by cost
o Reused materials, value 2.0 by cost
o Recycled content:
• Postconsumer recycled materials, value 1.0 by cost
• Pre-consumer recycled materials, value 0.5 by cost
• Recycled content is the sum of postconsumer recycled content
plus one-half the pre-consumer recycled content, based on weight.
The recycled fraction of the assembly is then multiplied by the
cost of assembly to determine the recycled content value.
o Location valuation factor: multiplier for extraction, manufacture and
purchase location is 200%
o Extended Producer Responsibility is valued at 50%; valuation factor is 0.5.

For a product to qualify for the location valuation factor, it must meet two
conditions: all extraction, manufacture, and purchase (including distribution) of the
product and its materials must occur within the 160 km radius. The distance must be
measured as the crow flies, not by actual travel distance. The point of purchase
is considered the location of the purchase transaction. For on line or other transactions
that do not occur in person, the point of purchase is considered the location of
product distribution.

#4 Track purchases throughout construction

During construction, coordinate a review of the construction submittals to ensure that
selected products meet credit requirements. It is suggested that documentation for
prospective products is made available to the LEED consultant for credit compliance
assessment before purchase.
Continually track substitutions and change orders during buy-out and installation to
ensure that replacement products meet the credit requirements. Any
product substitutions should be carefully reviewed by the project team for
compliance.
Check in periodically with team members (particularly owner, LEED consultant,
architects, interior designers, contractors, subcontractors, and suppliers) to verify
progress toward credit achievement and address any gaps in credit compliance.
