LEED Green Associate (LEED GA) — Question 18

What is the current standard LEED uses to determine the baseline for indoor water savings?

Answer options

• A. Energy Policy Act (EPACT) of 1992, 2005
• B. ANSI 17024
• C. The local standard in which the project is located
• D. The Energy Savings and Industrial Competitiveness Act of 2013

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A, as the Energy Policy Act (EPACT) of 1992 and its 2005 amendments provide the baseline for measuring indoor water savings. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they either refer to different standards or legislation that do not specifically address the baseline for indoor water savings in the LEED context.
