UCI Pilot Proposal • LEED Volume Build Program as framework • Establish baseline of prototype credits in initial project submittal (audit-level documentation) • UCI Palo Verde Student Apartments as pilot project • Two Volume Submittal: • Volume 1 – Baseline of “Prototype” Credits • Volume 2 – Project-specific Credits
Project Status • Proposal submitted through LEED Volume Build (2.1) • USGBC Preliminary Review completed • USGBC comments and advice on supplemental documentation • Ongoing Consultation • Final submittal for scoring of baseline and project certification pending
