Suggested Answer: B

Detailed

To gain formal pre-approval for a strategy previously awarded as an Innovation credit, the project team must submit a Credit Interpretation Request (CIR) to the Green Business Certification Inc.

Hey, at least they didn't ask about the impact of massing and orientation on 'Dude, Where's My Car?' compliance. That would really throw me for a loop.

Honestly, I'm just hoping the answer isn't 'All of the Above'. That would be too easy, and the LEED exam is all about tripping you up!

I'm leaning towards Fundamental Commissioning and Verification. The way the building is designed can impact how well the systems are commissioned and verified to be working properly.

Oh, this one's easy - it's gotta be Construction Activity Pollution Prevention. The site orientation and massing can determine how much dust and debris gets kicked up during construction.

I'm going with Minimum Indoor Air Quality Performance. The way the building is designed can impact things like natural ventilation and air circulation, which are crucial for indoor air quality.

I think it also plays a role in minimum energy performance, since the orientation can impact natural lighting and heating.

Hmm, I think it's gotta be Minimum Energy Performance. The massing and orientation of the site can really affect how much energy the building needs to keep its occupants comfortable.

I believe it also affects Construction Activity Pollution Prevention, as the orientation can impact how construction activities affect the environment.
