[All LEED-AP-ID+C Questions]

Which of the following statements is correct when defining the project boundary?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The LEED project boundary is defined to include all contiguous land associated with the project and supports its typical operations.This encompasses land altered due to construction and features primarily used by the project's occupants, such as parking, sidewalks, and landscaping1. Therefore, the correct statement when defining the project boundary is option D, which aligns with the LEED guidelines that require the inclusion of contiguous land altered as a result of construction within the project boundary.

Not sure about including all contiguous land, seems excessive.

I thought the project boundary had to include all contiguous land affected by the project, which makes me lean towards D as well.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I feel like the gross floor area requirement is important, but I can't recall the exact number.

Ah, the contiguous land that's altered during construction - that makes sense to me. I think that's the best answer based on the information provided.

The gross floor area requirement is interesting, but I'm not sure if that's the key factor in defining the project boundary. I'll keep that in mind as I consider the other options.

Hmm, I don't think the LEED project can only include one building. That doesn't sound correct. I'll mark that one as unlikely.

I'm not sure about the project boundary definition, but I'll read through the options carefully and try to eliminate the ones that don't seem right.

Option D is the way to go. I mean, you can't just ignore the surrounding land that's impacted by your construction, can you? That would be like trying to build a house and pretending the yard doesn't exist.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. I think C makes the most sense - the project should have a minimum size of 1,000 sq ft. Anything smaller doesn't seem like a real LEED project to me.
