A school project is near rural farmland. The project site was previously a retail location.
The site area is large and equals 500,000SF while the building footprint will only be
50,000 SF. A majority of the area will be restored with native and adaptive plants. Water
runoff methods will include cisterns, vegetated swales, and open grid paving. Open grid
paving takes up 30,000 SF. What is the minimum amount of land that could be restored to
earn sustainable site credit, Site Development - Protect and Restore Habitat to earn an
exemplary performance point?
A: 135,000 SF
B: 450,000 SF
C: 420,000 SF
D: 337,500 SF

参考答案: D

本题解释:
Notes:
To earn exemplary performance point for SS Credit 5.1 the project must restore 75% of
the site excluding the building footprint or 30% of the site including the building footprint,
whichever is greater.
(500,000SF - 50,000) *.75 = 337,500
500,000 * 0.3 = 150,000
The minimum amount the project can restore to earn exemplary performance is 337,500.
