Revision history [back]

I am working on a project that is LEED version 3 BD+C, and I got the review comment from the LEED reviewer for EAp2 that for the data center space the baseline lighting power density is required to be 0.8 because it's an active storage space, where I had 1.5 w/sf for a mech/elect space. The reviewer did not give a source for the requirement. Does anyone know of an official reference that gives this requirement? I don't personally think that active storage is an appropriate choice for the space, and I am considering keeping my original LPD if there's no official documentation requiring the active storage LPD.
