LEED Gold
LEED Overview
What is LEEDS?
USGBC is a community of
leaders working to transform the
way buildings and communities
are designed, built, and
operated.
We envision an environmentally
responsible, healthy, and
prosperous environment.
What is
Scores are tallied for
the LEED different aspects of
System? efficiency and design in
appropriate categories.
LEED
Ratings
Green Buildings
worldwide are certified
with a voluntary,
consensus-based
rating system.
USGBC has four
levels of LEED.

Sustainable Sites
~1.7 million acres developed each year
Sustainable Sites
14 points possible
SS Prerequisite 1
Construction Activity Pollution Prevention
Intent:
Reduce Pollution from construction activities by
controlling soil erosion, waterway sedimentation and
airborne dust generation.
SS # 1
Site Selection
Intent:
Avoid development of inappropriate sites and reduce
the environmental impact from the location of a
building on a site.
Prime Farmland
Previously undeveloped
within 50’ of water body
Former parkland
SS # 2
Development Density and
Community Connectivity
Intent:
Channel development to urban areas with existing
infrastructure, protect greenfields and preserve habitat
and natural resources.
SS # 3
Brownfield Redevelopment
Intent:
Rehabilitate damaged sites where development is
complicated by environmental contamination, reducing
pressure on undeveloped land.
Intent:
Reduce Pollution and land development impacts from
automobile use.
Intent:
Reduce Pollution and land development impacts from
automobile use.
Residential:
Covered bicycle
storage for 15%
of occupants
The Jordan Institute
Intent:
Reduce Pollution and land development impacts from
automobile use.
Intent:
Reduce Pollution and land development impacts from
automobile use.
Option 3 – Residential:
Don’t exceed zoning req.
AND facilitate shared vehicle
usage such as: carpool drop-
off, vanpool parking, car
sharing, ride boards, shuttle
services
Option 4: Provide
no new parking
The Jordan Institute
Intent:
Conserve existing natural areas and restore damaged
areas to provide habitat and promote bio-diversity.
Previously Developed:
Restore min of 50% of site
with native or adapted
vegetation
Greenfield Sites:
40’ from building perimeter
10’ from walkways, parking, utilities less
than 12” diameter
15’ beyond roadway curbs, main utility
trenches
25’ beyond constructed permeable
surfaces
The Jordan Institute
Intent:
Provide a high ratio of open space to development
footprint to promote biodiversity.
Intent:
Limit disruption of natural water hydrology by reducing
impervious cover , increasing on-site infiltration,
reducing or eliminating pollution from stormwater
runoff, and eliminating contaminants.
Intent:
Intent:
Reduce heat islands (thermal gradient differences
between developed and undeveloped areas) to
minimize impact on microclimate and human wildlife
habitat.
Option 1: Shade (with 5 years) / Reflective
paving (SRI 29 min) / Open-grid paving for
50% of hardscape
Intent:
Reduce heat islands (thermal gradient differences
between developed and undeveloped areas) to
minimize impact on microclimate and human wildlife
habitat.
Option 3 = combination
Option 1: Solar reflectance Index
of Option 1 and 2
(SRI) of 78 for flat roofs / 29 for
pitched roofs for min. of 75% of roof
area.
The Jordan Institute
Intent:
Minimize light trespass from the building and site,
reduce sky-glow to increase night sky access, improve
nighttime visibility through glare reduction, and reduce
development impact on nocturnal environments.
Interior Lighting
Option 1
Option 2
The Jordan Institute
Exterior Lighting
Classify Project in a
IESNA RP-33 zone:
LZ1 = Park and Rural
LZ2 = Residential
LZ3 = Comm / Ind / Res
