How many points can a project earn for the existing Infrastructure credit if it is within 1/4 mile of existing water service lines?

A project can earn 1 point for the existing Infrastructure credit if it is within 1/4 mile of existing water service lines. This credit is intended to encourage the use of existing infrastructure to reduce environmental impacts and promote sustainable development. By being in close proximity to existing water service lines, a project reduces the need for extensive new infrastructure, which can save resources and minimize disruption to the surrounding area. This approach aligns with overall LEED goals of sustainability and efficient resource use.

The other options do not reflect the guidelines for this credit correctly, as only one point is specifically allocated for projects that meet the criteria of being close to existing water service lines.
