If a Green rater identifies a missing resource in the documentation for Location and Linkages credit, what should be done?

When a Green rater identifies a missing resource in the documentation for the Location and Linkages credit, submitting a Credit Interpretation Request (CIR) for the unlisted resource is the recommended action. A CIR is a formal request for clarification regarding the application of LEED rating system requirements. In this context, a CIR allows for the exploration of specific circumstances surrounding the missing resource, ensuring that the project's intent and requirements are met accurately. This process enhances the project's compliance with LEED standards by providing a clear, documented pathway for addressing ambiguities or omissions related to the credit.

The remaining choices do not adequately address the issue; for instance, ignoring feedback could result in failing to meet LEED requirements or missing out on potential resources that could support the project's eligibility for credit. Adjusting the documentation without proper clarification may not resolve the underlying issue, and could lead to further discrepancies. Additionally, requesting clarification from the rater does not provide a formalized way to ensure that all parties are on the same page regarding the specifics of the missing resource, and would not necessarily lead to a resolution recognized by the LEED certification process. Thus, submitting a CIR is the most effective and appropriate course of action to ensure completeness and compliance in the LEED documentation process.
