LEED for Existing Buildings Out for Comments

At the beginning of March 2004, the U.S. Green Building Council released a draft of the LEED

® for Existing Buildings (LEED-EB) Rating System for review by Council members during a 30-day comment period. LEED-EB is designed to certify the ongoing operations and maintenance of facilities, including upgrades to building systems. It is not intended to encompass major renovations, which are the purview of LEED for New Construction (LEED-NC). After the comment period a final draft will be prepared for member ballot, which the Council hopes will be approved in time to become the second LEED rating system during the summer.
