MRc7: Certified Wood

The intent of this credit is to encourage the use of wood that is harvested in a renewable manner.  The US Green Building Council wants to reward those projects which use wood that promotes environmentally responsible forest management.

You can achieve this credit if 50% of your wood based products are FSC certified (Forest Stewardship Council).  You are eligible for an exemplary performance point if you bump this up to 95%.

This is a construction submittal to prove that you have the required materials in place as planned.
