During a project review meeting, a member of the facility management team states that asbestos containing materials (ACMs) may be present within the project boundary.
What strategy should the project team follow to evaluate this issue?

  1. Notify any building occupants about the risk of ACMs
  2. Create an asbestos action plan to remediate the ACMs and schedule ongoing inspections
  3. Obtain a letter from the building owner affirming there are no known ACMs in the project boundary
  4. Hire a qualified inspector to investigate the project boundary and space to determine whether ACMs are present

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

The best strategy to evaluate the issue of ACMs is to hire a qualified inspector to investigate the project boundary and space to determine whether ACMs are present. This is in accordance with Part 2 of Feature 11, which requires an on-site investigation of the space conducted by a certified risk assessor or inspector technician to identify any lead-based or asbestos hazards. If any hazards are found, the project must follow the work practice standards and occupant protection plan for conducting lead-based or asbestos abatement activities.

The facility manager has implemented ultraviolet air treatment. According to WELL requirements, which step should the WELL AP take regarding UV system maintenance and inspection?

  1. Conduct an energy audit of the HVAC system
  2. Review whether existing ventilation systems have been tested and balanced
  3. Take pictures of the cooling coils being irradiated and submit them through the WELL digital platform
  4. Find evidence that required components have been replaced or maintained according to manufacturer's recommendation

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Feature X08 requires projects to implement air treatment systems that reduce the concentration of contaminants in the air. Ultraviolet air treatment is one of the options that can be used to meet this feature. However, the project must also provide evidence that the required components of the UV system, such as lamps, ballasts, and filters, have been replaced or maintained according to the manufacturer's recommendation. This ensures that the UV system is functioning properly and effectively. The other options are not directly related to the UV system maintenance and inspection.

What is a key factor in promoting proper hydration?

  1. Verify 100% of all coffee dispensers are linked to clean drinking water
  2. Ensure at least 50% of water fountains report the number of plastic bottles saved
  3. Communicate about the importance of drinking 1 gal (3.79 l) of water every day
  4. Provide at least one drinking water dispenser within 100 ft. (30 m) of regularly occupied space

Answer(s): D

This requirement ensures that drinking water is easily accessible and convenient for occupants, which encourages them to drink more water and stay hydrated. Hydration is essential for maintaining health, well-being, and productivity.

This requirement ensures that building occupants have convenient access to public transportation, reducing reliance on personal vehicles and supporting sustainable and healthy commuting options.



Please click on the Project Scenario B button to review the project scenario and answer the following question.
BAY TOWERS BY BAYLEAF - SEATTLE, UNITED STATES - PROJECT SCENARIO B. Bay Towers by Bayleaf is a 20-floor commercial building overlooking Elliot Bay in Seattle, United States. The building enjoys abundant natural light through floor to ceiling windows which take in Elliot Bay city views. Although located behind a major highway (four-lanes of traffic), there is a pedestrian bridge which connects their ground floor reception to the riverfront park on the other side of the highway.
The building is owned and operated by Bayleaf Inc., a real-estate organization. The building is leased at a 70% occupancy rate by a range of tenants, including those in finance, technology and healthcare. The total expected occupancy of the building is 1,000 people.

Bay Towers is mechanically ventilated and currently has MERV 11 filters. As the building owner, Bayleaf provides HVAC fit-out for tenant spaces, but tenants complete the interior walls and supply the finishes and furniture themselves.
While no food is provided by Bayleaf, some individual tenants do have pantries where they provide their own snacks and beverages for their own employees.

Bayleaf manages the building and operates the ground floor which includes the reception, building management office, meeting rooms, as well as the elevator banks on each floor and the rooftop. Meeting rooms are common amenities that are able to be booked by the tenants. Bayleaf has two employees that work at desks onsite, a receptionist at the front desk and a property manager in the building management office.

PROJECT SCOPE & GOALS

Bayleaf has enrolled Bay Towers for WELL Core Certification to attract and retain high-quality tenants and address growing tenant demand for well-being facilities.

As part of the WELL Core Certification scope, Bayleaf intends to renovate their ground floor and are open to leveraging some of this space to include health and well-being programming.

The scope of renovation will also include upgrades to the base building, such as staircases, end-of- trip facilities and the air filtration system. The rooftop will also be converted into a public green space for tenants to use for recreation. Tables, chairs and barbeque facilities will be added, as well as several gardens, including edible plots and lawn areas.

Bayleaf is hoping their WELL Core Certification will provide some initial feature compliance for tenants wishing to also pursue WELL Certification for their spaces.

  1. Zero
  2. One
  3. Two
  4. 90

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Based on the information provided, the most relevant WELL feature to consider for Bay Towers by Bayleaf, given its location and amenities, is Feature M02: Nature and Place. This feature focuses on supporting occupant well-being by integrating the natural environment throughout the project and celebrating the project's unique identity, which aligns with the building's connection to Elliot Bay and the riverfront park via a pedestrian bridge. However, without explicit details on the implementation of nature throughout the project or specific design strategies, it's challenging to confirm compliance with this feature fully. Therefore, a conservative estimate would be that the project could potentially earn at least one point from this feature, assuming some level of nature integration and celebration of the unique location is achieved in the renovation and operation plans.

How can this project earn points from a feature in the Nourishment concept?

  1. Providing picnic tables with seating for 250 people on the roof deck
  2. Including gardening supplies along with 1000 ft2 (93 m2) of raised beds in the rooftop garden
  3. Requiring tenants not to stock beverages that contain more than 25 g of sugar per container or serving in their pantries
  4. Providing tenants with dishes less than 10 inches (25 cm) in diameter and bowls/cups less than 16 oz (473 mL) in capacity

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The project can earn points from the Nourishment feature N01: Fruits and Vegetables, by including gardening supplies along with 1000 ft2 (93 m2) of raised beds in the rooftop garden. This would meet the requirement of providing at least 0.5 ft2 (0.05 m2) of edible garden space per regular building occupant, and also promote the consumption of fruits and vegetables by making them easily accessible.


Reference:

N01: Fruits and Vegetables

For a project to earn points under the Nourishment concept, particularly with regards to responsible food sourcing or promotion of healthy eating, including gardening supplies and dedicated space for raised beds on the rooftop garden can contribute towards this goal. This approach aligns with features like N01 Fruits and Vegetables, which emphasizes the availability and accessibility of fruits and vegetables. By providing space and resources for gardening, the project supports the consumption of fresh produce, potentially meeting the intent of nourishment-related features.
