Is there a lady or gentleman out there that knows the correct reference standard for v4? Perhaps SCAQMD #1168 and #1113 only?

(looks like it isn't recognizing the hyperlink in it's entirety ... better copy and paste) [Colin - from page 120 of this document for US based projects: General emissions evaluation. Building products must be tested and determined compliant in accordance with California Department of Public Health (CDPH) Standard Method v1.1 – 2010, using the applicable exposure scenario. The default scenario is the private office scenario. The manufacturer’s or third - party certification must state the exposure scenario used to determine compliance. Claims of compliance for wet-applied products must state the amount applied in mass per surface area.] Guest (Unregistered Guest) Unregistered guest Posted on Thursday, October 29, 2015 - 11:25 am:    Correction: Looks like this is the current version ... starting on pg 118. http://www.usgbc.org/sites/default/files/LEED%20v4%20BDC_10.01.15_current_0.pdf Wayne Yancey Senior Member Username: wayne_yancey Post Number: 765 Registered: 01-2008 Posted on Thursday, October 29, 2015 - 11:29 am:    Thanks, Much appreciated.

This makes it easy to set the requirement if you are a MS subscriber.
