Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

All buildings to be LEED certified

The Illinois Environmental Barriers Act does not require LEED certification for all buildings. LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) is a voluntary green building certification program, not a requirement of this specific Illinois legislation. The Act focuses solely on accessibility for people with disabilities, not environmental or sustainability standards that LEED addresses.

B

Accessibility features in public buildings

Correct Answer
C

Energy efficiency standards

Energy efficiency standards are typically addressed through building codes, energy acts, or green building programs, not specifically through the Illinois Environmental Barriers Act.

D

Water conservation measures

Water conservation measures are governed by different regulations, such as plumbing codes or environmental protection statutes, not the Environmental Barriers Act.

Why is this correct?

The Illinois Environmental Barriers Act specifically requires accessibility features for persons with disabilities in public buildings and places of accommodation. This focus on accessibility rather than environmental sustainability makes it distinct from other regulations.
