USGBC LEED Accredited Professional Operations and Maintenance Sample Questions:

01. A corporate campus in a snow-belt region clears its lots and walks through a long winter. Groundskeepers spread deicer generously ahead of each storm so that a second pass is rarely needed, and plowed snow is pushed to the low corner of the lot beside a planted swale. Over several winters the shrubs nearest that corner have died back, and soil samples from the corner come back salty.
Which change to the winter program most directly addresses what the meltwater is carrying?
a) Move the snow pile onto paved ground that drains to the storm inlet and well away from the planting bed.
b) Clear mechanically first, then meter the deicer to what conditions on the pavement actually require.
c) Switch from deicer to sand, which gives traction on the ice without dissolving into the meltwater at all.
d) Plow to bare pavement first, then keep spreading deicer across the whole lot as before.
 
02. A grocery-anchored retail center power-washes its loading dock and the pavement outside the entrances on a regular cycle. The dock apron carries spilled grease, tire rubber and the residue of pallet handling, and every yard drain on that apron discharges to the storm system without treatment.
How should the operations team change the washdown routine?
a) Wash with potable water at higher pressure and no detergent, so that only water reaches the drain.
b) Schedule washdowns immediately before forecast rain, so the rinse leaves the apron with the storm water.
c) Sweep and absorb the residue first, then contain the wash water and route it to the sanitary sewer with the authority's approval.
d) Move washdowns to a weekend, when the apron is empty, with the pavement given time to dry before trading resumes.
 
03. An office campus in an arid region irrigates its planted areas from an automatic controller installed when the grounds were last renovated. The controller has repeated the same watering times since it was commissioned, and the grounds crew adjusts it only when a zone visibly browns.
Why does this arrangement waste water?
a) Plant demand shifts with the weather, while a fixed clock schedule does not.
b) A single controller cannot serve zones of differing plant types and soil conditions without separate valves.
c) Automatic controllers deliver more water per minute than the grounds crew would apply by hand.
d) The controller applies water at night, when cool air keeps it from reaching the root zone.
 
04. A civic building in a cold northern city stands on a street where the utility has just extended a reclaimed-water main. The operations team wants to move toilet flushing and the grounds irrigation onto the reclaimed supply, keeping the potable service for the kitchen and for the fixtures occupants drink from.
What does making that switch require of the building?
a) A move to a different rating system, because switching a supply counts as construction work.
b) Nothing beyond a meter on the new service, because the utility remains responsible for what it delivers.
c) A reclaimed-water system kept physically separate from the potable piping and marked non-potable, because the two utility supplies must never be joined inside the building.
d) Additional on-site treatment, because reclaimed water arrives below the quality that plumbing fixtures require.
 
05. A distribution warehouse runs a truck-wash bay through every shift and keeps a planted strip along its street frontage. The municipality has placed the district under a standing outdoor-watering restriction, which the site observes; the frontage is now watered only on the days the ordinance allows.
The operating budget will fund one water measure this year: converting the frontage to drip with a soil-moisture sensor, or a reclaim skid that filters and reuses the wash-bay rinse water. Which measure does the restriction make the stronger choice, and on what grounds?
a) The drip conversion, because applying water at the root zone is the most efficient irrigation method available to the site.
b) The reclaim skid, because the restriction has already taken most of the outdoor saving the site could still claim.
c) The drip conversion, because a restriction makes efficient use of the permitted days more valuable.
d) The reclaim skid, because process water sits outside the restriction and beyond municipal oversight.
 
06. A hospital's materials manager reviews the hauler's reports for the mixed recycling collected from its administrative wings. Several loads over recent months were rejected at the sorting facility and sent to landfill.
The hauler's notes cite food residue and liquid poured into the containers near a staff break room, together with plastic film the facility cannot process.
What does this pattern tell the manager about the building's waste performance?
a) The correctly sorted material in those loads was landfilled with the contaminants
b) Occupants are generating recyclable material faster than the collection points and corridor stations in those wings can hold
c) Loads rejected at the facility should be left out of the building's discard tally for the period
d) The sorting facility is applying an acceptance standard stricter than the hauler's contract and the building's own policy require
 
07. A warehouse and distribution center generates spent fluorescent lamps, lead-acid forklift batteries and used lubricating oil from its routine maintenance work. Alongside these, the dock crew recycles the paper, cardboard and shrink wrap that come off inbound pallets.
How does the first group of materials differ from the building's ordinary recycling streams?
a) They must be neutralized or crushed on site before anything is allowed to leave the building
b) They are regulated waste, kept segregated from the ordinary streams and consigned to a permitted handler under a record trail of their own
c) They may enter the mixed recycling once their containers have been drained and rinsed
d) They are the contractor's waste, removed from the building's tracking as soon as it is collected
 
08. A corporate campus is consolidating its staff from two floors onto one. Several hundred task chairs, desks and filing units come out over a single weekend, and the facilities team's own inspection finds most of them sound and still serviceable.
The waste contractor's bulky collection is booked and will report the whole consignment as recycled rather than landfilled. A used-furniture dealer serving the region has offered to take whatever it can resell, leaving the rest.
Which handling of the retired furniture best serves the campus waste program?
a) Route every serviceable piece to reuse, leaving the contractor only what is broken beyond repair
b) Send the whole consignment on the booked collection and record its full weight as diverted from landfill
c) Add a design-for-disassembly requirement to the next furniture purchase, then release this consignment as already booked
d) Confirm what the recycler recovers from bulky office furniture before the collection proceeds
 
09. A rural school district buys classroom paper and cleaning supplies for all of its campuses. Two suppliers are bidding for the ongoing order. One offers products with a higher recovered content, delivered on shrink-wrapped pallets. The other offers products with less recovered content and collects its own returnable crates on each delivery.
The district's hauler takes no film plastic, and none of the campuses has room to accumulate it for a distant processor.
Which bid better serves the district's purchasing and waste goals?
a) The higher recovered-content supplier, because the film could be baled at a central campus, then hauled to a processor whenever the accumulated volume justified the trip
b) Neither, until the district measures what each supplier's packaging adds to its discard stream
c) The higher recovered-content supplier, since recovered content is the attribute an environmental purchasing policy weighs most heavily
d) The returnable-crate supplier, because the packaging on the other bid has no recovery route in this region, leaving it for landfill at every campus
 
10. A university residence hall is metered separately from the rest of the campus. Consumption per occupied bed has climbed since a piping repair last summer, while occupancy, fixtures and the shower schedule are unchanged.
Residents on the upper floors say they now run the shower for a long stretch before the water turns warm. Walking the plant, the operations team finds the hot-water return line valved shut since that repair and never reopened.
Which change most directly ends the water this building is now sending to drain?
a) Install a second recirculation loop dedicated to the upper-floor branches and their showers
b) Fit lower-flow showerheads on the upper floors, where the residents report the longest wait for warm water
c) Reopen the hot-water return line and restore circulation to the upper-floor branches
d) Insulate the hot-water risers against heat lost between draws
