Which of the following actions should the building manager take to address under-ventilated commercial spaces in compliance with LEED prerequisites?

• A. Measure delivered outdoor air and evaluate against calculated needs
• B. Immediately replace HVAC equipment to boost ventilation rates
• C. Include in the operations plan an increase in preventive maintenance
