What is Regional Priority and how many points can it contribute?

• A. Credits addressing local environmental priorities; can add up to 2 RP credits to a project score.
• B. Credits addressing local environmental priorities; can add up to 4 RP credits to a project score.
• C. Credits addressing regional signage; can add up to 2 RP credits.
• D. Credits related to ride-sharing; can add up to 3 RP credits.

Answer: (B)

Regional Priority focuses on local environmental priorities identified for the project region, encouraging teams to tackle issues most relevant to where the project sits. Credits labeled as Regional Priority address these regional concerns, and each RP credit earned adds one point toward the project’s total, with a maximum of four RP credits contributing to the score. So the correct understanding is that RP credits come from region-specific priorities and can contribute up to four points.

Regional Priority is not about regional signage or ride-sharing; those ideas don’t apply to RP credits. Also, the limit isn’t two or three points—the cap is four.
