The standard aligns with ma- terials and resource credits for LEED v.4 and Living Building Challenge projects. It applies to all processors of natural stone, from quarry operators to final stone fabricators.
“The stone industry is dedi- cated to aligning with the con- tinually evolving marketplace,” says Pointer. “As further changes come, we’ll continue our efforts to respond.”

In 2003, the Natural Stone Council (NSC), a not-for-profit organization, was formed to unite a diverse industry of natural stone producers to actively promote the attributes of natural stone in com- mercial, residential, government, institutional, educational and all types of applications interior and exterior, and to proactively posi- tion natural stone as the premier construction material. The NSC is comprised of organizations repre- senting every type of dimensional stone quarried and fabricated in the United States.
