Total water use (potable and non-potable combined):
Performance Year | Baseline Year | |
Total water use | --- | 88,179,476 Gallons |
Potable water use:
Performance Year | Baseline Year | |
Potable water use | 84,000,400 Gallons | 88,179,476 Gallons |
Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or three-year periods):
Start Date | End Date | |
Performance Year | July 1, 2017 | June 30, 2018 |
Baseline Year | July 1, 2013 | June 30, 2014 |
A brief description of when and why the water use baseline was adopted:
Water use baseline year 2013-2014 was chosen to coincide with the Cal State East Bay's initial Greenhouse Gas Inventory.

A brief description of the institution's water-related behavior change initiatives, e.g. initiatives to shift individual attitudes and practices such as signage and competitions:
Cal State East Bay stopped watering 12 turf areas on campus. These areas have signage indicating the campus is saving water by stopping irrigation. Additional signage to promote water conservation is posted in restrooms throughout campus.
A brief description of the institution's water recovery and reuse initiatives:
NA
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to replace plumbing fixtures, fittings, appliances, equipment, and systems with water-efficient alternatives (e.g. building retrofits):
Replacing bathroom fixtures that meet Water Sense criteria including low-flow aerator heads.

Additional documentation to support the submission:
Weighted Campus User in performance year for OP 22 differs from IC 3, because IC 3 indicates the current year as the performance year (AY18/19) and OP 22 indicates performance year for AY17/18 in alignment with most current dataset available when this credit criteria was completed.
