Optional Fields
A team of gardeners and landscaping personnel from our outsourced personnel reports daily to our Consultant for landscaping. Even during lockdowns, the team sees to it the plants are watered accordingly. We have made this an essential part of our daily operations.
A brief description of the institution's approach to hydrology and water use:
As of this writing, we are using our own water tanks and reservoir for this purpose. We currently have five (3) elevated tanks and one (1) subterranean tank which is all using submersible pumps. However, our Sewage Treatment Plant project is underway together with water recycling and rainwater catchment.
A brief description of the institution's approach to landscape materials management and waste minimization:
We have been utilizing horse manure as fertilizer.
A brief description of the institution's approach to energy-efficient landscape design:
We need not use electric booster pumps to water plants. The force of gravity alone has provided enough water pressure for our water lines.
A brief description of other sustainable landscape management practices employed by the institution:
All subcontractors on campus are required not to damage any plant or foliage including grass areas. If it is unavoidable, then part of their contract is to restore any damaged plant or grass area. Old trees like acacia and Philippine native trees are not allowed to be cut down and any piping works are rerouted accordingly. Corresponding clearances to the Department of Environmental & Natural Resources (DENR)are secured before any trees cut down.
