Optional Fields

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:

---

A brief description of the institution's water recovery and reuse initiatives:

Fleming's Haliburton Campus harvests rainwater, which is used for toilet flushing. The Kawartha Trades and Technology Centre has a rainwater catchment system used for building operations. Rainwater catchment systems are also used for irrigation in the community garden and pollinator garden. Our Center for Advanced Water and Wastewater Treatment Center at our Frost Campus uses constructed wetlands to treat the greywater from the washrooms in the Environmental Technology Wing.

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):
