Gross Scope 1 GHG emissions from other sources 548 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 294 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported electricity 7,782.60 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 7,178 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Gross Scope 2 GHG emissions from imported thermal energy 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Total 13,813.90 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 11,994 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

Carbon sinks

Figures needed to determine net carbon sinks:
Performance year Baseline year
Third-party verified carbon offsets purchased 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Institution-catalyzed carbon offsets generated 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Carbon storage from on-site composting 12.90 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 107 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Carbon storage from non-additional sequestration 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Carbon sold or transferred 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 0 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent
Net carbon sinks 12.90 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 107 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

If total performance year carbon sinks are greater than zero, provide:

A brief description of the carbon sinks, including vendor, project source, verification program and contract timeframes (as applicable):
The campus "composts" through an on campus digester sourced from biohitech.

Adjusted net GHG emissions

Adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions:
Performance year Baseline year
Adjusted net GHG emissions 13,801.00 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 11,887 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

Performance and baseline periods

Start and end dates of the performance year and baseline year (or three-year periods):
Performance year Baseline year
Start date July 1, 2018 July 1, 2010
End date June 30, 2019 June 30, 2011

A brief description of when and why the GHG emissions baseline was adopted:
The baseline year was adopted as the first year that a completed GHG inventory was performed in accordance with ACUPCC requirements, and the year we were required to make our first inventory submittal under the ACUPCC program.

Part 1. Reduction in GHG emissions per person

Weighted campus users

Figures needed to determine “Weighted Campus Users”:
Performance year Baseline year
Number of students resident on-site 1,320 1,177
Number of employees resident on-site 67 77
Number of other individuals resident on-site 134 154
Total full-time equivalent student enrollment 1,376 1,177
Full-time equivalent of employees 602 614
Full-time equivalent of students enrolled exclusively in distance education 0 0
Weighted Campus Users 1,964.25 1,810.75

Metrics used in scoring for Part 1

Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user:
Performance year Baseline year
Adjusted net Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user 7.03 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent 6.56 Metric tons of CO2 equivalent

Percentage reduction in adjusted net Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions per weighted campus user from baseline:
0

Part 2. GHG emissions per unit of floor area
