Optional Fields
No special water reduction project were conducted during this period.
A brief description of the institution's water recovery and reuse initiatives:
Most of the site landscaping consist of grass and forest, and there are no irrigation systems in place. Cooling tower water treatment is optimized to reduce water consumption.
A brief description of the institution's initiatives to replace plumbing fixtures, fittings, appliances, equipment, and systems with water-efficient alternatives:
No recent projects were conducted, most faucets are already high-efficiency. There are no invoicing for potable water in Montréal - property owner pays a water tax based on property value rather than water consumption. It is thereof impossible to conduct water-saving projects before the end of life of equipment such as toilets or faucets.
