This credit was marked as Not Pursuing so Reporting Fields will not be displayed.

Hugh Briggs of physical plant noted that Lakehead's Thunder Bay campus makes use of some landscape features to handle rain water, but institution has not formally adopted a rainwater management plan. Lakehead is fortunate to have an immense amount of green space and a river which runs through campus. The result is that rain water management is not typically a problem. Additionally Briggs noted that there is currently no rain water re-use on campus besides the community gardeners who have a rain barrel. The amount of water captured by the gardeners is not measured.
