Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
-The waste numbers reported include waste data from off-campus housing, in addition to data from all buildings that are connected to the main campus utility systems, are fed power from Elm Drive and Charlton Street substations, and those that house significant campus energy-consuming programs that were once fed by these systems but have been moved off the main campus since 1990, including 701 Carnegie Center.
-Baseline population numbers reflect fiscal year 2006 and, for the performance year, fiscal year 2011. The number of on-campus residents does not include those living in University housing off-campus. Those living in the Graduate College are included as that building is connected to the main campus utility systems. The number of employees excludes Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) staff and casual hourly temps.
