A brief description of the composting or mulching program:
Beginning on July 1, 2010 the Saint Louis University Grounds Department implemented a composting and mulching practice which includes all landscaping waste including but not limited to grass, leaves, and other landscape related debris. This practice has led to an 85% reduction in disposal and landfill fees over the previous fiscal year. All debris generated from the ground operation is kept on site, composted, and re-used throughout the campus areas.
