Does the institution's physical campus plan include sustainability at a high level?:
A brief description of how the physical campus plan or amendment includes sustainability:
Two of the main planning goals of the development of the Facilities Master Plan (FMP) included linking the FMP to the University Climate Action Plan (CAP) and promoting 21st century sustainability concepts. The FMP reinforces the CAP by increasing building and operational efficiencies and converting to renewable, non-fossil fuel energy where feasible. The FMP notes that future building renovations should include: insulating building envelopes and reducing infiltration; replacing windows with high “R”
units; providing energy recover ventilating equipment (ERU’s) and providing
energy-efficient systems for lighting, HVAC and energy management. The FMP also suggested analysis of on-site renewable energy sources for heating and cooling
(geothermal, photovoltaic, solar and biomass) specifically focused on geothermal on the quad for a new residence hall.
