At this point we do not have a policy in place, but we are using retention ponds, rain gardens, and one rain harvesting system. Our goal is minimize the rainwater runoff from the site and try to hold as long as possible. This is a major consideration on all future projects as well as improving existing areas on our Campus. We are currently working with the Civil Engineering Department for the University developing a campus wide storm water study. To determine our problem areas and working on designs for a solution to the problem.
