1 Design Principles To create unity of intent between the carbon and water neutrality road maps, five guiding principles were created based on campus site analysis and precedent research. These principles offer a founding philosophy for the University of Arizona to achieve carbon and water neutrality. Each implementation in the road map is associated with one of these five principles to link actions with overall, guiding vision. Although the list is not exhaustive, the most important ideas are elevated. These five principles represent the tone of the students’ common concern for the university and collective vision for its future as a carbon and water neutral campus.

Principles Summary 16

Design Principle 1 | Spirited

Optimism

Partnering We, as a collective team at the University of Arizona, can approach campus sustainability with optimism. We have a beautiful and historic campus that has immense potential to be a leader in taking on the challenge of climate action and sustainability with strongly coordinated efforts. Students, faculty, administrators, and staff can all positively contribute in small daily action and large pivotal policy. Carbon examples: Carbon Centered Decision Making Policy v1.0, Net Zero New Construction Policy v1.0, Maximized Building Efficiency, Renewable Energy Expansion, Campus Carbon Tax Policy v1.0 Water examples: New Construction Water Efficiency Policy v1.0, Drought Tolerant Planting Policy v1.0, Campus Water Tax Policy v1.0, Water Centered Decision Making Policy v1.0

Design Principle 2 | Principled

and Practical Action

Partnering and Synergy The task of addressing climate change on our campus through carbon and water action is one that is principled and practical. We believe large preventative action is better than many small fixes. Doing good for our world can mean doing good for our campus’s short, mid, and long term financial health. Carbon examples: D evelop Offsets. Water examples: Active Storm-water Retention & On-site Infiltration, Maximized Building Water Efficiency, and Expand Rainwater Catchment. Design Principle 3 | Transformative

Thinking

Engagement and Innovation We, at the University of Arizona, transform society through our teaching, research, and participation in our local, regional, and global community. A sustainable campus means transforming thinking in all our areas of influence. We can create signature, high-quality educational experiences, gain distinction as a university that is invested in taking climate action and sustainability seriously in our research and on our campus, align our programs and activities with community needs, and better our operations to serve a contemporary univer sity mission. Carbon examples: Educated Behavior Change and Discouragement of Fossil Fuel Intensive Transportation. Water examples: Educated Behavior Change an d Passive Storm-water Retention + On-site Infiltration.


Responsible Risk Taking | Design Principle 4 Innovating The word ‘risk’ has negative connotations that invoke an idea of danger. We, as a research-one university, see this word in our mandate. We can take responsible risks that promise rewards to campus performance, environmental stewardship, and social betterment while meeting the mission of the university. Carbon examples: Deep De-Carbonization of Campus Energy and Resiliency Expansion. Water examples: University of Arizona Water Hub and Resiliency Expansion.

Organizational Effectiveness | Design Principle 5 Partnering and Synergy At the University of Arizona, we can ensure responsible stewardship of resources by committing to creating practices, processes, and organizational and physical infrastructures that are effective, efficient, and transparent in operation. Carbon examples: Data Driven Energy Management and Support Carbon Neutral Transportation. Water examples: Data Driven Water Man agement

Christman Field became one of the largest solar PV systems on a college campus when it was completed in December of 2009. Built in 2 phases, the system has both tracking and fixed tilt solar arrays.

Biomass is any biological material that can be used as fuel, such as wood chips, crop residues, and other low-grade wood wastes. Biomass fuel is burned or converted in systems to produce heat, and in some cases, both heat and electricity in a combined system.

Colorado State University is one of the nation’s leading research universities, with a special emphasis on groundbreaking research in clean energy technologies. The University is committed to reducing carbon emissions through sustainable practices, highlighted in its Climate Action Plan.

In an effort to improve the health of the forests surrounding Fort Collins, Colorado State University and the Colorado State Forest Service have teamed together to build a biomass heating plant on the Foothills Campus.

Housing & Dining Services has invested in a fully automated composting system called the Earth Flow. This enclosed, 30 yard capacity compost b in is located at the Foothills Campus. Pulp from Ram’s Horn and Braiden dining centers is composted in the Earth Flow. Finished compost is used in Landscaping projects on Campus.

In the beginning, campus relied solely on renewables such as passive heating and cooling as well as daylighting. With the introduction of mechanical systems however, the U of A began to stray from its original use of renewables.

Construction of the campus central plants began in 1951 followed by campus expansion in order to accommodate the medical campus. In 1988, the Comprehensive Campus Plan was created as an aid to focus on the development of infrastructure systems within campus. Later, in 2003, three central plant systems were created to accommodate chilled water production as well as an ice storage system. Finally, in 2009 the campus began to deal with issues such as storm water and minimizing above ground facilities and infrastructure.

Originally, the University of Arizona pulled the majority of its water from aquifers beneath the ground. In the 1950s, however, Arizona experienced an extreme drought, and quickly realized that this would no longer be a viable option. This laid the framework for the development of the Central Arizona Project, which was completed years later in 1973 after the U of A expanded and developed the medical campus. From this point, the university strove to pull water strictly from the CAP and aimed to use more reclaimed water.

When the university opened its doors in 1885, there were no cars and the main way of transportation was to walk or by horse. With the introduction of the automobile, parking quickly became an issue within the campus. In order to address this, the U of A implemented public transportation such as the Cat Tran and the street car.

The overall planning of the campus is clearly illustrated through its bike paths. Almost all existing paths are horizontal in nature, suggesting that the campus developed primarily in the East-West direction.

Recycling beca in the 1960s a student began recycle. Recycl in Tucson in th it was a major of Arizona as s plan. In 2009, i campus becam result, program recycle-mania promoted.

With the addition of green buildings and more reliance on renewables such as solar, the University of Arizona has taken steps towards being more sustainable and relying less on non-renewable resources.

Today, there are three central plants providing services and resources to south campus, central campus, and the medical campus. All plants include cooling towers and water chillers. The central heating and refrigeration plant also includes ice storage and steam. The campus also relies on energy that is generated within the central plants, as well as energy that is bought from Tucson Electric Power Company.

The University of Arizona mainly utilizes water from the Central Arizona Project as wells as reclaimed water. On the main campus there is 7 miles of copper pipe providing water to 190 buildings. The main campus also has 4 wells and 5 pumps and serves over 45,000 users. Similarly, the medical campus has 2 miles of copper pipe, 2 wells, and 2 pumps for 40 buildings.

The most common modes of transportation to campus today include walking, riding a bike, and either by car or public transportation. In order to take a more sustainable approach, the university has encourage the use of bikes and has even created a program to rent out bikes. They also continually push the Cat Tran and the street car.

The current transportation route on campus includes pavement, bike lanes, vehicle lanes, and streetcar tracks. Most bike lanes within campus are incorporated with vehicle lanes. Paths along the Student Union and Green Avenue, however, are restricted to only bike and pedestrian traffic. Seventy-five percent of the existing bike paths include little to no vegetation, making them uncomfortable and unengaging spaces.

Waste manage an integral ass has very strong city facilities a waste produce taken to off-sit

The university is approaching its future use of renewables by reducing green house gas emissions, mitigating exposure to volatile energy markets, reducing energy consumption from the grid, and reducing energy costs. Increasing the use of solar and green building throughout campus will help the university to reach its goals.

Over the years, the central plant relaying energy and resources to the central portion of campus has been a main factor. The introduction of natural gas lines has also proved to be a vital part of infrastructure development. The future vision of the campus holds ideas of expanding the natural gas lines as well as further developing the other two central plants within campus to meet the standards held by the central plants that powers the majority of campus.

The future water use at the U of A implies both small changes and large scale changes. Small changes such as water bottle re-use and xeriscape continued to be implemented throughout campus. The university also strives to eliminate once-through cooling as well as introduce more water harvesting and reclaimed water irrigation on a campus-wide level.

Public transportation within the campus could be improved by including more stops for the Cat Tran, as well as more shuttles. This would cut the wait time for the Tran, and make it a more viable option for students. Continuing to push sustainable practices such as walking and using or renting a bike will also prove to be beneficial.

Future development of the circulation on campus would include the addition of another restricted bike lane for pedestrian and bicycle traffic only. The overall goal would be to organize and combine flow of bike traffic into a major circulation artery in order to increase efficiency. Restricting vehicle flow on certain streets at certain times of the day will also help to alleviate congestion and add to the efficiency of circulation flow.

Recycling became a focus of the U.S. in the 1960s and as a result of this, student began to push universities to recycle. Recycling made its big debut in Tucson in the late 80s, and by 2003 it was a major goal of the University of Arizona as set out by its master plan. In 2009, increasing recycling on campus became a main goal. As a result, programs such as recycle-mania were being heavily promoted.

At first, campus green space consisted of vines and a small cactus garden. With expansion came the creation of the U of A mall as well as the implementation of a California-style of landscaping that consisted of high-water use landscape such as palm trees and grass. In 2000, the university reverted back to using local plants adapted to the climate and created the Krutch Cactus Garden.

At first, storm water management was not a main concern of the university. Water was not harvested or re-directed in any way, and storm water would flow off of campus based on topography. Flooding was, and continues to be a main issue in regards to outdoor water management.

Originally, the main spaces dedicated to health and well-being on campus were the student union and the rec center. The U of A mall also played a large role, as it is a space for recreation and collaboration. The development of these spaces marked phase one in the university’s three part plan.

By 2003, there was only one building on campus that was considered to be green. This development continued, and slowly more and more green building were added to campus, many of them even being LEED certified.

At first, the U of A developed its campus with the intention of building for the climate and place it was in. Over the years this view shifted due to the introduction of mechanical systems, but the university is rededicating itself to this notion of sustainability in recent years. Because of this, sustainability has become more of a consideration that is embedded in the curriculum.

Waste management continues to be an integral asset on campus. It also has very strong ties and relations to city facilities and management, as the waste produced on campus must be taken to off-site facilities.

Today, campus open space is made up of a network of malls, corridors, plazas, greens, and courtyards. Most spaces strive to invoke some sort of stimulating and calming environment within an educational setting. Green spaces also imply a sense of social interaction, as many sporting events and organized event utilize open and green space.

Over the years, the expansion and development of the campus has greatly impacted the flow of storm water and runoff. The expansion of the medical campus as wells as the changes made to McKale Center alter the original flow of water.

Today, the campus can be broken up into different districts based on how health and well-being are accommodated. The zones include a future development district, a low health and well-being district, a high health and well-being district, a middle district, and a recreation district.

Currently, there are eight green buildings on campus. Some of these include the ILC, ENR2, and the Student Rec Center. These buildings are beneficial not only economically, but also environmentally. Most utilize sustainable and passive systems to supplement the basic functions of the buildings.

Today, the university provides over 112 majors that deal with issues of sustainability. These opportunities are spread throughout campus, making the education and involvement in sustainability a campus-wide endeavor. Students live and learn in a campus environment that emphasizes the importance of sustainability within their futures careers and lives.

the circulation de the addition ke lane for traffic only. be to organize ke traffic into ery in order to stricting streets at y will also help and add to ation flow.

Increasing education and awareness to recycling and waste management is a main goal of the university. Simple solutions such as banning plastic bags on campus, requiring the use of re-usable water bottles, and paperless learning can also be implemented in order to cut down on the amount of waste that is generated by the campus as a whole.

Issues of shading and solar heat gain will continue to be addressed through the use of green space and landscaping. Native plants as well as plants that can be sustained by the university’s irrigation system will continue to be planted and implemented throughout campus.

Looking forward, the university’s main goal in regards to storm water is water harvesting and collection. Both surface and underground water catchments will aid in collecting storm water. These would be located in major areas of runoff within the campus.

The future development district, which includes the medical campus and northern campus, could benefit from more development in the way of health and well-being. The addition of a recreation center, food services, and development of open spaces could greatly transform this portion of campus.

A well planned infrastructure design with sustainable building methods is crucial for the efficiency of sustainable practices campus-wide. Design guidelines established by the University of Arizona should be followed for every new building on campus. In order for the expansion of green buildings on campus the following years master plans should make sustainable buildings a top priority.

The main focus of the university in regards to eduction in the future is reaching out more and more to the community. Connections with local school districts, local businesses, community gardens, and social organizations will help to further education in sustainability and related issues.

When the university first opened, Old Main was the only building on campus. There was little growth and more traditional building techniques were used.

All historic buildings were established. Most buildings made use of passive systems and expansion was slow.

The University continued to slowly expand and more mechanical active systems were being implemented.

Past

Looking forward, it is important to distinguish which buildings are historically significant and hold importance to the University of Arizona’s history. When looking at sustainability, the remodeling or retro-fitting of a building can be beneficial and far less costly than generating new buildings. The age and significance of buildings, however, has an important impact on this process.

Did You Know? In just five years the University of Arizona’s Compost Cats have composted 10 million pounds of organic waste.

SunLink

The all-electric streetcars help reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. The capacity of one streetcar vehicle is approximately 148 passengers. Riding the Sun Link will reduce trips by bus and personal vehicle, thus reducing congestion and pollution4.

Material Resource Management This asset deals essentially with Waste Material on Campus. The management of refuse within the Campus is categorized as non-recyclable and recyclable materials. The Waste Management department at the University handles the removal, re-use and recycling of waste on campus5.

Compost Cats has its roots in local businesses and organizations around Tucson. The crew partners with the City of Tucson to collect food waste and scrap from local business, the University of Arizona, and manure from the Reid Park Zoo. T​ he organic material is then taken to the San Xavier Cooperative Farm, where the waste is then laid out in windrows. From there, the Compost Cats water, turn, and nurture the piles until soil testing.

Indoor Potable, Outdoor Potable, Outdoor Reclaimed, Storm water. UCSD relies heavily on the Colorado River for its water. The main supply is pulled from Lake Havasu via a 242 mile long aqueduct. UCSD also imports water from Northern California utilizing a 444 mile long aqueduct. These two sources supply 80-90% of the University’s water supply. UCSD receives only about 12 inches of rain a year and lies in a dry climate. The drought is a main concern for the city of San Diego as well as the campus. 40


6 Definitions & Calculations Baselines for annual carbon and water use for the UA campus were set with existing data. The increase in population of UA campus was charted for the miles stones: 2020, 2035, and 2050. Next, corresponding carbon and water annual use was projected for those milestones under a ‘business as usual’ operating assumption. Current opportunities for carbon and water use reduction were identified by analyzing usage types and potential offsets, like photovoltaic and rainwater collection.


Carbon & Water Neutrality Definition Population Growth Study & Future Population Projection Campus Baseline Data Analysis & Comparison Carbon Emission Per Capita & Projection Campus Baseline Data Analysis & Comparison Water Sources Per Capita & Projection Rainfall Data Analysis & Projection


Definitions Carbon & Water Neutrality Carbon Neutrality Carbon Neutrality means that the University of Arizona will reach a state where, on an annual basis, it will remove as much carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it emits into the atmosphere. Carbon neutrality encompasses all three measurable carbon emissions: scope 1, 2, and 3. When this state is accomplished, the campus will have a net zero carbon footprint. Conservation measures, improved efficiencies, transportation management, renewable energy, and offsets are all pieces to achieving the goal.

90


Water Neutrality Water Neutrality means that the University of Arizona will reach a state where the total amount of potable water used on campus will equal to the amount of potable water created on campus, without impacting the environment. One hundred percent of storm water must also be managed within the campus boundary. Rain water collection and treatment and sustainably managed wells are possible sources. On site water capture and reuse, increasing permeability of the ground plane, and landscapes designed for storm water management water are all potential sinks.

91


Population Projection Calculation By analyzing the population of the University of Arizona from 2009, 2010, 2012 and 2015, we were able to find the increasing percentage between every year period and use this to project future population increase.

2009 Population 35,743

Calculations: From 2009 to 2010, we can find that the annual increasing percentage is the following: (8,076 / 35,743) - 1 * 100% = 6.527%

Percentage Increase +6.527% 92

2010 Population 38,076 Percentage Increase +5.878% 2012 Population

To find the average annual increasing ratio from 2012 to 2015, we need to set it as x and use the following equation: 40,314 (x+13) = 42,388

If the increasing percentage from 2010 to 2012 is x, the following formula can be used to calculate the percentage:

40,314 (x+1) (x+1) (x +1)= 42,388

38,076 (x + 1)2= 40,314

40,314 (x3 +3x2 +3x + 1)=42,388

38,076 (x2 + 2x + 1) = 40,314

40,314x3 + 120,942x2 +120,942-2,074 =0

40,314 (x + 2x +x +x +2x +1)= 42,388

38,076x2 + 76,152x + 38,076 - 40,314 = 0 38,076x2 = 2,238 - 76,152x

Using Shengjin Formula:

x = 0.029

A=b2 -3ac=0

=

2.90%

40,314

B=bc-9ad= 1,537,946,849 C=c2 -3bd= 1,537,946,849=B B2 -4AC=B2 > 0

Percentage Increase +5.145% 2015 Population 42,388

This annual average percentage means that in 2011, the population is: 38,076 (1 + 2.897%) = 39,179

a=40,314

39,179 (1 + 2.897%) = 40,314

c=120,942

d=-2074

According to Shengjin Formula: x=

At 2012 the population is:

b=120,942

1.687%

The average annual increase ration between the years 2012 to 2015 is 1.687% for each year.


Population Future Population Projections The numbers of average annual increasing ratio between 2009-2010, 2010-2012 and 2012-2015 are 6.527%, 2.897% and 1.687%. We can see that the population growth is slowly increasing. Therefore, we might conclude that in the future, the average annual increasing ratio will never reach the former 5 years. The ratio will remain reducing every year and the population growing. Convex Increasing Function: According to the discrepancy between 2009 - 2010 and 2010 - 2012, the population growth was decelerating during these two periods. 60,000

Rainfall Projections Short (2020), Mid (2035), Long (2050) Term The Southwest is particularly vulnerable to climate change because of its aridity, and the region is projected to become even drier in decades to come. 18 Global Climate Models11 Precipitation is projected to drop by 5 percent for much of Arizona by the century’s end, based on results from an ensemble of 18 global climate models. A 10 percent decline could be in store for the southern half of Arizona. The air will hold more water vapor as it warms up. It potentially could lead to more frequent and intense storm, and heavy rainfall events, for example hurricanes and tropical storms.10 So, precipitation, in Tucson, is projected to decrease by 10% From 2000 to 2100. 2020 precipitation is projected to increase by

7 Road Map to Neutrality This studio was charged with creating a road map for UA campus to reach net zero carbon and water by 2050. Strategies paired with actionable items are outlined to guide implementation at the milestones of 2020 (short range), 2035 (mid range), and 2050 (long range). These projects offer guidance to achieve the current campus 2050 carbon neutrality goal (signed by President Hart in 2015) with additional ambitions around sustainable water management at a level which no other campus in the country is currently pursuing.

Carbon Policy Implementations Policy 1 |

Net Zero Construction Policy v 1.0 | 2020 |

All future construction on Campus must be LEEDS Platinum standard from 2016, for any project over 3000 square foot. This will reduce immediate pressure and allow Planning, Design and Construction time to change all construction into Net Zero Energy with minimum Facade Performance.

Policy 2 |

De-Carbonization Plan for Campus Energy | 2020 |

To move away from fossil fuels, the campus must begin to De-carbonize its existing energy production. The plants must be De-commissioned and replaced by electrical energy from renewable sources. This process must begin with immediate effect. 120

Policy 3 | Renewable

Energy Expansion Plan | 2020 |

In order to become net-zero energy, a new fuel source must be established for University of Arizona campus. Photovoltaic expansion on and off campus in conjuncture with heat pumps must produce all energy for campus by 2050. All available locations for PV on campus must be utilized and accordingly off campus Photovoltaics must produce the remainder of the energy needed to power the campus.

Policy 4 |

Carbon Centered Decision Making Policy v 1.0 | 2020 |

The University of Arizona will diverge from connections with Carbon Intensive companies and procurement. All ne w external facilities in contractual obl igations with the university must have incentivized carbon reduction policies, and if in the instance of equipment procurement, must be Energy Star rated.


Maximized Building Efficiency Plan | 2020 | Policy 5 In order to achieve a Net Zero Carbon Campus, existing infrastructure must be improved. A list of the EUI for every building on campus must be first created to establish buildings in need of immediate appraisal and retrofitting. All Buildings must reach an improved efficacy of 12% by 2050, All buildings must have 100% occupancy during business hours. And 70% during off peak hours. Several milestones at 2020 and 2035 have been put in place, any building that is not on the path to achieve this, or are not financially viable will be accessed for demolition or re-prioritized if appropriate.

Carbon Offset Development Plan | 2020 | Policy 6 The Universit y of Arizona with create a carbon offset network between major regional universities to develop programs and purchases together and provide for third party verification. The university with use local and regional offset programs combined with additional individual and university carbon offset purchases to become carbon neutral in scope 3 emissions by 2050. Carbon offset programs will be given priority and carbon offset purchasing will be used as a last resort to achieve the goal. A carbon tax as well as required individual offset purchases will be used to discourage energy usage as well as fund the carbon offset programs.

Campus Carbon Tax Policy v 1.0 | 2035 | Policy 7 There will be regulations in place for departments and colleges on campus, in conjuncture with Carbon use. This policy will introduce a tax for each building on their carbon use. The average energy use will be calculated per department due to different carbon averages, i.e. laboratories will produce much higher energy than literature buildings. Any building that exceed the departmental average will pay a carbon tax on that.

Educated Buildings


Physical Implementation The University of Arizona campus should be more aware about sustainability all around the campus by the year 2020. Physical implementations will include building signage and building dashboards in student dorms and buildings that have a lot of public interaction. These dashboards and signage will include facts or activities going on around campus that will make the whole campus aware of carbon inpact. EcoRepresentatives will recruit , hire and train students and teachers to join the program.

123

Lifestyle Change

Student dormitory competitions will begin to motivate students to contribute to a carbon neutral campus. Also a new student and employee orientation will be given about energy usage and conversation measures. This orientation will be mandatory for all coming freshmen and employees to gain knowledge about carbon footprint in collage. Establish EcoRep program run by students that find imaginative ways to educate peers about living sustainable.

Building Submeters


Physical Implementation

Operations Center

All buildings on the UA campus will be fitted with submeters to track each building’s energy and water usage. All of this data will be centralized into one location for engineers to utilize. This central location allows for easy analysis of building performance across the campus and will lead to building and system improvements that can be fixed by 2020.

In Phase I of the Data Management Plan all building on campus will be required to become submetered. The data collection will be used to track any current and future building inefficiency such as system malfunction, leakage, and unnecessary energy wasting behavior. The data collection and analysis engineers will work in connection with the Building Efficiency Implementation team to ensure optimal building energy use. Once the buildings are submetered continuous commissioning will be required for all buildings on campus, to be administered biannually.

The renewable energy expansion provides campus a huge amount of electricity for our energy consumption which contributes on reducing carbon emission every scope. We wish the renewable energy can offer the campus about 30% of energy consumption and reach more than 50 percent of process on carbon neutrality. Therefore, this implement is a huge step in realizing our final target on 2050.

Phase 2 implement includes the PV expansion and waste energy facilities. On campus, Over 60% buildings will be integrated with PV, which provides us more than 14 millions of kilowatt hours of electricity annually and eliminate almost 10,000 metric tons of CO2e. As to off-campus, 2,500 more pieces of solar panels needs to be constructed to generate electricity. For the waste facility, corresponding facilities will be built to support the waste energy research. Moreover, waste energy plant will be built to the south of campus where we do campus waste incineration to generate waste energy. In this situation, we can reduce 12.74% of scope 3 emission

Physical Implementation The campus carbon tax is set to control and manage the buildings’ carbon emissions. All the departments, colleges, organizations or individual buildings will be charged by a accordingly amount of tax for the part of over emitted carbon. This implement has a benefit of giving awareness to all the students and faculties on campus. Everybody has the obligation to help campus reduce carbon emission. However, there are still several different situations and discrepancy among all the departments and colleges on campus.

According to the difference among all the departments and colleges, a standard is necessary for regulate the carbon tax process. For example, laboratories might have much more carbon emission than those literature, art or language colleges. For the sake of making a fair specification, we tend to gather all the emission data in the past and present, then analyze it to get an average number and the future trend for each departments and colleges. This standard will help to regulate the tax charging.

UA emits a lot of carbon emissions into atmosphere from each building, plant even vehicle

Physical Implementation According to the lifespan of solar panels, we tend to renew and upgrade all the existing 5,000 PV panels into high performance and solar tracking available, which can double the efficiency. Additionally, all the on-campus building solar panels need to upgrade with solar tracking system. In this way, we can get 54.08% of energy produced by our solar panels. The waste energy will be expanded to city-wide scale to cut off waste emission and cover all the energy demand from the campus. We expect to generate waste energy and reduce 14.65% emission in scope 3. Our waste plant will cooperate with Tucson City Waste Management and burn 32,687 tons of extra MSW to generate all the energy we need.

Through water resiliency, the campus can thrive even in extreme desert conditions.

As water becomes more and more of a scarce resource, it is important that the university is able to sustain itself off of water that is captured and treated on site. Because of this, all buildings on campus will be required to capture rainwater, link to the black water treatment facility, and infiltrate any storm water than is captured on site. All new buildings are to be designed with this idea of independence from city water in mind, as well as being designed to be resilient and withstand any drought or water crisis.

Stored Rainwater for Irrigation

In the mid term, the system expand based on the exist system of Phase 1. Phase 2 is focus on the building near the Phase 1 and demonstrated building. For dealing with the rainwater that have been stored for a while, a dual filtration step with U.V. Sanitation filters the water to 5 microns and essentially sterilizes the water exiting to the irrigation system to minimize any risk to public health. More than having the rain collection system at roof, UA should started to construct off the solar car shade surfaces to collect water at parking lots.

UA should have the policy about all water usage of irrigation should coming from rainwater, and all new construction in campus should have the rainwater collection system. Also, catchment, conveyance and storage should be in the design process to prepare for the construction of Phase 3. Also, the policy about the filtration of rainwater is important to protect the public health.

Infrastructure will be needed so that the participating buildings can be dual plumbed and are able to discharge the black water for treatment and receive the water for re-use. This retrofit can be addressed while dual plumbing is being implemented for rain water re-use for older buildings and should be in place for new buildings.

Looking forward, it is important that the university continues to maintain these systems for the sake of independence and resiliency. The campus will be required to operate mainly off of its closed loop systems, and will tap into Central Arizona Project water only in cases of severe drought or emergency.

Re cla i

Because the campus will be demonstrating more of a selfsustaining, closed-loop system in 2050, the reliance on city water and Central Arizona Project water will decrease. The campus will have a potable water loop consisting of storm water and rainwater and how that can be infiltrated to recharge ground water and wells. The campus will also have a reclaimed water loop dealing with reclaimed water for irrigation and treated water from the water hub. This results in less overall potable water use.
