Secondly, our campus has signage regarding the laundry to landscape program. Laundry to Landscape is a greywater system that was developed in an effort to help conserve water on campus. Greywater is wastewater from homes or offices that is not contaminated by human waste, that, after treatment, can be used for toilets, landscaping, or other non-potable uses.
