A brief description of the source of non-potable water and how it is used:
There are three irrigation systems on campus. One utilizes well water, and a second utilizes the run-off from a spring that is directed into a holding tank. A pump pulls the water from the holding tank which then is used to pressurize the irrigation system. The third system currently uses potable water. Future plans include tying this system into the spring fed system.
