Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Water consumption includes wastewater consumption. Cubic feet of water converted to gallons using the formula: 1 CF = 7.481 gal. "2005" was interpreted as fiscal year 2005 (for UT Knoxville, 7/1/04-6/30/05) "Performance year" was interpreted as fiscal year 2010. Population faculty/staff totals include regular UTK and UTIA employees. Employees classified as "University Support" are included in fall 2004 faculty/staff total but not that of fall 2009. The university dropped this classification after 2004. Water consumption does not include UT Knoxville-owned facilities that are located off campus (e.g., Volunteer Hall and the UT Conference Center).
