UNC-RFQ-25-02 - UNC Landscape Water Resiliency Comprehensive Plan

Project Description   
This strategic initiative will identify a 10-year course for landscape water conservation and resilience planning, covering 260 acres of campus landscape.
The project will inventory vegetation, water usage, and infrastructure, informing recommendations for conservation strategies, stormwater harvesting, and infrastructure improvements. Guided by the University's Rowing not Drifting Strategic plan, it prioritizes student involvement, inclusivity, and innovation. By fostering meaningful discussions and implementing resilient designs, UNC aims to lead in water conservation, aligning
with statewide water conservation agendas.
The project will enhance campus sustainability, promote cost-effective solutions, and engage with community partners for regional water resource management. It directly supports UNC’s academic mission by providing a welcoming environment and addressing deferred maintenance issues associated with aging infrastructure. Through proactive risk management, UNC seeks to safeguard its landscape as an asset for current and future generations.
