Does your facility require monitoring water use efficiency?

Did you know, U.S. executive order 13514 was put in place back in 2009 to regulate monitoring potable water of government campuses? Updated in 2015, in part it states:

“Federal Agencies shall, where life-cycle cost-effective, beginning in fiscal year 2016, unless otherwise specified, improve agency water use efficiency and management, including stormwater management by:

  • Reducing agency potable water consumption intensity measured in gallons per gross square foot by 36 percent by fiscal year 2025 through reductions of 2 percent annually through fiscal year 2025 relative to a baseline of the agency’s water consumption in fiscal year 2007
  • Installing water meters and collecting and utilizing building and facility water balance data to improve water conservation and management;”
