Chatham University
OP-T2-48: Weather-Informed Irrigation

Status Score Responsible Party
Complete 0.25 / 0.25
"---" indicates that no data was submitted for this field

Does the institution use weather data or weather sensors to automatically adjust irrigation practices?:
Yes

A brief description of how weather data or sensors are used:

We do not water grass regularly and we do not have a built-in irrigation system.
In rare times of extreme heat we may water newly-established trees or borders, but this is done on a high-stress basis only.
In the fall we re-seed the upper campus quad, due to summer camp damage, and this requires irrigation. This is only done during this re-seeding process, and not at any other time of the year.
