Which of the following best describes the institution’s approach to rainwater management?:
A brief description of the institution’s green infrastructure and LID practices:
Although Sheridan does not have a LID practice as a "matter of policy or standard practice," we have a stormwater manager control system located at its Davis Campus in Brampton. The system is designed so that ground-level and parking lot water is collected within stormwater catch basins around the campus and diverted into the onsite stormwater management control reservoir collection system. This water is then maintained with a control reservoir which has a discharged controlled drainage point, the concept is for the water to be released into conservation storm system at a control rate.
The stormwater system has an inline interceptor that is designed to catch dirt , silt , oils and particulates within the storm drain itself to prevent this materials from getting into the storm water reservoir. The inner design of the interceptor is a control baffle style where the particulate, oils, silt from the parking lots are captured, stored and the system are manually cleaned out and inspected once a year.
Also, Sheridan has a rainwater harvesting system for the Davis campus A-Wing and this water is used for the plumbing training lab program. Also, there is a rainwater harvesting system at HMC2, which is used for the washroom toilets/urinals in the building.
