These 2 units were delivered to Noyes 1st floor north and south entry ways 11/12/2024.
Fabricated through our own mill shop. Cost to make two of these bins is attached.
Members of the Zero Waste Team analyzed the main buildings in each of the three central quads. Locations of current 3-bins were noted as well as areas where more were needed. The plan is to transition away from single flow trash and recycling bins towards a system where only 3-bins are used in main hallways. This will ensure that there are well marked bins in highly visible areas and will condense the many bins that need to be serviced by university workers into fewer overall bins. Overall this initiative will lead to improved waste management efficiency and increased recycling rates across the campus.

Hi Dave,
What effort and rough costs would it take to clean off the hard water stains on filler station spouts across campus?
Thanks,
Morgan

Pete,
What do you think about this? I will see if we have a list.
Dave
-------------------
We do have a list…I’ll have to find it and get it to you.
Thank you,
Pete

Is this the BSW team to do this work?
Dave
----------------
Yeah, we remove water stains from sinks and faucets. If the Plumbing shop doesn’t mind we can add it to our “to do” list.
Thank you,
Pete

Pete,
We view this as BSW work not the Plumbing shop.
Thanks,

Hi Dave and Pete,
Pete – were you able to get some of these water bottle fillers cleaned, per the email below?
Dave and Pete – who would be responsible for resetting the filter status indicator light on the water hydration stations? I believe the filters would be replaced through BMG, but is the indicator light something that would be reset when the filter gets replaced? And I think there could be some hydration stations out there with no filter, but that still have a filter status indicator light…
Thanks,
Morgan

Given our staffing shortages, we have not started working on this. It should be something we can get to over the winter break if hiring continues at the current pace.
Thank you,
Pete
