During last August, $7,451 was spent at CV
$89,412 per year at CV
$5,669 per month was spent at CHS
$68,028 per year at CHS
14,150,000 gallons used per year at CV
14 water meters
Estimated that CHS uses 10,756,606 gallons per year
7 water meters
A majority of water used by students is because of bathroom use
How often do you use the drinking fountains? A few times a day 111 Once a day 41 A few times a week 73 A few times a month 59 Almost never 343

Most sinks are automatic
B-building: 4 manual sinks, 2 of the sinks leak, 4 toilets with no gallon specification, 1 toilet perpetually runs

CHS may use less water because the school is newer
Decreasing the number of water meters may increase efficiency
Most of CV’s unsustainable practices are a result of either malfunctioning or outdated equipment
Find out the purpose of each water meter at CV
Research costs of new facilities such as toilets and sinks
Research a rainwater collector Look into CHS’s potentially sustainable
practices Consider other aspects of CV water use
