The university has implemented a water conservation program through the development and maintenance of four on-campus reservoirs for rainwater harvesting and water storage. These reservoirs collect and store rainwater runoff during the rainy season, providing an alternative water source for landscape irrigation, campus greenery maintenance, and other non-potable water uses.
The total water storage capacity of the reservoirs is approximately 233,220 cubic meters or 3788.8772 m², contributing significantly to reducing groundwater extraction and municipal water consumption. This initiative enhances water resource management, increases campus resilience during dry seasons, and supports sustainable water conservation practices.
Furthermore, the reservoirs serve multiple environmental functions, including stormwater management, flood mitigation, groundwater recharge support, biodiversity enhancement, and the creation of green recreational spaces for students and staff. The university continuously maintains these water conservation facilities as part of its commitment to sustainable campus development and integrated water resource management.
