The Landscape Services group provides landscape maintenance services including irrigation, hillside fire mitigation, landscape maintenance, street sweeping, contract management, and consultation.
The UC Berkeley campus uses 605 million gallons of water per year. Only 8% goes to irrigation and outdoor uses. Approximately 50% of campus water is used in bathrooms, showers, kitchens and for other “domestic” uses. Labs take almost 30% of the campus total and our steam plant, which provides heating and hot water to the central campus, uses about 10%.
