    • .02 COMPOSTING STATIONS
  • Stations shall be provided in all new construction and major renovation projects at University Park and Commonwealth Campuses.
  • University composting station preferences
  • Because of the unique nature of the organic composting program it is recommended that compost stations have a distinctive color scheme to better distinguish them from other waste or recycling containers.
    • The compost stations will be fitted with solid lids and handles to mitigate potential odor and insect problems.
