The audit of monthly water use was carried out. We have a 45000 gallons overhead reservoir tank at our campus. We have above 3500 day-scholar students, 600 hostellers and above 200 teaching and non-teaching staff. Approximately, it was observed that the tank is filled with water three timesin working days. In holidays, the tank is filled with water about two times because of 600 hosteller and above 40 residents of the college quarter.The amount of water used per month is [{(4500x3) x25} + {(4500x2) x5}] = 38, 25,000 gallons.

The audit of drinking water on campus [bottled water] was also performed. We have a Water ATM (3000 liter/day) for safe drinking water in our campus and one filter unit (3000 liter/day) at hostel for hostellers.There are also 18 portable water purifiers within the different academic buildings at college campus and hostel premises–

Recycling waste (paper, organic waste form canteens and kitchens)

The vegetable wastes generated in the kitchen are being used to produce organic manure. It is regularly collected and put in compost pits. Talks have been initiated with paper mills of Jhargram, for recycling the huge amount of waste paper generated in different departments for recycling.

Set up compost pit for recycling waste

A large compost pit has been built nearby to the kitchen of hostel and is being maintained regularly.

Ensure zero littering

We are ensuring zero littering in the college campus through awareness campaigns as well placing wastebins at strategic points for use.

Ban plastic use in the campus

The use of plastic has been banned inside the college campus. Encouragement is being given for the use of jute and paper bags. We have created plastic free zones within the college premises.

4. ENERGY MANAGEMENT

Create short-term and long-term plan for the use of solar energy on the campus

For the above said purpose we have sent a proposal to The Minister-In-Charge, West Bengal Renewable Energy Development Agency for installation of Solar Photo Voltaic Power Generation facilities at the roof tops of 06 college Hostel Buildings covering a total area of 30,588.7 square feet. Our Governing body has also passed a resolution to set up a solar tree within the college premises. For this purpose we have progressed through the initial phase of discussion with Dr. Anjali Chatterjee of Durgapur, CMERI.

Setting up a nursery

A nursery of flowering plants, ornamental plants as well as vegetables have been set up. This winter all the flowering plants used for beautification of the college campus has been provided by this nursery. Also, some revenue has been generated by selling seeds and saplings produced in this nursery.

Setting up a compost pit

Sveral compost pits have been set up in different parts of the college campus and regularly organic manure is being produced in them. The college has stopped buying inorganic fertilizers and is using this organic manure for its different plants in maintain various gardens. Moreover, a vermicomposting unit has also been developed in the college and is being maintained regularly.
