As our company begins to make a name for ourselves, The Cutting Edge-Landscaping intentions are to obtain 100 homes on a route with most of the home owners that are retirees and or who are in the mist of retiring.

The client has had a strong support system in the past and is open to creating another one. This is strength because it demonstrates that the client is open reaching out to others in times of need and is a resiliency factor.

In terms of water usage, ASU’s campus is Arizona’s largest public arboretum, and is committed to proper water management. They were able to reduce 29 percent of indoor potable water usage by the use of 0.5-gpm fixtures. In addition, 76 percent of potable irrigation water consumption was reduced through landscape and irrigation tactics.

One longitudinal façade consists almost entirely of glass, while the parallel side has punctured window openings. The architect strategically uses these design features to help incorporate innovative, environmental site strategies.

Landscape, when applied to an urban context, no longer refers to prospects of a pastoral scene but rather becomes a mean of connecting objects and spaces around it, as well as accommodating the dynamic processes and events that move through it. These urban landscapes are not only defined by their form, but by the program that surrounds it, as well as its ability to connect with the user through its underlying function. The snow dump known as the Bayview yards, is an example of such urban landscape. Bayview Yards is a 16 acre piece of land that is currently home to a derelict city workshop and a massive area designated for a snow dump. Through the site’s history and function a new opportunity comes forward to redefine the landscape, extenuating

In actuality, Camp Young Judaea Texas utilizes between 3.9-4.1 million gallons of water, not including the 2-3 million gallons used for landscaping purposes. Surpassing the allotted amount of water occurs primarily in the summer months following droughts or changes in temperature. During this time, the camp must switch to using water provided by the city or risk being fined for exceeding water limits. Keeping this in mind, CYJ proposes the installation of water structures that provide camp with the ability to reuse at least 30% of our waste-water before the summer of 2017. Eventually, our camp hopes to match global leaders in water sustainability that have reached an average of 97% wastewater

Established in 1888, the Brown’s Valley Irrigation District is one of YCWA’s eight local water districts. We obtain water under contract from YCWA and then provide that water for agricultural purposes in an area of Yuba County that spans nearly 87 square miles, with approximately 1,500 installed connections. YCWA provides this essential water supply by actively controlling and storing water at New Bullards Bar Reservoir, which enables us to convey it to

Since New York City’s daily water consumption relies solely on the Catskill and Delaware watersheds, the Catskill Aqueduct would become the main lifeline to New York once the Delaware aqueduct is shut down. In anticipation of this, the Catskill aqueduct will undergo a repair and rehabilitation project starting in 2016. Along with replacing more than 30 valves that are decades old, the interior lining of the tunnel will be cleaned to reduce friction, increasing the tunnel’s capacity by approximately 30-40 million gallons of water each day. Although sections of the aqueduct are expected to be shut down for six to eight weeks at a time, there would be minimal service disruption due to existing backup supplies for communities who would be otherwise affected (“Water for the Future | Catskill Aqueduct Repair & Rehabilitation”).

Farmers need water to grow crops, feed animals, and, of course, to stay alive; but, how much water is too much? When farmers- and other land owners- use too much of their own water and run out, they dig. They don’t dig straight down, they dig

The Brisbane exterior decorators more often than not demonstrate special slant towards by and large a messy range to research and revamp it into an excellent garden, with the goal that they can compliment the normal substance of the adjacent surroundings

In response to a University of Florida Request for Proposal, the TechCorp company has formed a research team to investigate water usage on the University of Florida campus. The University of Florida occupies a unique role as a leader in sustainability and ecological awareness in the region, and in keeping with this role, emphasizes efficient water usage. However, this team’s research has shown that not only are university water supplies outdated and inefficient, but they are also unsatisfactory to students and faculty. This team has proposed a series of solutions designed to repair and replace damaged structures with highly efficient equipment and materials, and has scheduled maintenance plans for bathrooms, landscapes areas, pools, lecture halls

Kentlands has idiosyncrasy and imperfections--intentionally. Authentic variety is achieved by allowing odd, leftover lots to remain, forcing the design of a building for just that lot. We insisted that the imprecision of design sketches be reflected in the built work. It took years for the engineers to get used to not straightening every street or making every

Expectations of the stakeholders and customer need to be in line with the project objectives and deliverables. During project initiation, it is critical that those expectations are outlined in approved baselines so performance can be measured throughout the project. With the utilization of established baselines, performance can be measured using earned value management and reported accordingly. This will also ensure that contractual requirements are being maintained, which is critical in today’s competitive environment. This will also assist in creating the scope, budget and schedule baselines so performance throughout the project can be measured to ensure performance is meeting everyone’s needs and expectations. This paper will outline the re-carpeting project and further establish viability verification, threshold establishment, overhead costs and management oversight. Finally, using Earned Value Management (EVM) can provide all key personnel a snapshot of where the project stands at any given point during the entire life cycle.

Every day Americans depend on public water systems to treat and deliver over 44 billion gallons of water to homes daily (“Importance of Clean Water”). However, Americans
