The University of Pittsburgh presented its campus-wide stormwater management and reuse plan at the May 25, 2021 Oakland-Wide meeting. Hillside redevelopment between upper and lower campuses to make it more accessible and sustainable is underway. Their stormwater master plan illustrates existing and future opportunities for water capture and sheds. Pitt has developed the Posvar Stormwater Reuse Project to capture run-off water from the hillside via an underground storage tank.
