A2: There are five generators in total. At the North Campus area there are the two Kohler generators and each has a 4,900 gallon tank. Behind B2 in the South Campus area there are three Caterpillar generators that share a single 10,000 gallon underground tank.

Last year we made one order of 9000 gallons for the entire site.
