The Reflection Pond Site Improvements project enhances the pond and surrounding area with new lighting, security cameras, and seating to create quiet reflection zones. ADA upgrades will be incorporated in the perimeter walkway and the path to the elevator. The project removes existing stanchions, adds new pond access, and improves water flow to prevent stagnant water and algae buildup.

Tree Management Plan

An extensive tree protection plan—developed with Clemson University Landscape Services—will preserve trees during construction. Protection fencing (5 ft height, portable or roll sections, posts at 8 ft on center) will be installed, and construction will be restricted to the protected area. The contractor will maintain all tree protection measures throughout the project.
