USGS Announces Grants for Water Studies

摘要

The US Geological Survey (USGS) recently awarded nearly $1 million to four university programs across the country through the National Competitive Grants Program. Proposals from Purdue University (Indiana), the University of Iowa, University of Maryland, and the University of Nebraska won the grants this year. Purdue University's project will address the need to improve the nation's water supply through the evaluation of what factors limit adoption of urban stormwater conservation practices. The project goal is to improve water quality planning and implementation management practices.
