Our new 3-year, $799,952 project, “Predicting Drinking Water Contamination from Extreme Weather to Reduce Early Life Contaminant Exposures” was funded by the U.S. Environment Protection Agency and brings together economists, pediatricians, atmospheric scientists, engineers, designers and ecologists to predict when private wells are likely to become contaminated and launch targeted risk communications to households with newborns. The project is led by the Haub School and brings together researchers from the University of Wyoming, East Carolina University and The Citadel.
