The Department of Environmental Studies is offering a grant for the monitoring and impact assessment of a Slurry Pipeline. This grant aims to measure gains and losses to determine the sand quantity to be transported, assess habitat quality variations, and analyze the effects on topography and macrofauna. The research will continue over additional seasons, providing valuable data on the pipeline’s operation. Application deadline: July 19, 2011.

| Description:: | The purpose of this Task Agreement is: 1) measurement of the quantities of gains at Gunnison and the losses at the Critical Zone to establish the dimension of sand to be moved via the pipeline; and 2) measure of the initial habitat quality and the return to the initial habitat quality associated with the transfers. This continuation will provide monitoring results over additional seasons and will establish measurements of topography and macrofauna associated with testing of the pipeline operation. |
