The U.S. Geological Survey’s MD-DE-DC Water Science Center is offering this cooperative agreement to a CESU-affiliated partner. This grant is for conducting vital chemical analysis of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and wastewater constituents within various environmental and experimental samples. The primary purpose is to collaborate on understanding the occurrence and fate of these critical contaminants. Research will focus on diverse hydrogeologic environments and infrastructure, including coastal watersheds, shallow soils and sediments, groundwater, and wastewater treatment facilities. This initiative aims to provide crucial insights into pollutant pathways and their environmental impact.
