UW was awarded a $1.2 million grant from the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for a community-based effort to improve water and soil testing programs along the Duwamish River, which has suffered decades of industrial contamination. Led by University of Washington Bothell Assistant Professor Melanie Malone, the project will work with nearby communities to support decision-making for future cleanup and stormwater management. SEFS Assistant Professor Brittany Johnson is a Co-Investigator on the project.
