A student team from Norwich University in Northfield, Vt., is among five teams in New England chosen by EPA to receive up to $15,000 to pursue projects that deliver sustainable, alternative methods of addressing environmental challenges. The team at Norwich University won the funding for a project to re-design pervious, or permeable, concrete to harvest and filter storm water runoff contaminated by organics, nutrients, and metals, and convert it to meet drinking water quality standards. The project is called "Pervious Concrete Filters for Sustainable Water Resources Management."
