Water Center At Penn Hosts Jan. 25 Webinar On Lower Delaware River Bacteria Study

The Water Center at the University of Pennsylvania will host a January 25 webinar on the Lower Delaware River Bacteria Study from Noon to 1:15 p.m.

The webinar will present the Water Center's new report, Delaware River Bacteria Study: An Evaluation of the Occurrence and Sources of Fecal Indicator Bacteria in the Camden-Chester-Philadelphia Region and Opportunities for Remediation.

The Delaware River Bacteria Study is an independent, science-based water quality and water policy study.

It evaluates the occurrence and sources of fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) in the Camden-Chester-Philadelphia region of the Delaware River and opportunities for remediation.

The Water Center would like to express our gratitude to Michael Baker International for their collaboration on this report, and to the William Penn Foundation for its support of this project.
