WPI Students Present Outstanding Interactive Qualifying Projects

On December 18, two groups of WPI students presented their IQP projects to members of MassDEP and participating CMRSWC Communities.  Descriptions of the two projects are below.  Stayed tuned to this website for the full project reports.  The Coalition congratulates the students for their hard work and great projects!

Team 1 created a checklist, as requested by the Steering Committee, that will help communities determine their compliance with the 2003 permit, as well as the coming permit (based on the New Hampshire permit language).  This will help the Coalition determine where to focus their efforts in 2014.

Team 2 built a database that ranks catchment areas according to the provisions of the New Hampshire permit but in a user-friendly yes/no checklist; breaking down one of the most complicated section of the new permit into an easy to understand list of questions.
