Feb. 23rd Virginia Tech KTU exhibit- "The Importance of our Watershed"

The American Water Resources Association (AWRA) will be setting up a model of a watershed that will be used to demonstrate the effects of pollution from the local community on the environment. They will use tools to demonstrate where stormwater drains to, and how this can be damaging to surrounding bodies of water due to the pollution that different human activities contribute to the runoff. They will then demonstrate different ways that humans can implement different buffers around the community to help stunt polluting factors from entering important waterways.
