BACKGROUND / INTRODUCTION. Xxxxxx Reservoir (fig. 1), located in south-central Kansas, was constructed by the Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Department of the Interior, between 1962 and 1965. The primary purpose of Xxxxxx Reservoir is to provide the city of Wichita, Kansas, with a reliable municipal water supply, downstream flood control, wildlife habitat, and recreation (Bureau of Reclamation, 2016). Approximately 70 percent of Wichita’s municipal water supply came from Xxxxxx Reservoir during 1995 through 2013 (Xxxxxx and others, 2014). Water-supply needs and reliance on Xxxxxx Reservoir will continue to increase with ongoing population growth and urban development. Source-water protection is essential to preserving water-quality conditions and ensuring safe and reliable drinking-water supplies in the future. Cyanobacterial blooms in Xxxxxx Reservoir during 1990 and 1991 caused severe taste- and-odor events and prompted the formation of the Xxxxxx Reservoir Task Force in 1992. Nutrients and sediments were identified by the task force as the primary pollutants of concern in the Xxxxxx Reservoir watershed because of their effects on water quality and quantity and their relation to cyanobacterial blooms. Stream-water-quality goals for nutrients and sediment were established to improve water-quality conditions in Xxxxxx Reservoir (Xxxxxx Reservoir Task Force, 1994). To achieve these goals, the city of Wichita, along with other state and federal agencies, invests in cost-share programs to encourage best management practice implementation in the Xxxxxx Reservoir watershed. Since 1996, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with the city of Wichita, has conducted studies in the Xxxxxx Reservoir watershed with the goal of understanding and improving water quality. Occasional taste and odor events continue to occur on Xxxxxx Reservoir (Xxxxxx and others, 2017). Initial studies determined sub-basin sources of contaminants, chemical loading into and out of Xxxxxx Reservoir, changes in reservoir sediment quality over time, and watershed sources of phosphorus (x.x. Xxxxxxxxxxx and Xxxx, 1997; Xxxx and Xxxxxxxx, 2000; Xxxx and others, 2002). Later studies focused on real-time estimation of water-quality constituent concentrations and mass transport from the watershed, trends in water- quality constituent transport in the watershed, and the description of in-reservoir conditions that may result in the occurrence of cyanobacteria and associated compounds (x.x. Xxxxxxxxxxx and others, 2006...

BACKGROUND / INTRODUCTION. Given the Democratic Republic of Congo’s (DRC) tumultuous economic and violent history, there is currently a lack of adequate health infrastructure particularly in terms of energy access at health facilities. Furthermore, there is a gap in existing literature on the impact and evaluation of improved energy access and its relationship to health service delivery and utilization. Finally, IMA World Health requires an assessment to determine the impact on health-seeking behavior from their investment in solar energy in the DRC through the ASSP Project. Objective: The purpose of this Master’s thesis is to document any changes in utilization of health services at the health center level pre and post solar panel installations in order to measure the health impact of increasing access to solar energy at health facilities in the DRC.
BACKGROUND / INTRODUCTION. Michigan Tech proposes to assemble a team of recognized experts from across Michigan and beyond in subjects including engineering, hydrodynamics, public health, ecology/environmental science, economics, resource management, and social science to perform an independent risk analysis of the Straits section of Enbridge’s Line 5 pipelines for the State of Michigan. This analysis will estimate the total potential liability for a worst-case spill scenario at this site, including the direct costs of containment/cleanup and restoration as well as the total value of economic losses including public health, cultural and natural resources, commercial, and real estate damages. In 2010, Michigan experienced one of the largest inland oil spills in US history when a pipeline known as Line 6B burst and spilled in excess of 1 million gallons of heavy crude into a tributary of the Kalamazoo River. To prevent future accidents of this nature, the State formed a multi- agency task force called the Michigan Petroleum Pipeline Task Force. The task force issued a report in 2015 that made 13 recommendations, including the establishment of the Pipeline Safety Advisory Board (PSAB) and the commissioning of two studies of the Mackinac Straits portion of Enbridge, Inc.’s Line 5 pipelines: a risk analysis and an alternatives analysis. A final report on the alternatives analysis was published on November 20, 2017. The risk analysis, however, was halted in June 2017 when the State of Michigan became aware of a Conflict of Interest with the firm contracted to perform the analysis and consequently terminated its contract. The State subsequently identified Michigan Technological University (Michigan Tech, MTU) as a potential project lead for a multi-institution team to take over the risk analysis. Michigan Tech was identified because of the faculty’s extensive knowledge of the complex flows in the Straits of Mackinac region. The director of Michigan Tech’s Great Lakes Research Center, Xx. Xxx Xxxxxxx, served on the PSAB at that time as the representative of state universities and therefore he recused himself of voting on the matter. The other members of the PSAB voted unanimously to recommend that the State of Michigan contract with Michigan Tech. Xx. Xxxxxxx subsequently resigned from the PSAB to lead the new risk analysis proposal development and avoid any appearance of conflict of interest during the project.
