The Grand Prize Winner of the 2022 SLCo Stormwater Coalition Water Science & Engineering Competition is about unsafe human defecation in the rivers of Africa. As a solution, the project proposes micro-gardens in which pole beans are planted and human waste is used as a high-quality fertilizer.
2022 SLCo Stormwater Coalition Water Science & Engineering Competition Award for Experiments. The video shows awardees, Amalia and Gia exploring water filtration using household items to improve pH levels and prevent health issues.
2022 SLCo Stormwater Coalition Water Science & Engineering Competition winner for prototype shows filtration of stormwater. The concept is that a filter would be installed under each storm drain to filter stormwater before it flows directly into our streams, rivers, and lakes.
2022 SLCo Stormwater Coalition Water Science & Engineering Competition award for Big Idea is a project that discusses water usage in farming/agriculture. The student compares alfalfa to clover as feed for livestock, working to find a nutrient rich, water-saving option.
