This $119,999 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) will support a collaborative research project to assess the climate resilience of combined sewer systems and its impact on marginalized communities. The project, led by the University of Houston System, will develop an integrated modeling framework to analyze the resilience of a combined sewer system in Des Moines, Iowa to wet weather conditions under climate change. The research aims to 1) advance data analytics and modeling methodologies for urban wastewater systems, 2) assess system-level resilience, and 3) uncover the vulnerability of marginalized communities to combined sewer overflows (CSOs). By prioritizing equity and incorporating future climate conditions, this work is expected to provide insights that can catalyze equitable solutions for CSO management and mitigation, fostering enduring benefits for marginalized communities. The award period is from August 1, 2024 to July 31, 2027.
