This $440,000 federal Project Grant, awarded by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) under the Environmental Health (CFDA 93.113) program, supports research to understand the relationship between bedrock lithology, water quality, and health equity in Oklahoma.

The key products and services to be delivered under this award include:

  1. Modeling the link between bedrock lithology, land use, settlement patterns, and the uneven distribution of health-related water quality issues across Oklahoma.

  2. Collecting primary geochemical data to analyze how bedrock lithology impacts the filtration of health-impacting pollutants in water.

  3. Conducting household surveys in Oklahoma to understand how bedrock lithology affects drinking water quality and human health.

The project will employ a multidisciplinary approach, integrating secondary data analysis, primary geochemical data collection, and novel social science survey techniques. A sub-award of unspecified amount will support the University of Oklahoma's role in leading the geochemical data collection and analysis activities.
