Directed Research Programs

Overview

With the support of the U.S. EPA, SCERP has developed a strategy that targets complex, region-wide environmental issues through directed research programs that are multi-disciplinary, multi-year, and multi-institutional, involving three or more members of the consortium. The steps taken to develop a Directed Research Program include the following:

  1. A descriptive white paper is created
  2. SCERP's Management Committee and SCERP'S Project Officer at EPA approve the concept
  3. A research team is selected
  4. The research team submits a program proposal that is reviewed by peers and approved by the Management Committee and EPA Project Officer. In addition, each Directed Research Program has a scientific or technical advisory group.
