This grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency focuses on research to develop risk management strategies concerning the underground injection of anthropogenic carbon dioxide. The aim is to ensure safe storage in geologic formations, prevent endangerment of drinking water sources, and integrate design, modeling, and monitoring approaches. Researchers will investigate how to safeguard drinking water sources while storing CO2 underground effectively. Closing date for applications is January 06, 2009, 12:00:00 AM EST.

| Description: | The research in this rfa may involve the collection of geospatial infomation. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), as part of its Science To Achieve Results (STAR) program, is seeking applications to conduct research to support the development of sound risk management strategies for the underground injection of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) in candidate subsurface geologic formations. To further the scientific understanding of this practice, research is needed to investigate how integrating approaches in design, siting, modeling and monitoring of CO2 in the subsurface can provide safe and effective storage, mitigate potential risks, and prevent endangerment of existing and potential sources of drinking water. |
