Tour Highlights How Farm Practices Can Protect Drinking Water

1024 831 Stroud Water Research Center

Stroud Water Research Center’s Executive Director, David Arscott, Ph.D., recently spoke with members of the Christina River Basin Task Force on a tour of Hoopes’ farm. Hoopes’ farm is one of several sites Stroud Center scientists studied to determine how well best management practices on farms may protect drinking-water sources from pollution. It was also the first project under drinking-water supplier SUEZ in Delaware’s Watershed Control Plan, a plan that was approved by the Environmental Protection Agency.
