Grantee Research Project Results

National Priorities: Evaluation of Pollutants in Biosolids

EPA awarded $5,976,976 in funding to four institutions for research to support states, municipalities, and utilities in determining the potential risks to human health and the environment from pollutants found in biosolids, also known as treated sewage sludge. Results from this research may inform the development of standards and policies for biosolids management.
