Environmental Engineering Environmental Engineering Burnett Creek H2Officers Groundwater Detectives
Environmental Engineering Environmental Engineering A factory in Pawnee, IN has leaked barrels of Purdueium into the ground. You work for an environmental engineering firm who was hired by Councilwoman Leslie Knope to assess & remediate the damage.
Environmental Engineering Environmental Engineering Part 1: Determine where the contaminant is headed Purdueium has a low pH, so contaminated water will likely have a low pH Acidic Neutral Basic
