On June 11, robot enthusiasts joined LFWA to learn about our autonomous water quality testing robot project. A talk on the development of the robots by John Crupi, Kick Robotics, was followed by an onsite demonstration of the robots in action.
LFWA Receives Grants for Stormwater Management and Robots!
Little Falls Watershed Alliances is honored to be the recipient of two grants from the Montgomery County Watershed Restoration and Outreach Grant Program. One $33,000 grant will fund permeable pavement for the Overlook community pool to manage stormwater run-off that is causing considerable erosion and other problems in the Little Falls Stream Valley Park. A second $30,000 grant is for an innovative water quality monitoring project using autonomous environmental robots.
