Description In this short 3 page proposal, layout your concept for your final project. The proposal is worth 25 points. The idea here is that you will pick up a topical area relating to environmental science/sustainability and gather information about it. You can consider the Final individual project as the review of an environmental issue of concern and the proposal is the stepping stone that helps you to identify a topic and become familiar with it by researching the background, problems associated with the environmental issue of concern as well as possible improvements and recommendations to ameliorate the situation. In the final paper, you will further utilize this information to critically analyze the issue. In other words, the proposal will serve as a foundation for your final project. This final project would be similar to your group project. However, You will be working on it independently instead of working in a group and this will be a written submission instead of an oral presentation. So You can think of this proposal as an outline that helps you to get information that will help you to build the final project further down the line. You can pick up a topical area that we have discussed in class and comes under the purview of environmental science/sustainability. The topic should broadly relate to sustainability and should be of environmental concern. The topic should not be same as your group project. A list of topics is included at the end. General Expectations Create an outline or draft of your project. Feedback will be provided on your outline/draft that you will then use to make your final project. Quotations are not allowed in the proposal or final project. All information from sources must be rephrased in your own words.

Description In this week’s lab, you learned all about water quality, from major sources and types of pollution to methods of field assessment using benthic macroinvertebrates and chemical tests. Together, we completed an initial assessment of water quality in White Oak Creek. Now it is time to research your own local watershed. Step 1: To prepare for your assignment, Ensure you have completed the Water Quality Monitoring virtual lab. Begin by visiting the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s webpage How’s My WaterwayLinks to an external site., and follow these steps: Read over the main page to familiarize yourself with the site. Move your cursor to the “How’s My Waterway?” widget on the page and type in your current home address. (If that does not work for any reason, or if you are currently stationed overseas, just choose a previous home address or the home address of a family member for this assignment.) Click the Go button. In the page that appears, you will see a map that includes a region surrounded by a dashed line. That shows your local watershed. To find the name of the watershed, hover before the list of water bodies next to the map. Your watershed’s name will be italicized. Now, use the website to research your watershed. Find the stream, pond, or other water body closest to your home that is marked by different colors. If the closest water body is unmarked, follow it downstream to the first section that is marked. Is your closest water body good, impaired, or condition unknown? If it is impaired, click on it, and a box will appear with more information. For what uses is it impaired? For more details about that use, click on the listed uses for their definitions, and click on the lighter i in the darker circle for more details about that particular use. The box may also include information about the sources of impairment. You can click on their labels to read more about them, including a definition and what you can do to help with that issue. Finally, at the bottom of the box, you will see this option: View Waterbody Report. Click on the hyperlink to get further details about this water body, including plans in place to protect or restore water quality (click on any hyperlinks to view these plans). Record all the pertinent information in your notes; you will use this to write up your report. Step 2: Next, follow your local water body downstream until it joins the biggest stream or river in your watershed—the main river into which all the other tributaries flow. (If your local stream flows into a lake, use that instead. If your local water body is a small pond or lake, zoom out to find the closest large lake in your area instead.) Click on that larger river or lake to pull up the same information as you did for your nearest water body, above. Record all pertinent information in your notes. Step 3: Finally, see what else you can learn about your watershed online. Using the name of your major river or lake, do an internet search for “[name or river or lake] water quality”. You might also go to Google News and do the same search there. Maybe your river or lake has been in the news either due to cleanup efforts or because of new contamination events. Finally, try an internet search for “[name of river or lake] organizations.” Are there any nonprofit groups working to protect your watershed? If so, what are their names, what do they do, and how might volunteers get involved? Write Now, you are ready to write your Watershed Status Report. In your essay, Describe your watershed. Name your watershed. State where the watershed is located in the United States. Discuss what the water quality is like for the closest water body to your home. Make sure to include all the details shared in the preparation section. Describe what the water quality is for the largest river or lake in or near your watershed. Make sure to include all the details shared in the preparation section. Explain your overall assessment of the water quality in your watershed. Explain any plans and steps that are needed to protect the water quality in your watershed. Discuss what plans have been put in place to protect or restore water quality for your local water body and the watershed. Summarize what additional steps you think should be taken to address any water quality impairments present in your watershed. Provide information about any organizations active in your watershed working to safeguard local water quality, including what they do and how volunteers can get involved. Discuss the latest news stories, if any, about the health of your watershed. You will submit two documents to Waypoint. One should be your completed Lab Worksheet and the other should be your Water Quality Monitoring Laboratory essay. Together these two documents are worth 5% of your class grade.

Click on the White Oak Creek segment next to Hamilton Road. What does it reveal? Is this information surprising? Why or why not?)

Description There are three steps to prepare for this assignment: Step 1: Identify your ecoregion. Ecoregions are large areas containing multiple ecosystems. Using the Level III ecoregions mapLinks to an external site., locate your local ecoregion by color or number. If you are currently overseas, choose an ecoregion that you have lived in or visited previously. If you live in an ecoregion that was once dominated by the longleaf pine, consider selecting an adjacent ecoregion instead. Step 2: Research your ecoregion. Using the Omernik Level Three Ecoregions of the USLinks to an external site. page, locate your ecoregion in the alphabetical list partway down the page; click More to reveal more of the list. Click on the name of your ecoregion to access descriptive information about it. Take some notes (see the bullet points explaining what to include in your essay for ideas for your notes). This is only a starting point. You will want to do additional internet research about that ecoregion and locate other credible sources or search in the holdings of the UAGC Library. Step 3: Locate information online about an ongoing ecosystem restoration project within your ecoregion. Find a project using an internet search engine; you might search by ecoregion name, or by other geographic label such as a nearby city, river, forest, and so on. Consider the following about your project: Who owns the land or is leading the restoration work? What is involved? What is the anticipated outcome of the project? Where exactly is the site? (If possible, include a locator map in your paper.) When will the restoration likely be completed? Why is the restoration being done? How is the project being carried out? Finally, is there a way that residents of the area can help? If so, how? Write Now, you are ready to write a paper about ecosystem restoration where you live. In your essay, Describe your ecoregion and its characteristics. Be sure to address the following: What is the name of your ecoregion, and why does it have that name? Where is the ecoregion located? What is or are the major ecosystem type(s) within that ecoregion? What is the topography of the ecoregion? Flat? Rolling hills? Mountainous? What are the major land uses in the ecoregion? Is most of it forested? Farmed? Paved over? How much of the ecoregion is undisturbed habitat? What are a few of the important native species in the ecoregion? Discuss the environmental damage to your ecoregion. Are any threatened or endangered species present in your ecoregion? If so, identify a couple of them and discuss why they have become threatened or endangered. What are the major threats to the ecological health of the ecoregion (e.g., urban sprawl, clearing for agriculture, water pollution, etc.)? Provide specific examples of how these threats have impacted your ecoregion. For example, you might mention how a city in your ecoregion has nearly doubled in size due to sprawl and population growth in the last decade. Or you might note how a common water pollution issue in your ecoregion is fertilizer runoff from corn and soybean production. Summarize the restoration project you found; in your summary, be sure to cover these questions: Who (what organizations, government entities, etc.) is overseeing the project? Where is the project taking place? What does the project entail? Detail the restoration process goal. How is the project being carried out? (What are the major steps involved?) When will the project be completed? Does the project accept community volunteers? If so, how can the volunteers help? You will submit two documents to Waypoint. One should be your completed Lab Worksheet and the other should be your Local Ecosystem Restoration essay. Together these two documents are worth 5% of your class grade.
