Undergraduate Research

Project Description

This project was done in collaboration with Assistant Professor of Landscape Architecture at UNL, Salvador Lindquist. This research studies the effect of lead pollution in Omaha, NE through a comparative study of similar Superfund sites in the United States and proposes an alternative framework that moves beyond simply restorative methods of remediation by providing proactive solutions to improving these conditions of significantly impacted urban areas. By doing so, this project closely investigates the relationships between Superfund sites, impacted communities, and affected infrastructures.
