Welcome

The Connecticut Institute of Water Resources was established in 1965 by the Federal Water Resources Research Act with two primary objectives. The first is to plan, conduct and arrange for competent research in the field of water resources. The second is to cooperate closely with colleges and universities in Connecticut in order to develop a statewide program designed to resolve state and regional water and related land problems.

• Request for Pre-Proposals: USGS 104B FY 2009-2010: The Connecticut Institute of Water Resources invites the faculty of all Connecticut colleges and universities, to submit proposals for freshwater related research on problems of importance to Connecticut and the Northeast Region. Grants may be used to support either undergraduate or graduate level research projects. This program is funded by a grant to the Institute from the U.S. Department of Interior, U.S. Geological Survey, as part of the National Water Resources Institute Program.

• Water Testing: The University of Connecticut does not do free water testing for homeowners. A list of state certified labs, by town, can be found on the Department of Public Health's web site at: http://www.dph.state.ct.us/BRS/Environmental_Lab/environmental_laboratory.htm
