Martha Narvaez Co-authors Article in IMPACT Magazine

​Martha Corrozi Narvaez, associate director of the Water Resources Center and policy scientist at the Institute for Public Administration (IPA) co-authored an article titled “Small Wonder, Large Visions,” featured in the American Water Resources Association's May/June Issue of IMPACT magazine. Narvaez and co-author Jennalee Fede (Verdantas) provided readers with insight on efforts to help the state’s water resources remain in pristine condition. The state of Delaware is known as the Small Wonder, a slogan that speaks to its abundance of variety for such a small state. This abundance has been maintained by water resource professionals and researchers who come together through the Delaware Section of AWRA (DEAWRA) to focus on water resource issues in the state and beyond. DEAWRA’s goal is to preserve and protect Delaware’s water resources by ensuring that all related issues and needs are fulfilled. DEAWRA has achieved great success in preserving Delaware’s water resources. Projects include the restoration of the American shad population in the Brandywine River, transforming a contaminated urban site to a multi-faceted community amenity, tracking the spread of COVID-19 through wastewater, ensuring safe drinking water through a lead reduction program, and a number of other projects that have contributed to the betterment of Delaware’s natural landscape. IPA is a research and public service center in the Joseph R. Biden, Jr. School of Public Policy and Administration. ​
