Research
CGS continues to improve the water quality of remote water users by engaging in research into different water treatment approaches. One such approach is in situ removal of secondary contaminants such as iron and manganese, with ongoing proposals in this area in partnership with UW. A promising technique for manganese removal using an ex situ method is currently being developed. CGS also engages in a range of research projects where needed including watershed analyses (for ADFG, to address concerns of salmon, development and resource extraction) and instrument development (such as the CGS FCC-approved antenna and datalogger development projects for salmon PIT tag recording for KBNERR).
