The Environmental Resource Center (ERC) is a public service organization whose goal is to provide environmental data, news, and information that is relevant to the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana tri-state region. The ERC will foster research and education on regional environmental issues, and will enhance collaboration among citizens, environmental organizations, businesses, agencies, and instituions.
       CECS researchers Dr. Stephen Depoe and Ms. Rhonda Barnes-Kloth serve on the ERC Board. Dr. Depoe serves as Chair of the Community Environmental Calendar Committee, and Ms. Barnes-Kloth chairs the Education Committee.
      Funding for ERC’s operating costs will be raised through grants and contributions from private donors and corporate and government sponsors.
      Dr. Depoe recently received funding from the UC Faculty Development Council to conduct workshops describing how the ERC can be used by University faculty and their students. Over the next several months, CECS will continue to assist ERC with applications for additional funding.
