Grants: The first quarter FY08 extramural funding report shows Political Science accounting for grants totaling $1,439,408, 10.1% of total Kent State University grants received. Congratulations to John Hoornbeek and the Center for Public Administration and Public Policy (CPAPP) and Bill McIntyre and the OEOC. More recently CPAPP has received notification of a $12,000 grant from the Northeast Ohio Research Consortium (NEORC) to investigate sustainable infrastructure management options in shrinking cities, and will work with the KSU Center for Urban Design (Terry Schwarz, CUD lead) on this effort. CPAPP’s EPA TMDL (total maximum daily load) implementation study required under the U.S. EPA grant is experiencing a higher profile now with the release of an EPA Inspector General report earlier this fall which was critical of the Agency's Office of Water for not having sufficient data on TMDL implementation.
