What is the DWRC?
The DWRC is a member of the National Institutes of Water Resources (NIWR)
- a national network of 54 state water resources research institutes
affiliated with and sponsored by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS).
We have been a part of the University of Delaware since 1965 and are
located today in the University of Delawares College of Agriculture
and Natural Resources. We receive funding from USGS through Section
104 of the Water Resources Research Act of 1984. These funds support
our efforts to work actively with other universities, agencies and organizations
in Delaware to develop a statewide program designed to resolve state
and regional water related problems.
