A local creek that runs through UT campus, Waller Creek, currently does not meet Texas surface water standards due to its high turbidity and dangerously high bacteria levels. With the climate crisis exacerbating ecological issues, Waller Creek floods more frequently and aggressively. This project aims to design and implement effective strategies to treat stormwater runoff into Waller Creek
