	The Reality. Human society has made huge strides forward over the generations. With that progress has come an understanding that practices of the past have impaired our environment. Soil and groundwater compromised by industrial and other chemical wastes are no longer productive environmental or economic assets.
	Our Mission. The mission of the Center for Contaminant Hydrology (CCH) is twofold. First, to develop
	and bring to the market cost-effective means of returning those environmental resources to productive use. Second, to educate future leaders in the field of environmental engineering so that they will have the tools they will need to address future environmental challenges.
	Our Approach. We are focused on solving the real life problems facing property owners and practitioners in the field of Environmental Engineering. We do this by partnering with leaders in these areas to identify and define those problems and by conducting innovative research to address these problems in ways that are both technically AND economically feasible. We then work closely with our partners to move that research from a lab novelty to a mainstream field approach.
