These partners provide specialized expertise in areas such as climate modeling, mine remediation, toxicology, data analytics, machine learning, human health risk assessment, and laboratory research. This expanded network enhances flexibility and ensures surge capacity for EPA's evolving research needs.

Comprehensive Support Across EPA Research Areas

Under STREAMS V, Battelle and its partners will support EPA in areas including:

• Laboratory, bench scale, and pilot scale studies
• Field operations, site characterization, and environmental monitoring
• Analytical measurement and characterization of chemical and biological contaminants
• Environmental modeling, data management, and decision support tools
• Communications, stakeholder engagement, and technology transfer
  

Battelle's capabilities are supported by extensive laboratory and testing facilities across multiple locations, including specialized environmental, chemical, and biological research assets.
