Center for Environment Receives
Nearly $1 Million to Enhance Air Quality Initiative |
The Center for the Environment at Catawba College will receive nearly $1 million from the N.C. Department of Transportation to help educate the region and catalyze efforts to improve air quality. The NCDOT has committed to funding 80 percent of the $1.3 million project. The center must raise the remaining 20 percent.
“We at Catawba College are most pleased and proud to have received this grant from the North Carolina Department of Transportation,” says Dr. Craig Turner, president of Catawba. “Not only does it show the high regard the state has for our Center for the Environment, but it also allows us to make a difference for the people of our region. Dr. John Wear and the staff at the Center for the Environment are excited and anxious to continue their work to improve the air quality in this area.”
