Department of Chemistry and Life Science faculty led cadets on tours of the water treatment plant near Lusk Reservoir. The water treatment plant shows a real-life application of concepts discussed in the classroom and labs. Water hardness, chlorine degradation, filtration, and turbidity were all discussed. The cadets were very appreciative of the water treatment plant operators who shoveled a path through the snow for them and demonstrated back-flushing the sand and gravel filters.
