COG’s Chesapeake Bay and Water Resources Policy Committee (CBPC) Paper Competition

The COG’s Chesapeake Bay and Water Resources Policy Committee (CBPC) Paper Competition is open to undergraduate and graduate students! The CBPC is a committee of elected officials and water utilities and their members are seeking to engage with researchers on the intersection of science and policy. A prize of $500 will be awarded to the top paper.

We encourage students to embrace this competition and submit a 5-page paper on a range of topics, including climate resiliency, sustainability, or diversity, equity and inclusion. An illustrative list of topics and details are in the link below. The idea is for students to be concisely present policy recommendations to address a water quality issue, and to have a chance to engage with elected officials. Students are asked to submit their topic of interest by 2/28 and papers are due in late April, so the submissions is fast approaching.
