KGAN-TV, Cedar Rapids-Iowa City, has reported on University of Iowa students who are using engineering skills to protect the city of Delhi from unclean water, and make sure years of rebuilding won't go to waste.

The team of UI engineering students were tasked with bringing sustainability to Delhi as a class project. They proposed three different solutions to help reduce waste in three key areas of Delhi. Two systems that could take sewage and filter clean water back into the lake, and a holding tank located behind individual homes to be pumped out once a year, particularly at the end of the summer.
