Communities of Practice webinar (EPA Research). (Computation Toxicology Communities of Practice Webinar) People get together to discuss how to evaluate the safety of chemicals (EPA Research). Toxicology is the science of nature and how poisons and other chemicals can negatively impact it (Research). Their solutions to help the environment make sure the water supply is clean and abundant to support humans and aquatic species. The Small Systems webinar concerns the safety of water and how it can impact the environment (EPA Research). “Through innovative science and engineering, cost-effective, sustainable solutions to the 21st century complex water issues are being developed” (EPA Research). Disinfectant residuals allow the “EPA to communicate directly with state personal and other small drinking water systems professionals, which allows EPA to provide training and foster collaboration and dissemination of information” (Small Systems). “This provides state agencies with the information and resources they need to communicate the latest scientific advancements and current guidance to their small systems” (Small Systems). They also plan on aiding the protection of Tribal water in
