The Consortium for Research and Education on Emerging
Contaminants (CREEC) is a grass-roots community of world-class scientists
and stakeholders from the Central Rocky Mountain region with a shared
interest in the source, fate, and physiological effects of contaminants
of emerging concern. CREEC consists not only of scientists at the local,
University, State, and Federal level, but also has active participation
from regional stakeholders including regulators, policy makers, public
health workers, drinking water providers, wastewater-treatment providers,
and concerned citizens. Together CREEC has broad expertise in hydrology,
aquatic biology, environmental geochemistry, analytical chemistry, wastewater-
and drinking-water treatment technology, wildlife toxicology, environmental
policy and regulation, public education and outreach, and water system
engineering. These groups and individuals have indicated their willingness
to learn more about EC-related issues and how ECs may be impacting their
communities. In fact, many of these scientists and stakeholders are at
the forefront of EC research and education in the United States. CREEC
is a non-profit 501 (c)(3), currently managed through an executive committee,
elected by CREEC members, which is supported by a program committee comprised
of voluntary members.
