WATER
Clinton Lake algae adds odd taste to local water
The water in Lawrence may have a strange taste and smell because of an algae compound found in Clinton Lake, said Jeanette Klamm, the utilities program manager for the Lawrence Department of Utilities. Clinton Lake is one of the water sources
for the water treatment division of Lawrence. The water may have an earthy or musty taste, but Klamm said the water meets all health standards and is safe to drink.
The city has started testing and making changes to the water, Klamm said. They have seen improvement after feeding carbon into the water, but they
are still trying to find the best cure.
Klamm said the city is not sure how long it will take to get the water back to normal because it depends on the condition of Clinton Lake, but the city hopes it won't last long.

Students honored for work in geology
DYLAN DERRYBERRY editor@kansan.com
The Kansas Geological Survey awarded five University students with various outstanding achievement awards. The KGS conducts research and studies to better understand the geology of Kansas and works to preserve the state's natural resources. The recipients received $500 cash and certificates.
Brian Platt, a 2012 doctorate graduate from Wayne, N.J., was presented the Lee C. and Darcy Gerhard Field Research Student Award for his work with trace fossils around Scott State Lake in western Kansas.
Mark Villarreal, a graduate student from Corpus Christi Texas, received the William W. Hambleton Student Research Award for his work on techniques for synthesizing the mineral siderite in microbial cultures.
Peter Monshizadeh, a 2012 graduate from Lawrence, received the Jack Dangermond/
Esri Geospatial Technologies Student Award, Monshizadeh scanned numerous topographic maps, then digitally archived them for easier access.
Jerry Gabrie, an industrial design student from Shawnee, KS, received the Norman Plummer Outstanding Student Award. Gabrie transported drilling core samples north of Lawrence, where he prepared them for examination.
Aimee Scheffer, a graduate student from Bennet, Colo., was also presented the Norman Plummer Award for her work testing the safety of storing CO2 underground.
"Obviously [the students] contribute a significant amount to what we do here at KGS," said Annette Delaney, Human Resources Manager for the KGS. "Each of these awards come from KU Endowment, so to be able to have support to recognize the exceptional talents of these students is great."
